While I don't think it's fair of Eyso to write American culture off completely, he has a point about your (and I mean you personally) sense of humour. No-one in this thread is taking it that seriously, why're you getting so upset?

imperial freaks (as though the european empires never existed and the us actually had an empire)
No-one alive today is to blame for the excesses of the old British Empire. As such, in all seriousness, no-one in their right mind actually cares whether we used to "own" you, nor do the acts of a dead generation of Britons make us feel any less qualified to protest the imperialist actions/stances of present governments.
