I love how the English get upset about how Americans use different terms

It’s like they think they own the language or something.

We're not upset, merely contemptuous. It's the same watching Americans try to use a knife and fork.

@VSonMe The hand swapping is quite funny.

@tallpowerhouseblonde it's like they are copying what their mommy did for them. Cut up all the food into bite-sized chunks then let them eat it with a fork.

@VSonMe They cannon spell properly either.Colour,armour and centre for example,and why lug nuts?Wheels have wheel nuts.

@tallpowerhouseblonde might wanna check your spelling when ranting about spelling just saying.

@St0ut My spelling is correct.That was my point.Americans changed the spelling.Still if grey gets spelled wrong in the US there is not much chance of colour being spelled right by American.Grey has been spelled with an e since 700AD so Americans then change the spelling to gray.
@VSonMe 😆 I’m American and think what you said is hilarious.

@tallpowerhouseblonde Lol. Read it again slowly girl start from the beginning. Lol.
Of corse we changed it to gray. Because it’s a color.

@St0ut I think you need to work on your sense of humour.Americans even had to copy English names for their own cities and states.New England?New York,Boston.Stop copying!!!!
