20 “Very British Problems”, As Per This Twitter Account

Published 6 months ago

If there’s anything I’ve learned about British society’s origins, I would say its most likely from watching Downton Abbey. If you were glued to it as I was, you may have noticed British High Society reveres conversations interspersed with witty barbs and veiled hints. The most uptight of the bunch (Violet, the Dowager Countess comes to mind) even refused outright to communicate any other way. They felt it was impolite to say what they mean outright and as self-proclaimed pioneers of civilized society, they adhered to this notion with gusto!

Politely telling off someone for the minor inconveniences they have caused or passive-aggressively expressing frustration is an art the Brits mastered eons ago and if you want to increase your word-sparring repertoire, the following collection of British epithets (Dowager Countess approved of course)  are sure to deliver no less!

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou is a free spirit in the world on her own journey. She believes that we need to heal the world like Michael Jackson said and that all the world's a stage like Shakespeare said. She believes we all have a role to play in making the world a better place and hers is on a beach island with a tropical climate; at least for the moment!

Got wisdom to pour?
