What’s the most absurd question someone has asked you about England, or life in England?

My answer is a little different but I am always reminded of it whenever I see this question pop up on my feed.Years ago I was visiting friends in Austin, Texas. On one of the days we went tubing down the Guadalupe river. It was a beautiful day. The river was slow and lazy. We had beer in a cooler on its own tube and smoked fine reefer as we admired the scenery and the cool breeze. All in all a perfect day. One of the guys with us, was a friend of my friends, called Billy. I met him the night before and he was cool and fun to be around. He did have a lot of questions though.Mostly these were of the “do you have -insert American pastime/foodstuff- in England” variety. Good naturedly, I answered as well as I could over the day, yes/no/kind of but different being the usual answers. At the end of the day we arrive back at the car where we had parked up before tubing and ate pigs in blankets before heading back to the city.“Hey Chris” says Billy. “Do you have pigs in blankets in the UK?”Before I can answer my host and old friend, Adam, who has been to the UK, shouts “Shut the f**k up Billy. Yes they f**king have pigs in blankets in the UK. Give the guy a f**king break”.Clearly, Billy’s constant questions had being winded my American friend up far more than they had me. Later on we were in a bar drinking Shiner Bock beer and Billy turns to me and says “ hey Chris, do you have…o nevermind”No Billy. We don’t have Shiner Bock in the UK. And we do have pigs in blankets but it’s complicated as we call something else pigs in blankets and what we were eating was more like a sausage roll.Fun times.Not me.

Are the Irish British since Ireland is part of the British isles, or does British exclusively refer to only the citizens of the UK?

Au contraire.I��ll let Darth Vader answer this one in multiple languages so as to get the message through .The Irish spent 800 years fending off being Assimilated by our near neighbour we were the 2nd country after the US to have fought a war against the Forces of the Crown and win Independence.No matter how many times this Question gets asked on Quora still wont change the Fact that Irish people are not British .The term “British Isles” is an antiquated term which is not used by the Irish Government . it has colonial undertones that imply possession.The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) stated that the two islands are commonly called “Britain and Ireland”.The government’s position is the same as outlined in a Parliamentary Question from 2005, The answer was given by then-Foreign Affairs Minister Dermot Ahern to TD Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin.The TD had asked for the government or DFA position on “the use of the term British Isles when referring to Ireland and Britain”:“The British Isles is not an officially recognised term in any legal or inter-governmental sense. It is without any official status. The Government, including the Department of Foreign Affairs, does not use this term.”"These islands” is a common diplomatic way to describe the islands. The DFA cited The Good Friday Agreement as a notable example of this, in which the term “British Isles” is avoided completely and “these islands” used when needed.It is a big Insult to refer to Irish people as Britishthe interview where cillian murphy was called "british"
