Fuck the lot of you. The great land of Brittania has the greatest set of people in the world. Considering we own at least three quarters of it. A good game of Garden bowls is all we need along with a cup of Earl Grey with lemon and we're all set to tackle any crisis. (Even if it is over by the time we've finished)
Also, in accordance to METALMAIDEN, that could be because Mr. Bean is British.

If you think I'm joking, look at to your left.
If you really wanted, I could speak just like the people out of SF, in fact, I make it a daily requirement of myself. I can also speak cockney as if it were my second language.
Secondly, I am tremendously fond of the fact that American people love the English accent, especially it seems in California. I shall be making haste to get there on a voyage soon one day.
That's all for now chums. Cheerio.

Rule Britannia
a song by Thomas Augustine Arne, 1740
When Britain first at Heav'n's command
Arose from out the azure main;
This was the charter of the land,
And guardian angels sang this strain;
Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves:
Britons never will be slaves.
The nations not so blest as thee,
Shall in their turns to tyrants fall;
While thou shalt flourish great and free,
The dread and envy of them all.
Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves:
Britons never will be slaves.
Still mor majestic shalt thou rise,
More dreadful from each foreign stroke;
As the loud blast that tears the skies,
Serves but to root thy native oak.
Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves:
Britons never will be slaves.
Thee haughty tyrants ne'er shall tame,
All their attempts to bend thee down
Will but arouse thy generous flame;
But work their woe, and thy renown.
Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves:
Britons never will be slaves.
To thee belongs the rural reign;
They cities shall with commerce shine;
All thine shall be the subject main,
And every shore it circles thine.
Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves:
Britons never will be slaves.
The Muses, still with freedom found,
Shall to thy happy coast repair;
Blest Isle! With matchless beauty crowned,
And manly hearts to juide the fair.
Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves:
Britons never will be slaves.
just to clear up
We British dont have accents we are the original people who speak English.
Common things about us that arent true :
- We sit down for afternoon tea (majority of us anyways...upper cut people do, people in cambridge,eton etc.)
- We go out for picnics in the local park-if u did you'd sit in dog shit.
- Crumpets are a main part of our diet.
- public school kids are gay.
ALTHOUGH IT IS TRUE THAT WHENEVER THERES A CRISIS OR SOMETHIGN BAD HAPPENS WE DO PUT THE KETTLE ON FOR A NICE CUP OF TEA

Jolly good to hear that my fellow soldier of the commonwealth, but that, fear i, may not be enough to drum the good kings way to this young numskull and wait till the tea is drunk to release him. May God bless his wanking soul. Good day my fair people. Damn the Americans all to hell. (Well, only that Bush character. M, is he something)
I am smack dab in the middle of the US. I speak what they call neutral English. I have no regional inflection.
To me "British English" is done somewhere towards the back of the mouth and "Irish/Scottish" type has the hard sounds about 6 inches outside the mouth. It's all about where you make your T's and R's at.

i am english from near manchester way, and i moved to california (wifes american) , and everyone says "your from london right" , and when they try to impersonate me, they sound like cockneys or the queen, i mean britain isnt just london guys, its embarrassingly bad, and they say do i eat crumpets and drink tea? and think it rains every day of the year without fail, and they expect my teeth to be yellow and bent. i mean i love you guys, but some of you have a funny ignorance about britain, im not saying everyone by any strectch of the imagination, but i think its mainly alot of ppl believe all stereotypes to be true of everyone, every country has a stereotype attached to it, just the way it is, theyre kind of funny really, imo
Man, i love tea and crumpets.

England BUILT the modern world, its the greatest country in it.
Nebraskan's have an accent. It's kind of a snotty mix of Nor' Daakota and Okielahomian. I had a roommate from Nebraska when I was in the USAF and he swore he didn't have an accent but he did. I can't say much though, being from Oklahoma myself, people automatically deduct 40 IQ points when they here me speak.MaddOps wrote:

Also, thanks Blindfisch!
Sometimes I'm ashamed to be English...
since this are things that AREN'T true, you DO sit down for tea, and you do sit in dog shit because you go out for picnics.Common things about us that arent true :

- Crumpets aren't a main part of our diet.
- Not all public school kids are gay.

So which English accent is the original, isn't there more then one accent there??
German!
Loads of English accents I don't think any of them are the original accent because the English Language Evolved from the translation of a latin book (I forget Which one now. Something to do with gallelo I think). which was then distributed around the country, where the accents already existed, so these accents were just put into use on the new english language. Rather than accents evolving from one true spoken english.cpt.fass1 wrote:
