Oh I know some English ones unlike australian :P heh

-All English have bad teeth/don't brush their teeth
-English food is nasty/gross
-And the English comedy stuff. Not sure exactly what it is about the comedy I just know there's some stereotype on it.


And uhm.. yep.. those are the only ones that I've heard of.

Excuse me, we do go on holiday :P

My dad takes an umbrella almost everywhere, and when he doesn't, it rains.

But then, he's from Yorkshire...ever seen Monty Python's Meaning of Life?

I have a big nose, but that's from Hungarian genes, and I'm exceedingly SHORT.

Only in polite society, which there's less of than you might think. I assure you what I'd be exclaiming isn't forum-suitable.

You are all rather repressed and quite vocal about it.
Yep
All "soccer" games are started off with a rousing chorus of "God Save the Queen".
FOOTBALL. Thank you. And it's just internationals :P And we're always out of time.

All of your news stations are of bad-80's-educational-video quality.
I wish they were :(
You're quite fond of knickers.
I wear them every day

Of course. My nickname is Igg :P

You'll find that, up North at least, most people's nicknames are either their surname with a 'y' on the end, or er...just their surname.

Ah then you wouldn't count to most people I know as being stereotypically English. Even the most patriotic Scotsman likes spending his holidays in the likes of Cumbria, Northumberland and N. Yorkshire :D Pretty places and great people...just like here ;)



Heh. I'm in Cumbria.

All english ladies exclaim, "Good heavens no!" or "Good lord no!"

There's a generation with the surname bucket who prefer it to be pronouned "Bouquet".

Middle-aged english ladies have a high resonance, ear-piercing voice which they use in their greetings. "Why HELLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOO!!!! How is Jaaaamess?" etc. etc. etc.

The teeth!

On the other hand, English men are supposedly the epitomy of the perfect male... after he's been scrubbed up and dressed in his suit... a balance of masculinity and considerations + sophistication.

My 'auntie' once told me David Beckham is possibly the sexiest man alive... that is until he opens his mouth and starts speaking.

annnnnnnnnd... cricket of course, the gentleman's sport.

This is one funny thread, to those who say the English aren't agressive, perhaps you should go to a football match =;0)

It's quite interesting to see how people imagine us. xP Monocles. Pshaw.

Arrrgh, that's only in the Fens. My cousin says that.

Her: Look at this pencil, it's well cheap!
Me: -dry- Is it well good? :roll:

It's not only in the fens, love.

There was a dog on Eastenders called Wellard- well 'ard. (well hard, see).

They say it up in Cumbria too.

"So it goes like this, you know what I mean ?"

Tall and Blonde

Your only good rugby player is Johnny Wilkinson. And even he is absolute...

Can't play a true game of Rugby (IE : Kicking is not a true game)

Crumpets are part of the staple diet
As are Heinz Beans
Mashed Potatoes however, are inferior :x

Damn is toilet humour...
Sorry, I mean...
Damn is Washroom Humour.
Darn or Jeepers must be used instead.

Yeah, it is.

the_dog_god:
'you know what I mean' is a very irritating suffix that a lot southerners like to use ;)

I don't know why you think that about rugby. Rugby League is a more traditional kind of rugby than Rugby Union.

Him: how're you?

I think you'll find its americans taking u's (and other letters) out of words when they should be there!!

IMO, thats very sensible, when you're tuning in your tv its much easier to choose which channels to program in where!!

Its just sensible! the one day this week i didnt take a brolly into work it rained on me on my way home!! people often go somewhere when its raining, and so have their umbrella, and then its not raining when they leave and they forget it.

I'm English, and in West Yorkshire, where I live. There is almost no such word as sorry, it's soz mate. I will imitate one of my normal MSN conversations as if we were talking our normal dialect.

Bekka(my friend):Ey'up, you alra'te(all-rate)?
Me: Yeah, I'm wicked.
Bekka:Why?
Me: I just went to me(mee) house(ow-s) and me mam and dad said we gettin' a pool

Now, for the 'Proper English' version

Bekka(my friend):Hello, are you okay?
Me:Yes, I feel very good
Bekka:Why?
Me:I just went back to my home and my parents told me that we are getting a swimming pool.

West Yorkshire! Yeah man!

My dad was born in Bradford and brought up in Halifax. I have strong connections there, and my accent is a Cumbrian-Mancunian-West Yorks. hybrid.

(Me dad were born in Bra'ford and braw' up in 'alifax ;))

Watching a cricket match in Yorkshire: "Hit it!" becomes "'i' i'!"

It always rains. Always.

A common nickname is "Guv'nor"

Everyone is polite.
