Found a new word called Teaboo today is this actually a thing?
Teaboo
Like a weeaboo, but fetishizing British culture rather than Japanese culture. Think that watching Sherlock and Doctor Who give them any actual insight on the country at all and that saying things like "tea and crumpets" makes them interesting. Most likely have never actually been within 100 feet of a real British person in their life.

Why would you want to be biritsh we hate everyone and everything. England's ♥♥♥♥, overcrowded, lacking space and have immgrants that can't speak english but have lived here for several years. If I were to move to spain or germany or something I would definantly put effot into learning the language and I would excpect myself to be fluent atleast within the first two years.

I’ve never heard of it, but I don’t doubt for a second that there are people like this.

Ah yeah those people calling Brits the worlds high society. Guess they've never been there. I think after Brexit I don't have to go further.

But every country has a few bad holes. Just some countries have alot more.

You wont be able to speak German or Spanish in 2 years.. fluent.

I'm British and my last girlfriend was from Poland, she liked reading classical literature and made an effort to learn English.

You can generalize immigrants but it is ignorant if you rarely know any in real life. People often base their views on populist or sensationalist media, don't become one of them.

I would actually want to visit England and Scotland sometime. Preferably the countryside.

I have no interest in visiting any other countries.

I’ve given up on dropping my Swedish accent, besides, I don’t actually speak to people too much.

The Queen bypases law, does a lot of charity work. She opens new sessions of Parliament. She does a lot more as well and also it's culture. You can't get a whole nation with a rich history to change their culture becuase you don't understand it.

Yes. In fact I had a phase like this for about a month where I used to thing british stuff (accent, TV shows, food, etc) were all the best things ever.

yes, teaboos are unfortunately real. it's very irritating when people with a superficial understanding of your culture nerd out over British TV shows and sexy British accents. I mean, have they ever met a Scouser? the answer is no

people who slag off immigrants for no reason, as though they're an OAP in a care home trying to make smalltalk with the lady changing their bedpan, who then turns out to be Polish; are unfortunately, also real

yours,
a subversive Northerner, from a green and pleasant land, who only hates a few people and a few things, such as gammon. it's overrated. fight me.
