That is not very accurate at all. Yours sincerely, Doggo

It's called courtesy. No harm in being polite, and it brightens the drivers day to know he is appreciated. Happy drivers are less likely to hit the curb

all of these are essential things

Yeah many beaches in the north are mostly pebbles and yes......you will be mugged by seagulls for your watch, keys, wallet and finally your chips and there is nothing you can do about it and nobody can help.

No milk = no tea

Good thanks, you?

Only sockets in British bathrooms are shaver sockets.

At least it's healthy.

Please, oh please, cure us of that one! (Not that you're much good at picking rulers,)

Britishes??

The difference is in the smell and sticking to your shoes intensity. Dpg poop is extremely disgusting. Horse poop not so much.

We go to the counter and let them know what is wrong. We very rarely have to ask for it to be corrected as the person behind the counter usually offers to fix it and offer options.

"britishes"

Just being polite.

"After you." "No, after you." "No, dammit, I SAID AFTER YOU." "Look you little f***face, I said after you!!!"

The hot water supply comes from a tank in the loft, which could be contaminated. It was UK law to keep hot and cold separate to keep drinking water (cold) clean. now its just tradition.

the old-fashioned SWEET shops have some of the best sweets out there, tbh

Actually, This is an irish thing, Also a British thing but we will slam dunk you if you don't complete your round in ireland.

Classical music played by classically trained musicians. Outdoor , elegance at its finest

It was actually introduced during the war when water could be cut off or there were many shortages. Filling up a bowl uses half the amount of your sink. People just carried on using them as saving water is always a good idea. Remember our tap water is our drinking water too.

Who likes the sound of metal cutlery on metal sink? Makes my teeth on edge lol

That's not a UK thing, that's an EU thing. You lift the bowl out so you have one bowl soapy one clean without wasting the space 24/7 on having two bowls; or use only one bowl then half the volume (faster, less wasteful). Also you can still drain other things (say, wash some veg) while the plates are soaking. There's endless reasons --- none of them apply if you live in a US mansion with acres of kitchen; all of them apply if you live in an economically-sized space anywhere on earth.

I grew up with this in Germany. You do this, so you can pour out soup or tea etc if you only have one sink.

It also prevents breakages of glasses and crockery from being accidentally hit on the side of the sink.

I'm an American and have always used plastic tubs to do dishes in the sink, my mom and grandma did too. In fact, I'm not sure I know anyone who doesn't use a tub in their sink.

It also means you can take the water anywhere else to clean. Like clean floors or windows etc..

Nothing worse than when you need to quickly use the sink for any reason and it’s full of dishes. Just lift the basin out and you have a clear sink

What do you mean? Washing basins in sinks in the US are very common, every home goods store sells them, at least where I live. It might be a regional thing

I use a container to wash my dishes. I only have one sink, not a doubled sink.

OK, now I'm officially convinced I am not really American. B/c once again: We did this. Many people do/did. Saves water.

You save many water

also, to not waste boiled water and to keep the heat in, and sometimes your plug might have got lost or not fit properly

My nan had this. and there was a tea-towel under the tub too.

where do you throw the cold tea/coffee or other leftover fluids?

Does my head in this one - I see a tub in the sink, it's immediately removed. Never understood why my compatriots thought it a good idea.

I do this now in the states. I get charged for water going down the drain. Plants outside don't care.

I live in an old house with a HUGE stone kitchen sink.I use a plastic washing up bowl otherwise it would take at least 5 mins to fill the sink.

I think this is a great idea, and I do it myself. Uses less water.

Do you like tomato-flavoured coffee?

Much better and more verstile than the plain sink. We don't have the room in our Brit kitchens for three sinks and two sluices with a one of those food-eater thingies added to them all. Scrape your palte into the compost, rinse it in the sink then wash it in the hot soweapuy water in the bowl then lightly rinse the soap off in the sink again. You still have a bowl of hot soapy water and when you've finnished with that, you can swill the step and the path with it.

We normally only have one sink, not one & a half like you guys. So if we need to our away a bit of tea, it gets poured into the sink rather than the bowl.

Plenty of that in the US, too, but perhaps only common among older generations, now.
