met a really racist person who was like all non-real british people should be deported and i said what makes someone real and he was like if both their families have been here since the 1700s and i said you know what. i can get behind deporting the king. and he didnt like that response.
My favorite response to someone being racist is a slightly less modern (but opposite) form of their racism.
Bloody beaker folk, coming over here.
If you speak this dirty foreign language called Ænglisc you can fuck right off back to Saxony or Denmark.
If you ain’t Pict you can get ficked.
Ní Peitikech sin.
If they can’t trace their family line back to early 1066, they aren’t real Brits.
They also have to be fluent in original English (Celtic). This Germanic originating crap they speak now was brought by immigrants.
Celtic? Dang bro, you going back to pre–Anglo-Saxons, even pre-Roman Britain!
Romans were occupiers too. I mean, what did the Romans ever do for them?
The aqueduct?
Who needs aquaducts when you can stand in a swamp for days?
Well, you could build a castle in that swamp…
A couple of roads, a couple of baths, plus a million or two rabbits.
Yes, the Aqueducts, the roads, a couple of baths and a million or two rabbits. But besides that, what have the Romans ever done for us?
Yes, the aqueduct. But other than the aqueduct, what have the Roman’s ever do for them?
:D
Not to speak of that Nouveau Riche gang coming from Rome.
Funnily enough even though I’m American. We traced our family tree back to 835 AD on one side of the family, and 1650 on the other side. Both sides of the family were here in the new world by 1640.
Am Australian. So wish I had EU grandparents so I could get.citizenship and leave this shithole.
I don’t know why you got the downvotes, maybe I’m missing something. If that’s true, that’s pretty impressive to have that far back in some type of documentation. My surname trail goes cold after going from the US back to Britain in the early 1700s.

yeah in 1065 they were ragin
That song seems frustratingly confused. The Anglo-Saxons migrated to the British Isles after the Romans had departed. Caesar would have encountered the earlier Celtic Britons (who were also the ones sometimes believed to have painted themselves with woad).
Lol apparently 300 years (plus or minus) is the cut of for being a real British.
That’s just enough generations living in the isle to figure it how to use ‘innit’.
People who don’t use punctuation are “vibe writing.” Vibe Readers are gifted. I am not gifted.
Idk if this helps, but most of the time someone writes without punctuation, it’s because they’re writing as if they were speaking.
So in this case, it can be read as someone spouting the whole thing as a single sentence without stopping (except for the self quotes). I do, however, acknowledge that it is way easier to read this if you are neurotypical and know how people’s writing style is correlated to the way the speak.
Thanks. It doesn’t help me personally. Punctuation is literally there to help express tone and add context to written language. It shows pauses, end of thoughts, whether something is phrased as a question…etc., etc.
I just kinda fill in the punctuation if there isn’t any tbh
Met a really racist person who was like: “All non-real british people should be deported”. I said: “What makes someone real?”; and he was like: “If both their families have been here since the 1700s”. I said: “You know what, I can get behind deporting the king.” and he didnt like that response.
So much better. And I appreciate that you really went for the full blown punctuation, using all the tricks in the book, well done.
I vibe write all the time but I have to correct it before I can let anyone see it
Which you forgot to do here.
Fuck the hanoverians though, worst kings ever. They should’ve gone back to Germany before losing us the American colonies and losing my personal fortune on the south sea bubble.
Poor guy…you lost your fortune in the South Sea bubble? That’s terrible! Hey…what were you invested in, specifically?..
