I dunno, I'd say on the whole we're marginally better than America, but that's not to say we're good, just the lesser rotten apple.

Maybe, but at least we don't have Florida. Ergo we win.

Lower percent of US citizens are Islamic and Pakistani, that is a bonus, notes Rolf, although the UK does have less batshit crazy Christians, adds Rolf. The USA is also a republic, not a monarchy, this is a bonus, states Rolf.

Real examples of British English being more complicated or formal than American English:
Stick shift - manual gearbox
Trailer truck - articulated lorry

They are the only examples I can think of. Can anyone else suggest any?

It works the other way around, too - I've never heard anyone in the UK call a car an automobile... and we call backhoes 'diggers'.

Atheists do need to hate on other religions, for 'tis what all blind followers of any doctrine do, notes Rolf.

Who says I'm atheist?

Maybe Darwin is God.
