Traditional UK culture:

Going to church once a week.

Approx 700,000 people attend the Church of England each week.

Modern ACTUAL UK culture:

Getting a takeaway because you are fat and lazy and disgusting

According to a KPMG study, nearly a third (31%) of consumers in the UK have at least one takeaway a week. This number rises to 58% in London.

So, 31% of 68 million is approximately 21 million people who order a takeaway at least once a week.

That's real British culture folks.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyone going to church once a week is a fackin disgrace....& I bet it's on Sunday before the shops or pub is open...shows no effort in worshipping false deities at all - WTF is the matter with weekdays



Lazy despicable hypocritical caants

Disappointed.

It didn't really answer my questions.

I understand that Chinese is more popular, but what I wanted to know is whether Indian takeaway could be seen as being more typically British than Chinese takeaway.

Also, nothing on the basis or source for the claim that curry is the most popular type of dish in Britain.

I liked the reference, but ideally would have preferred something more scholarly.

I didn't claim that curry was the most popular dish. I claimed that people with iPhones, who vape, order lots of Chinese takeaways and this is more representative of modern British culture than like 5 old people going to church or someone having a picture of the queen on their wall.

Unless I just didn't read part of the AI response and it said curry is the most popular. Then ignore that part.

You mean one or two people making the food? For the people who are lying in bed waiting on the delivery, throughout the city? For every 10 people willing to walk from their office to Greggs to buy a £2 steak bake, there is also manatee lying on their couch willing to pay £20 for a single delivery for their breakfast from the Chinese.

ChatGPT still hangs a picture of the Queen on the wall?

Not unless you have the Chinese copy of ChatGPT.

Who TF orders Chinese for breakfast?

Who TF orders Chinese for breakfast?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sure! Here’s the breakdown in bullet points:

Chinese for breakfast? Not a common choice for many, but it happens.
In some places (e.g., New York, San Francisco, parts of Asia), it’s totally normal to order Chinese food any time of day, including breakfast.
Traditional Chinese breakfast options: dim sum, congee (rice porridge), jianbing (savory pancake), and buns might be ordered instead of Western breakfast foods.
People who order: Those craving variety or living in areas with 24-hour Chinese restaurants might be more likely to go for it.
Your point: Some people, like you, might prefer a more classic breakfast like a bagel, pancakes, or eggs.
Does that help? What's your go-to breakfast choice?

A lot of Scottish people on a Sunday when they are hungover. Not necessarily early in the morning but like 2 in the afternoon when they are able to move. I've witnessed it on many occasions. It's a choice between McDonald's and Chinese. That's the modern Sunday decision. Not what to wear to church. Also the queues of white Mercedes A classes at a McDonald's drive thru! Although difficult to see them through the vape clouds. That's British culture.

@Barry. You are right. It is funny.

I think someone needs to do a short film on modern British culture and I think a lot of people will relate. I am currently busy out walking but someone should have time to do it, under my guidance.

I'm old I need the caffeine boost to eat all that. Oh I forgot the sausages. 2 or 3.

Not everyday. Saturday or Sunday usually. And a mug with the contents of one of those 6 demi-tasse volcano style Italian coffee pots everyday. But 2 with my big brekky.
Zat okay?
