Obviously you have never lived in a big city before and are intimidated easily. You'd probably be better off back in Pratt's Bottom.

Re: Differences between UK and USA culture/living
Just this morning I was shopping at a local "grocery store" and inadvertently grabbed someones buggy when they were using the rest room. The man came out and said "what the F### are you doing!", then he said "Get the F*** outta here" and retrieved the buggy from me.In the UK the guy would have just went and got another buggy, or maybe have said "excuse me sir" and politely ask for it back..The UK is much more civilised..I don't think thats even debatable.
lol - should have heard my husband being "more civilised" to the parking attendant at SeaWorld a week ago.....

Listen Rushman..I trained and fought out of the Butter Market Club in Shrewsbury. I can use me mitts..
You would have said "yes sir, i'm sorry sir" and handed over the buggy.

I'm proud that the UK is more civilised..You louts act like you're proud to get down in the gutter with the trash? Nothing could be more senseless..It's as if you are arguing that you are bigger degenerates than the Americans are?
Let me tell you something..In your cases- you'll get no argument from me!

Far from being a degenerate..I don't give anyone undeserved shit and I don't take anyones either.
If Mr Chicago had walked out of the restroom and said something like "Hey Buddy, thats my cart you've got there" or something equally polite (in the US sense of the word) I would've apologised and got another. However, like I said, if he gave me a mouthfull straight off the bat then he can either kiss my arse for his cart or I would go toe to toe in the supermarket. I wouldnt let him think I was some pussy that he could just shout down.

I'm not so insecure that I have to impose my will on everyone around me, or brag about how tough I am on the internet..Sounds like you 'people" have been thoroughly americanized..While I have maintained my dignity..

I would have told him to fluck off and asked to see his receipt.
