Mwahahaha we Brits are so obscure no one understands us and our superior unique Humour!!!

I think the main problem is in America a Scone is called a Biscuit, and the joke doesn't work with biscuits D:. As for other nations- do they have scones? I always assumed they were an english phenomenon!

Maybe the club should complile a list of typically British things in order to flaunt our Britishness and confuse all the other nations :)

*Peeks in* Being a Brit, I took it upon myself to compile a list of some typically British things! Here you go folks ;) They're not very exciting though! :lol:

~ Cups o'tea
~ Talking about the weather
~ Eccentric swearing
~ Waiting in queues/complaining about having to wait in queues
~ Tramping places in the rain
~ Predicting the exact time of arrival at your destination whilst in the car

There are manymany more!

If we're going for being typically British, I think "Understating excessively" should be added to the list. :P

Hello chaps.
I am officially a member of this club though i did join many moons ago.

Something that I just wanted to say...
ITS ALL CHANGED!! I mean to say, just look at it! Its GREEN!!!!!

I think sarcasm should be added, along with rugby, the Queen (God save her) and eccentricity generally.
