[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who also lived in Britain I will tell you what really irritates the British and that's when Americans make snide comments or jokes about [b]teeth or British food being terrible or how America defeated Britain in the Revolutionary War as if they ever cared, or how America saved Britain's ass during WWII while completely ignoring that Britain literally fought the war single handedly for two years before the US joined, or the women are ugly, or that it's still a class ridden society with toffee ruling the roost and cheeky cockneys everywhere, or that the British are still obsessed with empire and imperial decline[/b]. You get the idea. I loved living in Britain and I'm a proud American as well but there's definitely an element of arrogant jingoism that can manifest itself among some Americans and many British have seen that enough times. So if you complain about arrogant British people sneering at Americans, remember it goes both ways. [/quote]

Is any of that untrue?  No.

By far the worst snide remarks come from the British about Americans.
