Oh there's no doubt about it. brits are rude, bad at socialising and prone to loutish behaviour.

But we make up for that by not being irrepressibly corny at every opportunity.

It's not fake. Lots of Americans are just genuinely happy nice people who care about each other

Right wing cold selfish egotism of nor caring about anyone or anything other then yourself right now is commonplace in the UK

Honestly, it's like 20% of the time. Common enough that is doesn't surprise you when it happens but hardly the norm.

I like small talk. It lifts your spirits and makes people laugh in shared humanity

People not taking to each other and being cold, harsh, bitter, angry and miserable all the time is terrible for society and mental health

And the dominant right wing government/worst knife crime rate in the world demonstrates that I think

The fact you think people :
barely have the patience to give you the time on a good day,

is a positive says it all really

You won't find that in the US outside of the worst parts of the worst cities

Lol well this is a complete lie especially considering their stances on someone engaging them in any manner

But I agree, small talk is just 'let's just bullshit together', it doesn't mean anything - I don't even tend to look at conversations in those ways anymore because sometimes the best parts of life aren't the most important moments or the most heavy of conversations. I am incredibly grateful anytime someone takes the time to just indulge me or ask me to indulge them.

It's like yeah, I could be with my headphones on but then I miss all the other sweet sounds of life >_>

just never forget that you can also be a friendly asshole too

whatever, the BRITISH PPL are BASED

Or just walked a British street. I've had so many conversations with random folk just out and about. Plenty of folk are happy to chinwag, just most people don't give a shit about small talk and will give you a generic response and move on if that's all you have to offer.

Chavs or whatever shouting abuse is nothing unique to Britain and will find people like that in any country.

If I say that to soneone I want an honest answer

Much better than getting racial abuse screamed at you from across the street or 30 people standing in complete silence with their heads cast down in a monument to abstract misery not seen in a first world country since the 2nd world war

If you talk to Polish or Romanian or German or Pakistani or Indian immigrants in the UK, most of whom actually have reasons to be miserable due to poverty pushing them from their homes or daily abuse suffered, they are not like that. They're happy and friendly too, just like Americans

it really is a UK cultural thing

I'm constantly going to the movies and I've never seen anyone clap. This stereotype mostly comes from nerds that are so entrenched in franchise love that they're there opening showing of opening night, they're an extreme outlier and I don't understand why people think it happens at more than maybe 1% of showings.

Englishemen don't clap unless it's a football game or someone drops a glass in the pub.
