I am British and whenever I travel to America I have trouble understanding their accent and the phrases they use. I hate to be rude, but they have such thick accents and it makes me batty. Here are just a few things I've heard and don't understand right away, but there are lots more.
Ex: He seems just a quarter short of a buck. ???
Ex: Sorry Ma'am, but the john's out of order. ???
Does anyone else have trouble understanding them?
