What gets me is mundane shit, like drinking tea, the weather and walking dogs. Like seriously? We're staking a claim to a beverage most of the planet has been drinking for millennia, water falling from the sky and dog ownership.
The best thing, potentially the only good thing, about Britain is how diverse it's local cultures can be. Everywhere is better than the imaginary Britland of walking dogs and talking about walking dogs in what weather.
British boomers are literally the worse people to ever exist. Boomercide when?
Depends on which boomer culture. Theres also a boomer culture of smoking pot, studying buddhism, reminiscing about the anti 'nam war movement and telling 30 yos listening to the doors to "get your own damn music."
The British citizenship test from circa 2012 paints a fairly bleak picture of a populace entertained solely by alcoholism, gardening and compulsive, excessive gambling.
I love citizenship tests because they are always insane. I was the only one in my civic highschool class who passed ours. I almost lost too because like 3 questions were about soccer and pop music from the 90s (And some of the rest were hyperspecific, like which specific year did X movement began, 1973, 1974, or 1975)
Come the revolution, all you'd reasonably need to do to get Middle England onside is make all football tickets free. That's all they care about. Give 'em free pies as well and they'll join the Red Army - as long as it wasn't named that because you'd run into sectarianism between Man Utd fans and everyone else
Having silly sounding words only old people say is a pretty cool identity marker tho ngl
