Ah the stereotypes; who are this Mad TV? an American Internet TV thing?... If I had a penny for every time I heard an American try an bad English accent when they find I am from the UK; I would be a rich man, usually the stupid upper class twit accent, e.g. Hugh Grant-esque... I don't know a single person that talks Movie English in the UK!

i know that feeling, do you also get the exact same questions everytime, where are you from? what brought you here? is it the same here as england? followed by the same statement from everyone that asks me these question"iv got alot of irish in me!" :rofl:

All of the above except the Irish statement; although my wife's name literally means Ireland and she has a little Irish in her. I get the additional question of "is that near London?" after the "where you from?" question, I'm from Plymouth which is nowhere near London!

have you tried this to the ladies

"do you have any English in ya?

No?

Do you want some? :twisted: "



Oh no not that classic line :eek::hehe:

Hey Brits can be just as stupid, when I moved up north from Northampton to near Preston, because I spoke posh, all they said was 'Are you from London?' Even though Id never been to London, bless they don't know much else apart from London down South.... but people up that way are thickos

No offense to any Northerners.... just Leylanders ;):hehe:
