Amazing displays of ignorance
Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

well what about american accents?
There's new england, yankee, southern, texan, californian, midwestern, bostonian, etc. I used the term in my qotw topic because that's what I meant. I know Gerard Butler has a Scottish accent not a british one. But I couldn't tell you where Patrick Stewart' accent is from. I know it's not Irish, Welsh, or Scottish, so it's British to me. But I can pick out a geordie accent :)

I think it's the confusion
between British and English. He has and English accent, which I accept covers many variations.

On a school trip to Ireland and the UK, I was told by many many people, we are all British not English, but as I type this I realize the ignorance. Like a kick to the head. Forgive me! Please?!????
