Welcome to world friends, Hallie from United States đșđž , hope that it will be a great duo with Cady đŹđ§
First US Southerner. They needed one. They're very different. Although she doesn't have the typical Southern accent.
@@Wiley_Coyote living abroad for a long time can soften your accent a lot, so probably that's why. I also noticed this!
Thank you Henri! đ
I loved how their hair are similar đ©đ»âđŠ°đ©đ»âđŠ°đŹđ§đșđž
The american girl has british heritage
In UK the most popular sport is football , not just in UK , but in most countries in the world is football , US is American Football or Basketball
Baseball/Softball is also big for youth sports. Parents spend a lot on money for their kids to play in select leagues.
baseball is our national sport baseball and softball would be before basketball
"My mom thinks Harry Potter is witchcraft."
You already told us you're from the South.
Time to ban those books! /s
Harry Potter driving conservatives mad:
South US đ€ Latin America
YEP! Wasn't surprised about that lol When she said that, i was like, "Oh wait she grew up in the south". Then she mentioned she's from Alabama.... đ
That was a concern in my Pennsylvania communities too.
But her Accent is neat
Its not - "Y'all This , Y'all That"
she sounds Minnesotian
_but im not american i was just there for 7months_
I went to London recently, from Northern Ireland. There was so much Harry Potter stuff there. This was a real culture shock to me - I had no idea people were still talking about Harry Potter, like when did the last one not come out? Ten years ago?
Ahahahaha, the steak comment had me laughing out loud :P
To be fair to the UK, the Southern US is generally known for and picky about their steak (as long as we are doing stereotypes) so I imagine Hallie getting steak in Britain would be like Cady getting tea in the US.
Alabama is hardly a cattle state, but overall, true.
If I have to think about English food, steaks are definitely not the first thing coming to mind! Maybe roasted meat or stews and the pudding and the desserts or sweets in general.
At least you have Harry Potter. People only ask us about the 'Red Light District' and or the weed lol. Oh, don't forget our wooden shoes.
Those are only Amsterdam stereotypes! I think of windmills, and tulips!!! And educated happy hardworking people who all (95%) speak excellent English !
I also think of very tall men lol
Uk and Harry Potter - đ€đ€·ââïž

another fun and informative video. I always know it's going to be a good one when I see Cady in the thumbnail
Welcome new member đ€đ»
North east uk here; our teens are 50/50 slim trendy kids & jacked kids but adults(25+) here in Newcastle/Teesside are mostly addicted to the gym and mma.
My favorite stereotype of UK đŹđ§ is the tea â , and lately in the video i learned that people from China đšđł love tea the most , is this true ?
Turkey actually consumes the most tea per capita
and south asia .. milk tea with spices .. Chai
Mostly turkey iran and iraq are the most consumers of tea. Don't know about china.
i mean china invented it so...
One of the causes of the collapse of the Qing dynasty was Britain smuggling opium to China because China refused to trade with Britain except with silver.
Food in America hasa lit of fructose corn syrup and nasty additives, that's why adults and kids are so big. Each time i go to Europe without any diet and exercise i lose weight.
They don't have to try it. You can tell unseasoned food by sight.
This video is just so interesting from A to Z. I was so into their story and I hope this duo and Cady long forever in this channelđșđžđŹđ§â„ïž
Omg I love Cady's accent, I can't get over it
yeah! she sounds so soft
@@--julian_ she sounds irishh why tho
@@militorosa8720 its a wools accent that is like a more subtle scouse accent and a scouse accent has come from Irish immigrant plus a couple of other things
@@militorosa8720 what's wrong with sounding Irish? I think she sound nice, the way she pronounces things
@@--julian_ r u stupid? when did i say thats wrong lmao, i love her accent wtf
Great to see someone from the American South! đ One Southern stereotype I dislike is that we are not as smart as other people. The stereotype of hillbilly, bumpkin people who lack even basic knowledge and intelligence. I know plenty of people with super thick Southern accents, grew up âin the sticks,â and all the stereotypical things who are accomplished classical pianists, top-of-their-field scientists and physicians, and pretty much any other âbrainyâ stereotype. A personâs accent or where they live shouldnât make people assume they are unintelligent.
Precisely. And that applies to immigrants as well. People look down on people who struggle speaking English, or have a foreign accent, and little do they know those very people are well educated, doctors, engineers, artists, scientists, etc. It's not easy expressing your thoughts in a language you're not used to speaking/didn't grow up speaking, and people assume you're an idiot because of that. People judge others a lot just by the manner of someone's speaking.
Accent and dialect shouldn't make people think someone is stupid or lower class, but it unfortunately does. I personally try not to buy into it, although statistically people from the Northeast have higher IQs and better education. Even then, people stereotype northeastern accents as dumb or lower class unfortunately.
I heard the stereotype that Brits can drink a lot and even got challenged in pub... I have to admit that Brits got piss drunk but they need just very little alcohol for that... As a Pole that doesn't even drink much, it's pretty funny
Depends where in south
Cady here đŹđ§ you guys in the comments are always so funny! I love hearing what you think of the videos. Did you guys agree with some of these?
I want to go to England đŹđ§
Say bottle of water in British accent

I'm British too and I don't care that people always mention harry potter haha but that's probably cos I love Harry potter
I really like cady's accent!!
Thank you!
"Soccer, for everyone else". Nope. It's football. For instance, all over Latin-America, where the sport is as popular as it is in the UK, we also call it football or, as it's written in Spanish, "fĂștbol". "Soccer" is only in the US.
Same for former soviet countries- football is football- with the round ball. The other one that is called football in the US, is American football for us. I think I've never heard "soccer" in any other language. And I speak a few of them.
Actually, there are several countries (of which Ireland is one) that use the term soccer: United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Japan, South Africa, South Part Of Philippines, and Papua New Guinea.
Also, don't forget that soccer was created by the British, as a shortened version of Associated Football to distinguish it from Rugby Football (ruggers and soccer). Also, soccer is used in a sports show in the UK (Soccer Saturday). So, while the majority of countries use the term "football," many other countries have their own version of football and often use soccer to differentiate it.
@@EricaGamet But as he said, most of the World calls it football.
@@Thurgosh_OG He literally said, âSoccer is only in the U.S.â
Guys I live abroad and I'm a huge sports fan, I'm aware đ Was meant to be a joke.
The feeling the british girl has about Harry Potter stereotype, it's exatcly the same feeling brazillians feel when people say "Do you speak spanish?" (Because we don't. We weren't colonised by Spain, but Portugal), also "Rio de Janeiro it's the capital ?" NO, IT'S NOT THE CAPITAL. It was before once in a time, but not anymore for a long time ago,
And the worst of all: "You don't look like a brazillian." Well, maybe because brazillians are all different from each other.
Brazil it's the 5th biggest coutry in world and we do have people from different origin and culture here, europeans, asian, africans, middle east people. So, don't tell a brazillian "he/she doesn't look like a brazillian" we are one of the most mixed countries as USA and Canada are as well.
NĂŁo sei o resto do mundo, mas muitos americanos realmente acham que nĂłs falamos espanhol, isso ficou bem claro quando fiz intercĂąmbio. Mas nĂŁo os culpo pq todos os nossos vizinhos falam espanhol đ€·ââïž
@@arthurmaestrini4350 Acho que fiz esse comentĂĄrio como um âdesabafoâ, agora eu nem ligo mais.
PaĂses europeus atĂ© sabem mais sobre paĂses da AmĂ©rica do Sul do que americanos, tem um conhecimento de mundo um pouco melhor eu diria.
Eu acabei descobrindo que nos Estados Unidos, eles estudam muito sobre histĂłria Norte-americana na escola, como o EUA surgiu, sobre a independĂȘncia da colonização britĂąnica etc.
Mas do que histĂłria ou geografia internacional, por isso tem esse pensamento sobre outros paĂses.
Por outro lado, isso também faz com que eles sejam até mais nacionalistas que nós brasileiros; isso é algo que eu sinto um pouco de falta no Brasil (tem razÔes pro e contra em ser mais patriota do que somos).
Enfim, na Europa eles estudam um pouco mais sobre outros continentes, mas a maioria definitivamente tem aqueles esteriĂłtipos comuns: Brasil fala espanhol, carnaval, samba, futebol, Rio de Janeiro, praia e sol.

Hallie has the least southern accent Iâve ever heard from someone from Alabama đ
And how many people have you heard from Alabama and what parts of Alabama were they from? Just like MS and LA there is an accent difference from north to south. To me people sound more âcountryâ the further north in those states. The term Lower Alabama includes Alabama and parts of Florida and I hear no difference in their accents or notice any major cultural differences yet people love to say Florida isnât Southern and group the state as a whole. I often go to Mobile to visit my family for Mardi Gras festivities. That is not part of the culture in every part of Alabama.
Maybe sheâs from the northern part.
I think it has grown over the last 30 years where the schools and local news have pushed for accents that are more in line with Hollywood movies and TV shows. Most States with big cities, their accent in the city will be more like someone from California, but people who are in the rural areas cling to the more original accents people had in that area over the last 150 years. Schools and media are normalizing a certain accent in the last 20-30 years.
@@anndeecosita3586 I just know that Alabama is a deep southern state and she doesnât sound southern at all to me
@@Northanteus Iâve noticed more non Southerners and even English speaking non Americans adopting yâall which has traditionally been a more Southern thing. I think maybe the media is creating more crossover. But you are right about rural/versus city and accents. Many times rural accents are stronger. Iâm currently in the Midwest and I can hear a difference between country and city people.
Scouse, alright LAR
Oi Oi!
Spaniard here. 20ÂșC degrees is still freezing cold for us ;-) Well.. OK, not *that* cold, but still it's an unpleasant temperature in spring or autumn. Definitely, *NOT* for taking your shirt off.
Most people here still wearing long sleeves at 25ÂșC, maybe you start wearing short-sleeved shirts when reaching 29 or 30 degrees. These days we're having very strange weather, the last week we had a storm from the atlantic that brought snow back on the 5th of april, and yesterday 10th of april, a sudden heat wave from Africa. I left home early at 10 AM with jersey and jacket, and had to take them off at 3 PM 'cos the thermometer jumped to 29C degrees (84F)
Where's Lauren from the UK ?
She's from the North West 'edit: of England' (Merseyside area) but has a mainly South East English sound to her.
@@Thurgosh_OG she sounds a bit Scouse. I don't hear the south eastern English
@@greenmachine5600 Same. Sheâs definitely northern, not south eastern.

its not soccer for everyone else, its FOOTBALL for everyone else. Im technically from America.
The stereotype I have towards Brits is that they don't use gonna or wanna, but... Cady uses it a lotttđ
Those and way too much "like", like every second word like!
As a brit I say gunna and wanna all tike but I think that's because I'm from further north than Cady and I don't say like very often it annoys me when people say like all the time
Scots will say 'Gonnae'(gone-ay), as in "gonnae no dae that", we could also say "i dinnae wannae dae that". "dae" is pronounced just like "day", and means "do". "Wannae" is literally "want to", "Dinnae" means "don't". We use that suffix "ae" a lot, which would be the equivalent of "a". Other examples would include "huvnae" meaning "haven't", "tae" meaning "to", "adae" which generally means "going on", or "the matter with", so could be used to ask "Whit's adae wi ye?", meaning "what's wrong with you?"/"what's the matter with you?".
Hello Hallie
Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada, sorry.
Yo vine por el meme jajaja
Thank you girls đđ. Stereotypes!đ
"Soccer... for everyone else" - I guess you mean, for every American? Football is football rather than soccer to most of the world outside of the US I think? Just thought that was funny lmao.
When australians say football, we generally mean australian rules, not soccer.
Some places, people may mean rugby.
Although, since it is australia, we don't actually say football. We say footy.
Yeah, cause english is an international language and the most popular 2nd language in non english countries, and football is by far the most popular sport in the world.
A good third of the world or so calls it Soccer, i believe. People need to stop acting so butthurt about it.
was trying to be ironic đ
@Jessica A Most of the main English-speaking countries (by which I mean countries where English is the main first language rather than a lingua franca)call it soccer: US, Canada, Aus, NZ etc. It's only the Brits who call it football, maybe the Irish... dunno.
I do call it soccer deliberately around Brits because it's really cringe how they get so uptight over it. We can call it whatever we want because it's not our (Aus/NZ) main sport and it is seen as a posh/effeminate pastime. It's mainly played by young kids, private-school kids and a handful of immigrant communities here.
Talking about Brits and good manners, unfortunately, in our country, if someone mentions British men, the first thought is a dead-drunk guy who's peeing at our freedom statue... This is how British men "behave" themselves as tourists.
Some British men, although those are the kind of things that stick, I can't say I'm surprised it's a stereotype
@@phenic5761, yes, it sticks. And even if I understand that not every British man is like that, these are those- several, not one- loud cases which make and strengthen the stereotype. And this is why I'd never imagined being with a British guy, it was kind of no-go for me. đ
@@indrajukame absolutely, and I don't blame you the slightestđ
@CHRISTIAN KNIGHT, I didn't get the point. I'm not American. What has my comment to do with freedom and fighting? Young British guys often choose our small country as a tourism destination, get here piss drunk and are being rude and disgusting. Not all of them but many enough to build this stereotype. I think you totally misunderstood the meaning of freedom, sorry.
The most important difference between USA an UK and u forgot about it is :
đșđž soccer/football đŹđ§
Extremely true
Well that's a 'US/the rest of the world' thing as everyone else calls it football.
6:22 12 movies or so and more than 7 books by nowâŠWe must have a different definition of âa coupleâ lol
10 books and 11 movies if you count fantastic beasts (but theres always tales of beedle the bard)
Teens in american movies/shows are played by 30yos. But we do have some muscular teens though.
The reason teenagers in American movies look so mature is because they are played by actors in there 20s
im trying to pinpoint her accent i moved from northeast to the south and she sounds like my kids teacher...ohhhh shes from the bible belt
Yeah cuz teenagers in american moveis are often played by 30year olds
Yea but still American teens are usually more buffed than other countries in general
Why does Hallie remind me of Kelly off of Dance Moms? I like these two as a video pair too :)
My stereotype has Dolby 5.1
For the "piss drunk" I bet most of that comes from the international students coming back from uni as "alcoholics" compared to their culture back home! đ€Ł
Hallie here (American girl with the weird cocktail of an accent đ€Ș) - Thanks for welcoming me to the channel everyone! đ„°
P.S. Guys I live abroad and I'm a huge sports fan, I'm aware most of the world calls it football/fĂștbol đ That was the joke.

Much love to my English and Australian homies. I've got a lot of English/Scot/Welsh heritage so I'm always intrigued in how we Americans are different yet similar.
It must be the Englishman in me but when I speak I keep the tone monotonous and formal unless I've a reason to be. I'm not the excitable southerner đ I say sorry way too much.
The American girl doesn't sound very Southern
She probably lost much of her accent after traveling abroad so much, advertently or inadvertently.
Yay An American Southerner. đ Welcome Halle. đșđž My family is from Alabama so I will claim you as a cuzzin. I like going to Mobile for Mardi Gras.
Because of child labor laws and school requirements most movies use older actors. But itâs not uncommon for high school jocks to be built. A lot of teens purposely bulk up.
I do think white English people are generally more pale than American white people. . I remember going to London and thinking these are the whitest white people Iâve ever seen in my life. Some looked translucent. In the USA people that shade might get asked if they are ill. May be a combination of sun exposure and genetics because I think Americans tend to have more variety in our DNA with darker Europeans, Indigenous and African.
I never read or watched HP either. I wasnât forbidden just not interested.
We Southerners love to chat in the grocery store lines and we say Darlinâ a lot to strangers. I need to go to Northern England next time. I didnât like the food when I went to the London. But where Iâm from we eat a lot of Creole Cajun food so anything that is more on the bland side I donât like.
I think the color thing probably has more to do with climate/culture than anything. On a genetic level, White Americans don't tend to have any significant Indigenous or African ancestry. Most are basically 100% European. It may also have to do with the diversity of European heritage in the US, like you said.
Wow, this was so interesting! Iâve always had a feeling that people from the southern states of the US and Brits go well along, and I think at least this clip kind of confirms it. It seems to be that in the South, thereâs a lot of more of traditional âEnglishnessâ, more conservative values, and also the way they talk is for some weird reason closer to some kind of generic âBritishâ English, with just a little more polite language. I canât really define too well what it is, but thereâs just something in the culture there that would make these people go along well, and like I said, there just seems to be a natural âflowâ between these two women that you rarely see.
I'd say the Northeast is closer actually. Although Northeasterners are a lot more direct, but the accent, culture, and architecture is closer to the UK
Thereâs usually some truth to stereotypes, finding out how much truth there is to it is key. Notice I said usually, be kind when responding to my comment.
you must be American , coz you hesitated by saying...."Notice I said Usually, be kind when...."
_that I've Noticed in Americans (MOST) try be friendly in every way possible not to hurt anybodies feelings (the Whites especially)_
_especially on this channel the Europeans are Direct and just say it_
_Americans fear may be because people riot in your country for silly reasons_
_and that is why US will be Fvcked more_
I may be wrong but I like to read people .......
5:36 Wait what?!?!?!
I think restaurant food in England has improved over the years, it's easier to find now. But that's true in the US and many other places also. When I first moved to the US city I live in about 20 years ago, the local cuisine was great but not much variety otherwise and lots of bland places. Not even a good pizza place. But now even fast casual places have better quality food. So I agree it's an old stereotype. My last visit to England the food was wonderful! Also the internet made good food easier to find when traveling compared to the 1990's or earlier.
Re: cousin marriage: I remember one dude being Very Online by ranting about the classism involved in making jokes about inbred rural white Americans, which is a valid criticism and one I happen to agree with. But dude then he went and got an own goal by saying that sexual and romantic options are often very limited in those areas so marrying your first cousin may be your best choice.
As far as the laws go: second cousin marriage or further distant is legal basically everywhere, as it's only in the case of recurring marriages between first cousins that consanguinity becomes a public health issue.
Am I the only one who can't hear any southern accent on her speech?
The bad food stereotype is from decades ago, when it was sadly very true...
The socks and sandals comboâŠ.
C'mon Hallie, y'all gotta give us that beautiful 'Bama accent.
The Harry Potter bit does say she's from the South. Most of us in the Midwest would let the child go see the movie, and then we'd have a little conversation afterwards about fantasy vs. reality. Hopefully, when I ask the child what they got out of the movie, I'll hear something like "Most of the bad wizards aligned with Voldemort out of fear. Harry shows courage by standing up for his friends even when they're temporarily unpopular." Then I'll know they were paying attention, and hopefully they've also learned that cursing someone that offended you with a nasty rash isn't a solution to the problem the two of you are having. If I don't hear something along those lines, we'll be having a longer conversation.
I'm gonna start this by saying I'm a Floridian. I never had that conversation with my parents. I guess it just depends on the person though. Any movie that i watched that my parents wanted me to learn something from was never really liked by me. I avoided a lot of kids shows because of that too. At most, i'd watch a show that teaches another language like Dora. I've always loved movies with any type of action sequence. I honestly think i never had that conversation because they always found some way to make me hate the antagonist. As long as I understood who the bad guys were then i was good to go. I also never really copied anything from tv so i was allowed to watch more than other kids.
I hope cady, lauren, and emily together in one video đ
I'm interested in that particular british accent which she speaks. Can anyone tell me what it is?
I would say itâs scouse, but it is a lot closer to standard English than most scousers.

She herself said that she comes from a region somewhere between Liverpool and Wales. So it's like a mix between those accents and her sing-song-like intonations are because of the Norman Vikings (especially from nowaday's Norway) who lived in that region way back when.

British students need more sports in their schools
We have plenty of sports, so wide a range in fact that our male sports athletes don't need to bulked to stupidity to enable a good ability at most of them. Hence we don't need to look like a brick wall to perform well.

The American woman thinking only USA has school team sports got me cracking up đ€Ł đ
I donât think she meant that USA are the only ones that have school team sports, I think she meant it as thereâs not as much of a variety in high schools or enthusiasm to a certain extent.
Yeah, that's obviously not true. It's way more serious though with actual sports leagues and huge stadiums at the school grounds etc. It's a huge industry. School sports in most other countries is just friendly games lmao.
@@thespankmyfrank okay but you didnât prove your point, plus did you even watch the part where she asked? She clearly thought the UK didnât do sports at school because she was like âat school?â
@@JoshHutchersonOfficial Did you watch the part where she asked âdo you guys have it?â It was a question not an assumption. Actually Iâve heard some Brits say the school sports arenât as supported there as they tend to be in the US. Itâs common for Americans to go watch high school games even if they donât have kids playing because we like to support our alma matters. We show high school game highlights on the local news. And the radio stations will broadcast high school games live with announcers. Do they do that in the UK?
@@thespankmyfrank In the USA we have sports leagues but they are separate from schools and typically use facilities that belong to the city or county, not the school. One difference with leagues is you have to pay whereas with most school sports, the school district pays for uniforms, travel and on so. Thatâs why with certain sports itâs harder to get super good early on if your parents donât have money because you have to wait until at least junior high to start playing on organized teams whereas other kids have been playing since age four. A lot of leagues ask local businesses to sponsor the teams to offset some of the expenses. Now I was a high school cheerleader and my school didnât pay for our uniforms or anything. Same with the dance team.

Actually for everyone is *football*

In Canada they are very close to the US so it is reasonable! Even though Canada is part of the Commonwealth and they are influenced by England but again, they are neighbours with the US so it make sends why they adopted that wrong term!

And compared to America, like..." - I'm quite grateful that I didn't grow up in an English speaking country, I would get nervous of all the 'likes' đ
It's catching up
I'm British and I don't I hate people who say like all time
@@charlienerd of course, I don't hate people who are saying that, but I think it's rather annoying. I think it 'pollutes' the language, since it's a useless word.
@@Tweeteketje it annoys me no end
This is great! But Iâd love to see American and Brits of color to also discuss their POV.
@gerard dearie Defensive much? đŹ Thatâs awesome that they have a woman who is Scottish of Asian decent. Many of the videos I have seen are not POC, and I like to learn from all perspectives. And as we know both Europe and the US are quite diverse so they have many narratives that influence the greater social culture.
The day World Friends goes woke, is the day I unsubscribe.
World Friends has had many nonwhite women from America and Europe on before, but race never came up, because there's nothing unfriendlier than a discussion about race, controversy and the politics of division.
I think I speak for most of World Friends' audience when I say we want to keep things light and friendly.
Plenty of other channels out there cater to your politics.
Look man, youâre entitled to your opinion as I am. We come from very different cultures that shape our world views. I want to hear as many peopleâs stories to learn, as many have not always been heard. I donât minimize the POV of the two lovely people in the video.
Disagree with me and make your informed guesses đ Your opinion of me and my background donât hold any weight for me. If you to think of me as a white lady in suburbia americana, as the object of your frustration, or anything else, by all means, knock yourself out! Iâm free to share my view on this public platform just as you are, and as such Iâll keep doing so. Feel free to comment back though, but Iâm not on YT all the time, so I may have forgotten this conversation when I return. In the meantime, you keep fighting for your opinion đ
Souther American are the lost colony of the French Canadian
You're thinking of Louisiana (the Cajuns). That's only a small subsection of the South and its own cultural region.
did this American girl just say 'soccer for everyone else' to the camera?
I love your videos world friends.
Your videos are funny and informative at the same time.
I just want to say include Indians to your videos.
I Never seen Harry Potter
Boo u lol just kidding
"Like", blah blah "Like", blah "Like", blah - and that's from the British girl! Shows what a ridiculous impact US television and internet videos has on the UKs speech.
Legal to marry 3rd cousins in Alabama? I knew a great man, now passed away, who lived in Florida when I knew him but was from Alabama. He was married practically all his life from an early age to his double first cousin. None of his children had birth defects although a double first cousin is practically the same genetically as a full sibling. I think they are more genetically related than to a half sibling.
At any rate, the increased likelihood of congenital defects from marriage to first cousins is exaggerated. Therefore I think the stigma and illegality in some states is unfortunate. I know of people who lived in my community who adored one another and would have, but for stigma and illegality would have married. They enjoyed each other's company for years. Our ideas against incest come from the Bible, except that the Bible does not for forbid the marriage of first cousins, but forbids closer relations whether by affinity or consanguinity. For purposes of law I therefore think the marriage of first cousins should not be forbidden to prevent birth defects, though there may be heightened risk of birth defects if families keep marrying first cousins generation after generation as Europeans royals were wont to do as well as royals of many other cultures worldwide.
I thought you would bring up the Brit stereotype that Brits have bad teeth (think Austin Powers). Glad to see that one has been debunked.
In British Movies teens love like TeensâŠIn American movies and tv shows they are creepy adults
What about black people stereo typesđ
Lol, if Cady thinks British food is good, she should travel to southern Europe⊠Spain, Italy, Greece. Her mind will explode. British food indeed sucks, and I live in London.
đđ I love all the European cuisines! Also love your username!
That's your problem, dude; you live in London. Get out and travel a bit, see the sights and taste some real British food.
Yo
Try going to one of Gordon Ramsay's restaurants and telling him to his face British food is shit.
Heâs a blow hard who hams it up for tv. đ I find it hilarious when he curses people out.
Sorry but British food is boring
Definitely! Toad in the hole, shepherd's pie, bubble and squeak, fish and chips, chip butty... No wonder every Brit I know has some sort of food allergy (or is an extremely picky eater). They're not used to a varied diet.
Agreed. I think it depends how you define 'British', though. A lot of defensive people refer to food in Britain generally, rather than just traditional British food. Our traditional food is bland af!
@@lucasribeiro7534 I'm not picky but I do have a food allergy
Most teenagers in American films probably look bigger because theyâre played by 30-year-old actors. đ
But yeah, I think the guys I grew up with were also fairly used to some form of manual labor, which would account for some of the thickness. And 100% on the sports. Not just playing sports, but (especially with football) thereâs an emphasis on bulking up so their size/stats help them to get recruited to colleges.
More like 25 movies đ
Maybe in the 90s videos that's exactly how it is just watch
Oh yeah that's actually a really good point about aiming for colleges. They're not only a bigger deal here as sports themselves but often the only way many could ever *get* an education. English university just doesn't have that as a concern.
America likes everything Big
_even ass_
@@Kaalyn_HOW Thatâs definitely a part of it for many, but college sports are a celebrity culture of their own. So even when the financial part doesnât play a role, I think there would still be a big drive to play at that level.
Yo American teenagers are no different most of them are normal looking teenage dudes it's just that Netflix makes you think teenagers in America are buff and hardcore gym fanatics.
