English people do not say "G'day ,mate" lol.
That is Australia.
You're welcome.
Edit*
This post was in reference to Sal in the British Invasion episode.
They were trying to say British phrase and Sal said "G'day, mate" lol.
It isn't that big a deal but it was quite embarrassing.
Yeah right, why don't you calm down and throw another shrimp on the barbie?

Be careful. He/She will probably tell you off next by saying that the English don't use the word shrimp ( excuse my slang..."prawn") much less eat it. haha
All prawns are shrimp, but not all shrimp are prawns. Prawns are just what large shrimp are typically called .

Crikey! Thanks for letting us know!
shareLike I said. You're welcome ;-)
shareA lot of British lingo sounds strange to us Yanks, like we say gas and you call it petrol, we say a$$ and you say ar$e.
BTW, I've always wanted to know, what exactly is a w@nker?
Hehe. We Brits also say "ass" just like you do lol.
We just happen to have the word "arse" too.
Where I am from in the UK, we all say "ass", nobody I know says "arse"
"Wanker" Basically translates to "Jerk off" in the USA.
Lol! Growing up, my family all loved British TV (the few shows we got here in the USA). My dad loved Benny Hill--he was hilarious! I was a fan of British Men Behaving Badly and Keeping Up Appearances. Shows were awesome.

We do appreciate that some of you yanks actually like our humour! lol.
If you like British comedy, check out the shows "Bottom" or "The Young Ones"
Sadly, Rik Mayall is dead now but he was a legend in comedy.
Oh and another one for ya is "sweets" lol. Over here we don't say "Candy" we say sweets.
I will check them out--will have to look them up on youtube.
Just curious, do you have American fast food in England?
We yanks call 'em potato chips to your crisps, and our cookies are biscuits to you.
Yep, we have Macdonalds, KFC, Subway....We even have little departments in supermarkets that specifically sell stuff from the USA.
Twinkies, Reeses peanuts, Lucky Charms, things like that lol.
My 2 biggest comedic influences growing up were Peter Sellers and Monty Python. I probably literally know every single line if dialogue from "Holy Grail", and most of the credits, too. We got the Flying Circus on PBS and absolutely ate it up.
And we couldn't WAIT to see each new Pink Panther movie.
The one show that I rarely hear about, though, that I thought was hilarious was "Black Adder" with Rowan Atkinson. Before there was Mr. Bean, there was Edmund Blackadder! An absolute riot!
This is why we need to invade Britain ... Beat they ass like 1776 ... We save them in two world wars and they still moan as they drink tea !!! They would be speaking German if not for USA
shareMurica!
Buy a Russian model, regulate religious freedom, China wall the south side, and shake the middle east like an etch-a-sketch until oil falls out. Vote Trump.
