A hybrid accent where someone sounds half British and half American, usually after binge-watching US or UK channels on YouTube, spending too long on TikTok, or interacting in online games with American or UK players — or after moving to the US or UK and gradually blending accents over time.

Example: During COVID isolation, loads of UK kids started sounding Britus after months of watching American YouTube channels.
Lee: Bruv… I can’t understand what my kids are saying these days. They sound really weird.

Frank: Yeah, mine too. They’re deffo online too much, watching too many American YouTubers. They picked up this new accent called Britus — a mix of both accents, LOL.

Lee: Innit, bruv LOL.

Frank: LOL.

Why so British? 

A truly Epic line from Dark Bakura from YuGiOh: the abridged Series.
to give context for Why so British? : "Am I scaring you? is it the Accent? let me tell you how i got it....

My father was a drinker. One night he went a little crazier than usual so my mummy got the teapot to defend herself. He didn't like that, so he pours boiling hot tea all over her. Then, he comes at me with the teapot and he asks, "Why... so... BRITISH?"

How can the majority of British people be happy living in this stinking shithole? Don't get me wrong, it has some nice scenery and not everyone is to blame, the problem is the utterly backwards leadership.
Why do British people put up with this stinking dump? The sea is infested with human shit, nearly everywhere you go stinks of drugs/weed, feral kids are freely destroying property or harassing people in the street, and you can't hurt somebody's feelings with insults over the internet, or you get arrested for breaking some completely asinine law called Malicious Communications.

Leaders/police can't be bothered to deal with physical crime, but they'll take you away for shooting someone in the heart with the words coming from your mouth or keyboard. Remember that everyone else is allowed to verbally abuse you online even from other countries but you're not allowed to say a word back.

Rowan Atkinson did a great video on Britain's "free speech" problem. Ricky Gervais has made his feelings clear on how pathetic Britain's laws are, and I'm pretty certain John Cleese feels the same way as well. All 3 are pretty intelligent & funny people.

Leaders: Lets allow tons of illegals into the country and eliminate freedom of speech and expression to make the jobs of the police easier.

Utterly backwards country. Destroying itself from the inside out, the word Orwellian comes to mind.
Fucking stupid dump.
