An insult from an American railed at a British person for often trivial matters such as not conforming to their spellings, such as "colour/color". This is done without taking into consideration that the American spelling is just a regional variation, and that the British can't be incorrect because it is the land where the English language was conceived and the first people to speak it.

Get the limey bastard mug.Having lived in both Great Britain and in the United States, AND being educated reasonabley well, I believe that the word Limey is best defined as simply a slang term to refer to British citizens. As for all the slush slinging between anti-americans and anti-brits: I find both nations have in common the general hatred by much of the rest of the world, primarily because each nation has poked it's unwanted nose into other peoples' business around the globe at various times past and present. Its a mite silly for eithers citizens to chastise the other. Personally, I like both nations alot, AND find both to contain a liberal helping of poop-heads as well.

Get the Limey Bean mug.Origianally used as an insult for English people. Now no longer an insult (especially in the North and among younger people) thanks to bands such as Hadouken!, who use it in their songs.
