[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump hasn't even bothered to visit GB, our closest ally. Yeah, they're pretty miffed about it. We would be too, honestly.[/quote] America can in London here, actually they don't want him to visit. I'm not finding people to be rude, we moved from D.C. On year ago and have been welcomed. [b]Most rudeness is actually stated ironically, if done well, you should't realize the speaker is being rude at all.[/b] [/quote] The bolded is the worst part about the British rudeness. They throw shade, massive amounts of shade. They don't want to be called out on it and think they are so clever if they do it well so the person they are making a snide remark to doesn't catch onto their rudeness. It's the height of arrogance. This is what we experienced while living in the U.K. a decade ago, and visiting last summer. On multiple occasions, under the guise of being "friendly," we had British people making snide asides about Americans - to our face. They would couch it with a laugh or two, so that it sounded like joking, but it was clear that the undercurrent was extremely derisive. Very off-putting and arrogant, to say the least.
