General / Off-Topic Why The British Flag? Covas Menu

Oh dear - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Berners-Lee as it was the hypertext which allowed the WWW to evolve beyond the constrained computer communication systems developed in the USA. So get it right re the internet at least.

he invented http and the www thanks to the internet the yanks had invented. so?

The only large-scale difference the USA has made to English prevalence world-wide is the prevalence of Hollywood movies and cookie-cutter TV shows. ;)

well, they got chuck norris ...
 
no british speak british america speaks english, the british flag should be on british games

Ooof. If before I wasn't sure, now I know...

You need to solve the problem of the shaved orang utan on your own... and quickly please.

the orang utan is not the problem, but the symptom, and i'm afraid we'll have a bunch of those in europe soon. we already have a few.

the problem is people getting detached and feeling disenfranchised by the status quo. most likely for a reason, so i see no easy fix for that.

So you admit that it IS your fault?

It was coutts.

The lovely Jenner and the even lovelier Mrs Jenner came to the UK earlier this year and stayed with us for a few days.

I presented them with a teapot with the Union Flag on it and some English breakfast Tea, and a comprehensive abject lesson on why the word colour is the correct way to spell it.

Along with the great British institution of binge drinking and bacon butties.

I'm proud to announce I set back diplomatic relations between our two countries at least 200 years.

You should never give tea to foreigners... especially not Americans.
They like it cold and salty (as evidenced by Boston)... and you know how this forum reacts to salt...

My be a Boston thing, never once saw, heard, or encountered that at all. Then again Americans are strange, they cringe at the thought when I get my Eels in liquor at the Pie & Mash shops...
 
...In a separate vein, if you send us May, will you take Trump?[big grin]

I was having a bet with myself who'd be ousted first, and I really thought May was way ahead, but I have to say Trump is coming up fast on the rails...

O Canada!

Indeed. Oh Canada! You should have had British government*, American know-how and French culture, instead you got British know-how, American culture and French government.

* Possibly not so much these days...
