It's a very small number of public school pupils being utter knobs, there's a good chance they aren't all British either, just attending Winchester or Harrow or whatever. The "Your Filipina" prat is almost certainly from a Gulf State, probably an Emirati.

This sounds like something the BNP would say.

It is not British thing most posh people are like this.

"Speaking of white people, BTW, this movie would be a lot less sympathetic if they made the characters as racist as those people would have been IRL. Kudos on totally whitewashing this region and time period while scoring it mostly with music by black artists."

You're right, there couldn't possibly be anything good in 100 years of culinary history spread amongst four distinct countries.

I went to London Pride today and i saw Sir Ian McKellen and Imelda Staunton. It was so crowded (the amount of people there broke records) but it was amazing to see how diverse it has become.

The "lol English food" thing is so tired, and frankly, provincial.

If you have a medical history from 20 years ago, how does that help you when you're dealing with medical interventions we were unaware of 20 yeas ago. I'm adopted, so this isn't regarding sperm, but what if my bio mom finds out today that she has the beast cancer gene. How the hell would an old history before we…

Do we have to do the Teeth joke every single time there's a story about the UK? Our teeth are fine...

Wow such an original comment.

There is nothing wrong with "english" food.

My brother and I were both adopted in the mid-80's. I was a private adoption while he was a public adoption through the state and his biological parents both filled out an extensive questionnaire that covered family history and even had info about the physical characteristics of the birth parents and grandparents…

I have no idea what you're talking about re:US university being more accessible than in other countries. In my experience it is exactly the opposite (at least vs. European countries anyway). I never understood the discrepancy re: how many in the population traditionally go to university FOR that exact reason.

No it is bad in Canada, it not better than the US.
