We 'USians' like our simplicity; you Brits apparently like custom. A lot of English words are filled with unnecessary letters, so we try our best to remove what we can. You, on the other hand, like to keep every letter that can possibly be saved! You like the monarchy and the House of Lords, whereas we see those institutions as superfluous. And you make your women wear those awfully hideous hats, while we (thankfully) got rid of them a long time ago. :)

I don't view British culture with the disdain of the original poster; in fact, I'm often fascinated by British culture, simply because it's so different and un-American! And while I see the previous IP's post as tasteless, I think that we should approach each other's cultures not with bitterness, but rather with jest.
