Given their inability to spell correctly due to an irrational phobia of the letter U and use of the phrase "I could care less" when they mean "I couldn't care less", Americans have a bloody nerve to knock how British people talk.

Also spelling Lara Croft as LAURA Croft (And even saying it that way!). We even get it in this forum and for the life of me I cannot figure out why.

Don't get me started on this one. For years I thought Americans ate snacks called "Gram Crackers", but it turns out they just can't pronounce "Graham" properly.

Also trying to convince the world that white slop that looks like bird crap is a form of Gravy.

Gravy is brown!

Not this milky vomit shite,

yes, there's one accent in the UK. just one.

fanny.

Indeed. I am constantly saying BOLLLOWUWA. It was up and down the entire UK when I was growing up there. Couldnt go into a chip shop in Belfast without hearing BOLLOWUWA all over the fucking joint.

Funny enough, for the ones who speak like that, there IS only one accent in the whole entire United Kingdom. London first, innnnnnnit.

Some of my favourite phrases are South Derbyshire regional dialect:
Splash - tinned tomatoes on a bacon/sausage sandwich
"I go to the foot of our stairs!" - a point of exclamation
"Up them wooden hills to Bedfordshire" - go to bed

"Ay up" is a go to greeting too

And I spent most of my teen years listening to Mark and Lard so no end of Northern phrases made it into my vocab!
