    Yeah a lot of people get a tad awkward when British people say 'fag' lol. I suppose overhearing a bunch of teenagers saying 'God I need a fag' is slightly alarming for some...

    The first time I heard fag used by british people was on Time Commanders. I watched it on my computer and, my dad just walked in the room, it was kind of awkward

    Its even worse when you get British tourists looking for 'birds' ...

    (Bird : In Greek its slang for penis )


    English abroad is usually met through its American incarnation , as aresult a lot of words to not make sence at first...

    When I was a young lad, I used to like nothing better, when i got home from work, than to get stuck into a couple of faggots
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    "The purpose of a university education for Left / Liberals is to attain all the politically correct attitudes towards minorties, and the financial means to live as far away from them as possible."

    Life gets complicated when a Brit in the US asks if there's any part of the restaurant where he can smoke a fag

    ahahha Doesn't everyone?
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.
