[quote=Anonymous]I'm an American living in London.

Overwhelmingly I find the country a bit dryer but still quite kind and polite. I am particularly fond of British men are more outgoing than American men, especially with kids.

I have had a 1-2 dealings of rudeness that do exceed anything I've experienced in the US. One was a non-native British clerk who was taking a great deal of pleasure being a prick to me and my kids in front of his regular store customers.

The other was an old lady on the bus last week. My 3 year old sat beside her and brushed up against her slightly and she went on about her bad shoulder. I apologized and made she was given plenty of space. But one stop later she started to get up when the bus was still moving and stepped all over my kids (my 7 year old was standing next to me) and pushed me out of the way to get to the door well before the bus stopped. She blatantly ignored me when I told her we were getting off at the same stop, rather seemed pissed that we weren't quick enough to get out of her way.
