"Things I don't particularly enjoy about Britain:

-Some of the words you guys use in British English are kind of stupid, to be honest. I mean, come on, "bobby" for cop? If you said the term "bobby" in the US, either people would think ur talking about a male or a pin. "water closet" or "loo" for bathroom/restroom? what the fuck?

-Gun control.
Guns are tight. Why the fuck did you have to ban them? Maybe if you had concealed carry there wouldn't be so many damn assaults and burglaries and other gunless crimes that are on the rise. Put the criminals at bay.

-Tea
Tea is gross! That's all I'm gonna say. And wtf are crumpets? Are they biscuits or a cookie or what?

-The fact that your House of Commons is pathetic as a governing body. I dunno about the House of Lords, but the House of Commons looks sucky. I watch that shit on C-SPAN, and it seems all the reps do is complain to the Prime Minister, and he responds.

-Unwritten constitution. WTF is this? How do you have a Constitution that is "unwritten"? Does everyone just memorize everything in the Constitution, or is it short so it's easy to be unwritten? Ya know, if you guys had written the Constitution like we and other countries have, you may not be in as many messes as you are now. Write your own Constitution with a bill of rights already! Seal the deal. You've been a constitutional monarchy for 100s of years. You started with the Magna Carter and other documents, but you never actually made an official constitution to finish it. Come on!

-Brits' worshipping of the queen. It disgusts me and other Americans, I'm sure. Hell, she's not even a celebrity. At least in America, certain stupid Americans worship celebrities who actually have talent, such as acting or music. Your queen is just a ceremonial figurehead who makes random public appearances and just happened to succeed her predecessor.

-Universal health care
I don't care how successful your health care system may be or how successful you think it is, a private system still kicks ass. Why would I want the gov't to step in and take total control and make me pay for someone else's care? That's bullshit. Plus, I don't want a long waiting period to get care. Not to mention taxes are probably outrageously high to pay for the healthcare.

-High taxes
No way in hell I'm paying $5/gallon for gas. I'm also not gonna take an income tax rate over 50%. That's absurd."


This guy is hilarious, typical stereotype who doesn't know sod all.

That dude has less than no brain, and he's completely harmless, even though i do agree that England really doesn't need a queen...

My reasoning is that I read about an old/homeless person being thrown out of the back of an ambulance after not being able to pay.

The one problem with nationalized health care is that its state of the art... circa 1970.
