Quote
1
I moved to England to be the best looking person for once. In America, it's "Oh my God, you look like Buddy Holly! You some kind of freak?" In England, it's "Oh my God, who is that? He has all his teeth and his ears are in proportion to his head! He can't be a member of the Royal Family!"

People in England drink like someone is going to take it away from them.
3
