one of my dreams is i would like to own an american diner in london.

not all gimmicky like ed's easy diner or anything like that, just a place that sells american diner food in a nice enviroment. i love diners. i love table service. i love free refills on your coffee. i love waitresses on such a low minimum wage they have to be nice to you as they are counting on your tip to be able to feed their children. i love huge burgers and pea soup with bits of frankfurter floating in it.
america is wonderful.

America's full of millions of people

proably..

but ever since family guy ripped on Montey Python I've been extremely bitter about them.

Yeah, there's that one guy....Ray I think his name is.

americans are ace as long as they're inside america.

i've eaten my way across half of the place and they're the nicest, warmest people in the world. there's just some radiation field around the states that instantly turns americans into loud, ghastly crass berks :)

Oh cock off.

I'm tired of casual anti-Americanism.

"They're American, though - so what do you expect?!" *lulz*

FFS. Replace "American" with "Indian" and see what happens.

You can't blame 200 million people because you don't like who runs the show, or the tourist that asked a stupid question.

Sense of humour faliure?

(Peter_G, Wed 25 Feb 2009, 14:56, archived)

Not at all.

Try wandering down Brixton high-road making racist jokes, and tell anyone who objects that they're having a sense of humour failure.

I give you five - no - three minutes.

There is a difference between making a little fun of a race of 300 million people...

on a website and going up to someone in the street and telling a racist joke.

Let's just mock the french then. It's more historical.

Well yes.

In one situation you can go "opinions on the internet lol" and in the other you run a significant risk of getting your head kicked in.

I wouldn't say it was casual anti-Americanism.

If anything I'd say we put a fair amount of effort into it.

I've been there

and outside the major conurbations they are as backward, narrow-minded and insular as... um... Britons

I would agree with you

were it not for the fact that roundabout 49-50 million not only voted for George Bush the first time, but then reelected him!

I can't think of another nation that would do this.

Erm ...

Dint New Labour led by Blair get in twice? Or is it three times now?

Besides which, 50m peeps is, er ... 1/8 the pop.

That's like judging Britain on the behaviour of Scotland.

Yeah, or stereotyping all Scottish people to say that they hate the English oh wait...

(Jeru War and Piss, Wed 25 Feb 2009, 15:06, archived)

they don't hate them

they love them

they love burning them

BURNING

BASTAADS! BURN THEM!!!

You clearly missed the opportunity to start that statement with:

'I have a dream!'

(Jeru War and Piss, Wed 25 Feb 2009, 14:51, archived)

I hate coffee.

Would you do the same with tea?

(

Rev. Cleo still alive, Wed 25 Feb 2009, 14:54, archived)

i can't see why not.

with the added bonus that i, as an englishman know the difference between boiling and boiled water, and do not believe that a tea bag should be reused

(

Unless you make really weak tea each time.

And you're on a very tight budget.

(

Rev. Cleo still alive, Wed 25 Feb 2009, 14:59, archived)

Don't know it it's still there.

But there is/was a great one near Leicester Square. Little place but it even has that old style table top jukebox selector thing with all the old 60's songs.
