What the bloody 'ell are you drunken Brits talking about...

[Von Milash]

when you say stone? 12stone? WTF is that? Why can't you just say the weight in pounds like normal people? Pretty soon you'll be telling everyone how tall you are in "hands high."

[Lion King]

Britains are always known to be, "different". (no offense to any Brits )

Example: They say, "Pardon", more often then, "Excuse me", or, "Huh?".

[Killerqueen]

Why pounds, why not just say kilo's like normal people in europe do :P

(oh, and here, 1 kilo is two pounds, not 2,2 pounds )

Pardon? who the fuck says pardon? The Queen? :P (I hear excuse me/huh/eh/what? a lot more than pardon... but what do I know... I've only lived here all my life... not seen some film with dated upper class english stereotypes... :P)

We were using stones (which is 14 pounds by the way) since before your country was discovered

[AdamGB]

But don't let that bother you... please continue to call that game which mainly involves picking up a ball and carrying it 'Football'... liquid fuel 'gas' and an arse an Ass (aka a donkey... :P)

[AdamGB]

We have no working class either... we all have masnions and the lowest class here is the lower middle class... made up of our butlers... :P

It's the same as every american thinking we all wear wooden clumbs, have a windmill in every garden, all smoke weed, pot and whatever drugs you can think of, and Holland is the capital of the land Amsterdam (well it is actually, exept the rest of the dutch don't want to acknowledge that :P )

[uknick]

Pardon me?

Yea, ever since i came to bournemouth i have learned to say 'Pardon' for some reason.....i used to say 'What bruv?' in London, but i found out saying that to a random stranger is rather unpleasant and rude.

Anyway Von, 14 pounds to a stone...so 12 stone equals 168 pounds

I know...I don't get why other Americans think that. I mean....what about all the chimney sweeps in England? Certainly they can't wear bowler hats and pinstripe suits while cleaning your chimneys.
