Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
Ok, I wonder sometimes how much you Americans like us British. So, I'm gonna ask you guys why you like the UK, and vice versa (so us British guys can tell the American guys why we like the US).
I basically the US because that is where most of the best movies come from (apart from James Bond, that's ours!), and I find America's history interesting as I know most of Britain's history back to front, and I like how most of America's history was just in the last few centuries.
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
For me, it's cause our two countries are like brothers.
Also you got the sexiest accents.
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
I love the UK because:
1. I love watching your football just as much as watching American football (Go Man U!)
2. I find British accents on girls oh so sexy.
3. James Bond.
4. You guys are basically our best friends in the world at the moment. And everyone needs a friend.
5. The high-class British gentleman is something that the world could use more of.
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
You guys (British) make wonderful shows and movies, have wonderful actors and actresses, and I love the accents!!

I like Americans because......wow tough one this..... you make us Brits seem more intelligent Joking xD
Nah I like Americans because us two countries are like the brother and sisters. Plus, you lot have great taste in music and creating music. Plus, your lots awards show/ fashion is just like mind blow. And yes, your food is really nice and you lot are just so diverese.
Though....I hate it when Americans think we all have a London accent.....

Course not Pammy, but see that brunette, she's a northern lass and reperesents an accent very similar to me. Love ya Louise xD
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
I don't exactly love British people (your accents and dialects are a bit hard for me to understand sometimes, you hate on our egos even though you have a pretty huge one yourselves, you don't have Denny's, etc.), but they are definitely near the top of my list of favorite nationalities. You guys have so much history, which I love studying, and your old government inspired my people to invent the modern democracy. You guys make great movies and write great books. You usually use the same language as us, which is a big plus. Most of all, though, I love British people for their music. Your folk music never gets old. You took our Blues and our rock 'n roll and made them into the hard rock and metal we know today.
You gave us Led Zeppelin. Need I say more?
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
Um, I don't.
I love American accents.
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
England is where many of the best bands, movies and TV shows came from, my boyfriend is British, and I love British accents.
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
The UK has the best bands, better government (in my opinion, not sure what you Brits have to say about that :P), I imagine the people are at least a little better behaved and have more common sense than Americans... Lots of things are better in the UK. Plus, proper English sounds far better than the god-awful American accent.
But I must say, we have better movies.
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
I'm indifferent towards the British. The accent isn't sexy. It's just different, so everyone thinks it's so great. Like what you've got, if you were British, you wouldn't think it was so sexy, now would you?
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
1. You invented the wonderful series that is Doctor Who <3
2. you're words are funny :P
3. your accents are sexy (to me)
4. you are basically the US's 'Motherland' so the bond we share is something unique to us, i guess? lol
5. half of my roots come from England so i have a special fondness for that
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
Americans like something that isn't American?! o.0 last time I checked we were the most xenophobic country on the planet
Well, Yall have birth some of the greatest music, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Queen, etc. & that is something I can appreciate :P
Re: Americans: Why Do you Like the British? (and vice versa)
-I like American accents on guys, just not particularly on other girls.
-I often appreciate the way American companies adapt our shows, strangely enough.
-I love American sweets (not chocolate, though!) when I want a sugar hit.
-I tend to revel in the idea of going on holiday in America; the cultures are different enough to be of interest but similar enough to feel comfortable in, for me.
-In my experience, Americans are some of the friendliest people to be found online. Or maybe you guys are just better at tolerating/taking amusement in my quirks. Ahahahahahaha..

Now, I didn't see that coming. I thought Americans were supposed to be self-absorbed assholes? But yeah, since we do have a lot of people (*ahem*Over 300 million...), there are bound to be some nice people. It seems we've got a little but of everything, good or bad.
