RE: Ask an Englishman.
Why do you not just get rid of the monarchy? It is just silly.

I'm working on it.
I actually agree with you, I like The Queen as well. But fuck the monarchy.

With lemon, of course. Don't drink it myself, but sugar in earl grey is heresy AFAIK. Tongue

Every American I've personally met has been polite to a fault. I really don't know where you're going wrong, but something's fucked up Tongue
I've been an Englishman in New York (and a few other states on occasion) and polite is not the word I'd use. More like fucking obsessed with an English accent, after a few days I was actually trying to whisper my order at the bar to avoid conversation.

Do you like your toast brown on one side? Just asking...

But I understand the obsession with English accents. It goes so far that I have done my best to acquire one even though I've only spent extended amounts of time in the US and rarely in the UK.
