Why don't you just f*** off and die somewhere, you nasty piece of f***ing work.

I came to the US to get away from c***s like you, you small minded petty steaming pile of dog s***!

Have a nice day.

I come on here for a laugh, to see what is going on in the expat life. I have loads of American friends and enjoy life over here. I am more than capable of holding intelectual and political debate and often do - not sure that that is my reason for being on this site though? So why harrass others for doing so?

Having said that - great thread!

In some weak-willed little lives it may, but my attitude is to confront the landlord for serving such crap, and admonish the other patrons for drinking it and acting like scum.

Then things change

BTW, "A bit of fun" is all anyone is interested in these days. Which is why we have such moral decay, erosion of tradition and a nation of dickheads. My idea of fun is obviously quite different to yours Ray. In other words, I don't get my rocks off spending an afternoon on a forum making silly comments about how some Yanks don't know where London is.

Most of you have been in the States for months or years and you are STILL posting crap about "they say words differently here" and "hahahaha they call a pavement a sidewalk!!!!!!". Yes, that was all funny for the first three days I was here, then it became the norm. Change the record and get over it!!!

Good bye.

My wife's family are very different to mine. There is a great deal more emphasis on materialism, competition and a lot of inter-family bitches and arguments. Less favours, less kindness. The kind of people who will always expect something in return for a good deed.

Back in the UK, my family's attitude has always been "As long as you and your wife are together...and happy...thats all that matters, even if you live on the streets". The US 'family' however are very hard to please and seem to measure humanity in dollars.

I feel somedays that I swapped diamonds for dirt, but outside the family unit I am beginning to feel at home. I believe home is where you lay your hat.
