did you know that 38% of americans could not point to england on a global map?
LOL bruv, I'll whup yer arse in a geography (or Doctor Who) pub quiz, anytime, any place, and in any state of inebriation.
Did you know the population of the US is measured in the 100s of millions?
Did you know that "more is different?"
Did you know we Yanks (respecting our English heritage) politely refer to that low-information 38% as the "legacy of slavery?"
Would you believe I can do a passable Northern (Manchester/Scottish) brogue, Celtic (Welsh/Irish) lilt, and London Cockney?
And I've never spend more than a few hours mucking about Old Blighty, while on layover at Heathrow.
Could you match my range of American accents, which ranges from Deep Southern to (all regions of) Texan, to Californian TV English?
Naw princess, you could never. So rest assured our top 62% is >> than your 100%.
Great trolling though. Keep up the good work, especially on the Dash thread!
Man, your arrogance is a perfect example of the stereotype many foreigners stereotype about us Americans. Nice job, pal. And you know what? American's in general actually don't know jack about what's happening in the world, or even in the States. Don't worry, we know YOU know everything...so I hope you don't take offense personally.
EDIT: being a multi-talent, my portfolio of passable american accents includes (but isn't limited to), noo yawk, deep south, valley girl (I like doing that one) and minnesotan. BTW there's no such thing as a manchester/scottish brogue. Completely different parts of the UK. Just so you know.

Funny how my response to an off-hand remark proving the ignorance of your comment and having you respond with "you're moot" instead of an intelligent response ....
