The French - and some other stuff (please if you're American, tell me if you think this is funny)

We don't dislike the French, but not for the reasons you might not like them - because they didn't join in a war.  No, no, no.

No we just hate them because they're all better dressed than us and their women are far more sexy and they have edible food.  Oh and their football, I'm sorry, I should say "soccer" team actual has a chance of not being beaten by the Germans in the world cup.

You American's seem to be getting very worked up about gay marriage - that seems to be a big issue here.  Did one of your presidential candidates compare it to marrying a horse? It's not really a big issue in England - gay marriage I mean. What English people really don't like is anyone enjoying themselves. I mean we're not very good at enjoying ourselves, we tend to just drink to much, get into a fight and then either go to casualty - I'm sorry "The Emergency Room" or go and eat really, really spicy Indian food - that's what we do when we try and enjoy ourselves, and it doesn't work mostly, so we don't like other people doing it, especially if they're any good at it.  

So actually we're pretty cool with gay marriage. We have no problem with that at all. We're like - I'm miserable, I'm married - why should they be cruising around have energetic sex with multiple partners guilt-free.  He wants to marry him? Let him. Let him come home from a day at work and be presented with a detailed list of his faults. Let him listen to a twenty minute tirade about how buying the wrong size mayonnaise from the supermarket just shows that "you just don't listen." On the other hand, another thing English people really don't like is cruelty to animals.  So there probably would be an outcry if anybody tried to marry a horse.
