Usualy yes, but when I'm wrong I don't know that I am wrong. There are give aways though, like when the answer starts with, "Hell No" or, ends with 'lol'. What the hell is that all about.
On balance I think that the yanks are nicer to us than we are to them. Anyway, I like the yanks.

I am dubious. I propose you record the nationalities of each respondent in the Additional Details.

Sometimes you can tell by the language that is used or the spelling of words but sometimes you can get mixed messages.
I'm just gonna take my trash down in the elevator, see y'all later.

Yep If they are totally illiterate then they are Americans. If the grammar is OK but the spelling is crap, they are British.
Perfect grammar AND good spelling means they are Welsh

Religious maniacs - US
The overweight objecting to slatings of overweight people - US
The best indication of all....those online at certain times of the day and what they talk about (e.g. dinner now = UK, lunch now = US)

Well yes, but only for two reasons. Firstly, spelling is a give away - Americans say "color" and "math" whereas English people say "colour" and "maths".
Secondly, language. Americans tend to say "I guess" and "such and such is named for..." whereas English people say "I suppose" and "son and so is named after..."
So can you tell which I am then?

Sometimes. I go on the basis the more grammatical errors there are the more likely it is to be an American.
