If you've ever known a Brit, you've probably been jealous of their sense of humor.
British humor is full of sarcasm, insults, self-deprecation, taboo subjects, puns, innuendo, and wit. And there's a Twitter account that perfectly captures all of it.
With 245K followers, No Context Brits is a fun online project that -- just like the Brits themselves -- mocks just about everything.
But it's not meant to shock or offend anyone. On the contrary. It offers laughter as a form of medicine for those moments when life knocks you down and tries to keep you down.

The creator of No Context Brits told Bored Panda they have run "a few successful Twitter accounts specializing in British humor and thought one that encapsulated a combination of all of them would go down well, especially considering the current mood of the country, which isn’t particularly great at the best of times."
So far, the account has gained 245K followers in just under 2 months, attracting attention from countless well-known names and companies as well.

isn't it the London signature, not the whole UK? at least that's how I used to see this.
Ricky Gervais, the legendary English actor, comedian, director, producer, and writer, who is best known for co-creating the British television mockumentary sitcom The Office, says that Americans are more "down the line" than their friends across the ocean. "They don't hide their hopes and fears," Gervais wrote. "They applaud ambition and openly reward success."
He believes Brits are more comfortable with life's losers. "We embrace the underdog until it's no longer the underdog. We like to bring authority down a peg or two. Just for the hell of it."
"Americans say, 'have a nice day' whether they mean it or not. Brits are terrified to say this. We tell ourselves it’s because we don’t want to sound insincere but I think it might be for the opposite reason. We don’t want to celebrate anything too soon. Failure and disappointment lurk around every corner. This is due to our upbringing. Americans are brought up to believe they can be the next president of the United States. Brits are told, "It won’t happen for you.'"
And it's really visible on No Context Brits. If you pay attention, the account will show you the cultural background of an entire country through humor. And that's quite something.

Seagulls can be really scary. Once i was walking innocently with my dog and suddenly he was jumping in the air, frantically. I was like WTF? I looked up and there was 2 seagulls attacking us, flying by my head. I realized that we were passing by a dead young seagull in the street gully. I just bent over and ran as fast as i could, folded in two. Hitchcockian nightmare! Poor grieving parents were still protecting the corpse of their child.

I also had a clean shirt in the car :D

Do get slightly longer in bed as there’s no commute, and no need to spend ages getting ready. And i’m much more relaxed working in my own little space at home, As for someone with anxiety sometimes just being in the office and around people can take a lot of energy. BUT I have found I don’t tend to take any breaks and end up working slightly over my shift when I’m home. Maybe cos you’re not doing the coffee run or having little catch ups in the office. Overall, I am very glad tho that businesses seem to be taking a flexible approach, and being able to split my week half at home and half in the office has been really beneficial for me! How is everyone else finding it?

My work has been remote since last March due to Covid, as we have conditions such that going in to work even between the first and second waves was not really feasible. I've been loving it, precisely because of the time saved off commute. I work on the computer all day anyway and zoom meetings function just fine, so my job is 100% as effective regardless of where I am. But they're making us go back in a month, apparently no flexibility for my boss he just desperately wants us back. Maybe down the road there will be options. I would love to do a 50/50 sort of thing, get to see people but not every day. I do miss some of my work friends. But sooo nice to sleep in an extra half hour each day! I will miss it.

Rode on a lot of buses. Bus drivers always acknowledge other bus drivers, even drivers of other municipal vehicles. When travelling a bus, I think how would I salute another bus driver. I would probably use a variety of hand salutes, probably depending on the individual I was saluting to. Obviously, certain hand salutes are inappropriate.
Sarah Lishman 4 years ago
I'm a bus driver, and you can tell a lot about how the other driver likes you, just by their wave. Nearly every bus driver will acknowledge each other, but the higher and faster the wave, the more they like you. I have custom waves for close friends; one chap gets a military salute, another guy gets (if safe!) a two handed wave. I also will wave/befriend people who have influence on my progress on the road, such as construction workers in charge of traffic lights, and lollipop people (crossing guards)

Nothing wrong with Greggs, they sell more coffee than anyone else and their Mexican bandit baguette is very delicious.

It's not the cough that will carry you off, but it is a coffin they'll carry you off in.

Ahh, that's what my grandad always used to say. I used to carry that torch on for him and say it whenever anyone coughed, but it all got a bit too real since 'rona arrived.

Can you even imagine that scenario? "Hey, I'm sorry - this is Dr Stern calling to let you know your chart got mixed up with another patient's! FRED Wickham is the one with six months to live. YOU just need a course of antibiotics. I hope you didn't do anything rash, haha..."

Not usually, but people sometimes plan ahead to try and keep costs for their surviving relatives down.

Oh what's the thing with divorce decisions? A (former) friend split up with his girlfriend and son's mothers and turned crazy. Like talking about her all the time, insulting her and he got several huge ugly tatoos, and brand new fake hair transplant. Meanwhile he's not rich and didn't saved any money for his sons future. Like i said FORMER friend. I mean i get it, he felt miserable (after cheating for years...), i tried to support him for months but putting your own "needs" before your child is so selfish and wrong. I even put my animals needs before mine, i really don't get it. He was like "we are friends for 20 years? you don't want to ruin our friendship!". "Yes i totally will, the person you become will never be my friend".

This isn't really a contest either but a 'challenge', a US-style "expensive ludicrous-sized meal that's free if you finish it". Why do people hate their bodies so much?
Load More Replies... Steve Barnett 4 years ago
Sorry, but I am big on this. What happened to the leftover food? Was it eaten by someone else or just thrown away? I couldn’t order a ‘challenge’ like this without believing that I could eat it all. I don’t enter ‘challenges’ like this because I can’t. Please, don’t waste food.

Not sure if its the same everywhere, but in my country food challenges are like: you win, you dont pay and have an extra prize; you pay and take the leftovers. Hope this is the case, I hate food waste.
