Get the Become British ay? mug.Clearly there are people reading this who dislike the British. I would have to say that I myself am English, and always ensure that I discern between England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
I have good teeth (though the NHS dentistry is a bit of a running joke these days)
I'm not gay, but neither am I homophobic, and infact have several gay friends (who I am not, by the way, completely paranoid about to the point where I stand with my back to the wall every time I meet them).
I think one of the most important characteristics of the British is our ability to not take ourselves too seriously.
I laugh at some of the comments on here; yes I am sure we often give off the "higher than thou" vibe, and I can see why many other cultures would resent us, and yes we have "mingers" just like everyone else. But water off a ducks back guys!
The way I see it, we know we're damn good, we just don't feel the need to show off :-)

Get the Behaving British mug.by Pillowpantsjoe September 16, 2011
Get the British Columbia mug.1.79069 times better than american shit money (as of date of posting), and has never been less than 1.65 times better. Dollars will never be anywhere near as strong (The euro neither)
I shoved my british shit money down uncle sams' throat and forced him to kiss the Union Jack on my arse while subsequently allowing employees of american owned companies to steal from the vaults so it makes it LOOK as if Britain is not as rich as the united states. Can't tell them the truth though, it'll hurt the egos of the poor yanks who think thier economy is an olympic torch

Get the british shit money mug.We British have an obsession about talking about the weather, It's never good enough for us. It's either too cold in winter, too hot in summer, too wet in spring or it's too windy in autumn. The weather is strange in britian, the weather woman/man on tv is rarely ever right... he's/she's only right when he/she says the snow will melt by tuesday.
But then again, thats when it snows....
The British public has a voice which is usually heard, and usually criticizing the government. We are very bad at choosing prime ministers every time they get progressively worse at running the country.
We like the Americans in general because they give us such good television, such as the simpsons, family guy all the rest. Although, they constantly take the mick out of us, At then end of the day, we like the attention.
Yes we do drink excessive amounts of tea. But not with crumpets or scones, that's so last century. It's biscuits.
The people of britian come in different shapes, sizes colours, religions and we all just about get on... we all share a love a Britian, the landmarks, Her magesty the queen, and of course... a low opinion of the government.
The British sense of humour is a very dry, witty sarcastic one, which some people describe as being the lowest form of humour. We reject this fact and continue using sarcasum on a daily basis.
We also have the BBC yes the only channel which cannot be bothered to have adverts, so they charge us a ridiculous amount each year... and if we don't pay we can't have a tv.... which is arkward.
In general, we like to be different, each city has it's own accent.
The further south you go the posher you sound.
The further north you go the rainier it is. (poor scottland)
We also call our country Great Britain, Although we always have something to complain about.
