20+ Hilarious Telltale Signs That Someone Is British, As Said By Redditors

If there's a group of people that has been the subject of so many stereotypes all over the years, it's the British citizens. Although Americans definitely have a lot of stereotypes pegged against them, the British definitely have their fair share of funny clichés that up until today, send people to chuckle.

Like how mostly everyone assumes that Americans love baseball, Australians eat Vegemite for breakfast and lunch, Japanese people only eat sushi, Canadians are hockey fanatics, and some Asian people are emotionless but intelligent; the Brits have also been a subject of harmless stereotyping throughout the years that most of them find funny, too! While being stereotyped can be quite annoying especially when it's far from true, British people are well-armed with, well, a stereotype that also comes quite handy to fight them off: humor and sarcasm.

The Brits are also known for being excessively polite, and you sometimes don't know if they are being genuine or if they are just being passive-aggressive with you. But don't be fooled, they are actually naturally polite and nice and would most likely just ask you for a cup of tea (oops, another stereotype)!

There's also one thing that British people are known to enjoy: waiting in line. Next time you are in a queue and find yourself getting impatient: think British!

If you're wondering how many more stereotypes are there (oh, there's definitely a whole lot of them), a certain u/Automatic_Computer20 asked the question "What are some major red flags that someone is British?" on the r/AskReddit community. And sure enough, the people jumped in on the thread and shared the stereotypes they know as well as firsthand experiences to prove it!
