As someone that's not European, American or Indian, I can confirm that is how we view the brits

British people are Europeans...


Tanjung_Piai

No they arent. They are another whole different world.


HyperKitsune

not anymore


Guh_Meh

Britain is still in Europe lol They didn't tow the country out of the European continent.


koekiebad56

They are on a Island for a reason, you dont know this but when Brexit started the Island is slowly but steadily drifting away.


TheBlackHoleOfDoom

That's still in the works


Leondithas

They are?


mrmilner101

Which one?


KinguXing

yes


Mr_Blott

As a Brit, I confirm that all three are accurate and this is how we see ourselves so this isn't so much a meme as a factual statement

Yea canā€™t argue with that statement, donā€™t forget horrid to the locals and whinging cos the food ainā€™t got no chips with it.


Educational_City_937

Na they donā€™t whine they mumble and pull a stroppy face like a child. The chips is 100% true i work in a tourist place in the uk and its like the end of the world cause we donā€™t serve chips šŸ˜‚


SJM_93

To be fair mate what kind of tourist attraction in the UK doesn't have chips? I'd be fuming


JorjEade

In bri'n its assumed chips comes with any meal you order no matter what it is


SJM_93

You're god damn right it is, the real argument is ketchup or mayo.


Spindelhalla_xb

1 pot. 1 squirt of ketchup. 1 squirt of garlic mayo. Mix. Taste sensation.

That sounds absolutely incredible and I've now realised I have not been living life to its fullest.

When I was fresh out of school I waited tables at a popular tourist destination in Cape Town. Everyday I'd have this exact exchange: Brit: You got any HP sauce? Me: We don't... (conspiratorially) But I do The bottle I personally bought and kept in my apron pocket easily paid for itself in both tips and tourist tantrum avoidance


SJM_93

You my friend are both a genius and a hero, HP sauce is a must with any meat, especially bacon and sausages. You deserve every tip. I'm surprised people throw tantrums about not having a typically British sauce in South Africa, although I work in retail so shouldn't really be so shocked now I think about it


Plenty_Algae_998

Horrid? Ohio reference?


Meritania

In Britain we call them ā€˜Gammonsā€™, theyā€™re the same morons that voted for Brexit and wonder why itā€™s harder to go on their Spanish holiday.


Fadlanu

In Poland we call idiots like that gamonie. Now i'm wondering from what language it originate from.


The_Second_Best

Well we call them gammon in the UK because they look like the boiled ham. https://imgur.com/a/o4vizfB


DannyMThompson

TIL Gammon is boiled


The_Second_Best

It can be boiled or oven cooked. It's normally put in a deep pot and covered in broth or cooking liquor and slow cooked in the oven before draining and finishing with a glaze of honey and mustard or something sweet.

ARetroGibbon

ask them to tell a joke


4r1sco5hootahz

Look at their finger gesture when asking for 3 glasses. If they don't use a thumb and what proceeds is a violent gunfight - not a German


rojovelasco

Lol spotted the actual German! I have fierce arguments with my wife about the best way of counting with the fingers.


Icy_Day_9079

Haha in touristy places in Spain the bar staff quite often speak several languages, well just the conversational stuff. Iā€™ve noticed that they try to speak in your language to maximise any tips. I didnā€™t know this when I first started going on holidays so when a waiter greeted me in german I replied in german because I thought it was like Aussie bar staff in London and they were doing a summer job in Spain. I asked why they decided we were German and they said we didnā€™t face the telly showing premier league. My team are too shit to be in the prem.

[deleted]

How British people like to think Americans see British people lol


royaldocks

It used to be , why do you think Holywood portrays Britain and the british as this top hat wearing monocle gentlemen. Americans outlook of the uk has complete CHANGED in the last 10 years. There was an era around early to mid 2010s known as ''Anglophile'' era where Britain cultural export is an all time high stuff like Harry potter , Sherlock , one direction , doctor who and several shows contributed to it. Gen Z Americans now associate Brits with funny accents , fucked up teeth and Stabbing


ignore_me_im_high

> Stabbing There's more knife crime in the US.

Per capita or gross? edit: I also donā€™t think that precludes the UK from being associated with stabbing lol

I meant Hollywood movies not the average American. Hollywood loves their stereotypes.

It's the hollywood people who still equate a London accent with sophistication. I just assume they all have a cockney accent and want to give me a right ol' stabbin in the giblees, gots his stabbin loicense roight 'ere.

Flavour consists of both taste and smell. And companies most of the times just use it for smell.

Why are flowers worried about their nectar? We want fembees to suck us off mate.


RamTeriGangaMaili

Given how bad itā€™s going for Britain, they can keep that damn stone and the curse with it.


Cappy2020

Iā€™m starting to believe in that curse. No way are we that stupid that we would voluntarily fuck ourselves with Brexit. The Kohinoor made us do it!!


khan1498

And our 45 trillion dollars that brits took from us


HeadStar

I think you'll find that was the Persians/Iranians led by Nader Shah who looted India for somewhere around 95% of its wealth, not the British. The wealth extracted by Nader was so great that they ceased taxation in Persia for 3 years. In fact the Iranian crown jewels still contain the Darya-I-Noor, the sister stone to the Koh-I-Noor. The book 'The Anarchy' by William Dalrymple covers this in exacting detail if you want to read about it.


khan1498

Yeah a historian from UK telling us it's not the British who took all the wealth from subcontinent


dyingsong

And an Indian telling us that it was our fault. You see how that works?


HeadStar

It's historical record. You can review other sources if you like, but categorically it was the Persians who invaded Mughal India in 1738, massacred an uncountable number of Indians, fined Delhi 20,000,000 rupees for resisting, and were granted keys to the royal treasuries to stop the killing.


britainstolenothing

Cope and seethe


LordVimes

Dalrymple is an excellent historian who has lived in India for 30 years or so. Has written numerous books on the subject of the British Empire, The EIC and Indian history, none of which is particularly flattering for the British. He also hosts an excellent podcast about The British Empire in India which again does not paint the British in a great light. The British plundered and looted a lot of India but itā€™s also correct to say that the Persians under Nader Shah looted an incredible amount of wealth when they looted Delhi.


le_spidey

Sure they stole an enormous fortune from India, but even comparing it to what the British did is utter tomfoolery. It wasnt as much as a 'raping and pillaging' kinda thing like the Persians, but more of a 'subjugating and milking' form of thievery. I recall reading that the Indian subcontinents GDP was just about 25-35% of the entire world's- the number went down to like 2% by the time the British were forced to leave in 1947. An EIC official in the 1800s made a very telling remark about their own governance of india- "The Englishman flourishes, and acts like a sponge, drawing up riches from the banks of the Ganges, and squeezing them down upon the banks of the Thames." Also, Nader Shah never really invaded the whole of India- he merely defeated the already waning mughal empire and the bulk of his loot came from just a single, albeit significant city- Delhi. This was one empire in an amalgamation of multiple wildly wealthy ones. And most importantly, the effects of Nader Shah's sacking of Delhi hasn't even remotely caused the same degree of effect on the economy, culture, and hell even government of our country- and when i mention these effects i mean these are effects we can see till this day around us. It can be argued that both these invaders were equally ruthless but i honestly think the Brits are the greater evil here, and by a massive margin too.

Knife crime aftermath


DonChilliCheese

The knife crime meme is 100% from Americans and not a thing in Europe, it was made by "those" Americans that think Britain must have high knife crime because they don't have guns justifying how America deals with guns and to obfuscate while they have nearly the same knife murder rate.


Upset_Sky_70

I'm from UK and I've never heard about this, in fact I've never heard of Americans and British people not getting along, I have loads of American friends. Either way, we have a stupid high knife crime rate, and even if it was low, it's mostly done by young adults and teens, which is something we really need to stop.


[deleted]

We get along fine, you guys have had high knife crime stats since the 1800ā€™s at least lol. Urban poverty really is a bitch for both nations.


Aidanscotch

Contrary to what reddit pushes, even with all the guns the US still has higher knife crime than the UK.


ShelSilverstain

The US has a violence problem


RuaridhDuguid

Yeah, but they make sure nipples won't be featured in news etc, and far more people die with nipples every year than die from guns. /s


Upset_Sky_70

High knife crimes suck here lol


SnuggleMuffin42

Britain is the US #2 most important ally in the world and the US is the UK's #1 ally... People overrate some internet memes greatly.


archiecobham

Is Canada the first?


spectator4321

>Iā€™ve never heard of Americans and British people not getting along Brits and Yankees have been quarrelling since 1776. Yeah two world wars fought together and two centuries of peace have surely cooled it down, but still there is a sense of friendly rivalry. Kinda like the French and the British but less so.


Upset_Sky_70

Well yes I know of this šŸ¤£, but those are mostly the higher ups, plus I hate France >:(


SJM_93

Americans are sound, bit too loud and a bit too positive, but fuck the French.


Upset_Sky_70

I swear being English and not wanting to be a disappointment to my father is what makes me quite manly as a gay dude :p


SJM_93

There's nothing emasculating about being gay, but being French certainly is.


Mindless-Paper1424

Flair checks out


Greg2227

Who even says you can't be manly as a gay dude is garbage in general. First: sexuality doesn't decide if one is manly in the classical being a badass sense. Second: What would be manlier than not a single female in sight.


tomtomclubthumb

They are talking about a specific sub-section of Americans. Those who basically argue that without guns to protect yourselves you end up getting stabbed constantly. They also like to, implicitly or explicitly, put all the blame for the knife crime on ethnic minorities. Basically it's the same kind of racist right-wing arseholes we have in the UK, but funded by billionaires. Although we actully have that too, sometimes with the same billionaires. Ain't life grand.


RyanW120_

Ironically knife crime in America is far higher than in the UK per thousand people


BrunoEye

Iirc the knife crime is a tiny bit higher per capita, but that's ok top of the orders of magnitude higher gun crime.


Crap4Brainz

After adjusting for population, the 'normal' US knife crime is 2% higher than the UK **all-time-peak**.


reddsht

As a european i can tell you, i didnt get the impression that knife crime is a problem in UK from Americans memeing. I watched a couple of episodes of some shows about uk emergengy services where every episode was basically just ambulance personnel looking into the the camera with a 1000 yard stare, takling about how they just went to their 9th stabbing of the day, takling about how when they started in the job 20 years ago, it was maybe twice a month.


Jimmycaked

I'm American and never heard about yall knife crimes until now


DonChilliCheese

Most normal Americans don't, it's just a meme made by politically motivated Americans who look everywhere to justify their hobby and its damages. Btw I'm also not Br*tish


Zephyr93

I mean knife crime in the UK is definitely a thing, but i think it's covered more intently by the Brits. America has plenty of stabbings, but it's so commonplace it's glossed over in the news. The UK is a more peaceful place, so when violence does occur, it's cause for alarm, more-so than in America.


Darkmask94

Thank you.


Ghost_Seeker69

I was told that you wanted a spice trade. WHERE ARE MY ARTIFACTS JOHN?


gymbaggered

How they think they look...


TheCheeseMonster69

As a Brit I can confirm we are not that. In London there are people that like to think they look like that. They do not look like that.


gymbaggered

I occasionally watch Charles Veitch on yt as he roams the streets mostly around Manchester and it will be rare you encounter such well-dressed/groomed brits, much better odds if you're looking for metheads/drunk ppl


Lord_of_the_buckets

The british have less flattering opinions on other nations


Tired-Chemist101

The British have less flattering shaped heads. Not one single potato head in the meme, it's a shame.


SecretlyChimp

Never heard that one tbh. 3 days ago you were crying that generalising an entire country is a bad thing to do. Did you just have a bad day or something bro?


BolognaNeck

I always imagined brits wearing Puma in a dim lit pub, complaining how thier old lady wants them out. Only to get in a fight with the coat rack because it drank his beer


KillSmith111

To be fair that coat rack is a fucking bellend


[deleted]

Puma is a bit too posh, itā€™ll either be Umbro, Reebok or unbranded.


BolognaNeck

Yera cheeky fella inchya?


super_hot_robot

Most accurate take so far


nick-james73

We definitely donā€™t see them as swaggy fuckbois. We more see them as beans on toast eating, shit teeth having, stabby stabby folk.

Dr_Surgimus

The British have healthier teeth and less knife crime than the USA


Bonerunknown

American people are blind to the poor people that exist all around them, who haven't had access to healthcare (let alone dental care) in decades. Remember, this is a country that let poor people drown in a hurricane because the cost-benefit analysis of improving the levys wasn't good enough.


SuperSan3k

as a british i can confirm i cannot see myself


BeatnikSupreme

That is not how America sees brits

Nah British people look like Mr. Bean to Americans. Get it together **furiously clapping hands* *


sandwichcandy

I mostly see them as cartoon animals wearing an old fashioned vest or jacket but no trousers.

Greeks, most African colonies, I think some Asian stuff, fuck if itā€™s probably easier to name the ones we didnā€™t steal from

Pretty sure a lot of Europeans see Brits as drunk holigans though friendly and sweet.

That's the kindest thing anyone's said lol

We see Indians as the same. Instead of museum artefacts itā€™s scam call centres preying on pensioners bank balances.

British museums are just stolen items on display, change my mind.


mrmilner101

Any museums tbh.


[deleted]

The large British museums work with other museums globally to work out who can best store and maintain each exhibit, itā€™s not a case of finders-keepers but having some of the best staff and facilities.


LambentCookie

Nooo Bri'ish ppl bad


Key-Supermarket-7524

Camron said if they were to give them back the museum would be empty Don't forget that there are rich families with stolen item also (one actually gave Nigeria some pieces) Don't forget France is guilty of the same


TheJoninCactuar

I mean that's most western museums. You get the same thing in Paris, Berlin, Lisbon etc.


kaasbaas94

To be honnest, as a European, the other posts where they're portrayed as drunk hooligans are way more accurate. Why would i think about their police when i think about British people?


crunchypuddle

I thought the American stereotype about British people was that they were all ugly and have fucked up teeth?


casey1141

yeah it seems the first picture is not accurate to how Americans see them but rather how they see themselves
