British people are hilarious

  1. You can have multiple unwrapped biscuits but when it comes to wrapped you can only take one

  2. It’s things like this as to why Britain will survive the cataclysmic shift in democratic processes and why America will be swallowed by it

  3. The best ones were at the bottom and you had to eat all the crap ones first

  4. I know i want to eat it but on the other side I’m a bit shy

  5. Similar rule applies during a work meeting where biscuits are provided: everyone pretends not to be looking at them until someone takes the plunge and helps themselves to one – after that it’s like a swarm of locusts descending.

  6. Basically, you don’t want to be the fat bastard clawing at the biccies with your eyes. Must be demure and unfat despite ever increasing dough rolls.

    And don’t come at me with fatphobic shit. I’m fat. We’ve all done it! Even the tarts have done it — I see you, Emily!

  7. No I’m the fat bastard who immediately shouts OOOO BISCUITS??? FOR ME??? I can sniff the crumbs from the other side of the office.

  8. It’s something I truly hope we never lose in Britain is the ability to find everything funny, and take the piss out of everything

    Other countries everything is dialled up to 11 and so extreme/serious all the time

  9. It’s a manners thing.

    You’re brought up to not automatically assume that you’ll get something, so you pretend that you don’t see them until you’re officially offered one.

    That’s the difference between the older generation and the younger generation, the younger ones feel entitled and will most likely take a biscuits before they’re offered one, and they would also throw a hissyfit if they don’t get the biscuits they want.

  10. I always check to see if the tin has stored either coconut rings or ginger nuts before taking one.

  11. I have a relative who would always call attention to biscuits being handed out. They have since moved to America which I think was the correct decision.

  12. This is what the world mistakes for British politeness.

  13. ooooh go on then, just one though, I’m on a diet. fk it, got two stuck together, I’ll save one for tomorrow.

  14. Like reading the birthday card and commenting on how thoughtful it is and then noticing the money afterwards as if you hadn’t already seen it.

  15. Pretending not to be annoyed when the person before you takes the last party ring
