I always wanted to be a Brit, ever since I was a child. I used to play the Britons in AoEII, my granny was British, I have books about Britain. I always took a keen interest in their empire building and domination of the sea.

Britain truly is the greatest country in the world, and I will die by its side if I became a citizen.

But I have to face the fact that I probably won't become a British citizen due to being an American NEET. How do I cope with this, brothers?

You get a job in Britain.
That means you first get a job, preferably one in high demand in the UK, then you get hired there.
Easy.

But they want university graduates and I haven't the slightest clue of how to obtain a degree that would get some traction with British employers.

If your granny is British then you can probably get citizenship if you so desire, but you won't understand our habits and manners.

1)If you see somebody you know in public but you have not arranged to meet them- avoid them at all costs, for you will find it embarrassing and awkward and be unsure about how to greet them or if to.
If you do say hello you must avoid at all costs bumping into them again
If you share a train and you don't know them well, you must take a different train.

2)If you don't catch someone's name you can never speak to them again

3) Never say what you mean exactly , there are phrases to express everything in a more understated and polite way
"you have to excuse them mess"- i spent 7 hours cleaning
"Sorry is anyone sitting there?"-move your bag
"well this is fun"- i hate this
"right"-used before any statement of intent, especially when saying you should be leaving

4)If your hairdresser ruins your hair you tell them its fine

5) tap your fingers at the cashpoint so everyone else knows the situation is out of your hands

6) waiting for permission to go after paying with exact change

7)forming queues for everything

8) Glaring at people and stewing in silent anger (but NEVER saying anything) when people jump queues or do something irritating


4)If someone sits next to you on the train you can now not eat whatever you were eating

5) You can't turn around or wait without first looking at your phone in order to not appear conspicuous

6)If you accidentally enter a shop yu cannot immediately leave, you must pretend to look around

7)If you do enter a shop to have a look around you are obliged to buy something if the shopkeeper sees or talks to you.
If you break these rules you will be exiled to australia

Why are Brits so Autistic?

Do Brits make white lies a lot to try to make things better or less awkward somehow?

I just remember on Gavin and Stacy when Gavin's mum lied about being a vegetarian and then went through great lengths to play up to the farce.

Oi Bongs, my parents spent close to 20 years abroad in the UK, and I was born there. Would I be eligible for citizenship if I applied? (My dad didn't apply for citizenship or residency or whatever was necessary to make me a full citizen)
>>
>>67517194
>that last point
It's actually true. We're perfectly happy walking straight out of a shop even if the shopkeeper is being nice. We say "Oh, no thanks, I was just looking"
We're savages.

If its possible I will swap places with you.

My housemate from Manchester drunkenly told a taxi driver she was vegan - she then saw him around town while she was eating a sausage roll and was so ashamed she committed to veganism for life.
