I feel like them chanting USA and mocking Britain is her entire life at that office
Sam Womack every American on CZcams talking about Britain ever.
I mean Britain did own the US at one point
So I think they should calm down with there chanting
ItzCrazyStuff and look how that turned out
J wow chill
"Not true about England and also not how communism works" - legitimately my favourite quote of any CZcams video.
05:00
Americans normally have quite a weird view of communism lmao
“A license to watch television?! That’s a birthright!”
Most American thing said in this video.
Actually you only need a license to watch the BBC. Other channels are fair game
Incorrect. By owning a TV and having access to other channels you inherently have access to the BBC. You have to have a license no matter what.
Martiansfromthemoon literally isn’t the truth. As a recently graduated student (the biggest target for tv license spam letters) I had to research this as to not get fined the majority of my student loan. You do not have to pay your licence if you don’t watch or stream BBC content. The other channels are independently funded and don’t require a licence.
@@IfISpeakBigTrouble that's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is the BBC's logic is if you own a TV and can access the other channels. You can also access BBC meaning you have to pay for a license. I'm not saying you need it to watch ITV or Channel 5. But if you are watching those channels, then you can for sure watch BBC which is all the care about
Martiansfromthemoon As long as you aren’t watching bbc content you don’t need a license. You said ‘you have to have a license no matter what’, which just isn’t true.
It took me 2 min to realise that it was not a sketch.
Shishira K Herle ik i was watching it to see when someone’s head would explode or something
Yep. GREAT BRITAIN GREAT BRITAIN. What? The A Americans can do it but the British cant?!?
I still don't know if it's a sketch or not
*realize
Christopher Celeste no realise is the english spelling not american english
Siobhan looked legitimately pissed while doing this.
You would be if you were British
Obi-wan Kenobi I am
i was
I was
Probably why it was never done again
"The Scottish would be very pissed at you"
*THE SCOTTISH ARE VERY PISSED AT YOU*
I almost tried to write an email saying how wrong he is until I saw that the video is quite old
That's a fact. A'm gonnae bring uilleam wallace back tae lee 'n' gang tae war against america.
I'm Scottish and I don't even like irn bru
the bed is cuz they changed the recipe?
@@notabed800 The disappointment in you and my respect for you are one in the same.
I also think Siobhan killed Pat. But I also kind of think that Trapp saw her do it and he was like... "please! PLEASE Let me take credit...!" And Siobhan was like *looks around, trying to make sure like he's really this stupid* and then is like "Yeah... *shrugs* sure..."
You what
Ok, fine, this is my new head cannon now!
I love how Siobahn was just constantly correcting everyone 😂
I would too
She was kinda upset.
Siobhán*
No hard feelings against the guys, but She deserves an award for putting up with all of that sh*t!
She was wrong about "English Muffins" though. We do have those here. Possible they originated in the US but that seems unlikely given that we just call them muffins. If we need to distinguish them from the baked kind we call them toaster muffins
In London, we actually don't use cars that often. Instead, we actually ride horses of which occasionally carry carriages along dimly lit streets.
Grammer Police I'm late, but I know! London is just cars and people getting ran over by them.
yeah, when i was a wee lad, i wa' nearly run down by me own ooncle, but luckly i had mah lucky horse shoe, so i throo it and i survived, i did, but, i mean, the horse died so, that was bad for the family bank account
Archbishop Edmund of Abingdon cobblestone roads of course
No.
mango man2004 is this english or is it something else
Ok, I know that Siobhan said she didn't want this happening again...
But please can we have it again?
SpazSpy she clearly hates it though
Cameron Trivett Not HATES as such, more... Dislikes.
I know exactly how she feels. It pisses me off when Americans try to attempt my accent.
Seamus Aindriu O'Coran Well I find it hilarious.
I've heard some Americans do good accents, but most I've heard sound like someone is strangling an Australian teenager. I also hate it when Americans try to use the word "Bloody" like we do. It just sounds wrong
The most american thing was when they called britain communist.
What? There's a place that isn't the USA? Get outta here with this commie bs
Ik why do so many of them think even the most mild socialism is full on communism lol
@@flamingarbre1284 because Red Spook
@@flamingarbre1284 By american logic, every welfare country is communist.
Mike: “I mean she wasn’t THAT great”
British people: so you’ve chosen death?
Well I mean she couldn't drive
I legitimately said 'death to trapp' when he said that, so...
Well.... After what happened to Harry, I wouldn't say he's wrong.
@@gailstepo69 she wasn't driving
@@ren.67 which specific thing cause a lot of things have happened
Do Americans know the difference between Britain and England?
+Dat Yognaught Do Brits know the difference between USA and New York or Texas?
Jstoney127 yes but Americans always say British and then stereotypically English things
Dat Yognaught
And Brits always say Americans and then say some stereotypical New Yorker(Northern) or Texas(southern) things.
Jstoney127 yeah but America is a country, England, Scotland and Wales are different countries and Britain is not correct for England
Dat Yognaught
But england, scotland and wales are part of Great BRITAIN and are recognized as British. Therefore, the English are British so stop complaining. Besides who cares. Ya'll have four countries inside one country. It makes no sense! Either be one country and be cool with people calling you brits or be independent countries and people will generally refer to you as w/e you want.
TJMaxx is called TKMaxx in the UK because the company wanted to avoid confusion with the British shop T J Hughes. I'm guessing they choose 'k' as it is the next letter in the alphabet.
huh didn't know that
It's only one x in America
the more you know
Jeff Goldbroom no there’s not lol
In germany it is also called tkmaxx though
Why didn't this became a series. Is like "um, actually", but xenophobic
Because no British person ever wants it to happen ever again
Archie Maclean-Bristol that’s a lie please let it happen
And they could have branched off to other countries
I think Siobhan left College Humor.
She said "this is never happening again" at the end of the video.
Brit here, cringing so damn hard throughout all of this... I wanted to hug Siobhan and tell her it’s okay 😭
USA! USA! USA!
USA! USA! USA!
YA WANKA Oooo American ooOoo I'm British mate
roight wuts oll dis den
Vadim now this is a true Brit Idk where they get all that ‘governor’ shit from this is the language of a true Brit.
Oh she's from England? Even as a fellow English person I didn't realise that. She has one of those half American, half British accents that make her sound like a drunk Australian.
+SyndexAwesome YES, I thought she was from New Zealand or something until this
PREACH!!!
+SyndexAwesome Don't all Australians sound drunk..?
Sorry, I had to.
+SyndexAwesome as a drunk Australian I find this offensive
+seznova +CUB3M4ST3R Hahahahaha
1:05 perfectly shows the face Europeans make whenever Americans start the "USA USA" chant!
+ThePixelPanzer It's typically done _as_ a joke because of the responses it gets.
Perpetuating stereotypes, as a joke.
Me, as a US citizen, don't really think about it. I see myself as a human. Nothing more. The US is merely an arbitrarily-defined line that encompasses the landmass I live on.
+Minor Elite I like your world view, I think sometimes people get so wrapped up in where they come from, what language they speak and what culture they have, that they forget that we are all human
+Philip Zeplin "Vive France!" Oh no, I guess that's high art.
That's the face anyone makes
Minor elite does not believe in his rights as a citizen. He is merely a denizen of an arbitrarily defined land mass.
Wikipedia time! TK Maxx has that name in the UK to avoid confusion with another British store, TJ Hughes.
I am highly offended about people not knowing what Irn bru is because I’m Scottish
Irn Bru is good
If i could irn bru would be my diet goddamit diabetes 😣😣
Ah Scotland, accomplished 4 things ever, penicillin, television, irn bru and tea cakes
Iran bra is great but they changed the recipe
@@aaronmclean1831 they have achieved a lot more ... to get a full list watch the grand tour s1 forgot which episode but it's somewhere
I think Siobhan killed Pat

😂😂 true
Yes lol
Curiosity kills the Pat
so Trapp is actually innocent, you mean?
I watched this and said "what the fuck is a T J max"
same 😂
Yeah same
O
FLIPPING EXACTLY
Imperator Houlihan yeah sameh
“The spellings are wrong” SO TRUE
"Not true about England and not how Communism works." That got me good
Em "Top of the morning" is an Irish stereotype, not British. Also not something anyone says in Ireland either but still. No association with Britain at all.
What about Northern Ireland.
Jayda C
I knew someone would say that! Top o' the morning is an Irish stereotype. Not British, regardless of NI.
+Jayda C When he said Ireland that means both North and South of the border as we both have it in the name.
*****
The guv'na and all that is British cockney. Not the "top o' tha marnin tih ya"
*****
The sterotype is just mornin' guv'na. Without the top of.
I love how pissed off Siobhan seems throughout the entire video ahahahaha
I would be too if they were mocking my country, which they are.
I'm pretty sure that was the joke, she looked like she had some genuine fun lol
Yeah I've lost a bit of respect for her now. How does she cope with hecklers. Can't stand the heat (I'm British by the way, I loved the accents. )
*America, talking to other countries* : "We had a Civil War"
*Britain* : "Cute"

Americans: USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
we do have english muffins in england they just aren't called english muffins, like how canadian bacon isn't called canadian bacon in canada
Tom Berry wait, there's a thing called 'Canadian bacon'?!?!?
isnt Canadian bacon just bacon like we have in England, i know american bacon is like little rectangular strips so it strikes me that america is the odd one out and thus we should be saying american bacon and normal bacon.
canadian bacon is back bacon like we have here in england but americans think of streaky bacon as normal bacon and back bacon as canadian bacon
Tom Berry but if their bacon is the minority how can it be the "normal bacon".......oh i think i was accidentally bacon racist
to americans its the normal stuff not to us or canadians but were talking about americans here you bacon racist
haha I love their impressions of us, it's so shit it's funny
Then you got the joke. Congrats.
oo watch out for this guy
+Jordy Stewart banter
Top-notch banter!
just a question, apparently you Americans have something called biscuits and gravy, what is that? not in a weird way but in England gravy is something you put on your Sunday dinner and with bangers and mash, and biscuits are the equivalent of cookies?
Zac might have lost the game, but Siobhan was the real loser here
Wondercraft if you are from the UK you would understand
I’m surprised that Siobhan didn’t point out that the way CollegeHumor was spelt was wrong because it was one display in the room. (Although she did say that the Oxford American dictionary’s spellings were wrong.)
color, armor, humor
As a British person, i am offended by everything.
+Voltaire but you would never admit and politely nod along not wanting to cause a fuss but later on writing a strongly worded review on trip advisor.
All Internet Girls Are Fake Voltaire (the picture) is a French person
+Shannon-Marie Clerkin That is amazingly accurate.
Legitimate British person
Wait a minute! You're Voltaire! You're not English!
IMPOSTER. GUARDS, GUARDS, A FRENCH SPY HAS INFILTRATED THE CAMP.
For this British episode, shoudn't the word Collegehumor at the top of the screen have two u's in it?
+NotNathan college huumor? that can't be right :)
+Kaan Atakan Humour
+NotNathan wtf we spell humor like that don't we......?
In Britain.....?
Or I just cant spell.........
Adam Scholes its humour in Britain and humor in us. It's ok though I get confused by it to
+Adam Scholes It's 'humour' in British English.
I feel like Pat was there solely to piss off Siobahn. Because otherwise he didn't really do anything at all
3:45
My entire family: EXCUSE ME WHAT.
I'm offensive and I find this British
Aha are you actually British?
+Kali Rowan No, they're offensive.
+Kali Rowan you just britished me ._.
Oh not you ffs
Nnnnnnnnczcnn
Wait, it's called T.J Max in America?
+cornishphilosopher Tom and Jerrys (to the) Max
+cornishphilosopher TJ Maxx is from the company called TJX. TK Maxx is just the British version for some reason. ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯
+Countdown Bleck (Mr12603) ikr me too
+cornishphilosopher It was renamed to TKMaxx here so not to be confused with TJ Hughes (idk if you've ever been to a TJ Hughes, there aren't very many) which is another department store but not affiliated with TJX. The company is called TJ Maxx
+cornishphilosopher There are lots of brands named differently in Britain compared to the rest of the world, I have no idea why. Walkers crisps = Lays chips in the rest of the world, Lynx body spray = Axe body spray; and loads of other brands you can get anywhere else but in Britain. Maybe something to do with trademark law or something...
Here's something thats not british....
ireland !
Yep and neither is Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland is only part of the UK.
Correct its part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Ireland is part of the British isles, so therefore the Irish are British.
Point?
Pie man you should go to the Emerald Isle "Ireland" and call any Irish person you find British and see how far you get. In one under educated comment you just ignored hundreds of years of oppression, religious bias, acts of incredible violence all because the British did not think the Irish were British. Education on simple facts can stop dumbass comments
Thought this was going a sketch, but so glad it was legit! Want to see an Um Actually themed episode that's just this
We had several Civil Wars in reality if you count the Wars of the Roses and that business with Matilda
Depends on the definition of civil war you use but yeah I could see that
my favorite is the roundheads vs the cavaliers. they actually lopped off king Charles' head at the end and then stitched it back on together so that his family could mourn his corpse. that's what i call British brutality, savage but civilized.
Dont talk about my 22nd Grate grandmother like that
@@bezretmet basic history that his head was cut off, i dont understand how it is brutality to sew the head back on for his family to bury him, the heads of traitors were usually put on spikes on london bridge, but it was actually an act of kindness as technically he was a traitor.
Technically there were thousands of miniature civil wars around the country.
I AM SCOTTISH AND WHAT HE SAID ABOUT IRN-BRU IS A LIE IT IS THE BEST DRINK EVER
I'm English and I like Irn - Bru I don't get why people hate on it.
+koala man Irn-Bru is great once you get used to it. At first it's a bit of a shock.
+koala man
Couldn't agree more! I'm drinking one as I type!
Irn Bru is the best drink!
+koala man irn bru is the dog's danglies
I'm watching this three years later, and I want so much more of this. Siobhan's long-suffering everything during this is just too damned good. Amazing.
I've been waiting for a follow up since this came out... Please. Please make more
Fun fact about the British (myself included). We have November the 5th, where we celebrate the failure to overthrow the government. Why is that interesting? - well, most cultures celebrate a great revolution (independance day, Bastile day, etc etc etc). But the uk celebrates quite the opposite. It explains a lot about the British Psyche....
Another way to look at it is that we celebrate the failure of the plot that would have resulted in a great deal of death and a far-from-democratic change of government.
+Rapscallion2009 really the only difference would have been the religion, from protestant to catholic.
+Rapscallion2009 To be honest, we celebrate it more as a folk tale rather than some political statement.
Just an excuse to use the newly imported chinese fireworks we discovered from colonisation back in the day.
And now it's just became tradition.
Isn't there some ancient British holiday to celebrate Celtic independence from the Holy Roman Empire?
+Rapscallion2009 Whenever I celebrate Guy Fawkes, I've always celebrated the idea of a man standing up to an oppressive government. Though I'm pretty sure my dad celebrates the failure of the gunpowder plot. Either way it's great fun and a wonderful excuse to set off fireworks and have a laugh :D
+Rapscallion2009 Penny for the guy
They wouldn't make fun of us if they weren't jealous :)
nice profile pic dude
You know bro, they don't even have custard creams ! XD
Then I guess Europeans are jealous as fuck of the U.S.A.
+shagtastic pork chop yes we do
No you don't
As a Brit this was well funny and I feel for siobahn because whenever I go on holiday to America to see cousins there’s more of a language barrier than you’d think like he was so confused when I asked where the bin was
I like that the image for ‘bollocks’ is Mr Bean
I'm all for these cartoonishly fun racist British jokes, but I feel like if they did the same thing with say, jamaica, china, mexico, etc, people would be losing their shit.
Yeah but they're both of pretty similar heritage so it's not really the same thing
+Richard Cano But CH wouldn't do that. They would have to hire someone of Jamaican, Chinese or Mexican ancestry first - like that's gonna happen!
+Richard Cano I think one of the main reasons this is okay is that a lot of British humour tends to be aimed at Britain anyway, at least in my experience
Eh just goes to show that you British have a sense of humor.
+Richard Cano It's because we really don't give two shits.
i love how all of these questions are pretty much about england. also i feel like most americans asociate britain with just england, like the united kingdom is made up of 4 countries...
john bobson were pretty much just one big country through same laws don't need passport to travel between etc
Ehm.. not really. Thats like saying northern ireland and the republic pretty much 1 country whick they are not. Careful hahah dont say that to a scottish person
john bobson yeah I know Scottish people hate the English so do Irish and some Welsh people as well
Its not that they hate the english i think it juat annoys them when people think scotland is a part of england haha like my family is half scottish and half english
Yeah I'm half English and half Irish
I'm here for Siobhan, truly missed British role model
Ahmed Alnajar you saying it like she’s dead
4:48 that was the perfect time to make a joke about how the american revolution cost the entire french tresuery.
Siobhan sounds like a well spoken Australian. And I'm australian.
yeh, i thought she was aussie at first
i always thought she was South African for some reason
Erin Fiorillo I can see how you'd get that too. I'm thinking she's just spent a lot of time in a lot of countries.
I guess. I could tell she was british but she does sound Aussie (I'm also Australian
She is definately British as she was born in South West England.
About the english civil wars: way to flippin many.
+GetShrektAnator Runescape Three
War of the Roses
Cousin's War
Civil War
No we only have had one official civil war
+jonathan hart I like the big clock what goes *dong*
jonathan hart
I can tell you that the War of the Roses and the Cousin's War were by any definition Civil Wars
Molotov Fire-breath
That is Big Ben, which resides in the Queen Elizabeth Tower
I'd love to see a Aussie version of this.
Wonderful. I wish they'd do/done more of these.
She looked legitimately pissed the whole time
William Snow was*
Yeah, half of the time i was wondering what Siobhan was thinking when there was terrible British accents being attempted. I feel like it's the same way an Australian like myself feels when they hear someone make an atrocious attempt at an Australian accent, mild annoyance with a bit of internal facepalming.
William Snow I’m British and this did kind of piss me off
Fintan Mead what exactly is there to be pissed off about???
Butter Fly just saying I kind of agree with siobhan and it’s a bit racist isn’t it, I know it’s comedy but still if an American did a fake Indian accent in front of an Indian person they might be pissed and there would be controversy. I’m just saying I was kind of pissed off
The British civil war (War of the Roses) is what George R.R Martin based 'Game of Thrones' on, thought you yanks would have known that.
I'm pretty sure she's referring to the war between the parliamentarians and roundheads
+Guy Potts Roundheads are the parliamentarians. Royalists/cavaliers vs roundheads/parliamentarians/rebels. In England we have a ton of civil wars though
+Ryan Pugh You mean the English civil war?? And the English civil war and War of the Roses are hundreds of years apart.
Bassmint They are both civil wars though. Before that we had the peasant's revolt and the baron's wars
+Ryan Pugh You would be thinking of the Wars of the Roses, a quite different era. Also, while GRR Martin took some parallels from this conflict (e.g. the names of Stark and Lannister: York and Lancaster), he says he was most inspired by the series of novels Le Rois maudits, which cover the 14th Century in France, the end of the Capetian dynasty and the rise of Valois; a period with a very similar feel of dynastic rivalry.
I love how the britain thing was Sherlock Holmes played by Benedict Cumberbatch
Siobhan is my favorite for this omg I love her so much more now this is hilarious
We have actually had a few civil wars
Alex Peterson yeah but the only ones people ever talk about are the wars of the roses and the English civil war
Alex Peterson Wait... do American schools teach mostly American history? Because there's only 200 years of it and I'm not sure how you could dag that over five years.
Well, not English, more Greek Egyptian chinese/Mongolian and a bunch of shit from WW2
+Christine Chang You learn chinese and mongolian? which periods?
We do romans greeks and egyptions over three years and the Britain for nine years (if you don't do gcse history you only get do 7 years and end at the first world war). I love Chinese history! I wish I could learn about that in school and not just the internet.
Irn bru is bad?... EX-FUCKING-SCUSE ME!?!?!?
I thought you wrote Scouse not scuse
Irn-Bru tastes like liquid bubblegum marinated in expired Lucozade.
The taste of Scottish Pride is Whiskey, not some bloody mouthwash ;)
alostguy25 Fuck you too buddy.
Oho! What have we here? A feisty Canadian? :)
Thank you for bearing through this Siobhan!! It was a lot of fun haha
You should done about stereotypes Europeans / British people have about our insane American friends too ;)
About europe, there are many false prejiduces too. About germany or italy, or spain, ... Abour americans would be good too, then siobhan can get her revenge.

+Sun Wukong USA USA USA!!
Jstoney127 I hear you have to chant it to remember what country you live in.
***** lol
+Sun Wukong they come from European Jews which the rest of ya all killed, and the remnants all came here.
+Sun Wukong to be honest it's very hard to think of an american food that is completely their own. Hamburgers are german (clue's in the name), hot dogs are german, doughnuts are dutch. the list goes on.
It's only 100-160lbs on a war bow. Not 400...
Just saying.
+tehufn Still 160lbs on one finger? USA USA USA!!
+Jstoney127 Americans never used bows
Legionare Lets Plays
Yeh, because guns are better.
+Jstoney127 no, because by the time that the americans had come along, he english no longer used bows as gunpowder firearms had been invented
+tehufn The long bow was upwards of 400 lbs. Seriously, they would train boys from a very young age to work up to that force, and they could fire off several arrows in 30 seconds. The strength and training required often resulted in skilled longbow men having disproportional muscle mass on their right arm. It sometimes even caused the shoulders to be uneven. Kind of like those joke drawings you might see about a guy who masturbates all the time, except it actually happened.
More of this please!

you can see the end of the couch though (where she sits when she enters)
The TV licence thing is technically only to watch the BBC. It is why it will remind you that you need one if you try to watch anything on their website and not any other sites. It is how the BBC gets a lot of their funding and why they don't need ad breaks.
You need a licence to watch live TV. Whether it's BBC or one of the others itv channel4 or channel 5.
@@cholland67 It has been a couple of years since I've seen the actual wording of the TV licencing forms so may have changed, however it explicitly stated that it was for the BBC in the info pack I saw, despite all advertising suggesting otherwise. Interesting fact same info pack specified different prices depending on colour or black and white TV's. (which would suggest that it was longer ago than it was can't have been much more than 3/4 years now) Also had a section on only radio licenses, which I had no idea was a thing until then. So going into specifics everyone's TV licence is technically speaking a TV and radio license. And yeah when I get bored and have time on my hand I read shite most would ignore.
Also by what is stated if you try and watch anything on the BBC's website. It is no longer just watching BBC live that you need a license for but anything on their website. For about a year now the website's reminded me I need a license to watch the BBC.
They need to do another one of these!!

"You had a civil war?!" Yeah we actually had three and a glorious revolution (we're counting Stephen and Matilda and the wars of the roses)
The war of the roses doesn't count. It was between nobility.
Alexander The grape ah yes, the glorious revolution, such a glorious glorious revolution, where us the dutch sent an army over to you lot so our prince can take the throne of britain, the result of the british losing wars to the dutch even though they had massive advantages, where the coldstream guard had to stand down to the (incredibly glorious and righteous)dutch blue guard. The time when us, the amazing dutch people, as a result of kicking britains bum in previous wars effectively occupied britain for a while. Ah yes, it was truly a glorious affair... ALL HAIL ORANGE-NASSAU, THE NETHERLANDS SHALL PREVAIL, ORANGE ABOVE! Ahem... sorry, the patriotism got to me there ;)
What about the jacobite revolution
Alexander The grape Britain wars don't count come on u guys are the French with out the USA backing u up you wouldn't even. Be a country

+Simen Moen It's pronounced fine if you read it in Irish. It just looks weird when reading it through an English filter
+goofy goober Fun fact: That is because Irish still holds more to the old Gaelic than English does... and the Gaelic was formed by the Romans giving the entire UK area (called Britannia, Hibernia, etc) an alphabet, and the Britons (as the Romans called them, at least in the first century AD/CE) making up their own language, probably without allowing the Romans to help them. So, the fact that a great deal of Gaelic does not sound as it looks, is not surprising at all.
+adrianloveslucius There's no Gaelic in English except for a handful of loan words. English is a West Germanic language, Irish is a Celtic language. They're totally separate branches of Indo-European.
English developed from the languages of the Anglo-Frisian (think: Aenglish) tribes from what is now The Netherlands who came to Britain starting in the 5th century or so. And was later influenced by Scandinavian (Vikings - also Germanic) and Norman (French - Romance family speakers) invaders.
The various native tribes on the islands of Britain, Ireland, Man, Guernsey, etc. had their own languages (the Celtic family) before the Romans got there. The Irish had their own runic-descended writing system (Ogham) before later picking up the Roman alphabet.
I've heard some bad impressions of an English accent by americans before but bloody hell that was shite.
+Nathan Worrall It was intentional. There are sometimes Americans who seriously try to do an English accent, then there are those who intentionally do it horribly just to elicit offended responses, such as yours.
Minor Elite Sometimes it's hard to tell.
Nathan Worrall
Indeed.
+Minor Elite No, not indeed. People are so quick to get offended that they can't take a joke which meant no harm.
Darkness7508
See, that's the thing. The person _giving_ the joke, does not _feel_ what the other side feels.
Many people _GIVING_ jokes don't realize the line between joke and insult.
It's not as simple as "I didn't mean it"...
Our civil war was the best.
Which one?
Fortunate _Bus The English Civil War.
Absolutely true. It had more head-chopping.
@@catiesheridan8110 nah, I'd have to say War of the Roses gets the win for best civil war
@@australianword3812 Definatly better but I don't think it's classed as a civil war because of something to do with Henry VII being French
That was fun. They should more of this.
What the fucking fuck - I have muffins for breakfast on a regular basis
+FrankyBabes I know right muffins ftw oh and crumpets
+Michael Castle why do I feel like the only British person that fucking hates crumpets
+Ryan Gifford-May you are not alone, but it also depends on what type of crumpet you get.
+FrankyBabes I really don't understand this, I've heard they ARE British, and that they ARE NOT British, vehemently, by both sides. Someone, clear this shit up for me!
+The Evil Toaster I think maybe the idea is that they didn't originate here or something. They seem to have been a central-European development on bread. The Wikipedia article on English Muffins is quite enlightening.
Am I the only one who gets really pissed off when Americans talk about England?
+Ben Ridsdale As a US citizen, no. I also get mad about it. But I also get mad when English individuals talk about the US.
No, it seems like every one of you does
Yes
+Ben Ridsdale Fuck England they slagged Irn Bru........ Bastards.
+Ben Ridsdale To be honest I don't get pissed off I just laugh internally at the misconceptions and correct them or hope someone does. I don't blame them for being interested in us. England, and the United Kingdom as a whole, are really interesting.
Zac's laugh at 3:20... I had to listen to it over and over again.
I am about to pillage the whole of America after that comment on irn bru
Are you Scottish or English, because that will determine how I respond.
@@QixTheDSScotland, and I would advise kind words
Aidan Dunnigan what’re you gonna do, chuck a big fucking rock at me and moon me by pulling up your kilt like every civil scotchman should do? I was hoping you would be English, but oh well.
@@QixTheDS are you alright sir
Oven Reese excellent fucking question
As a Scottish person I must say. TRAPP YA BETTER SHUT IT M8 OR WE'LL PAN YER WINDAES WITH HAGGIS AND KILTS AND THEN WE'LL GO HUNT FOR NESSIE AND PLAY BAGPIPES! FREEEEDOOOOOOMMMM*I'm adding in stereotypes sue me*

It's just drinking it whilst angrily looking at someone XD
**tips bonnet**
Ruby-Lou Thank you very much :P
Hasn't England had two civil wars? Does the war of the roses not count?
Technically, I suppose - although the War of the Roses was more of a war between the nobility.
Possibly... Although a civil war is supposed to be a war between a divided country and as Ian said the roses was just between nobility :)
is northern Ireland part of Britain or England?
+Sean Kelly It is part of neither, there is Great Britain made of England, Wales and Scotland and there is the United Kingdom which includes Northen Ireland. And also, thank GOD for not saying Ireland is part of the UK. We, uh, kinda fucked them up a bit. Sorry, lads.
Well there was a big war between the Catholics and Protestants effectively.
“What’s Not Actually British?”

Siobhan's impression of John was actually so good LOL
I feel very unBritish watching this as I don't have an RP accent, I have a southern accent despite being from Yorkshire. I do say bollocks however and I don't know anyone else who does.
Amber Shoffren technically an RP advent isn't particularly British since it only appeared after language reform, before which no-one could understand anyone else and we all sounded pretty weird tbf, search for a video about Shakespeare in op (original pronunciation), it's actually pretty eye-opening :)
Amber Shoffren I say bollocks. Don't worry, you're not alone! :-)
Amber Shoffren I very often wonder whether I would fit in more in America, because I naturally have an RP accent, despite living on the border of South Yorkshire, and 18 years of watching mostly American TV shows and following American celebrities has Americanised my accent.
Amber Shoffren I want to say OMG ME TO I WAS BORN IN YORKSHIRE AND NOW LIVE WESSEX
Amber Shoffren Manchester here I say bollocks
siobhan
and English girl with an Irish name who sounds Australian
Okay lol but she doesn't sound Australian in the slightest
Dylan porter dude I always thought she was Aussie cause literally depending on where you live in Australia most of us sound like that ahahhaha
Is that an Irish name? Huh. Neat.
Saoirse Someone people like you piss me off
*an
1:44 cracked when ben's face is there haha
"Haha this is a pretty cool video-"
*Britain*
_"IS THAT A FUCKING SONIC SOUND EFFECT"_
Omg I lived in England as a child and still have the accent because I’m always visiting, but this was the funniest American fake British accents ever.
B P Same way Arnold still does.
You don’t have to keep visiting to keep your accent
Jack Harkness Most kids who move to different countries slowly lose their accents especially if they're under 9
Kitty Olives s
Lm Golden lol no.
First of all, you can be born somewhere and immediately leave, being born somewhere does not indicate how long you stay. Also, accents don’t develop at birth...
The USA chant is so fucking annoying
+Aaron Horrell Then dont listen to it
+Aaron Horrell That's exactly the point.
USA US... nah just kidding, I agree with you
+Aaron Horrell USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
+Aaron Horrell: . . . and rather fascist in tone. I always find it very embarassing.
This should be a series

400 lbs? are you shooting Odysseus' bow? damn
80 to 150, 400, really that difference is so small it's basicly fair to be ignored
the british civil war inspired game of thrones.
that proves it was way cooler
Thats not true. The wars of the roses inspired Game of Thrones. Which was quite similar to a civil war, but not quite
As manphelan said, it was the War of the Roses.
Wrong. Or, should I say, bollocks?
The English civil war 1642-57, had nothing to do with the War of the Roses (late-1300s, to 1487) which was what inspired A Song of Ice and Fire. Fun fact: the bloodiest day in world history occured in the war of the roses, 28,000 people dying in a single battle
Which part? The story part or titties part?
***** I can't remember where, but it was the bloodiest something
"this spellings are wrong" too true girl...too true
3:10 IDK, why is Burger King called Hungry Jacks in Australia, i wish i knew
I know you commented 7 months ago, but it's because when Burger King expanded out here, there was already a place in Adelaide called Burger King so they gave the guy running the expansion a list of choices and he chose Hungry Jack's.
@@Siferzion huh. The more you know, i guess
