Seems to have deliberately taken the opposite path of anything British:

  • Drive on the wrong side of the road
  • The light and power switches are upside down
  • Weights & measures. Imperial? Ha!
  • Screw your English dictionary. Ima put z's everywhere, drop the letter u and randomly pronounce words like buoy so you think there's an animal in the water over there

It kinda makes me laugh to think about it as just anti-British ๐Ÿคฃ

yeah but America employs all the UK actors to teach us how to behave and think.

If British customs haven't rubbed off on America, can we not say the UK actors have not done a great job at promoting the UK?
