I just don’t like the British lifestyle being forced down my throat. They even have an anthem and such. Why can’t they just be quietly British. I don’t rub my non-Britishness on them.
My country, ‘tis of thee; sweet land of liberty, of thee I see.
Damn I miss the age of parody lyrics being the highest form of insult. We should go back to that. (Yes, fellow Americans, that song that literally all of us know is just a trolling parody of “god save the queen” and most people don’t know that which makes it even more funny.)
I'm so stoked to watch this. I loved Rose and Mike, and I'm so excited to have them back. They seem like perfect picks for their roles. Kids should make it extra goofy. I haven't been able to watch any TM for some months, so I'm going to have a lot to catch up on

British is a nationality that encompasses English, Welsh, Scottish and some of Northern Ireland. Why do so many people think British=English?

The comment was so close to being comedy gold by being about people conflating two differenr groups as is often the case with discrimination.
