Your’re taller than me

I’m sitting really upright now

my back is like urgh

Hey

What’s up you guys it’s Connor

Hey

What’s up you guys it’s Markus

Was that even a good British accent?

I can’t even speak right now

So today I’m here with Markus Butler

Hi

Hello

Markus is British if you can’t tell by his accent

I am British

And we’d thought we’d do a little cross promotion video

I have never done a video

With a Brit

Today we want to talk to you guys a little bit about UK versus US

How we do it

And what we mean by that is just the differences between the UK and the US

And certain things that we just do

And that makes no sense

Things we just do

We literally before this just Googled weird things in the US

and weird things in the UK

And we’re going to talk about some of the main topics

and maybe have an argument about some of them

Probably

You guys are pretty weird

You are

We are pretty weird

DRIVING

You drive on the wrong side of the road

No

You drive on the wrong side of the road

We literally drive on ‘the right side of the road’

Yeah that’s

Wow

You have no idea about that

No but what’s weird is that all of your cars are like automatic

So I’m pretty sure that a four year old could drive it home

Because they just sit (...)

You don’t have to do anything

You just stick it in drive and you’re done

If someone in England says they drive an automatic

Are they seen as lazy?

People think they can’t really drive

Sad

There’s a lot more motion

As an example

When do I ever drive like this?

You guys have roundabouts

Oh yes

We have like none

Instead you have stop signs

They are so annoying

Yeah

Every ten seconds

It’s like cool

And stop

And drive

I remember the first time I drove here I was just sitting there

And there was all this hooting

and I was like - what?

Stop hooting at me

Hooting?

What do you call it?

Honking?

Beeping

Honk!

Hoot!

Like owls

COFFEE vs. TEA

AND EATING IN GENERAL

There’s literally a bottle of tea right there

You drink coffee like non-stop

I swear Americans cannot live without coffee

There’s a Starbucks on every corner

Do you drink coffee?

I drink it every day

See I don’t drink coffee

Really?

Yeah

A lot of people don’t really drink coffee in England

I literally love Starbucks

I say I love Starbucks but I don’t even like coffee

Yeah

It’s like a sweet as you guys would say

It’s a sweet

Yeah

It’s a treat

Yeah but there’s not really as many Starbucks as there are here

Nowhere near as many Starbucks

Do you have tea places?

No

Like tea –bucks

Teabucks

No

So you would go to Starbucks and they do all different types of tea

But like – do they do that here?

Yeah

They have it but it’s not as big

We have loads of fruit teas at home

Fruit tea’s a big thing

The ever so popular SLANG

I dunno

Sometimes you guys say some weird stuff

We call each other like dude and bro

Dude

Bro

What’s up?

I always pick it up myself

So when I’m here I like...

I think that I text you back...

“Hey dude”

Yeah you did

But in real life when you walk in I’d never go “hey dude”

What do you guys say instead?

Or “what’s up”

What do you like call a person though?

“You alright, mate?”

“Alright mate”

“Good old chap”

If it was going to text my friend I’d be like

“You alright mate? What you up to?”

“Do you wanna come around tonight?”

Kinda better than dude actually

“Bro”

“What’s up”

“Knarley”

“Let’s surf”

You call “in the toilets”

“in the restrooms”

You don’t even call them toilets

So that’s one thing I forget

In every restaurant I’m like “where are the toilets?”

They’re like “what the ****?”

“Do you have toilets?”

“The restroom?”

Why’s it a restroom?

Do you need a rest?

In a restaurant are you like “guys I need a rest”

“Let me go poop”

Just stand there like...

I never thought of that

I call it the bathroom

But then

There’s not a bath in there

That gets me onto one thing which I remember

You call you know like a urinal

Yeah

You call them ur-in-al

You call them ur-i-nal?

That sounds like a constellation

“A part of ur-i-nal”

TEETH

Do you guys have bad teeth?

That’s the stereotype

Stereotypically we do

To be honest I had had terrible teeth

Literally my teeth were up in mouth

A lot of people do have bad teeth

I don’t know why

Do they just not get braces?

To get braces and stuff like that you have to go on the NHS

which is like government stuff

Sounds complicated

We just go down the street

But you guys always have such nice teeth

Always walking around like...

Aww look at you

You’re smiling

My pearly whites

You’re teeth are like so white

Yeah

Do you whiten your teeth?

I think a lot of people whiten their teeth

They like use the Crest home kit bleach

“This is sponsored by Crest home kit bleach”

“Get yours today”

TOILETS

He really wants to talk about toilets

I wanted to talk about this for so long

So like the toilet cubicles

Wait

Do you call them cubicles?

We call them stalls

But you have like no privacy in them

No

We actually don’t

The crack in between the door is like...

So you can literally walk by and see someone sitting in there...

And also the like gaps under them...

Now it’s my turn

HOLIDAY

I see like you guys

Like you and your friends tweeting “I’m going on holiday”

And I’m like what’s that?

Yeah

You’re like obsessed with it

We live to go on holiday

You don’t call it vacation?

No we don’t call it vacation

If I called one of my friends and said I was going on vacation

He’d be like “sorry?”

I think the reason we do it is because our country is tiny

and we have like nowhere to go

Whereas with your country you can do so much in it

You can ski, surf...

All the different states are known for something else

Whereas we just go on holiday and burn

We like to burn

You can tell someone is British because they burn

Yeah

They don’t put sun screen on

Like a lobster

For some reason we do his weird thing when it’s the last day of the holiday

You’ll be like “oh my god today I’m not going to put sun screen on”

“so I just burn”

People just actually do that

It’s a thing

They think it’s just going to happen

Sit on the side for like ten hours and just bake

Now onto my favourite

"SORRY"

Just polite

For everything it’s just like “sorry”

It’s kind of like “what did you mean?”

“Sorry”

When you say something you go “wait, what?”

When I’m at home and I say “wait, what?”

They say back to me “sorry”

“Sorry”

Each to his own right

You can imagine the next one

Before we filmed this video I was like oh we love to queue

Like QUEUING

What the **** is queuing?

I literally had a massive laughing fit

I was like “queuing?”

“like a line?”

I have no idea what it is

It’s your cue

You don’t know what queuing means?

No idea

If you use it in a sentence maybe

Ok

So

I have to queue up to get on a ride

Like wait?

Yeah

I think you call it waiting in line

Yeah

You have to wait in line

Yeah

We call it queuing

The British are known for queuing

You’re known to wait

Everyone thinks we love to queue

Like love to wait

I don’t get it

I don’t get it

You love to wait?

Who loves to wait?

Everyone would be hooting at you

Stop queuing

It would be like waiting in line

It would be like “oh, what a long queue”

Hash tag hate queuing

Everyone would be like “Connor, are you high?”

“Are you on drugs?”

Ok on that note

I think we learnt a couple of different things about each other today

And our different places we’re from

Queuing

Oh look you and your cubicles man

Or your stalls

Ok so I hope you guys enjoyed this week’s video

If you did make sure to give it a big thumbs up

And comment below some of the other things you don’t know about the UK or the US

And I’ll try my best to answer them

I don’t know

Dude you have no hope
