No, you don't get to choose. You have to be what you are. You seem like another Englishman to me.
And remember, I am an American, not a German, no matter what anyone says.

If you can pronounce Köttbullar correctly, you are eligible for a non-committal consideration.

You're an educated American, and so you know about some British spelling. You probably watch some British TV on PBS or BBC America.
As for the tea, no one is going to believe that.

Don't give him any illusions. He's as English as you are.

Perfect grammar my ass. How come there's dots above your o?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

At least you are not saying that I am a 14-year-old girl. Or a mental patient.
Seriously, though, I am an American. You can count on that being true, because I will swear it on a Bible. A King James Bible, just like God handed to Moses. So you know I am serious.
