manofstrad Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 Right so when you referred to the ten bob millionaire thread you weren’t really talking about it you were talking about something else ………… people misusing the phrase. Yes, sorry about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bounce Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 That is not the case at all, I drive the same way on public roads whatever car I am in. Im not talking about you personally but this is generally the case especially around the London area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandad.Malky Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Yes, sorry about that. I can see you point now , it’s a British thing, we love to build them up and then knock them down, we should aspire to better ourselves rather than despise those that have made it.

That is exactly my point Malky. My question is why do the Brit's despise anyone who has made it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandad.Malky Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 That is exactly my point Malky. My question is why do the Brit's despise anyone who has made it? In Britain we still have a hangover from the class system; the working class despise the aristocracy. The Americans have been brought up with the idea that anyone is equal and can make it to the top, as in Barack Obama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofstrad Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 I experienced more of this bad attitude today while driving down London Rd. The traffic was quite heavy and I flashed a guy to allow him to pull out from a side road. He didn't even acknowledge me, he simply stared at the front of the car with a face like a slapped backside! How stupid did he make himself look?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Maybe the OP would get a little more credibility and repsect if he actuially posted some proof to back up the question? But I guess that's not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
