Well yes, the accent thing can be confusing for many Americans. Most don’t understand me when I say my name (Martin). I have to repeat myself about three times and I can tell that most of the time they still have no clue.
As for Yanks who hate the Brits – I’m sure they exist, but I’ve yet to come across any. I’m sure they’re in the minority.
The country code for Samoa is 685.
Why wasn’t my name on that original list?!
I’d not heard this one before, but I was flicking through a book in the ‘survival handbook’ series for parenting and at the back it had a list of parental phrases to learn…
You know, phrases like, “Because I said so” and “Life isn’t fair”.
There was a new one in there that I liked, “Too bad, so sad.” Has anyone heard of that one? I’m definitely keeping that in the memory bank.

Having lived in the States for the past 7+ years, I can tell you this – Americans love the Brits. Mainly for the accents. Oh, and I’d say the royal family is more popular in the US than in Britain. Ironic, really.
