I miss British humour


Melody

Recommended Posts

Americans tend to take themselves more seriously than Brits do, and sometimes I'm reminded of what I'm missing.

 

Loved this article about Twitter responses to an ignorant comment about the British. Needless to say, it would never happen here (although I do realise this is a pretty heavily edited set of tweets).

Many thanks for that Melody reading the replies just made my Sunday afternoon!!

 

I had to study in Germany for a while in my twenties .....the first time a really long time away from UK and it wasn't till I got back when guess what the train up to London was late....so nothing new in the universe then.......and the wry comments from people about this made me suddenly realise what I'd really missed while away....our very understated,deprecating  and subtle sense of humour.
