"It's very strange that in Britain, people must queue to pee in public toilets."

And the Brits get gobsmacked. When they find something exceptional, noteworthy, or outstanding, they say "It's a belter."

In America we offer the skeptics challenge: “Yeah, right?’’

In the UK it’s: “Too right mate!’’

We pronounce school as SKool. Brits pronounce school as SHool.

A British General asked Ike, "Where did you learn to pronounce 'school' like that?"

He said, "At SKool". 😁

I hope that came across properly
