Happened upon your question just now. Not surprising. It's an engine thing, mate.

The same way Englishmen wind up on U.S. question strings. You can tell by word usage and phraseology. The home page set is somewhat different, also.

At first I thought Uk/Ireland didn't have a Q&A forum. Your question just now is on the U.S. question string.

( No, I'm in the U.S., California. Wouldn't recommend it, and I'm heading north of here. I was just scrolling. )

Be patient. It's a computer. Not the effolgence! Hope this helps.

Only trying to help dude, we know you English folk dont have the technology to answer some of the'high tech' questions, like how does a light bulb work!
But England is a very cute little ol' place its just stuff like that morris dance with the bells of your hats, that you do in your night clubs and all over the spot that lets it down!!

Here here! We do not want contributions from over the water, the replies are usually infantile, unintelligible and in baby English. Yahoo, please restrict U..K. & Ireland questions to these Islands. The grown ups don't want the babies let in ruining the fun.

Sounds like it's a problem with Yahoo!Answers, not Americans.

What do you mean I'm American? How can you know? I'm sitting on top of Big Ben as of this moment, eating...(what do we eat here in England?)...ok, I'm drinking tea. I'm British, I tell you; don't you realize that?--I mean...realise that? I love the UK--especially Bastille Day. And saying "gaol" instead how those silly Americans spell it "jail"--and I laugh at the funny way they pronounce "aluminum" too. Everybuddy knows it's "aluminium." I'm British, from A to Z....

...I mean, zed.

Oh, and the funny way Americans corrupted our nice phrase: "I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole." They say--can you believe it?--"I wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot pole." How improper.

Barbarians. They're all mad, I tell you. And in Texas, I heard a dude say--I mean...I overheard a bloke say, "It's raining like a cow pissing on a rock," instead of our more civilised, "It's bloody raining like water coming down on the cunting land."

And they're savages too. The other day, my supposed American friend punched me on the nose when I innocently quipped, "I'll go knock up your girlfriend tomorrow." (He seemed to think I meant that I was going to have sex with her. I had to explain to him that in England "knock up" simply means to knock on the door.) Then he punched me again. He said, "Why are you going to knock up my girlfriend's door anyway?"

Savages, I tell you. Okay, I have to climb down now. It's getting dark...

What's that? What do you say? If I'm rilly British, then what's my favorite football team?

Oh, I don't like sports; I think they're all good sports. I did root for England in the World Cup, though. Bekham looked nice in his sweater. But as for comparing our great football with American football, I'm not going to get into that; I wouldn't touch that with a ten-foot pole...I mean, barge pole.

Uhhh, Robert S: "estupidos" in Spanish has an "e" in front of it.

I learned Spanish at Oxford, after learning Pig Latin, Brazilian, Australian, woodshop and English at Cambridge.

Oh, you want the translation of what Robert said in English? Ok...

"Son[s] of the f___d one, people of the UK..." [By the way, Robert, UK is 'el Reino Unido de Gran Bretaña e Irlanda del Norte'--or simply, el 'Reino Unido,' in Spanish--they don't use English abbreviations]..."they are __holes and stupids."

That's not me, people...I'm just quoting.

I'm british, but I think you're being a bit rude. What does it matter who answers. Do you always make sure that you don't answer American questions? We all think alike really. Chill.

Hey brainbombuk, do you really think the "master race" would have more citizens killed by vending machines each year than were killed in the Gulf War?
