YO.. MY Name is paul i live in liverpool in the uk ...... ring me 07950 348455

No. Scouser.

most assuredly there are better, more effective ways to meet people than that. my number is *singing* 8 6 7 5 3 0 Niiii-i-i-ne and just for the hell of it: 554843 05970 em gnir ..... ku eht ni looprevil ni evil laup si emaN YM .. OY for a fun afternoon pastime, place your monitor infront of a mirror and decode the secret message!

Wait! I figured it out with my Captin Crunch Secret Decoder! I'll be damn! Those things actually work! Oh, yeah, people from the UK suck! So do their cars, their queen and their dead princess! And they can't pronounce the letter 'T' - dumbasses...

JboxR. The people from the UK don't suck ok the cars, the queen and dead Di do, but America can hardly boost with their shit cars and their illiterate president. Although the fact remains WE invented the fucking language so it must be you who is mispronouncing.

JboxR...it's not like DMC is french.

it's a little known fact that the english spoke with what is now thought of as the "american accent" until 1782 - before the paris peace talks in which britain recognized the united state's independence and surrendered british land from the Mississippi River to the Allegheny Mountains to them. king george 3 ("the madman across the water") then ordered that all english citizens would henceforth speak in a snotty, condescending accent - especially to those loutish yanks.

I heard that it was a duchess of some kind, who was good friends with the Lord headmaster of all English public schools, who decided that the R and short A sounds were the ugliest phonemes in the English language, so she got her headmaster friend to teach all school children her preferred pronunciation. It was around the same time you mention. I learned this when I studied Shakespeare in high school. Shakespeare spoke with something close to an American accent.

Hmm the American education system shows its true colours(not colors as many Americans spell it) again.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you can deny the truth.

Hmm,maybe you do have some french in you,why don't you try a yahoo fight room?Then you can put down not just us Americans,but try your luck with some Canadians and Irish or whatever.

Yeah, notice how the Irish accent has the hard R sound? More evidence to support droopy's and my claim.

it's competely true, english doude - the current english accent is a symptom of the the loss of its empire. what spider said sounds like something the british fed the american educational system to hide the truth.

OK a quick test what years did the second world war start and finish?

'39 to '45. it began when britain invaded poland.

Correct dates except it was Nazi Germany who invaded Poland lol.

MIND THE GAP do i need to pull out the Big Bad Book Of British Dentistry?

sure, dmc - that's what you'd LIKE us to think.

If u want but i'll have to start talking about American Presidents(starting with George "Dubbya" Bush) now I know u don't want that.

actually i'd like to see what you know about it. We hear our own perspective (and occasionally a rattling Aussie persepective *emoticon*) enough...I would be interested to see what your impressions are. I thought France invaded Italy.

Well i must say that his first hundred days in charge weren't the best of starts. France invade someone, no chance

george bush is the greatest american president since benjamin franklin.

And i thought most Americans didn't understand sarcasium.

so how goes the empire? between your colonies in india, africa, the new world... you must be doing great! i hear it's like a non-stop BBQ over there.

The fact that there is only one site where cattle are burnt doesn't seem to stop the "intelligent" Americans from thinking they can catch Foot and Mouth.

I really can't work up the patriotism to support DMC today. Besides, I am a committed republican...and no, that has nothing to do with your bunch of blokes who use God like a bloody vibrator on the public clit. Actually, I really don't like the English much. They still have a certain unfounded sense of superiority which goes back to when they did the whole crusade thing. And to add insult to injury, they have my favourite pub in the whole World right in their backyard and that's just not fair.

one of my ancestors on my mom's side was hung as a british loyalist after the american revolution. we've made it a habit to be ant-british ever since.

ha!

"sarcasium". Is that another oddball british spelling? If its an honest spelling, I, of all here, understand. Yeah you would have thought being kicked out of America, India, Australia and finally China they would gain a sense of humility Cat. Go figure

They haven't been kicked out of Australia, sadly. The English Queen is still our head of state. They still get advertising space on our flag. Grrrrr.

but you're up for parole in a couple years. i'm sure eventually they'll leave you alone.

Same as New Zealand. Some bigwig in the council was very upset that Christchurch was going to miss out when the Queen comes visiting whenever the hell she's meant to be coming. I do a good accent tho when I'm drunk. Posh or Scouser. Right then Sorted.

DMC, how is it that you automatically assume I'm from the US? Anyone who's read my postings knows that I reside in Japan... But putting that aside, why is it that some people just can't take a little cri'icism? <g> I simply point out a few (of the many) bad points of being Brittish and you jump all over me like a black labrador (sp?) in heat? I must agree with Cat - the Bri'ish sah'enly 'ave an unfounded sense o' superiori'y. I think they're just sore because they know they are only second rate...

What is it that Monty Python said? "Embarassment - it's all part of growing up and being Brittish..."

Reside? u mean u got out while u still could?

Oh, are you Brittish?

Any one know where I can buy a Brittish flag ring like Ozzy's. I wear an American size 17.
