I read a British People Magazine way back in the 90s (in England People Magazine is/was soft core porn) and they called nipples "norks" in it. "Her rubbery norks" is the phrase I remember. Anyways do they still call them norks and if they do could you stop them from doing that?

All I know is the videogame Homefront: The Revolution was made in this great country and uses it to refer to occupying North Korean soldiers.

It's a close tie between pickled onion and ketchup. If I have to pick one I'd probably say ketchup.

To be fair I was only able to find four flavors. Not bad considering how poo poo the food is here.

I've also noticed chavs seem to still be a thing. And Burberry.

Also I just saw a newsstand with a magazine called "Walking Magazine". How is there an entire magazine about this, presumably one that has been running for years and will continue to have subscribers?

Is there a magazine about sleeping too? Sleeping Magazine. This month's issue: closing your eyes and waiting.

Why are there so many loving magazines here still?

I mean I'm at the grocery store right now and there's gotta be 100 different goddamn magazines here. The US used to have FHM, Maxim, and Stuff, but those all naturally went away when broadband internet was invented.

But I'm sitting here staring at four different tit magazines. I mean I'm not complaining; this Lucy Pinder gal might be the hottest woman I've ever seen in my life, but it still perplexes me. Why is the paper magazine industry so bustling in the UK? I'd love to know the science behind it.

I mean I'm right now thumbing through four different video game magazines! FOUR! How the hell is that possible?? Do brits still get their game demos from cd ROMs?

Again not a complaint, just an observation that I would like some light shed onto.

Visiting the UK for the first time eh? You have Rick Mayall as your avatar- you know what that makes me think: you must be some sort of anglophile, making a pilgrimage to the homeland of your gurning bug-eyed king. So now you start to see the sellotape holding up Britain's facade- tea time and god save the queen gives way to a country of perverts and servile morons with politicians and war heroes like these:

What’s cool about Brexit is that the entire island could now sink into the ocean and once everyone else noticed a week or so later it would still have zero effect on anything other than making the world justifiably better. Shame about Northern Ireland but it’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

Are you sure? I bought the single and it came with a horribly compressed mpeg on the disc of the video but there was no nipples as far as I remember.


Also the most fun I had in England was landing by myself and having to wait for my friend in London cuz he lost his passport ten minutes before departure and I was tired as gently caress and took a four hour nap on a mattress in Harrod's. Top ten best naps.

I'm pretty sure it aired on a late night MTV special, the same sort of show that aired the fully uncut Smack My Bitch Up video by The Prodigy (the one showing heroin usage and running someone over.)

Are you here for xmas OP? If so, there's things you need to know:

1) Stand up for the Queen's speech and remain standing until it ends, or you will be stabbed.
2) People might have discussed potential gifts with you, even up to pointing items out in a shop or sending links to web stores. This is a polite formality. Everyone wants and expects to get an orange. Better gifters will disguise the orange as some other kind of present, but, when you unwrap it, it's an orange. Don't give anything else. Don't argue. It's tradition.
3) Xmas pudding is actually not bad. This is so shocking that it must be ritually burned.
4) If you have to have a conversation with distant relatives remember that suicide by cop is much harder here.
5) The local lord may visit and demand his rightful pick of the presents. He will leave if you give him an orange.

My favorite part of Freestyler was somehow nobody at the radio stations picked up on the blatant ‘who the gently caress is alice’ line, and it would always go out uncensored.
