The toaster says "never taken out the box" but the picture shows it literally... outside... the box
ON the box, in fact! 😉🤫
@@anthonywatson7735 Has to be outside the box to be on it. 😅
@@EarthlyEden1 PEDANT! 😉
You beat me to it haha😂😂
This guy never responds to anything, ever. It's the lowest form of TH-cam; just reacting to other people's hard work and not bothering with reactions to his own work. Easy money for little work.
If you can see the toaster out of the box, how can it never be taken out of the box?
Maybe it was never in the box in the first place 🙂 then it would never have been taken out of the box, because it never went in 👍 (but I expect it was in the box)
@@Ross-df6ge anti-schrodingers toaster?
Can you see the tosser out of the box?
The picture of the toaster is taken from google images and copy pasted into the advert, simples.
The black chunks in the banana bread are the plastic ends on the arms of the glasses😂
Yup
Love the eureka moment when you realised penny related to pence, or as we say in UK, the penny dropped!
That was dramatic 🤯
American driving tests are laughably easy. 80% Americans would fail the British driving test even after 3 years of driving.
And some of em couldn't pass even after a lifetime of driving, they'd keep getting in the wrong drivers sest
After 3 years of driving, so would a lot of British drivers given the driving I see on a daily basis.
I would that's more like 99%
@@delboy1727 best me too it ❤😂
tbh - most British drivers would fail the test 3 years after passing...
Best way to do a chip butty is to get a portion of chips from your local chippy. Beats oven chips every time.
Not all chippy CHIPS are good enough, try cooking your own in 'beef dripping of course' MMM, oven chips 'UGH'
With plenty of butter! Ninjas on airfry great for making chips for the chip butty
Hmmm
My local chippie serves a lump of chips
- Toaster is out of the box
- GC is Group Chat
- Chip butty is top-tier snacking
And "AV" is "have", not A.V.
Okay... but a Fish Finger Butty is class......
@@Mori_UAAbsolutely, as is a Potato Waffle sandwich.
My Cadbury advent calendar was £1.50 😃🇬🇧🏴
In America driving is easy 99% of Americans would fail a British driving test. I like how the toaster thing went right over your head
Normally I’m a person who is happy to share, but if I had Maltesers I would hide them!
A chip sandwich (or chip butty) is eye rollingly delicious! As mentioned in others comments, chips are much thicker than fries - up to about 1/4” on each short side. Preferences vary but I like the chips to be just starting to brown but not crisp. A cob (crusty roll) or thick sliced white bread is ideal, spread with real butter. A little salt and a sprinkle of malt vinegar is all I need to make it perfect. You will likely hear dozens of variations on this as it is a national favourite!
"cob" urgh, northerner spotted. Also onion vinegar for next level
@@VideoDeadGaming I didn’t know they called it a cob oop north lol. I’m from the West Country. Will be trying the onion vinegar 👍
I’m originally from the midlands and they say cob in Leicester!
@@sophieking7508 It's called a Cob in Nottingham too. I moved oop north and the looks on the shop persons face when I asked for a cheese cob was priceless. Up here they call it a bun
Ooh la la cob eaters..I just have buttered bread. 😅
Love the “loading” face when he realised he did know what a penny was 😂
Yeah
Getting to like your British 'observations' and glad to see that you're gradually getting used to REAL British humour and sarcasm!
Yep he's certainly becoming more 'Britishised' every day, give it a other ten years though and then he'll becoming real closer.
@@user-qj7et4wv3q A lot closer than the foreign filth coming into the country and not willing to assimilate to British Values and society.
7:54 The black chunks are the arms of the glasses. I mean I would still eat it.
Damn it! The last half of your sentence made me spit my tea out!😄
Would you get the glasses out and square it up just pull them out and slice while it's upside down? I was debating ..
To make a chip butty you must liberally butter the bread and not use dry bread as in USA
It’s not a butty without butter! Also add ketchup
@@jonhodges6572 Heathen!
HP is the One True Sauce.
@@StormhavenGaming I love hp with bacon butties, but no, with chips has to be Tommy K
And first salt and vinegar on the chips...then lashings of Tomato ketchup...not Heinz..it's too bland.
"Chip Butties" were brought to the worlds attention by John Lennon of "The Beatles" in 1963 when he was being interviewed and he mentioned his favourite food on the go was the Chip Buttie.
It was made out to be a Liverpudlian delicacy, just a few hot new cooked potato chips between fresh buttered bread(on the inside faces) and a sprinkle of vinegar and a twist of salt.
No doubt it was well known about 'oop north' but to us fancy types 'darn sarf' it was unknown.
Probably a mothers best way to get a cheap hot meal in her youngsters when time were tough. Six penny worth of chips and a Wonderloaf for a shilling fed her brood very well.
90% of your videos "i dont get it" then proceeds to pretty much nail the correct meaning 🤣😂
Red phone boxes, Despite a reduction in their numbers in recent years, the traditional British red telephone kiosk can still be seen in many places throughout the UK, and in current or former British colonies around the world. The colour red was chosen to make them easy to spot. The only thing is they can be miniature book lending libraries or have a portable Defibrillators in them.
‘Is that why a penny’s called a penny?’ Revelation!
I know - had to play that over and over surely not...
Because i learned british english in school and watched Follow Me on the telly, i have known what a penny and pence are since i'm ten. It boggles my minds that me a portuguese would know that yet an american who is also an english speaker wouldnt.
@@carlossaraiva8213It's also that they call a 1-cent coin a penny
You can still find the old red phone boxes, in particularly scenic, or historic locations. The 'Local Hero' phone box is still the same, and still works!
Actually they made it work because originally it was a movie prop, the film crew put it there as a prop as the little village didnt had a public phone booth. The village asked the film crew to leave it there. When tourists who are fans of the show visited the village they wanted to make a ph9ne call from the booth,.so the locsls arranged for it to have a landline. The village with the phone booth is called Pennan on the north coast of Aberdeenshire in Scotland and i visited it two years ago. Beautiful place.
'Driving's not that hard' Passing a UK driving test- almost certainly in a manual car - is no doddle! Many many peope don't pass first time!
Filling up the car and buying a single chocolate bar and it costing £8,000 - that's outrageously expensive ( and a massive exageration!)
' Family GC' = Group Chat
That has to be the most quintessential British 🇬🇧 ginger cat 🐈 behaviour in the world 😅
11:18 it says "never taken out of box" but the picture shows it out of the box
I love how many times you search for something and get adverts for Fender Telecasters and Jaguars :)
Not only is Garlic Bread Expert a job, it's the future.
No AI is going to come for that job
@@MsPatacaI'm guessing you've not seen much of Peter Kay?
PAHAHAHAHA!
Ohh, get te kids inside, Barbara! It's spitting, it's spitting! 🤭
@@RachaelMorgan-om4xw You don't need the "te" bit, us Northerners miss out words and letters we don't need t' still make sense. Good try though, but it would get 'd' kids inside if anything.👍
Another phrase that warns against incoming insult. "With all due respect...."
Or in a professional context those people that briefly congratulate you on your ‘good point’, followed by a ‘having said that’ and a complete shattering of everything you said before.
Please don't take this the wrong way but......
May I say this very gently....
The German railways use rail replacement buses as much as the British railways. I even know the German word for this: Schienenersatzverkehr (abbreviated SEV).
Yes you can buy an Cadbury advent calendar for 2 pounds or less 😊
Some people might think it`s a shame that the Gran had to buy the advent Calendar for herself but a similar thing happened to me .
My birthday came round in January and in a rather shamefaced way my husband said he didn`t feel well enough to get me a birthday card just the day before , but he wanted me to have one from him .
I didn`t like the idea of choosing my own card ,so in the shop I asked the assistant to choose a card ,any one she thought suitable but not to show it to me .
Then he wrote in it and gave it to me the next day .
A month later he died in hospital of pneumonia
Younger people don't know this,
If you saw French Fries on a menu you knew you were getting those thinly cut fried patatoes, long before McDonalds started serving them
Chips are much thicker.
We have always had French Fries in the UK. Chip are a different thing
Not sure what you mean by younger people don't know this, very much still a thing as far as I'm aware
@@whiskers6513 they all think French Fries is an American thing.
@@old.not.too.grumpy. No, if you say you're getting French fries pretty much anyone will understand that that means thin chips.
What utter bollocks! The French don't have French Fries: they have pomme frittes, you silly old sod 🤭
The Aston expressway…..
Would it be too much for the council to paint it and add a bit of colour.
It’s like driving through a concrete trough 😂
The guy with his trousers down, don't judge us, its cold and wet for the other 11 months and 3 and a half weeks, we have to enjoy the sun while we can lol.
Sorry but there are limits. He can warm his ballsack home on the heater.
ASDA is a supermarket chain that until recently was owned by Walmart. It was originally British owned and ASDA stands for Associated Dairies.
Chip butty, yes, but remember that brits put butter on their bread, otherwise it doesn't work.
Got to be buttered
You VERY NEARLY stepped into the bread bun bap cob teacake debate! Thank goodness you skirted it. You seem too gentle for the violence that can ensue when that debate kicks off... 😂
It's bread buns 👍
It’s a barm 😊
ITS A MUFFIN 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sorry but you started it 😂😂
@@susansmiles2242 Muffins are sweet, surely?! Honestly, I'm from South Yorkshire, but I once heard a Barnsley lad insist it was teacake, and teacakes are sweet with raisins in. Absolute madness in the regional differences, even in neighbouring towns! 😂
@@Helter-Skelterz no you are thinking of American muffins or currant tea cakes
Oven bottom muffins are bread
Just in case you didn’t understand, with the fat dog one, pinching is also slang for stealing here, doesn’t mean he’s literally pinching the dogs 🙂
Ahh hahaha! Imagine trying to pinch a Pincher! Giggle 🤭
Cats can climb a two storey building on the corner if it's pebble dashed, a word to look up I suggest. There is a video of a cat doing it, but I can't be arsed to find it.
"Is that why a penny is called a penny?" *mindblown*
I've always found that a bit weird since Britain didn't have decimal currency until the 1970s, and the pre-decimal penny wasn't the smallest denomination issued before then.
And there were 240 pence in a pound pre-decimal.
Don’t take your coat off your mot stopping!
He’s so lucky, if he fell down the toilet, he’d come up clutching a bar of chocolate……
But penny was the unit, the smaller coins were parts of a penny. Ha'penny and farthing (fourth-ing/quarter). That's the terminology people took with them when they went there.
You might get last years advent calendar for £2. 🤣🤣🤣
15:15 - Actually.... no. I'd be damned if I put skinny fries in a butty. It has to be thicker cut chips. Even better if they're from a chippy.
Chip butty - There are three main elements:
1) White bread or roll.
2) Butter/or marge.
3) Chips NOT fries. Chips are thicker/chunkier. More like steak fries, but greasy. Fries are thinner, crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. It's like the difference between a roast potato or baked potato.
The hot greasy chips melt the butter which soaks into the bread. Fries just don't work in the same way and aren't as filling.
4) Optional - Condiment of your choice. Salt & vinegar is traditional and/or tomato ketchup. Alternatives include gravy, curry sauce, salad cream, mayonaise, etc.
N.B. Almost every town has a different name for a chip butty: Chip sarnie,chip sandwich, chip roll, chip bap, chip batch, chip barm, chip cob, chip sub, etc.
So it's important in an unfamiliar town's chippy to check the menu board to see the local name otherwise the vendor will give you an uncomprehending look and you instantly mark yourself as an outsider - assuming your accent hasn't already done so.😁
Perfect description 😊
First off you are not ugly. You're really rather gorgeous 😉.
Second I love how you correct your pronunciations now with like place names ending in 'ham' and 'shire'...we're turning you into a Brit slowely but surely lol.
Yes, 'p' is short for pence.
My reccomendations again (I live in hope that Ill be pleasantly suprised that you react to one of these some day) are carrot in a box and carrot in a box:the rematch and also top 10 modern british bands to crack the US.
P.S. that sheep was well hench....id be scared of it lol
I'm a bit in love with his knees.
Love these! Just to say that on the ‘British tapas’ meme, it was good old onion rings rather than calamari! We love an onion ring with a pub meal 😋
“Aww bless his cotton socks” is also an option rather than “love him to bits”. Former is more Northern and also features in Wales.
Just a PSA for JJ: Maltesers are wayyyy better than US malted milk balls and highly addictive.
I saw one sign, an arrow pointing into the shop with "great coffee", under it an arrow pointing ahead with "don't know, bears? Wouldn't risk it"!
One barber shop had a job advert on its sign outside asking for no egoes, as "they had plenty of those already"!
And they would be trousers, mate!
JJ you are GORGEOUS!!! No joke. Fits your humble personality that you don’t know that.
If you do decide to try and make a chip butty, please butter both slices of bread, (butter sides facing in with the chips between) and don't use French fries, used Steak Fries, and add ketchup or brown sauce
Yep, thick cut chips, buttered bread and its gotta be brown sauce not that tom ketchup rubbish
Possibly an urban legend, but ASDA is the abbreviation of Associated Dairies.
Nah not urban legend, you're right!
I thought the joke with the sheep was that the wire fence in front of it makes like a block pattern .... just like the different cuts of meat you can get from the animal
Schrodinger's toaster!
We live in Eastbourne and on a clear day can see France.
Voila means there it is…there you are. It’s one of those words that have remained after the U.K were speaking French for 600 yrs.
11:13 Toaster never taken out of the box. The thing that's wrong is the toaster isn't in the box.
Aaawww JJ, I’m about to visit America for the first time this June 2024 and can’t wait to meet all you great people. I will be in the Orlando area but not as a tourist but working. It is really going to be a fantastic time I know and the cultural differences will surely make much laughter between us all.
I would so love to tell you much more about the UK in general and teach you about our land. Always happy to help x
The perfect job meme; there was a guy on tv once, bbc news i believe, where under his name in place of occupation it simply said 'former child'
I claimed expert by experience once, when someone said I didn't know anything about kids because i didn't have any. I said no, but I used to be one.
In the US you 'run' for office, in the UK we 'stand' for election.
I remember a Frenchman saying that British people are very good at being politely rude.
And the French are expert at being rudely rude.
It’s hard to make sense of someone being rude yet polite about it, but somehow it does make sense. Lol.
Obviously you still get genuinely rude people as well.
The Garlic bread expert one makes me think about, that nowadays "expert" is a very relative term, because it seems like you can be/call yourself an expert in anything nomatter how big or small, and some tv show might get an interview with you, especially if it is "agurketid"(cucumber time) as we in Denmark call those times for example durring summer, where there is not that many big things to report about, so it seems like the media just make up some news or will make a big deal out of even the smallest little thing to seem relevant.
France is so close you can see boats of refugees setting off from the beaches from the cliffs of Dover while the French police can never stop them…. It’s amazing.
The black chunks are the ends of the glasses arms. They were folded into her bake. 😁
You can get free advent calendars for your phone. Love them. 🎄❤️
You can only have proper chip butties if you have great bread and great butter and the chips have to be hot so the butter melts.
You can indeed see the cliffs of Dover from Calais in France.
general communication lol, its groupchat brother, love your stuff btw
We have a party bucket of Maltesers, where can I buy one?. You have never lived until you've had a chip butty with brown sauce
And what's more, regarding 8:54, we use real dinosaur in our nuggets, not that horrible artificial junk from the US.
Well, it might not be that hard to drive if you’re driving an automatic on wide roads, but we drive manuals on tiny tiny, almost singletrack roads
The Cheapest Advent calendars I saw in the UK last Xmas (2023) were £1.50, so yes you can buy them for £2.00.
Yay for Granny! 😊
They were *CHIPS* NOT 'French Fries'. In some UK Cities it is Still a Capital Offence (From the nearest Lamppost), to make a *Chip butty* out of French Fries
And quite right too.
It's adorable watching you not get all the jokes :-)
11:13 toaster never taken out of box, and it's out of box that's the joke!
The uk driving test is actually quite difficult, theres a lot to it and theyre extremely strict, its common to fail it at least once and expensive to take.
12:40 Art Garfunkel has really let himself go.
There is a sign outside one of the many coffee shops in town that states 'Best coffee in London'. I live in Hertford, Hertfordshire.
Chip butties - made with REAL chips - are DELICIOUS!
Calamari is fried squid isn't it?
GC is a group chat.
The Grand in the 8 grand is what we normally call £1000. And yeah, it’s a pisstake on the cost of living.
they are chips NOT french fries, french fries are what Mcdonalds sell.......
The Tesco seemingly with the clock tower is at East Didsbury in Manchester. It was built on a site that was formerly a Corporation bus garage which they demolished apart from the clock tower, that remains in isolation of the supermarket.
As a Brit, having Trump's second-in-command (I think?) be the first internet result of 'pence' is just BIZARRE to me.
It's delicious, but you must butter both slices chips have to have salt and vinegar and perhaps either tomato sauce or brown sauce.
Love you searching for the right word for Barbara 😅
11:23 the ad says "never taken out of the box" yet the picture clearly shows it out of the box.
Ball tanning 😂😂 wow, learnt something new today.
Toasting outside the box
British chips are definitely not French fries, they are thicker cut potatoes and not rolled in flour before cooking. On thick white bread with salted butter and some then a splash of malted vinegar on the chips, chip butties are a wonderful comfort food
JJ if you're gonna try a chip butty please make sure you use proper chips (not French fries) ie steak cut chips I think you refer to them as in the US
Not all dishes, etc, can be washed in a dishwasher. You can ruin your fine bone china and crystal glasses in one, read the box or the label/notice on the bottom.
I never expected to learn about testicle sun bathing today 😂
These were really funny, thanks for reacting to this, wishing you well
That was the button you press on a pedestrian crossing.
If stranger things was British then it would still be called stranger things as that's a very English saying.
I'm surprised the murican one wasn't called 'That ain't darn tootin'.
In Australia it'd be 'Pretty Suss'.
Bless your heart ❤ Our trains don't have A.I. otherwise they'd be going on strike for better track! 😂
I've heard that most cheap calamari was cow intestines, but that's just a myth. It's all squid, just not all squid are equal.
looked like onion rings to me not squid rings
'Dont eat organs yall'
Me: sitting eating toast and pate 🤤 too late!
A friend of mine drove 300 mile round trip from his home to Wales and back in 4th gear, didn't realise he had a 5th gear.
the toaster is out of the box
Calamari is not "just pig" (well, it may be in the USA).....Calamari is rings of squid body, washed and then dipped in batter ir breadcrumbs. Delicious, unless overcooked, then its like rubber.
The diving test in the UK is in 2 parts, part 1 -driving theory; part 2 - stringent test of driving skill and knowledge.
GC - group chat.
Its out of the box
11:20 - Ah bless his little heart.
:D JK Great stuff thanks!
I don't get that dishwasher one, first thing I do whenever I go anywhere new, whether it's a hotel, or I move house, is open up every single door, cupboard, figure out what all the switches do etc
The I Pad was classic
