Equally ‘excuse me’ or ‘excuse you’ means someone is one sentence away from fisticuffs.
Lol facts, Brits really have a knack for sugarcoating their shade. “I beg your pardon?” is basically a polite threat. Honestly, if someone says “excuse me” calmly, you better back off ’cause it’s about to get spicy.
“Sorry, what was that?” is a personal favourite of mine
The tone is also important. It needs to be said slowly, deliberately and with excessive eye contact.
Basically, you done effed up son if a Brit hits you with one of these.
It’s not the worst thing Loki got away with saying that was hidden under the guise of being too British for everyone else to understand.
‘Mewling quim’ in a 12A rated film.
The real classic is “you wot mate?!”
It is known.
The more polite it is the harder you are about to be hit
Come again mate?
“Would you care to repeat that?”
Go ahead, repeat it, I dare you. For the avoidance of any possible doubt before I unleash my wrath upon you.
It’s the other way around
100%
Then Americans come here and realise we’re so much ruder than they could possibly imagine 😅 we use the word cunt as a term of endearment
