The hardest people to understand are americans who think theyre gangsters and say "YARRR MEEEN?" all the time.


I dont get it....and I dont say that, you'd get your ass kicked for saying something like that actually...


Who would kick his ass for saying that? What the hell are you talking about? The gangsters in down town LA? Y

I'm pretty sure it's that, and I think it's funny (because it's kinda pathetic IMO), too.
Try to say, it...you'll hear it sounds a bit like YARRR MEEEN.

Red neck, because I can speak it fluently. Actually this would go well with a militia type character that uses a shotgun or the supposed obsolete MA5B. Or Japanese, because it is an easy accent for me to hear through and understand(no matter how thick it is)

Not all Americans think like that. Trust me if we all relied on stereotypes then all of us over here would own and gun and would want to slit every throat that got in our way. I know not all of you eat crumpets and I'm pretty sure alot of you have gotten sick of tea. Now what you need to do is go kill Vampires in the name of the Church and Her Majesty. Yeah that ought to do it. (I am referring to the manga/anime Hellsing for this, go Britan!)

The only person who actually speaks like the stereotype is the queen and we all know shes gonna die someday so that old accent is soon to be extinct.

Why does everyone think that us Brits all talk like the Queen (stereotypical'British' accent)?

Has any foreigner heard of 'Up North'? Like Yorkshire for example? A Yorkshire accent is the furthest you can get from the stereotypical 'British accent'. We may be a small little island but we manage to cram more accents on it than all of the USA.

A few examples are: 'Yorkshire', 'Lancashire', 'Mersey (Scoucer)', 'Londoner', 'Southener' and 'Jordie'.
These are completely different from each other BUT ALL are nothing like the typical 'British' accent.

AND That's just a few examples of ENGLAND. There's bound to be more in WALES, SCOTLAND, IRELAND and Nr. IRELAND.

I hate it in films where directors pick 'the typical British accent'. Its just so wrong. We know that every single American doesn't talk like the people in the TV series 'Friends', so we don't copy it into our films. Yet the Americans do it to us Brits.

I would be very disappointed if the British got ONE single accent, rather than a selection of a couple.

Come on. If you put a scouce, a Yorkshire, a red-neck, an Italian, a Canadian, an Indian, a French an African and a Mexican accent in Halo 2, would that not create a more believable sense of the whole world united as one against the Covenant?

It is a shame you do not know the full power of the United States Military. We are the most advanced and well equiped out there. France will fall easilly, Britan would give a good fight, but even then they will fal from constant air strikes and our super massive Navy, China would be easy (even though they our number us), Russia would take a while, and the rest of the world would crumble at our feet. We have the best weapons, equipment, and tactics yet. The only problem we have is occupation forces. Our numbers are insufficent to do so. Other than that if we go full on attack and don't give a damn about buildings and civilians then we could take over the world. Period. We have land warrior, Soldier 2025, Star Wars, the best nukes, precision guided weapons that are upgraded weekly, a battlenet that is kick ass, we are working on rail guns for our tanks, and even laser weapons for our air craft. So eat that world.

Listen mate NASA spent millions of your dollars creating a pen which would write upside down for use in space

They finally had the solution by using a nitrogen propelled ink so that it would keep going downwords to the tip

And what did the russians do

They used a pencil

So i think ive made my point just by that
