The odd thing about Americans & sports (I believe) is that you can dedicate your life to it all the way through 'school' and then when you leave, unless you turn pro you never play again. No Sunday league or 5 a-side, you just stop. At least that's what I heard on QI.
Actually there are a ton of different "In-Town" Leagues, in almost every city I've ever lived in. I have quit a few friends who still play in leagues. It's nothing other than for the sport (nothing if you win the championship) but it's still there if you want to play. It's usually just 18+ leagues, sometimes they have an older adults league (30, 35, or 40+) so that the older guys are all relatively in a league with their own skill set.
I noticed this thread has become just a bash Americans thread, but the funny thing is you assholes aren't even account for all the shit YOU guys have wrong. And I can sit here and take stabs at each and every country, but I'm better than that (American's are better than that) - you don't see American's talkin shit about our british brothers, other than your weird accent (which is no disrespect) but you know what I HAVE noticed
UK "Cunt's" are full of jealousy. Always will be. I had a friend that came from UK and he basically put it to me like this about how UK 'Cunts' think:
In America when your neighbor buys a new expensive car, you come outside and see it and say "Wow that's nice, I gotta get me a better paying job so I can get something EVEN NICER"
instead in UK when your neighbor buys a new expensive car, you come outside and see it and say "Wow how did that chump get THAT? He can't afford that car! I wonder what he did to get the money for it!!"
I've heard the expression: More culture in a pot of yogurt to describe them.
Lol what??? America is probably the most cultured country in the world. Between all the different nationalities that come here from all over the world, there is always something festive going on, and it's all over. How can you say we have no culture when our country itself is based off bringing in and allowing a big mixing pot of nationalities? Or how about the fact that all of the popular music you guys listen to in the UK comes from America? That is pure ignorance and shows your immaturity.
English Language - which the Americunts butcher in their squeaky nasaly voices and slack-jawed Southern drawls..
Flag - thieved from British east India flag.
Education - High school, (John) Harvard University (for immigrants only)
Old Imperial units - Mile, yards, inches and shit. In this as in many things, they insist on being different, like some indy faggot in high school.
Building - US Capitol 1850's built by Slaves, ripped off Chris Wren's concrete dome on St Paul's cathedral
They learned freedom from the same people they called savage.
Common Law - English, Trial by Jury - Americunts love a good lawsuit
I'd like to reply to these specifically since I'm at work and can't spend a ton of time on 1 single thread
-Fix your teeth first then you can talk about our "Nasally" "Slack jawed" accent (yes the "Fucked up teeth" epidemic around UK - I know about it) Also as well, that every single country over in the UK has a different accent of english language as well, our is just the most vastly different.
-Flags all share VERY common traits between one another and our flag was created by someone who definitely would NOT have known what the British east india flag looked like. Also moreover, british east india was done by the 1800s.
-Harvard is NOT for immigrants only, not sure where you got that info. That is way off. Some of the most notorious politicians (white) have come from harvard as well as many judges, lawyers, and others. It is one of our top schools, you'd be an idiot to think it was majority anything other than white.
-Our units of measurement bother you? Why do you care what we use?
-The white house was not based off the dome on st pauls, you could say that about any dome shaped building then. And its not true.
-And Americunts love a lawsuit yes. Most of the time its to get things that should rightfully be ours or paid to us for damages that have happened (For example a hospital killed my father- it was wrongful death, and yes it was their fault and he died painfully because of it and yes my mother is suing since they killed the bread winner in our household.) There are people who file frivolously yes, but it's not as common as you may think. They just get a lot of media attention when it does happen.
Also, let's go over some things about the brits that "Aren't so good"
-The extreme amount of alcoholism and binge drinking (you guys have a ton of alco's over there)
-Chavs are becoming the giant whole teenage population (bunch of hoodlums, equivalent to our "Wiggers")
-The extreme amount of alcoholism and binge drinking (yes I know I put this twice)
-Your failing government since no one has any type of personal responsibility over there. Blame the police, political figures, and magestrates but do nothing to fix the problem.
-You misdirected hate (probably fueled by jealousy) at America. I'm not sure why you'd hate American's especially the general consensus on the UK is well likable. You guys hate things about Americans
that have nothing to do with you. Explain to me why our units of measurement bother you? Or why do you care we are fat? We are fat and happy. Not hateful, spiteful, jealous bastards like what I'm seeing from our UK members here.
-Everything is overly expensive and you guys are just as much a consumer country as America is, just a little bit skinnier overall.
Plus there is more (such as the knife violence) that hasn't been mentioned since I don't have time for it.
I'd like to hear some real reasons why UK people hate Americans. Not something fueled by jealousy. Not for things that have nothing to do with you guys. What is it about America that provokes you to talk shit on us so bad? I'd really like to know.
