[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]an older British woman at Tysons butted in when I was paying and was astounded I got out a lot of coupons mailed to me and was like.... 'you have so many coupons! where did you get those?'. Then she stood there next to me and stared as I paid with my coupon and money the whole time as if I was doing something wrong.

And? Do you extrapolate from this that all British people are rude?

This thread is awful - I'm British and offended by it.[/quote]

That's understandable. It's wrong to generalize and stereotype about any nationality, race, or ethnicity. As someone earlier said, we're talking percentages, but no body

That said, here's Brit A.A. Gill on engrained British anti-Americanism: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanityfair.com/culture/2013/07/america-with-love-aa-gill-excerpt/amp. Gill has a whole book (The Angry Isle or something like that) on why he thinks the British are always so angry.

I'm the pp with anti-American Scottish relatives, and I remember Gill because he pretty much nailed my relatives.[/quote]
