Top 3 List - Like Least about the U.S.
 

Since you started a whinge on Great Britain figured I'd give you guys a go at America. Note that it is ONLY a top 3 list. Please no jokes about "just 3" etc.:D .

Once you get the negatives out, I'll start a Top 3 (yes only 3) like best of U.S., but that will be later.

I shall start:

1.

. . . . . . . . actually better let you guys start. Don't want to sway anybody and NO I didn't even think of noting :D Steeljack or Billcat!:D

1. The stupid accent
2. The language
3. The pathetic way fat people try to sue fast food companies. Get on a diet or go and die quietly in a corner

Re: Top 3 List - Like Least about the U.S.
 

1. The food .. never been a country for haute cuisine, particularly lack of dairy products.

2. Clothes ... old fashioned and frumpy and if you don't wear the t-shirt and denims, forget it.

3. Cigarettes ... even though where you live LancsYorkee grow the stuff.. just don't know how to put a decent fag together.

Not getting into the politics, just the material things.

Will go onto the things I liked now, which outweigh the above. x

can only think of 1 thing i hate not dislike, thats the horrible/ignorant customs officials at differant airports, by the way they were of cuban/latin american origin in miami.

The only thing I dislike about the USA is the time it takes to get there, does that qualify me for a week on 'grandmas' farm Brian.

1. George Bush.

2. The tipping culture and the fact that many waiters/bar people can get quite stroppy if they feel you haven't tipped them enough.

3. American football - incomprehensible and boring.

Re: Top 3 List - Like Least about the U.S.
 

1) Stupid drawn out Accent....

2) OTT' ishness about everything......

3) Stupid Accent........( I know I said that already!!! but it does annoy me):) Oh no!! I will actually pick as NO 3 - the need to say GIRLFRIEND after everything.

Dislikes-

1/ Although most people are genuinely friendly, it does grate when you've had your tenth 'have a nice day' before noon, when you know they are just saying it because they have too.

2/ Politicans who were/are B-list actors, or ex-Mr Universes. At least Glenda Jackson MP has a couple of Oscars under her belt.:D

3/ Modern day Hollywood films.

Re: Top 3 List - Like Least about the U.S.
 

1. I'm not to keen when they strap on a A10.

2. Over the top Politics.

3. Their s****y attitude to anything not American.

Re: Top 3 List - Like Least about the U.S.
 

I'm curious Slinky, which accent annoys you most? We've got quite a few fairly strong ones.

Also, what is OTT'ishness?

Ianto, I'm sure the grandma next door could put you up in her basement. They just finished there house over there.

I'm with Granny here. There are far more things I dislike about Britain in 2006 than America and, to be honest, being British (well, English) I'm not really qualified to judge America anyway.

I'll tell you 3 things I like about America. Very little snobishness; Spaciousness; Hotels that charge by the room and not by the head-count. Oh, and I like American accents too (and there are lots of different ones).
