How British are you?

Post by Gob »


You got: As British as Stephen Fry walking a corgi outside Buckingham Palace

You’re awkward. You’re easily embarrassed. You’re sickeningly polite. You’re as British as they come!

There aren’t many more British (or awkward) than you. The Empire is lucky to have you!

I wasn't surprised by my result - I was raised by folks not far removed, despite hundreds of years, from their British behavioral roots. Some of the indoctrination is a strength, but some of it really sucks.

eta: I really like tea, so that part is cool.

It was along the lines of not British which probably means you're more well adjusted.

yes, but, the biggest criticism of Costner's Robin hood was the complete failure to speak in a British accent.

In other words a completely unconvincing Brit
