What do Poms[the English] usually do?

[squeezewax]

Poms are people from England. Not Scotland, Wales or Nth Ireland, only England. It's a 'term of endearment' you hear from Aussies and Kiwis for the English.

Something Poms do a lot is to apologize. Instead of saying 'excuse me' before butting in to a conversation[for example' ] they'll say, ' I'm sorry, but.'

Another thing Poms love to do is moan a lot, especially when they're in another country, hence the expression 'a whinging pommie bastard.'

What else do the English say, or do a lot?

Brit's and Aussie's share love for the C word like no other

I visited London for the first time last month and I felt like it was way more multicultural than New York City. No one bats an eye if they hear seven different languages spoken in the same day. They are much more relaxed than Americans and their style is more posh. Also their slang "getting pissed" or "having craic" is used much more freely.

Pom is "term of endearment" now?

It's an abridged version of "pomme", "apple" in frog speak. A "fruit" otherwise.

English = pom = fruit.

I was told by an Aussie relative that it's Property Of (her) Majesty. No idea if that's true or not. Your definition sounds a little bit wittier than the average Aussie humour if I'm honest.

Talk about the weather. Yesterdays weather. What today's weather is like. What the weather will be like tomorrow. Reminisce about times we had weather like yesterday. Talk about when we had weather like the weather today. Recall the time we had weather like the weather they say we are going to have tomorrow.

We talk about the weather. That's what we do in England.

Australians are OBSESSED with England and the English and the “whinging pom” stereotype just underscores it. You are so desperate to find reasons to justify your hatred and jealousy, you’ll make up any old nonsense to support it - when in fact it’s simply a product of your crushing inferiority complex.

The only time England ever gives Australia any thought is when we’re playing you at rugby or when you’re cheating at cricket. Otherwise, you barely register and are of little or no importance.

I don't like football or EastEnders, so it's either the weather or fuck-all else.

It's not a stricly aussie thing to call the English "fruits".

To be a linguistics purist, "pomme" comes from "poma", Latin for fruit. Many European languages borrowed that.

Lately, in order to be LGBT-tolerant and inclusive to wymens, people started calling the englishes "cunts".

Imho, it's an insult to such a magnificent womanly body part.

This is undeniably true

we also moan about the health system and most people think football is A M A Z I N G but it's actually immensely gay

English people support our fellow UK countries, Ireland, Ireland, Wales & Scotland, however they in turn mostly fucking despise us and would be happy to see us chainsawed from them, set on fire and let drift towards the US

we have ZERO culture of our own, even our national foods are Asian.

We expect everyone to speak our language when we go on holiday and get rather annoyed if natives are rude enough to want to speak their own language, and when we see foreign people in our country we get very very very very angry if they don't speak English PERFECTLY

we go on holiday to places where only Brits go & we only drink lager while we're there & our will seek out the English bars and restaurants.

we moan about the US but we copy everything you do

Did I mention we have ZERO culture of our own

in 2006 we officially became part of Asia, in 2016 we adopted Islam as our predominant faith

We moan about not having jobs but we will never consider taking an unskilled job that are only suitable for immigrants.

THIS, is England
