Have you noticed that British people get accused of "stirring the pot" when we place greater importance on British things than American things?
Is there a valid reason for this? The world doesn't revolve around America.

Speaking as an American, we don't care what the British are doing or what pot you're stirring.

I don't care where anyone is from if they're stirring the pot I'll call it like I see it. Actually I've learned a lot more about British things because of some of the British people who post on this site. Some are very kind and good people. One in particular comes here to cause trouble, but I would never assume all British people are like her. I've met too many kind and good Britts to let one bad apple ruin the whole bunch. America is a small country, and a young one, but there is no denying we are the most influential country in the world. Just google it. Still everyone is entitled to their opinion. Even if they are wrong.

Urban Spaceman If you mean who I suspect you mean, she doesn't come here to cause trouble but you caused trouble with her. Unless you mean someone else, of course.

I haven't had a problem with British people. My best friend on social media is British. I also know an AB member by the name of Creamcrackered who is British. Both are kind and generous. It's Americans who are always stirring the pot. You can tell how vulgar and ungrateful they are by their answers. This is why Canadians hate us, you can't trust Mexico, Central and South America as our neighbors, and the Brits are not far away from hating us too if they continue to get belittled. As Americans, we are supposed to care for our neighbors, especially Great Britain who are the US's closest ally.

I'm guessing it's because the Americans think the world revolves around them, but we know it doesn't.

The world has revolved around us since 1776. -

You might think so, but you're wrong. -

We're the most influential country in the world! Just google it! I didn't make this stuff up! -

Moodswings, the US is the most influential country in the way that all races contribute to the country. That is how America has survived. Soon, Russia, China, North Korea, Iran and many other countries worldwide will not agree with the US being the world's superpower in the near future. Without Great Britain and our allies, it will be the US against the world. Then if we're still here to talk about it, chances are slim and none if we do have a voice. -

@Mood - since even the people here that complain about the US never seem to leave while we still have the highest immigration rate, I'd say we're doing pretty good. You're not still bitter over getting beaten up by us pesky colonists, are ya? -

Moodswings, deport 1 immigrant and that immigrant will come back to the country with 10 more immigrants. Deport those 10 immigrants and they will come back to the country with 100 more immigrants. When I was stationed in South Korea in the mid-Millennium, I saw more races than I ever imagined seeing in the US Army. Gotta love the diversity of the US. LMAO

What makes you think Britts are so special? Why Archie and I were accused of stirring the pot just the other day! And as far as I know neither of us are Britts. So... Do you have any other lame theories you'd like to throw out there to make you look thuper thmart? Or just to stir the pot if you like....

Maybe they're still pissed about that Tea Party thing over in Boston. -

Yeah, the American rebellion. If I'm not mistaken the guy they were calling a pervert may have been a Britt too! lol Maybe we should ship them a sense of humor... -

The word is Brits, not Britts. I don't care what you personally think of us, but at least have the decency to get the spelling right.
