50 Funny Times Brits Was Caught Just Being Brits, As Shared In This Group (New Pics)
InterviewFrom the London skyline to skipping the “t’s” in a bunch of words (think “bottle of water” in an English accent,) the UK has cemented itself in our collective psyche, one way or another. But actually living in Britain isn’t just Harry Potter-esque castles and endless crumpets with tea, as we can now learn through the magic of the internet.
The “Casual UK” group is a place for Brits to share those little moments that can only be found in the UK. English streets, mug comparisons, and complaints about eccentric neighbors all make an appearance. We also reached out to British comedy writer and stand-up comedian Davina Bentley to learn more. So get comfortable, maybe get a cup of tea and be sure to upvote your favorite posts.

Received From My Landlady This Morning, They Aren’t All Bad
That's incredibly sweet. Inflation and increases in rent have been hurting so many people around the world. I truly miss the gorgeous flat my friends and I lived in in Scotland over a decade ago-- that flat's rent would probably go for an arm and a leg now. I live and work in the U.S. now and rent prices here give me anxiety.
Considering the cost of electricity, heating & everything that goes on a shopping list has been on the rise in 2023 alone; to have such a considerate landlord/landlady is an absolute blessing! If only there were more people like her. 🥹💖🙌
My landlord at the time did the same thing. Brilliant people, absolute angels
Such a lovely story, with all the s*** we see and read on a daily basis, it's amazing to see something like that : ) : )

Load More Replies...Bored Panda got in touch with UK comedy writer and stand-up comedian Davina Bentley to ask some questions about humor and comedy in Britain compared to the rest of the English-speaking world. After all, despite similarities in language, everything from media to stand-up has its own nuances from place to place.
“English humor is bleaker. It’s less earnest than say American humor and it’s weirder. Because British people are particularly idiosyncratic and English humor reflects that. We like things a bit gritty and unpolished.”

I was working in retail in Sydney when 9/11 happened. The next day the shopping center was so very quiet, hardly any people out. Even here in Australia, people were glued to the TV with the aftermath

We also wanted to hear what she thought were some of the most visible differences between how Brits approach “funny” characters, in comparison to, say, Americans. “The characters. English culture doesn’t always celebrate “winners” or jocks, it sometimes celebrates “losers” and I think that could be a struggle. To make sense to a US audience, Tim from the office had to be “glowed up” from Martin Freeman to John Krasinski.”

Went To The Tropical Butterfly House Yesterday And This Fella Was Mocking Me
I always knew those flamingos were judgmental and mocking buggers. Hah hah, I love the man's expression.

Not just flamingoes though, lots of birds stand on one leg. I'm willing to bet that the chap in the wheelchair wasn't as angry as he looked.

Solid burn, Mimi. I bet Tom wishes you were there when his wife said that.

Meanwhile - Stonehenge - "35 tonnes – the weight of the largest sarsen stones (the uprights of the Great Trilithon). 20 tonnes – the average weight of the sarsen circle uprights"
Isn't anybody else shocked by the fact that this lady never heard about Stonehenge? O.O Being a foreigner isn't an excuse, I am Italian and learned about it in elementary school.
yeah i learned about it watching the movie brave when i was in kindergarten
Load More Replies...His "Egyptian" wife is probably not descended from the kemetans who built the pyramids and other architecture there.
This is an inference on my part. One could say that the OP's wife was claiming racial or ethnic superiority due to her alleged relation to the builders of the pyramids. Which to a lot of people is in question of did the Egyptians actually build them. Much like Machu Pichu or Puma Punku which were built by people long before the people that mainstream archeologists give credit to. Just saying.

On A Conference Call…my 14yr Old Daughter Presented Me With This Note To Avoid Disturbing Me
You can't imagine how incensed, confused and annoyed I am, since I found out that kids these days in schools where i live aren't even being taught cursive writing anymore. That is more than lame. Why not just forego school altogether and just let them be guided through life with a search and an AI. Grrrr!
Load More Replies...Yes, yes they will. But after September they won’t accept postage stamps with her head on them.
That's nothing to do with the change of monarch though. The Post Office is changing the rules so that no stamps can be used unless they have a barcode.

It is good to know it's in the men's loo too. Not all victims of sexual assault are female.
Load More Replies...In the US you can ask for an Angel Shot at the bar and it means the same thing.
Is it a different name than the sign in the ladies’ room? If it’s the same, it runs the risk of having both people know the code, defeating the purpose of the secrecy thing.
This doesn’t matter. You aren’t going to your sketchy date and telling them “I’m going to ask for Angela/Bob” you go to the bar and quietly talk to a member of staff. Even if your sketchy date overhears you and knows the code, they can’t do anything or the police will be called. It’s simply a discreet mechanism for avoiding an unpleasant or concerning situation.
Load More Replies...I don't get out much, but the few places I've been to lately have different posters in the women's rooms (Canada), VERY detailed ones about ordering a certain drink if you need the police or another kind if you just need to get away from your date for whatever reason.
But if these posters are everywhere, everybody knows about this, including the people one tries to sneak away from. The idea is brilliant, but I have doubts by putting it into practise
You go to the bar alone to order a drink, the staff will then know you need assistance and will take action

A group of nuns went passed and were looking at us puzzled, when one came over and asked what out costume was (this was outside the cinema). We simultaneously said “Oh, we’re the hills, and we’re alive with music!” She walked back with her shoulders heaving with laughter, to,d her friends and they all roared. Great day!

A True Neighbourly British Complaint
In my country, if I send this letter to a neighbour, the sound will be double loud! My neighbour will take this as a challenge!
For all cun- sorry, participants in noise wars... I'm the one who cuts off the power to the whole building every time you start.
My mom and I did somewhat the opposite with the dude upstairs once. He had some sort of party going on and they had music. LOUD music. But my mom and I liked it so we went up there and when he opened the door he went into this sort of panic, thinking we were mad at the loud music. But instead we asked if we could borrow the cd (and we asked him to turn down the music just a tiny bit). It was a great cd. I don't recall any of it but for a week's time I was a big fan of whatever genre it was (house, perhaps?).
When I was 14ish, at home playing my stereo at dinner, at times my dad would say "Turn That Down" I'd go to the stereo and turn it up just a bit for just a split second, and then back down to exactly where it originally was and ask "hows that?" It was always "That's better". he he he

A Facebook Post From My Local Pub Last Night
Poor not Biff, I hope they found/will find (idk what year it was) the owner of the cat they buried
Biff shed a tear, knowing that his owners would make sure he had a good send off when he goes. 'Well, 8 lives left' he thought as he sniffed around his first grave
or alternate theory that was Biff and since Biff is a god he resurrected
My dad did this one, thought my sister friend had ran over and killed or cat, buried it in the garden. Then cat comes walking home next day, following nearby neighbuor asked if we'd seen there cat, Dad has to explained he's buried it in the garden. Story live on in family folklore

This is amusing but I'm wondering how the patron got the card. I'm guessing it came from bar staff/bartender. Couldn't the actual credit card have been returned instead?
You’re given this card right from the start, upon opening the tab.
Load More Replies...Okay, let me clarify. So right at the beginning of the night when you're still sober and you open a tab in the UK you have to leave your card behind the bar in exchange for another card. That helps the staff identifying which tab to add the drinks you (or your party) order and which card to use at the end of the night for settling the bill. People usually open a tab in a group setting. They could be splitting the bill evenly at the end or if the boss pays he can claim it back as petty cash etc. Opening a tab is quite standard in British drinking culture. When you wake up with a card like this it means you left your card at the pub and your bill is still not paid (unless you paid with a different card but then the staff would have known you had a tab when you paid for the bill and would have given your original card back). The staff didn't hold your card back because they thought you were too drunk and tried to protect it, but because you left without paying. Hope this helps :)
On the flip side is an offer for 50% off some breakfast when you return to collect your card. Who doesn't need a full British fry up with their hangover?! Brilliant piece of marketing as you're likely to return with your mates to get some scran!
They give that at the start of the evening and swap it back, returning the credit card they were holding. Too drunk to remember? This will help in the morning.

My Girlfriend Has Just Moved From Birmingham And Says My Village Is “Weird” For Having An Egg Vending Machine. She’s Wrong, Right..?
I’ve never seen one of these, where would an egg vending machine be located?
I think the question should be, "Why aren't there more egg vending machines in the world?"
These are great as they’re placed in locations which don’t have convenience stores nearby (whose eggs are disgusting anyway), and the locals don’t have to drive miles to a supermarket etc. plus, they’re farm eggs and therefore taste amazing.
impossible in my neighborhood, it would be vandalized in the day. it’s too bad because it’s convenient

Local Supermarket Has Started To Put A Protective Barrier Around The Employees Whilst They Put The Reduced Food Out On The Shelves. Out Of Shot Is A Horde Of Eager Pensioners Ready To Pounce
I used to work in a supermarket and I understand this completely. It's impossible to do your job when customers are leaning over you and breathing down your neck so they get get 20p off a packet of ham.
When I was a teen I worked in Safeway (bought by Morrisons). At one point they were selling 1Kg packets of castor sugar for some crazily cheap price, 10p a packet or something like that. All the nearby corner shop owners were coming to buy the sugar while the packets were still in their wrapping. 36 packets of sugar were wrapped up together. Eventually the store limited sugar to 2 packets per person and then eventually raised the price
Probably at 8 am too and they were already waiting outside at least 10 minutes before opening.
Geese. Price then up out the back where customers can’t get at you. Walk everything out on a trolley and stand back - let the assembled pensions have their way. Once they’re done, put the 3 or 5 remaining items on the shelf. Sorted, and you’re no longer wasting time putting g things out that won’t be there in 5 seconds anyway.
Food prices being what they are it is hard to blame shoppers, maybe price them in the back, poor workers.

Peak Pettiness Or Justifiable Security In The Office Kitchen?
i wil say sad necessity, in an old job, I was the lowest wage and I still had my food stolen :/
It'd be nice if the office could supply things like milk, and we don't need 40 gallons in there. As a person who does this for our multiple offices of different sizes, this kind of "perk" is really bare minimum, high ROI (return on investment) stuff. Long story short: I hate stingy companies.
They only people who call s**t like this petty are the ones stealing other peoples food, otherwise why would you care?

"... “bottle of water” in an English accent..." This bugs me.

Quick question for the British. Why does your bacon look like that? It's still very good, but it looks nothing like American bacon.
In the UK they have broadly speaking two types of bacon, streaky, which is like your American bacon but not usually so thinly cut, and back bacon which us like what you call Canadian. Both cuts are available in various cures, smoked, unsmoked, dry cured, etc. Not sure if you can still get it but there used to be what was called 'middle' bacon, simply the back and the streaky parts not cut off from each other. France labels streaky bacon as 'poitrine' which roughly means breast, and sometimes has something called bacon which is actually just the round centre of back bacon with all the fat trimmed off, intended to be eaten uncooked (though it's already cured).
