Americanisms

[Arteta2391]

Hey since an overwhelming amount of GOT posters are from the UK. I am curious if any of you catch yourself saying or thinking American style things. For example I went out to a hip mixology bar in NYC. The bartender was American as they get based on his hipster like clothing and the way he spoke. But as he served my friend he a drink he ended the transaction with a "cheers mate" out of the blue.

My friend thinks that was a cringe and I'm on the fence.

do you british people ever catching yourself saying things/idioms that you heard in American television/movies such as "Howdy partner!", "piece of cake" "go out there and break a leg" etc

I watch a lot of the US news stations and now find myself walking past schools pretending to shoot the students with an automatic weapon.

I have taken to dressing as a buffalo and charging into the local council offices.

I put blocks of cheese on everything I eat in an effort to become as obese as possible.

No but people who say 'I could care less' when they mean 'I couldn't care less' are the absolute worst

I sometimes lean back and give two thumbs up and go "Aaaaaay" like the Fonz.
I also agree to his policy on shooting the current US President and hanging his body from a streetlamp at the nearest Petrol Station, as a warning to others.

An American once said to me.
We always do things bigger in the states, see that building over there, it would be ten times bigger at home.
I know I replied...its a lunatic asylum!

My 8 year old daughter has taken to saying "No siree bob" instead of plain old "no", which is 'kin hilarious tbh.
