The bastardisation of the one true language (You speak ENGLISH yet you feel you have to change the spelling of perfectly good words and whatever happened in the deep south????)

I'm sorry LYY, I have this weird inbuilt dislike of America, I'm sure its not absolutely every American but up to now all those I have met have been ignorant, arrogant and so 'false' (PS, I have met quite a few in many locations around the world, ask me about bateaux mouche some day)
Hey entwisi, I certainly understand your feelings . I guess every country has that 10 - 20% of the population that give them a bad reputation. Trust me I've met, and probably been, many of the above.

Heck, I hate to think Accywebbers would think of me as the normal American, I really don't think there is one. (Although I may be the nicest one hahahahaha ) I find the more different people I meet from different cultures/countries the more I can understand and accept the good and the bad character traits.

By the same token, would if I chose the "average" Brit. by using Accywebbers? Care to pick which one of my new found family is the most normal one? Actually, that may be a bit of fun eh?
