Worst people in the world

[Napster]

I felt Ultimate Frisbee was a bit silly at uni.

I played it once at uni because i was bored. everyone else was american. It was so dull.

I work with Americans, local and international and they are indeed the worst people in the world. In no particular order I give you

The 'right to bear arms'
The worst political system in the develope world (money buys you everything)
"USA USA USA"
Ambulance chasing
White teeth
Choose the sex of your baby
Fast food
Squeezy cheese
The Hollywood, OK magazine world that half the world seems to 'aspire to'

Best thing about Americans? Proportionately few of them have passports.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Choose the sex of your baby

Is that actually legal?

 

[Pubey]

Adults who queue for autographs at centre court.

The people wanting Kyrgios banned for his behaviour today.

Britain First. "We're going to hold a ballot of our members to see where we should march next." How about Mosul, you ****ing ****ehawks.

 

[Benfleet A1]

Belgium's. That is all.

You are all wrong, the worst people in the world are the scum that gets in a taxi then they want to stop at a kebab shop, complain that the meter has been running while they have been in the kebab shop, then they spill half the kebab over the back seats while yelling insults at people in the street and also at the driver. Then at their destination they take ages to find the right money and half the time they haven't got all the money.

You missed out shouting 'Get in the hole!' Every 3 seconds at golf tournaments...

To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen... Elizabeth II:


To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen... Elizabeth II:

( Not meant for those lacking a sense of humor, and or those that refuse to read a note in its entirety before making a comment)

In light of your immediate failure to financially manage yourselves and also in recent years your tendency to elect incompetent Presidents of the USA and therefore not able to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up 'revocation' in the Oxford English Dictionary.)

Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas , which she does not fancy).

Your new Prime Minister, David Cameron, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections.

Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated sometime next year to determine whether any of you noticed.

To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:

1. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'colour,' 'favour,' 'labour' and 'neighbour.' Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping half the letters, and the suffix '-ize' will be replaced by the suffix '-ise.'Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. (look up 'vocabulary'). (I love that one)


Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises such as ''like' and 'you know' is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as U.S. English. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take into account the reinstated letter 'u'' and the elimination of '-ize.' ' (I love that one too)

3. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday.

4. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be used for shooting grouse. If you can't sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you're not ready to shoot grouse.

5. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. Although a permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.

6. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.

7. The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been calling gasoline) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it.)

8.You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar.

9. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as Lager. New Zealand beer is also acceptable, as New Zealand is pound for pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth - see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion.

10. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters. Watching Andie Macdowell attempt English dialogue in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one's ears removed with a cheese grater.

11. You will cease playing American football. There are only two kinds of proper football; one you call soccer, and rugby (dominated by the New Zealanders). Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies).

12. Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played outside of America . Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. You will learn cricket, and we will let you face the Australians (World dominators) first to take the sting out of their deliveries.

13. You must tell us who killed JFK. It's been driving us mad.

14. An internal revenue agent (i.e. tax collector) from Her Majesty's Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all monies due (backdated to 1776).

15. Daily Tea Time begins promptly at 4 p.m. with proper cups, with saucers, and never mugs, with high quality biscuits (cookies) and cakes; plus strawberries (with cream) when in season.

God Save the Queen!

It's these lot, isn't it?

I can get my head around them taking a ball game from a fantasy book/film series and playing it in real life, but what is with the broom stick? Why add an element of 'i'm flying/make believe?!' You are literally the worst people in the world, and that includes ISIS and Ultimate Frisbee players.

sorry/not sorry if you or a loved one plays real life quiddich.

Well, seeing as I'm probably the only one on this forum who actually knows what the hell he's talking about here, I'm gonna jump in and say that I'd rather play quidditch than most other sports. They're a genuinely good lot, they're the only sport I know of that doesn't segregate male and female players (or use the "mixed" designation), heck they actually state that all teams must be as gender equal as possible in the continually evolving rulebook. Yes, the brooms are a bit unnecessary, and some could say they're a bit weird, but they don't care about that, they just want to play. The community is fantastic, and I can guarantee you won't get a tenth of the trouble or general ****ishness you get at a football game, from both the fans and the players. This isn't a fad or a tiny thing, it's growing bigger every year, and it's not stopping. I don't see why anyone should laugh at a group of people doing what they think is fun just because they think it looks silly. I'm sure football got the same treatment before that took off.

I'd actually rather have a ticket to the quidditch world cup (yes, that's a thing. There's european and UK versions too) than the football one. At the quidditch I can see any game I want as the ticket covers the whole event, instead of one game, I know it's safe, which I can safely say Brazil, Russia and Qatar won't be, and I know that I will have fun watching a group of fans of the game who get nothing out of it besides the fact that they participate in the best event in their sport instead of gdtting bored watching a bunch of guys who are playing for their next big transfer.

In short, if you think it's silly, fine, I don't mind. Just don't sit there laughing at those that don't, because at the end of the day, they're doing it to have fun. I don't laugh at you for your pastimes, don't laugh at me for mine.

Although I will admit, whoever sorts out their media and press relations needs shooting because **** me thier YouTube channel's a mess. And, really QUK, is it that hard to find a commentator for matches? I know it's not hard to set up a scorecard graphic. That would be great. Just saying.

Holy sweet Jesus. You're pulling our plonkers, right?

 

[SonicShrimper]

Nope. I actually tried to join the QUK media department on a volunteer media role, they never did Skype me back...

I am lost as to why they did not.

Couldn't you just disapparate?

[Jam_Man]

The game in the movie makes no sense, how its supposed to make sense in the real world where you cant fly around on brooms I have no idea.

 

[GBJ]

That game looks like a mixture of Aussie rules (crap), basketball (also crap) and housework (undeniably crap)

I mean seriously, running around with a broomstick between your legs? :hilarious:

 

[Jam_Man]

And then if you catch the little gold flying thing you win and the rest of the game was pointless.

You can tell a woman devised the rules.

Come on Sonic, this is ShrimperZone. The very best way to get your todger pulled, is by asking people not to. But you know that really.
