Did the United States really


turn a generation of dumb white British boys into wannabe Gangstas? If so, I profusely apologize for my country. But in our defense, it was mostly the fault of Los Angeles.

It's true, really. They just didn't get that it was a joke. So sad...

it was jamacans coming to england, not americans

Aaah! big behnam is in denial that America influences England. It'll be OK, old chap! Stiff upper lip and all that!

careful, they don't like to be talked down to, even though they deserve to

While you're at it you can apologize for the "gangster rap" juvenile delinquent problem in New Zealand to. It's really out of hand. We even have bloods and crips gangs now.

But no seriously "rap music" doesn't turn people bad just as horror movies don't make people into serial killers.

Its true...alot of modern London slang and colloquialisms have been adapted from Jamaican people coming over.

reply

Yes you're right, London slang and colloquialisms have been influenced by Jamaicans, but that's just language.

The actions and manner, come from American gang culture. This is not new, we have always been heavily influenced, by American icons, movies, slang, music, clothing, culture and politics.

reply

Now apologize for what you've done to New Zealand!

We have bloods and crips now

I blame it on da American FB.

reply

it doesn't take a genius to know its based on the stupid americans


the world is WAY more americanised then it used to be, and the western world is getting dumber because of it. The jamaican crap is just an escape goat you people are using. Sasha only uses that as a gag of how he thinks his a wigger (white black person) trust me its all americas fault


america has "THE HILLS"
australia has "THE SHIRE"
UK has "ESSEX"

sorry but in australia there's heaps of UK shows about how far the girls in UK go to prove how slutty they are sucking face with any one, banging anyone in sight, three-way kiss to the camera like they're proud they have no morals, getting completely smashed

aussies themselves have lost most of their lingo and the younger kids act like gangstas and the older generation don't use aussie slang anymore such as "fair dinkum" and "crikey" (starting to weaar off during the mid 90s

every show channel in australia is a reality/talent show and the most aussie show is pretty much a australian version of 'bachelor' called "farmer wants a wife"

p.s there's an "australian bachelor" this year too...so welcome to america #3 peoples (irony)

iraq = america #2
australia - america#3
UK = america #4

even asian countries like "hong kong" (that i went over to for a holiday) is starting to get americansed, i really don't enjoy watching a judge INSULT a contestant on how much of a "sh*t" singer they are...totally not how most hong kong people act

reply

To say stupid americans is a little harsh. Not all americans enjoy every show that comes on, and a lot of us are sick of reality TV. While I am not going to say that I do not enjoy a few of them, I would much rather watch older shows or at least shows with a good story. I hate all the slutty/rich things that come on nowadays. Also I have yet to see how the US forced other countries to watch our television shows/movies and act like us (I could be wrong seeing how it seems our country stops at nothing) but it would be the other countries decisions to let it in in the first place. I am also not sure which country/countries do it but I have heard about naked weather girls. I am not sure if thats true or not but if it is I would think that is a little worse then how my country does the weather. I am far from proud of my country in some things but not every American agrees with all the things our country does and to say we are all stupid is just ridiculous.

Go ahead and criticize away.

I didn't realize the US, or one city in the US (Los Angeles), has such a profound effect on people in the United Kingdom and other countries, to the point where they're actually determining what type of people they are and shaping their personalities. Evidently the US really does rule the world...
