"On accident" hurts my brain 🫤

Likewise. It's as if "accidentally" is a word in a foreign language: English.

"Bear rabbit" is a really cute name! .. but FYI only it's an Aussie possum.. probably a brushtail. I took an American to a wildlife park once and the keeper put one of these on his shoulder and all the blood went from his face and he nearly fainted. (They are chill not like an American opossum.. and we don't have rabies here.) 😂

I have a genuine enquiry has to how and why people making this British meme compilations can’t detect Australian accents and wildlife that doesn’t exist in Britain.. As a Brit I can’t make sense of it 😛

A celebrant is a (non religious) individual who carries out weddings, funerals or baby naming ceremonies instead of a priest, vicar ect.

[@MayJay1812]

Can we petition to have "I want to party with that person" merch??

A flapjack is a cake made from oats and honey. What you call a flapjack is completely different.

[@rjb29uk]

To my understanding a "celebrant" is typically someone who conducts a non-religious wedding ceremony. For my wedding it was someone provided by the local authority, but I believe in theory it could be anyone you want to lead the proceedings. Then there is also a role in the UK of "registrar" who is required to be present to officially oversee the statements and documentation of the wedding to make it legally binding, which definitely has to be a qualified official from the local authority. I think in the USA the same roles might be something like "master of ceremonies" and the "officiant"? I guess at a religious ceremony the priest/rabbi/imam/etc would fulfil the roles of both celebrant and registrar, as they would be licensed to legally marry people, as well as conducting the wedding ceremony itself.

[@Thee_Penguin]

I think the roof one is Australian because im sure that was a possom which the UK doesn't have

[@lynnejamieson2063]

Our flapjacks aren’t the same as US ones. Our flapjacks are made with rolled oats and syrup and a few other things plus additions to create different flavours but they’re essentially crispy, chewy and a little soft all in one bite. Unlike US flapjacks that are just another name for pancakes, aren’t they?

[@gamingtonight1526]

Think it was the Uncle - not the Dad, cos he said "Jimmy said it was okay" - and I think that was the Dad!

[@kelst75]

Those were Australians(judging by the accent), so it was probably a possom. They are cute looking. But in NZ they are considered a pest because they kill a lot of our wildlife.

A "bog" is an English toilet.

The school was wrong. The safest shape for the flapjacks is a sphere, obviously. No corners nor edges at all.

[@daniellemaines4874]

As a Brit who hath only dwelt in towns and cities I would refute the statement on the thumbnail with much vim and vigour. I do not love a bog. In fact I have never even seen a bog. To me, a bog is a slang term for lavatory and I certainly would go snorkelling in there. Or the other kind. Because it just looks very uncomfortable and filthy. I’ve also never run after cheese at high speed down an extremely steep hill, or frolicked around a maypole. This is a village/country life kind of vibe. And I would fear that I would end up burning alive in some kind of wicker effigy if I came across it. AVOID AT ALL COSTS😉

[@klaxoncow]

"Celebrant" is the generic name for the person who conducts rites - like weddings, funerals, naming ceremonies - which doesn't assume any particular religion. Because, like, if you say "priest", this presumes Catholicism, or "vicar", presumes Church of England, or "rabbi" presumes Judaism. "imam" presumes Islam. You get the gist. If you want to refer to the person who conducts these rites in an inclusive not-any-particular-religion way, then the generic term is "celebrant". They're all celebrants for being the person who conducts the rites - the master of ceremonies, if you will - but you're not specifying any particular religious title (because every religion - and even different denominations within the same religion - likes to give a different religious title to these people and, like, you can't just say "priest" generally, as that wouldn't be at all correct for a Jewish or Muslim wedding, right?) Often used in non-religious weddings and funerals, as the person conducting the rites has no special religious title, of course, in a non-religious ceremony. They're just the person who qualified to have a licence to legally conduct such ceremonies. So they're usually called "celebrant" - the generic title for the person who does that job, inclusive of all religious beliefs (including none).

I've been watching you for a long time and I've watched you watch British videos (or videos about Britain) for a long time. My question: how many more videos do you need to watch before you stop calling my country "England" instead of "Britain"? Can the American brain just not cope with this knowledge (the same way that you can't work out that there's no such thing as the word "Legos")? Imagine you're an American who is watching a British person react to American culture... yet that Brit routinely refers to the USA as the "13 colonies". Would it get annoying to you if they were still doing it months later, having watched so many videos about American culture? And here's the thing... that Brit would be wrong to call the USA the "13 colonies" just as you are wrong for calling the UK "England"... but he'd be 69 years *less* wrong than you, because England stopped being a sovereign nation 69 years before your country was born. Yet here you are, more than 200 years later, still getting it wrong.

[@JacknVictor]

6:14 it DOES make sens if you reverse it as it is a mirror image of the word "SLOW". It does not spell "SLOM" If reversed. We are looking at it from an upside down view. Look at the 'L' and its orientation, that makes the end letter an 'W'.

[@tiapina7048]

But what is the point of seeing that writing in the mirror? if you see it in the mirror it means you already past it with your vehicle.

[@JacknVictor]

@@tiapina7048 yeah exactly ! I know that, my point wasn't that what they have done was correct because it isn't, my point was just the fact that it does make sense, as a word, as a mirror image. People are assuming they had spelt the word incorrectly, as 'SLOM' but, as you pointed out, anyone seeing it, they would have already gone past before seeing it in their mirror. The idiots probably had the blueprint upside down and back to front! Lol.

So sweet kids being so into something, just a shame it's something as pointless as football
