Brits with bad teeth are the ultimate retards, considering quality dental care is much more affordable then the US. At least for now.

I can almost understand an American having bad teeth because $$$$$$$.

Good luck. I've been eating takeaway once a week here for a year, and found one good place.
When you get to 100+ takeaways within 10 miles they just don't bother, there's no point in competing. More customers will come anyway.

You just get bottom tier crap at London prices.

Maybe I'm biased. My only experience is staying with a cousin of mine for a week at a time while on vacation. His place is just a short walk away from a Tube station that takes me right to Euston from almost as far away as Watford.

I could easily be biased against it, too. There are some good places, there's just so much crap.

Hahahaa I will check that out. TY!

That's still better than the endless suburban sprawl where I live. Off-brand takeout gives you a chance to find something decent and/or cheap instead of the multitude of chains that don't vary their product at all.

its not like they're these cool little independent joints run by passionate undiscovered chefs. it's just gross cheap slop aimed at poor idiots. If 99% percent of my industry (and like, almost every other industry too) wasn't needlessly hyper-concentrated in god forsaken London and London only I'd be loving life in Bristol now.

Are they at least cheap like street food, or are they overpriced like all the chains and food trucks here?

Overpriced, and / or really bad generally.

At some events there's occasional good street food, but it's not widespread. It's more fun here as a visitor - train / tube / bus delays are a nightmare and driving here sucks balls.

If my work related venture here doesn't get me to the US in the next 12 months I'm moving to Bristol.

The amount of private security personnel in London was unsettling to me like 8 years ago. Saw so many cops with carbines, basically a shitload more guns on display than I see in freaking Texas.

Yes we would dude.

We voted in the pigfucker general. Our most sold newspaper is the Daily Mail. Building a wall against immigrants is what people hoped Brexit was for.

People actually listened to Farage.

As a german brexit is pretty loving funny to me, as it turns out that the disadvantage is almost all on the british side. So many people who depend on EU funds voted for brexit and I always get a kick out of seeing stupid people shooting themself in their own foot.

Also my roomie has friends from the UK who've studied EU politics for 3 years now and won't be able to work in their field after graduating because their dumbass people decided to quit the EU. So these people get ultra-hosed by brexit instead of just super-hosed.

also this is bang on accurate and really the biggest national embarrassment of the last few years, but goons are largely ignoring it and have for some reason fixated on takeaway food instead

"Tiny Trains"

England is like a 90's first person shooter in that everything is gray and brown. You see pictures of the great cities of europe and there's colour, red tile roofs, happy colours or crisp clean white buildings. Everything in england outside of some pastoral scene is this soul crushing brown or gray and everything looks wet and dirty all the time.

Greece's shockingly irresponsible spending had nothing to do with them being in the mess they are in, i agree

Edit: given what you think the EU is why on earth did you vote remain?
