    Where to escape from Brits?

    Is there anywhere on this planet where i can go for a weeks break and have absolutely no danger of bumping into British people?

    You can go to the ends of the earth and you'll inevitably come across expats or tourists from the UK..

    Go to the most beautiful, exotic secluded areas on the planet and you'll inevitable come across that horrible vile common Yorkshire/Barnsley accent usually moaning about food not being like good ol' fashioned "English grub". It's happened to me.. bad memories.

    What a hoary old chestnut that is. Outside of the well beaten tourist trail I doubt it very much.

    Doubt they'd be from "oop north" though.
    Surrey or Berkshire would be my guess.
    Falling asleep and waking up is not the same as passing out and coming to.

    Sounds to me like you have an inferiority complex. Whats up, cant you stand honest down to earth people?

    Why don't you stick your head up or is it oop your arse you wont hear anything then.It's my understanding people like yourself feel more secure and are more comfortable in that position anyway.

    I think you might be better just ending it all and topping yourself.

    You hate Brits. You hate black people. You hate muslims. You hate everything that is basically not hate same as you are. Even then I would imagine you find reasons to hate them as well.

    So, time for you to vacate your flesh sack and come back when you are a little more tolerant.

    Easy tiger my thread is meant to be taken slightly tongue in cheek.. i am British myself..
    I don't hate anyone

    Perhaps you'd be more suited to Migrant-Rights and Anti-Racism forums where you can preach tolerance to your hearts content

    So there are not enough threads on here then that turn into a yank v brit shit fight that you felt the need to start another one?

    Nah, top yourself. Go on - reduce your carbon foot print the old fashioned way. Do the planet a favour.

    Ohhh, i know, volunteer yourself to replace a hostage in Afghanistan. Then, your racism and vileness will anger them so much they will cut your head off. You can die thinking how much you hate muslims and happy days - perfect for you.
