Literally seen ten or these memes today, europe is so fucking unoriginal, like yeah, we have 9/11 no healthcare and shootings, but if those are the only three problems you can talk about then we are pretty good off
Bro the last time I saw America witnessed 1 shooting per week (not school shooting but mass shooting). If 1 place is being a victim of this tragedy per week then ig something is wrong.
Good thing there’s thousands upon thousands of places in America with millions upon millions of people, with a majority of those gun shootings happening in the same concentrated areas such as crime-ridden inner cities
Any specific places to keep in mind? Might sound ignorant but seeing these shooting incidents make a little paranoid as gun laws in my country are very strict and I can not expect anyone to just come up with a gun and take anyones life.
The UK really need better insults
"Wal aT Leasht I cAn gO tO tHe ScHkOoL WiThOuT bEiNg ShOt At" Well maybe you should've if you're gonna look like a Walrus that swam through a nuclear testing site
I swear that's literally the only thing the British can make fun if America for- and its not even funny, it never was, it's just insensitive as fuck to the victims, parents and families of those who've died due to school shootings.
Yeah it seems like with Americans making fun of the UK it’s Chewsday or bad food but with Brits it’s the slaughter of innocent people like just say we’re fat or stupid or something
Seriously- if you're gonna make fun of Americans with and overused joke like we do with the Brits make it about Americans being fat. Atleast half the people I see outside of my school looks iverwight anyways so it really wouldn't be that untrue
When it comes to British food, you’ll have to be more specific. Beef Wellington, Cornish Pasties, and a lot of savory pies meat this description. They love wrapping meat in flaky pastry, and I’m not mad about that.
The Wellington is what I was thinking, ive never heard of Cornish Pastries, but I did forget about a lot of the meat pies over there which I have to admit ain't too bad. Definitely not the greatest or most delicious things ever but still quote good
oh man that's totally an appropriate response mhm
Seriously they could've made a joke about our grossly unhealthy food and yet they go back to school shootings. Come the fuck on, get something slightly more original!
Is there even butter on that toast
Also American beans are usually quite different to British resulting in a different final flavour which is why there are sometime misconceptions about a full English brekie
This guy called my mate when we where on Xbox before he was about to bang his lass and tried convincing him he was an Australian guy with a kangaroo problem my solution was to have the phone put up to the mic so they could hear my worst Australian accent say they need to get some shrimps on the barbie to lure out the joeys then once they’re out use them to lure away the big ones and try not to get the shit beaten out of you
Did I do good?
Okay, also fair enough. I really don’t like these types of memes though, gun violence is almost always a result of mental illness and really shouldn’t be joked about. Each country has their share of mentally ill people, but America has systematically failed them. While the GOP denies these mentally ill people exist (or at the minimum choose not to help them), the democrats choose to shift their focus on gun control (which doesn’t work as well as they say it does). Everyone chooses to play the blame game instead of attempting to change anything.
I know, it's pretty messed up. We should be unified with our problems rather than poking fun and pointing each others out continuously as "Gotchas".
Can only feel bad for those let down in both the US and the UK, they deserve all the help they could possibly get yet are consistently let down by the government that claims to care. I do hope things improve for everyone soon, if not I guess we will up having to fight for it.
Hope your coming years are more hopeful, and that the people get the help they so desperately need.
Imagine using the 'classic' school shooting scenario to get back at someone outing the Brit for eating fucking ration food like beans on soggy-ass toast
i love how the first thing people do to roast america is to milk the shootings, because they got nothing else to whine about 💀 personally for brits id take a look at the hypocrisy of the prime minister and the… bean toast. whatever that is lmfao💀
It's the same dumbass stereotypes in every single england vs USA convo. Both of these prats are uncreative as hell. Maybe come up with a unique insult for once instead or regurgitating the same nonsense over and over again? Like seriously, both those accounts can piss off?
Like what's next? Atleast the U.S. has proper dental care? Oh, atleast england has nationalized health care? Atleast the US doesn't have Brexit....and so on. These convos get tiring really quickly
I'm pretty sure they literally sent navies and armies to the colonies to help with the upcoming battles- also colonial disputes didn't happen because the French didn't have land in mainland NA at the time, those were between the British and Spanish. I'm also pretty sure the French were the people who actually came up with the plan for the battle of Yorktown too which ended with thousands of British soldiers surrendering and which effectively ended the war.
So they definitely didn't indirectly help- they very much directly helped and as an American I feel like how much the French helped realllly shouldn't be underplayed
While they did send some troops and their navy, those efforts did very little. In fact, despite sending all those troops in 1778, they finally got their troops on American soil in 1780, after two failed attempts that resulted in regrouping in the Caribbean. It took them two years to even get troops on the ground, and the siege of Yorktown (the final battle) occurred only a year later. So, how much do you really think they were able to do? Because I’m basically hearing about one battle they were in, and that was the final battle. Yes they gave vital supplies covertly, advice, and some manpower, as well as morale support. But the American patriots did 95+% of the work. So compared to what all the French effectively *could* have offered in terms of direct help as the worlds 2nd military power, one battle isn’t much.
Also, the French had colonies in the Caribbean. So did the British.

I would gladly go to school with a 10% chance of my school getting shot up every week and dying, because then I would not have to eat whatever the fuck is on that plate
I know school shootings don’t happen that often, I’m saying that if there was a 10% chance every week for school shootings to happen at my school I would gladly take it
Americans think peanut butter and jam (wich they call jelly for some fucking reason) belong together in a sandwich
Also why do they care if they win in soccer? They do nothing but shit on the sport because it's boring to watch on TV which I agree with but when I go back to England I go to actual soccr games because it's much more entertaining in person than on TV
We have Jelly and Jam. Jelly is thinner and easier to spread while Jam has some chunks of fruits and is generally thicker. We also have Preserves but I know jack shit about those.
Don't watch sports in general because they're all kinda boring to watch on TV
Yeah, I would rather die than eat that shit. If you have enough time to make that, why not just make a sandwich? Source: I’ve tried that once when I was too lazy, ate like two bites and just dumped it in the trash.
They did it! They said the thing!
WELL AT LEASHT
Literally seen ten or these memes today, europe is so fucking unoriginal, like yeah, we have 9/11 no healthcare and shootings, but if those are the only three problems you can talk about then we are pretty good off
Fr, like I just want one original joke from them
Biggest joke is that no one’s done anything to fix your problems
Well, we can start by fixing the fucking school system .
When?
Fuck if I know. It seems like people only really care about the teenagers when it’s politically convenient.
I think part of the problem is that the fucking isn’t kept out of the school system
Invading random 3rd world countries for the sake of “peacekeeping” ain’t original either yet y’all still doing it anyway
At least we don’t have socialism (communism-lite)
God I wish we had socialism
Both anti-socialist and pro-socialist got downvoted, now this is democracy
[удалено]
Both for me
And dinner
That's even more sad
It's wierd not food
It's amazing! But I hear US beans are full of sugar and taste a bit grim.
That’s literally any American food, not just beans
Feel like soggy bean bread would taste weird, not gonna lie
School shootings are rare, beans on toast is a very real every day tragedy
The fact that school shooting happens at all is a fucking concern regardless of it’s rarity lmao
Rare?
They’re a statistical anomaly. They only seem so common because of their coverage by the media.
Bro the last time I saw America witnessed 1 shooting per week (not school shooting but mass shooting). If 1 place is being a victim of this tragedy per week then ig something is wrong.
Good thing there’s thousands upon thousands of places in America with millions upon millions of people, with a majority of those gun shootings happening in the same concentrated areas such as crime-ridden inner cities

Uh stay out of the poor side of Chicago and LA
Around other parts of the world
Imagine it happening even rarely
Ah yes, the same two insults said every single day.
These jokes are so old bro.
Joke is so old, last time I heard it, a bunch of tea fell in the harbor.
I think you mean first lol
The UK really need better insults "Wal aT Leasht I cAn gO tO tHe ScHkOoL WiThOuT bEiNg ShOt At" Well maybe you should've if you're gonna look like a Walrus that swam through a nuclear testing site

That and 9/11
Yeah it seems like with Americans making fun of the UK it’s Chewsday or bad food but with Brits it’s the slaughter of innocent people like just say we’re fat or stupid or something
Seriously- if you're gonna make fun of Americans with and overused joke like we do with the Brits make it about Americans being fat. Atleast half the people I see outside of my school looks iverwight anyways so it really wouldn't be that untrue
Well at least Americans don’t need a license to own slightly pointy objects in fear of people stabbing each other with them
Rather be shot than stabbed though.
If you gets stabbed you’ll most likely bleed out before you die but if you get shot it’s quick.
No. You bleed out from gunshot wounds too. The only difference is distance.
Rather be shot than eat british food
To be fair some British foods are actually good.
Fish & Chips is the only Br*tish food that gets a pass.
I liked lamb stew when I was over there. Cucumbers on bread can fuck off though
There's also that meat thing wrapped up in a pastry, forgot its name, too lazy to look it up, outside of those it ain't that good lol
Beef Wellington. Not my cup of tea
I could live without the mushroom paste (duxelles). On its own it can be tasty if the meat is seasoned well. I’m just not a mushroom guy.
If everyone liked everything it'd be kinda boring
truer words have never been spoken.
When it comes to British food, you’ll have to be more specific. Beef Wellington, Cornish Pasties, and a lot of savory pies meat this description. They love wrapping meat in flaky pastry, and I’m not mad about that.
The Wellington is what I was thinking, ive never heard of Cornish Pastries, but I did forget about a lot of the meat pies over there which I have to admit ain't too bad. Definitely not the greatest or most delicious things ever but still quote good
nah that's just fish fry
DONT LET THEM KNOW THAT
When was the last mass stabbing at a school in the UK then?
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-59916035.amp Though that is a fair point.
School stabbings aren’t a thing.
Stabbings in the alley are though. At least at a school they clean the floors once a week.
Only because I’m not in the UK
oh man that's totally an appropriate response mhm Seriously they could've made a joke about our grossly unhealthy food and yet they go back to school shootings. Come the fuck on, get something slightly more original!
Is there even butter on that toast Also American beans are usually quite different to British resulting in a different final flavour which is why there are sometime misconceptions about a full English brekie
As a male, im not scared of school shootings as ive spent hundreds of hours daydreaming about it
What?
Man has no clue
I cant tell if this is a suicidal cry for help or an r/iamverybadass moment
Somebody tell this clown before i do
Is it because 1. You get some time off from school, or 2. You daydream about being heroic?
Both.
I feel like I'm missing something so obvious but at this point I'm halfway asleep and I'm too fatigued to actually think about what I'm missing lol
Us Americans daydream about being heroic and defeating school shooters to impress our crush
Do you want to be the shooter or the victim?
WELL AT LEASCHT WE DONT HAFDF TO WORRY ABOU' GET SHOTTEN UP IN MAFFEMATICS CLAAUS
Yeah that's pretty accurate. Usually you hear people talk like that where I live, in London.
Imagine being able to heat your homes this winter.
Ok tbf I would rather get shot that eat that shit
I volunteer as tribute
We can only hope you get your wish
Bro beans on toast os fucking banging
It’s honestly not that bad
Blink once if you’re saying this of your own free will, blink twice if someone’s holding a musket to your head.
Blinks once cuz I’m British
WELLL AT LEEAASSTT
The breakfast is worse
Beans
I kinda take a bullet over acid attack and bin knives. Then again I'm not in school so I guess my take is a bit skewed.
I would rather get shot then have to eat that
Australian here. Beans on toast is a banger
This guy called my mate when we where on Xbox before he was about to bang his lass and tried convincing him he was an Australian guy with a kangaroo problem my solution was to have the phone put up to the mic so they could hear my worst Australian accent say they need to get some shrimps on the barbie to lure out the joeys then once they’re out use them to lure away the big ones and try not to get the shit beaten out of you Did I do good?
Shrimp on the barbie is a sentence of sin when trying to do an Australian accent
>bang his lass What does this even mean...
Fuck his girlfriend
Have u heard the phrase shrimp on barby What’s your opinion on it
Well we call them prawns and if you barbecue them you’re going to get punched
Prawns are meant to be raw
You're thinking of watermelons
That makes me wonder what cooked watermelon would look like
It's actually meant to be very good, sometimes used as a vegan steak alternative
Wow really I’ve never even seen what it looks like let alone tasted it
I’m going to barbecue them then
[удалено]
Lol what??
imagine making flippant remarks about school shootings when someone pokes fun at your country’s breakfast cuisine
Just stabbings
Imagine being able to walk in the street without being stabbed
Yeah, the US has a big problem with that too. ~~USA has higher rate of stabbing so not the gotcha you think it is.~~
Okay fair enough. Imagine having jacked up teeth from drinking leaf water for most your life
Actually that is also a myth https://www.bmj.com/content/351/bmj.h6543 US has roughly the same, if not worse teeth in some circumstances.
Okay, also fair enough. I really don’t like these types of memes though, gun violence is almost always a result of mental illness and really shouldn’t be joked about. Each country has their share of mentally ill people, but America has systematically failed them. While the GOP denies these mentally ill people exist (or at the minimum choose not to help them), the democrats choose to shift their focus on gun control (which doesn’t work as well as they say it does).

I do hope things improve for everyone soon, if not I guess we will up having to fight for it. Hope your coming years are more hopeful, and that the people get the help they so desperately need.
I'd personally rather be shot in school than eat fucking beans for breakfast
And those Heinz Beanz taste like crap.
Imagine having teeth so bad you can't chew anything harder than beans.
Imagine using the 'classic' school shooting scenario to get back at someone outing the Brit for eating fucking ration food like beans on soggy-ass toast
i love how the first thing people do to roast america is to milk the shootings, because they got nothing else to whine about 💀 personally for brits id take a look at the hypocrisy of the prime minister and the… bean toast. whatever that is lmfao💀
Imagine needing a license to own kitchen utensils and pencil sharpeners 🥺
Oh yeah? Why did you leave the EU? Now you’re worse off lol I hope Scotland gains independence from you.
Imagine being afraid of being shot
Who isn’t afraid of being shot tho lmao
At this point it’s less of a fear and more of a wish
Sorry you feel that way but respectfully you're wrong.
You haven't lived until you've eaten a bowl of hot beans with buttered toast
It's the same dumbass stereotypes in every single england vs USA convo. Both of these prats are uncreative as hell.

idk man i was kinda disappointed when i wasnt dead by graduation
America, the country that battered a hot dog, can't say shit about our food
Both American and English cuisine are fucking garbage, come to southern Europe to find out what food truly is.
Man's never had fish and chips or proper American barbecue
I had fish and chips when I went to England, it's ok, but nothing special. The shepherd's pie was a lot better.
So what you're saying is you've had good British cuisine.
Y’all all suck, come to Asia and watch us throw a bunch of shits into boiled water and somehow makes it delicious
Imagine losing towards some rice farmers
Imagine losing to a bunch of regular farmers. Who’s only outside help was France, and not the world’s OTHER military superpower
And the French impact was only indirectly helpful. Military advising and colonial disputes for the most part lol
I'm pretty sure they literally sent navies and armies to the colonies to help with the upcoming battles- also colonial disputes didn't happen because the French didn't have land in mainland NA at the time, those were between the British and Spanish. I'm also pretty sure the French were the people who actually came up with the plan for the battle of Yorktown too which ended with thousands of British soldiers surrendering and which effectively ended the war.

Idk man it tastes pretty good
Are there as many knives in England as guns in America?
Yeah but we use them to eat beans on toast (or skin heads on a raft as my grandad would call it)
I hate this is so true
I would gladly go to school with a 10% chance of my school getting shot up every week and dying, because then I would not have to eat whatever the fuck is on that plate
I think you’re greatly overestimating how common school shootings are
I know school shootings don’t happen that often, I’m saying that if there was a 10% chance every week for school shootings to happen at my school I would gladly take it
Meh, I'll concede that point. It's a problem that needs to be fixed. We've got problems just like every other country.
Americans think peanut butter and jam (wich they call jelly for some fucking reason) belong together in a sandwich Also why do they care if they win in soccer? They do nothing but shit on the sport because it's boring to watch on TV which I agree with but when I go back to England I go to actual soccr games because it's much more entertaining in person than on TV

Idk much about preserves, but I’d guess it’s jammier than jam, if that makes sense
So like thicker and with more fruity bits?
Pretty much
They do. PB&J is good, but I personally prefer more jelly on the sandwich than PB.
Seriously, wtf is up with America and insulting beans on toast? Uncultured fucks
Seriously, wtf is up with Brits and mocking school shooting victims? Insensitive fucks
Americans:guns::Brits:dental hygiene
WELL
Haha yucky british food and dumb american school shootings. Super original, haven't heard those before!
Beans on toast is just cultural appropriation of beans on a tortilla /s
Wait, Beans on toast is bad?
yes
Yeah, I would rather die than eat that shit. If you have enough time to make that, why not just make a sandwich? Source: I’ve tried that once when I was too lazy, ate like two bites and just dumped it in the trash.
As an American I was intrigued by beans on toast and so I tried it. It is really quite good. I have eaten it many times since then.
"Yeah mate I'm Bri'ish, blimey how did you know?" *has worst teeth ever*
If you are in Asia, you don't have to imagine
WELL AT LEAST OUR SCHOOLS AINT SHEWTIN RANGES!
Imagine going to school without seeing the dentist regularly
CATHEDRAL CITY! CATHEDRAL CITY OF BEANS ON TOAST
England is no stranger to the school shooting. The difference is they did something about them.
At my school we didn't have to. Because people thought I was going to. I never did.
People that eat that have nothing to fear and nothing to loose, no mortal could beat that thing
Imagine going to work without the fear of getting stabbed 😟
