To be fair... that's reasonable.
I have been asked if I was scotch a few times.

OK. I am not even close to being Scottish and... but already at that point, they ask if I am English.

And... by the time I say Dublin, the have already landed the killer blow.

That's in England, right?

Come over here and spend your money, you'll be fine.
If you watch National Lampoon's European Vacation you'll be well prepared.

In the Long Way Round series they said that the USA was the most dangerous place they would be passing through.
Some muppets tried to mug me in LA a few years ago, they came off 2nd best, but I broke a fingernail!

I don't think the UK particularly hates Americans as individuals, but there are a few things are really annoying (my opinion of course):

1: How on earth can George Bush be in charge? Irrespective of any policy choices, shouldn't a leader be INTELLIGENT? The number of dumb things I have seen him say, and that is only when he is being filmed!!

2: The ridiculous "sue everyone" culture. Accept some damned responsibility!

3: Cheap fuel, large gas guzzling cars, vaste wasting and a total lack of respect for the environment including Kyoto agreement. Very selfish.

4: Sex in the City

Granted, most of these problems are cos of the inbred half of the USA, and that you and most other good Americans seem to be clustered in the intelligent cities and along the coasts, but your voices just simply aren't heard as much as Mr Bush's I guess.

So hurry up, get a real leader and show the world Americans are nice

America and the UK are pretty much the same IMO. On the surface they look poles apart but when you look at it closely both places are full of the same ****.

But of course feel free to come and see for yourself
