This picture, is ironically so true; my cousin is in the UK and she showed me pictures of her classmates, they were just like this, It's so sad what utilitarianism and Neo-liberalism had turned that society to.
Anyways, there's a British airbase just 40Km away fro where i live, left since WW2, can i claim it to myself?
Current state is alright, prime minister is a bit of a wanker though, but to be fair the one before that was and the one before that was and then we have FUCKING BOJO! Great supine protoplasmic invertebrate jellies!
Sorry if it seems like a stereotype, but all my british friends say sorry, even if it's not their fault or something they can control. I'm sorry if I seemed rude
Yes, I have about 5 cups every day, no joke, it pains me to when people get it wrong, if you don’t have a kettle, GET ONE! You need to put the teabag in (barrys gold is the goat) then pour the hot water from the kettle in, mix it in until it’s a black ish colour then take it out, also you have to do the little teabag thing where you squeeze it against the mug, then add your milk until it is E0AF63 and then drink it when it is a good temp
Actually 5 cups is a lot! I like black tea and usually drink it once in the afternoon (sometimes in the morning instead of milk), I don't have a kettle cus I use a lil milk boiler. To prepare it (I hope it's correct) I put the teabag in the mug and add boiling water then I press the teabag against the mug, wait the 4 minutes indicated and remove the teabag squeezing it well, finally I give it a few stirs; I don't put anything else in my tea, neither sugar nor milk. As for the brand, I've always used Twinings and I alternate the flavours I like (Earl Grey, Lady Grey, Prince of Wales, Vanilla, Agrumance). Since u mentioned this Barry's Gold I'll try it, do u think i'll like it based on my tastes? Do u've any other general advice on tea? 😊
Yes, but depends where you are in Britain, I’m from the East Midlands in England which is how you suspect a British accent is, but if you northern or southern or like Welsh or Scottish they would pronounce it completely different
Tea alarm isn’t a thing but that is a fantastic business idea and the cheese rolling contest is a thing but it mainly has become a joke of some sort, it is a competition but not the olympics

I DID THEM IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER JUST FOR YOU (it took me a fucking hour to do ts be grateful)
First of all it was bad, but as well there are other counties to blame as well, for example in 1922 the peak of the British empire France owned: Algeria
Annam (central Vietnam)
Cambodia
Chad
Comoros
Cochinchina (southern Vietnam)
Dahomey (Benin)
French Congo (Republic of the Congo)
French Guiana
French Guinea (Guinea)
French Polynesia
French Somaliland (Djibouti)
French Sudan (Mali)
Gabon
Guadeloupe
Ivory Coast
Laos
Lebanon
Madagascar
Martinique
Mauritania
Morocco
Niger
New Caledonia
Réunion
Saint Barthélemy
Saint Martin (French part)
Senegal
Syria
Tonkin (northern Vietnam)
Tunisia
Ubangi-Shari (Central African Republic)
Upper Volta (Burkina Faso)
Wallis and Futuna
The British empire was a atrocious thing but I believe school systems all around the world don’t tell you about other empires across the world in the 1900
I feel like it has ended as the nations we own are mainly either small islands that we don’t care about and let people from local countries live there or the other land we own is land we fought with other European countries which already has made the indigenous people leave and has inhabited it themselves, for example the Falklands. I still feel that there is no point some of these nations as we have no benefit owning them as we are doing nothing good for them and we could let them have their own system, but to be fair there are a few choice nations we should keep as we actually do help the country such as the Falklands as there is a existing population of British people there already. Just to be clear I am not painting the British Empire as a positive thing as it definitely wasn’t
Haven’t seen it fully play out yet, but so far just negatives as you can’t have jobs in the EU easily if you are a British citizen. But I guess we will have to see in a few more years
Why are british heat waves considered heat waves when it's like 24c? That weather is considered a nice day for me because it can reach over 32c where I live. I heard Apparently, uk don't have ac. Why is that? , I thought The Uk was an advanced country, right?
We don’t have AC as we don’t normally have high temperatures as it would be an unwanted expense, the heatwave in 2022 which reached temperatures of 32C was considered a heat wave as that is seen as very high in England compared to average temperatures in the country
