NEW RULES

The first thing I noticed in London, about the people, is that they get where they have to go, even if that means you don’t!  So, I’ve made a rule, if you’ll cal it, about British from an American perspective: Don’t Mind Them, Join Them. 

As you’re walking down the sidewalks of London, and while entering/ exiting the tubes, you will frequently get pushed or feel your shoulder aggressively bumped.  Do not be alarmed!  I will ensure you that almost every time you will calm yourself, to notice, that everyone is in a rush.  Do not mind them, simply join them.  Stiffen your shoulders and push your way through, and you will survive in London, just fine.  Remember, push first, say sorry later!

As well, I’ve come up with a rule, that the British may conclude about Americans: Can’t Keep Quiet

It might not be so hard to spot an American in London, after all, they voice everything they feel. Seriously, all they do is complain.  If the waiter gets something wrong with their order, they have a fit.  When the line is too long for them, they make a shout.  If we’re inside and it’s hot, with no air, you better believe it’s a problem.  We all know it’s hot, we are all hot, there’s nothing we can do to change the company’s air problem.  If you forgot to put on deodorant, and they’re standing next to you, they’ll remind you.  It’s seems as though they just can’t keep quiet, all they do is complain.
