If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make weekly "comedy" videos every Sunday evening. As an American living in London I love noticing the funny differences between the cultures and one of my most popular video series is my British VS American one. I'm also known for making terrible puns so sorry in advance. Hope to see you around, and I'll see you next Sunday! :)
If you want to know HOW I make my videos including gear, lighting, all the tiddly bits that connect it all together, (with cheaper alternatives and kit I used to use), I've listed each item, what it's great at, and why I use it on the gear section of my website here:

You don't understand how people can have 10 cups of tea a WEEK? Honestly I thought it would be more than that, that's not even 2 a day, which is my baseline.
Definitely brought down by people like me who don't drink tea at all! Based on people I know, I reckon tea drinkers average 3-5 cups a day.
@@ruth649We drink way more than that in Ireland. Everyone I know who drinks tea, drinks at least 5 - 10 per day, with some drinking much more. I don't know many people who don't drink tea.
Yeah I tend to drink about 5 or 6 cups of tea a day.
I was shocked by this, I must have at least 6 a day and that’s after at least 3 coffees in the morning
@ShizuruNakatsu Plenty of people do drink more! But I also know people who drink both coffee and tea, and people who'll only have 1-2 cups a day, so I'm guessing they'll bring the average down from the hardcore 8+ cups tea drinkers.
Evan: “Emma drinks 10 cups of tea a week”
Me: “You mean day, surely?”
I'd say double it. 21 cups a week is 3 a day, enough to get her one at breakfast (her cereal of choice), one at break (she'd have her fave crisps here), & one at lunch (most likely a sandwich or two). She'd stick to water in the afternoon, & at dinner, Sundays & a couple of other times she'd have some wine, Fridays (her junk food day) she'd have a couple of soft drinks, & the rest of the time she'd just have water. Late at night while relaxing on a weeknight with her shows & socials, she'd drink something like hot chocolate or malted milk, with a biscuit or two.
Emma would never have a qualification in . . .MATH . . . She would spell it correctly . . .mathS . . .!
Averaged out with those that don't drink tea.
Yeah I thought he was going to say per day. People really underestimate how much tea the English drink.
Not even cups, everyone I know uses mugs which hold about 25% more than a cup. When I visit my stepdad we drink at least 2 mugs over the course of 4 hours or so, might hit 3 if I stay longer. My grandparents ONLY drank tea, although usually really weak. Never felt caffeine impacts my sleep (though to be fair, I have odd sleep patterns no matter what I do), in fact I sleep better as it flushes the kidneys so I'm less likely to wake up with kidney pains.
Bottom line, I'm more likely to sleep better if I hydrate well through the day no matter what I drink (except alcohol of course).
A 5' 4'' woman called Emma here who works in healthcare from a retail background. I have an A Level in Maths and 2 other STEM subjects too. You're right Evan, I don't quite have a degree (although I will in literally 2 weeks from now). Lovely to hear how average I am
Hi Emma, do you ask Michael a lot of questions while watching TV or do you just have different tastes? I'm deeply invested in how this heart breaking sofa rift came about.
Hi Emma. Hows your day?
Hi Emma, when you breaking up with Michael??
@@r3cy hi, it initially came up just because we enjoy different genres, but as time goes on, it becomes clearer that I just prefer my own space
@@evan as soon as I can buy him out of our £306,000 house
As a British Emma, currently engaged to be married to a Michael, both born in the 80s, watching this makes me realise our life is a cliche!😂
😂😂😂 Wonderful! 😅
Have a lovely day! ❤
I hope you don't have exactly the average number of children
He better be doing his fair share of the ironing Emma, or the wrath of the internet will come down upon him.
@@catT5236 I'm sure they can iron it out without us getting all steamed up about it. Thank you.
Oi luv/bruv, you alright?
🙄
Everyone asks "who is Emma?" But no one asks "How is Emma?"
but also: WHY is Emma?
@@BlackCatBritt
Well you see, my son/daughter, when a mother and a father loves eachother...
❤
@@BlackCatBritt I'll do you one better : "When is Emma ?"
Well I'm asking "Where is Emma?"
My right hand is getting tired
10 cups of tea a week are Rookie numbers, 10 a day on the other hand would be overkill.
I used to have 10 mugs a day. Typically one every hour and a half. A little less now but probably about seven or eight sizeable mugs.
In Ireland, 10 a day is normal. My father drinks 7 - 10 and my mother drinks more than 15 (17 - 20) per day, and she's not the only one I know who does. 10 is definitely normal here, though I personally only drink 4 or 5.
I drink 2 to 6 mugs a day, but my mugs are 750ml (or maybe a little more), so the equivalent of 6 to 18 'cups' a day, maybe. Long work days I'll drink 8 mugs, but that's an exception.
@@UnknownUser-rb9pd Yes, that's about right. No milk, no sugar, just black tea.
10 a day is certainly not overkill. That's just a normal working day's tea intake for me.
if Emma was born in 1983 and works at boots, there is no way emma owns a home! even in Leicestershire! unless her partner Michael is a banker. and if Michael is not contributing in the bedroom, or even watching shows together. he better be paying more than 1/2 of the mortgage!
It shows you how completely worthless averages are. It’s what happened with Ireland’s GDP. A few outliers skew results.
Also unlikely to have voted Brexit. Women under 40 in 2016 would have chosen to Remain (c.70%)
Completely agree. This is total rubbish.
Oh agreed. This does not make sense.
Make this a series! Emma could meet the most average people from around the globe
+
Yes I second this! Fab idea OP!
Or at least from Spain and Greece...
As a Michael I am quite concerned about some of these attitudes that I seem to have
Smh Michael
👀
I'm married to a (British) Michael. 😬 In his defence, he's really crap at ironing and I used to do it professionally.
I'm thinking Michael really doesn't want to watch the female fodder on TV. He may also be dumped within the next few years as Emma fully embraces the strong empowered female sisterhood trend. Then wonders why she feels lonely while Michael's doing just fine on his own.
@@outtheredude 😂
The only time that I drink tea is when my previous cup runs out.
I reckon Emma voted remain - whilst she is supposed to be the average Brit, the majority of women and the majority of people aged 25-34 (she was 32 at the time) voted remain.
Also she had A levels so would be more likely to have voted Remain.
@@blotskiAnother good point!
@@blotski That is absolute rubbish. I would say that if you are uneducated and left wing you would be more likely to vote Remain.
That's what happens when you just take averages of everything
10 cups of tea is less than I drink every day.
Omg
I thought the same 😂
It is an average so some people drink less.
You need help. That amount of caffeine isn't healthy.
@@coolcatcher126definitely isn't an average
I put it to you that ironing is neither a woman's or a man's or anyone else's job as it is the most pointless of household chores!
Unless you have a job interview or a wedding or something then it is allowable.
Man here. I've mostly done the ironing in my relationships with women, because they can't seem to iron shirts correctly. It's just been a thing, I've experienced. I'm sure there are some women who can iron perfectly well but not in my experience. I've done this since my late teens.
I didn’t realise ironing still happened. So long as I take my clothes from the dryer as soon as it finishes and hang it up, no wrinkles!
I find ironing pointless because as soon as I wear the ironed clothing it gets wrinkled just from wearing it.
@@Thurgosh_OG Need to train her better.
Got rid of my iron years ago, I think! 😂
Well played on rhyming "Leicestershire" with "rest assured" 😂😂😂
Emma lives a significantly better life than anyone I personally know who was born in the 80s.
Probably coz she's an elder millennial - she got on the housing ladder while it was still relatively easy to do!
its the house that's throwing things off. I'm a few years younger and don't know anyone living in a 300k house on her salary with no university degree. stick her in a rented terrace and it's a lot more familiar
That’s because the average is heavily skewed by the comparatively much wealthier older generations.
@@TheTfrules also, London. London is so out-of-step with the rest of the country in so many ways, it skews a lot of averages.
The fact that Emma thinks that everything including socks and underwear need ironed is the main reason why Emma and not michael who is doing the ironing. When I lived alone, the only thing I bought an iron for was "business smart" shirts. Even then I discovered the trick to hang them on a hanger while wet and they dry crease free, so the iron only came out for super special meetings.
Which is also why women spend more time doing housework than men. Women seem to find housework that needs doing out of nowhere. Same with my laundry. When I lived alone, used to only do it once a fortnight. Once I met my wife, she's finding laudry to do 2 or 3 times a week 😵
I don't even own an iron 😂
@@JiminyClarkson As a man who lives alone, I find that laundry generally needs doing Roughly three times in two weeks... It could be pushed out to once a week if I had a larger washing machine (and washing line). If I was doing it less often I'd be doing two loads at a time.
Still, I know some of that is down to some personal habits regarding how long I wear specific things between washing them which Could be done differently.... but part of it is simply down to the existence of bed sheets.
Basically, there's a sheet that needs washing every week (not two, mind you), and it takes up enough space in the washing machine that a whole week's worth of other stuff won't fit in with it.
I also know of quite a number of women who just... don't do housework unless someone else is all but forcing them to, even when they live alone and Really Really should. It's not entirely a matter of what sex one is.
Generally speaking, there are a number of household chores that it's better to get on top of quckly and often, because it takes less time and causes less stress (not to mention any other relevant benefits)... and then there's the ones that only need to be done once a week or so... and the ones that only need to be done infrequently when the reach the point where not doing them would be a problem... If you treat the first category as if it was the last, you're going to end up having problems eventually, but the same is true (if usually less catastrophically) in reverse, too.
@@JiminyClarkson Nah, I just ignore it. I wash stuff when the basket overflows, I clean if someone's coming over. Other than that, a base level of 'that'll do' pretty much covers it. I think this might just be your wife, not 'women'.
Irons are useful for emergency drying of just washed clothes.
Emma probably bought her house around 2005 when it was a fraction of the price of today and you could get 100% mortgages with no deposit...
As a Brit, tea is the only thing I eat.
You eat tea? The afternoon meal or actual tea leaves? Because I'm sure you're supposed to drink tea 😂
@@franklingoodwin nah I eat it as my only form of sustenance.
@@franklingoodwinhaha, they’re likely from the north of England. We in the north have tea ☕️ and we have breakfast, dinner and tea instead of breakfast, lunch and Dinner. We don’t have 11’s we have tea ☕️ time and tea 🥘 time.
The only exception to this rule is Sunday Dinner which can be consumed at both dinner and tea and will always be called Sunday Dinner.
It as a rule consists of
(Beef, pork, lamb or Chicken) joint
Potatoes (roasted or mashed)
Yorkshire puddings
Stuffing
3 Veg
Gravy.
For afters we can also have a pudding. Though this isn’t really a thing anymore.
And, as a Brit, fish & chips is the only thing I drink! 😂
@@gary.h.turner same, couldn’t live without at least 16 cups of fish & chips a day!
This video's subject matter was very random. And it was fantastic! This channel is great for people who want to learn new things and expand their horizons.
you messed up how life expectancy works, emma is already 41 so has a much higher chance of becoming older than the life expectancy.
Oh yes good point!
@@evan According to the ONS Life Expectancy Calculator at age 41 Emma has a life expectancy of 87 years when statistically she is also less likely to be having sex very much.

What a great way to present Ms Average using statistics, and more importantly how the UK has changed over 40 years. Thanks for the hard work to present this so brilliantly.
Some context for the Christian country thing - It's a fact that the UK is a Christian country. We have a state religion. It's just that most people don't believe in it. So i can quiet easily imagine people answering yes to that question while also answering they're not a believer.
Wrong. Our head of state is Christian. That doesn't make us a Christian country. There's a difference between culturally Christian and actually Christian. We are culturally Christian (not even real Christianity because Church of England). We are a secular country. Don't believe me - former PM Rishi Sunak said Britain is a secular country in 2020 and even Anglican priests believe The UK isn't Christian.
@@franklingoodwin The audacity to start your comment with "wrong" and then basically agree with me.
I literally said the majority were secular. The one thing you got wrong is that we do have an official state religion. Which is why i speculated people were answering yes to that question. When Rishi and those unnamed priests said that, they were speaking about belief. I was speaking about our state religion. Surely you can see those are different?
I found it ironic (and I resented it a bit) that when I helped my friend do her census online at the are you religious question she ticked the " no particular beliefs" yet she is a signed up member of the local German Lutheran church,she goes to services,to their social afternoons,coffee mornings,on the summer outing,and all sorts. Yet I believe in God but I'm not a regular churchgoer and not an Anglican. I ticked the Christian box. Like Richard Dawkins I am a "cultural Christian" even if I dont hang around congregations for what I can get.
“The U.K.” doesn’t actually have a state religion. England and Scotland have different established churches, the monarch is head only of the C of E and when he crosses the border becomes merely a member of the Church of Scotland and has no position in it or authority over it. You might remember that was demonstrated at Charles’ investiture when he had to affirm the monarch’s oath not to interfere with the exercise of religion in Scotland? That oath was one of the conditions of the Union, and came about because both of Charles’ 17th century namesakes had tried to force the Scots to recognise their authority over religion - resulting in near civil war and (under Charles II) a major campaign of repression that killed thousands of civilians.
@@BardianAngel I didn't agree with you. You were playing semantic games. We are a secular country and another commentator below has actually proved this in more depth. Never be this guy 🤓
The average Brit does NOT have an 'A' level in _'Math'._
Emma sounds like she’s doing a lot better than most people I know.
Is she doing better than around 50% of people?
@@oliverpolden Probably. I am pretty sure a lot of these statistics use mean values. For a lot of things this doesn't make much sense. For example:
-Income or house value is skewed by the richest in society. The very richest in society add a lot of money to these averages, if you remove the top 5% and bottom 5% and recalculate the value, it drastically changes, lowering it by a fair amount.
Think about it this way, 100 people earn £10ph but 1 person earns £10,000ph
The average a person earns in this system would be around £108ph but only 1 person was earning above £10ph.
The mix of the use of different averages makes this video a bit hard to follow tbf
Justice for Emma ✊
Michael is being given a bad rap here.
So Emma prefers crisps and cookies to biscuits.
News flash...in the UK cookies ARE biscuits, even those biscuits with cookie in their brand name.
No cookies are softer
incorrect.
American ignorance.
No, a cookie is a different thing in the UK
This the best data storytelling, keep it up!
As an ex Boots employee, if Emma works at Boots she definitely does not think she gets paid well for what she does!
"those are rookie numbers!" LMAO I used to bosh 5-7 cups a DAY! I still eeasily do 3. Routine... Boil kettle, take hay fever pill, make tea...then more tea a bit later, then onto the day!
Yeah, it's so sad that if I don't have my hayfever pill first thing that's the day's productivity ruined. Hayfever is a scourge!
Surely that should be 10 mugs (with milk no sugar) a day (my average!)🤣🤣😋
That's right. I slosh when I walk. 😂
I'm Italian, I drink two mugs of tea a day. With gocciole in the morning.
Ten cups of tea PER WEEK! What a lightweight! A minimum of five cups per day is my consumption ( after which I move on to alcohol).
this entire video read my mum like a book
This was very funny video Evan, well done and very informative.
Gemma here, born summer 1983, my brother is called Michael and I buy all the items.... I've never felt more generic 😂

4:40 - BMI is a metric tuned for men and shouldn't be used to determine obesity in women.
This measures the average person who like to take surveys.
Plus anything from YouGov I don't trust. I used to be subscribed and they stopped sending me surveys once they figured out which way I leaned politically. Seemed obvious they deliberately weight who they send surveys to in order to get the answer they want.
I actually used to be subscribed to several survey sites, they all stopped sending me anything when they figured out I was an unemployed disabled person.
I think it would be interesting to do this based on the average Londoner.

I've been up for 2 hours. On my 3rd cup of tea of the day.
And unlike coffee. Due to how little caffeine is in a cup of tea compared to a cup of coffee. I've found you can have a tea 4 hours before bed time. And sleep like a baby.
Yet if a coffee is consumed after 3pm. Yes. Come 11pm I'm still wired.
5 cups of tea is my average. With 1-2 liters of water and 1 can of soft drink.
Ironing is nobody's job: I quit 20 years ago: there are more important things in life. I also do not give a monkey's about politicians or anybody else's sex life: consenting, informed adults and mutual respect (love not being necessary for sex) is all I care about.
I am 68 and a dual national (French and Swiss) living in the UK, consuming 10 cups of tea a day, and I eat a lot of veg! Emma sounds like a lot of my younger work colleagues and friends!
I also gave this video a thumbs up for the meta commentary 😂
Wasn’t expecting the ONS mention when I clicked on this video but yay! I work there! 😊
I'd love to work there but I live in West Yorkshire.
I drink 2 cups of tea a day, so 14 a week. BUT my mug is basically pint sized, so it would probably be 4 a day if I used normal sized mugs 😂
Isn't the sports direct mug just considered the standard now
@@bennuter not with the people I know 😂
I live in the Midlands and you can easily find houses worth
Bought a house for £79k three years ago in Rotherham. Two streets down, the average price is £55k!
You'd be lucky to get a house for £400k in Essex.
I for one hang my clothes to dry carefully to minimise ironing and probably iron one item , usually a shirt, a month. I don't think I look creased.
9:39 Ironing is not a job: it is unnecessary, so I don't do it.
I find it fascinating that I don’t know anyone who could be described as an Emma, despite being almost the same age and being in the same country.
Butter
Orange juice
Pasta
Cheese
Flour
most people aren´t bang on average
How are you buying flour everytime you go the supermarket?
@@randomness051 If you like baking or cooking things that include pasty etc I can see that. (also flour is used for a lot of non-food stuff like flour/or baking soda/ + superglue equals an incredibly strong bonding agent) Still buying some EVERYTIME you go sounds more like someone is just misplacing some 😅
I know loads.
It takes quite a bit to get through a bag of pasta, a tub of butter and a bag of flour. So I take it you don't go to the supermarket very often. In fact, even in our fortnightly 'big shop' we don't get pasta and flour every time. I go at least a couple of times a week or maybe more often to the mini supermarket around the corner to get things that go off quickly like milk, bread, ham etc. Something not quite right about your list. I don't believe you are the one in charge of shopping and are randomly guessing weird items.
My name is Emma and I got very concerned when I saw the video title haha

How can Emma own her house outright at 41? Well done Emma.
She doesn't. All the old people included in the data skew the "average"
Inheritance
This guy’s an American so he thinks having one’s name on the mortgage note equates to “owning.” That’s how homeownership is marketed here.
FYI: Weetabix is only unsweetened by the standards of an American. It contains some added sugar. Interesting video thanks
Ah yes, the deeply misleading label of ‘owns home’ when the only thing they own is debt. 😅
But, they’re allowed to *live* in the home that the bank owns and which they are working to hopefully own some day, assuming no loss of income occurs for too long in a 30 year period. Because if that happens, they have to file a form with the government to have all of their housing data for surveys/reports like these to be retroactively changed to ‘renter’.
A huge lie we all fell for,well not me as despite storming the gates,back 50 years ago,the Gatekeepers put me in the picture. You're a Girlie,girlies don't do things like that. Yes,you earn loadsa money - but you no gotta man. So go away and shut up. Besides its raining,and it's Tuesday. All good valid reasons why you can't use your money to buy a house to live in. Not as investment. I feel sad to see how so many young people who back in the day,like all my (paired up) peers would be already living in the house they'd signed up for,are now turned I to ME,at home with Mum and Dad to 50+.
Incorrect. You technically own the home, the bank doesn't have their name on the deeds do they?
But you do also own the debt of the loan the bank has secured against the property.
@@anthsunstrider I don’t know what country you live in, but in mine - their name is absolutely on the title. Why wouldn’t it be? Who loans you hundreds of thousands of dollars then expects you to pay it back by your word alone?
Most Brits do have hayfever, though this is really down to air pollution (especially fine particulates) causing hypersensitivity rather than pollen.
I love Weetabix. Too bad they are not available in Colorado. I meant to buy tea today, but I forgot. Well, "tea", as the stuff I drink is herbal.
Don't diss our love of tea!

Well props to John Green for the idea :) his one on the average American is what inspired this!
I drink more than 10 cups of tea every day.
I’d love to know how much of the milk we buy goes into tea. With my family it’s literally 100%, we don’t use milk for anything else
We need something fun for the Paris Olympics coming up.
I've cut down on caffeine recently but I think I drank about 8 cups of tea a day on average. I think some day I probably drank 10 in a day.
I gave this a like for the meta commentary. Someone please meta-like this commentary.
Milk (unless you said eggs) is the only thing in her grocery list that's the same as mine. When it comes to tea, I drink at least 2 pots of Yorkshire tea (2-3 teabags) per weekend on average and weekdays 2 cups - at work I drink 3-4 cups of coffee. My body is so accustomed to caffeine I don't feel any noticeable difference, and I sleep better when I drink at least one mug of tea right before bed.
Milk, yoghurt, apples, cucumbers and oats for porridge (what every week groceries must include for our family in Finland).
How do you eat the cucumbers? No tomatoes with your cucumbers?
@@klimtkahlo I toss them in a salad, I cut them as sticks with what other vegetables/fruit we have for my young kids to snack on or have as sides or slice them thinly to put on a slice of bread with cheese/ham/pepperoni/wht every we might have. Best Finnish snack by far is thin slice of toasted rye bread with (reindeer) salami and cucumbers.
Nice to know I'm not average, My name's not Emma. I have a masters degree but do work in healthcare. I'm from Leicestershire but live 200miles away from there. My favourite cuisines are Thai Korean and Italian and I drink beer, wine, gin, pretty much everything really. My most frequently bought things are peppers, chicken, milk ( 1l) white bread rolls and beer. Oh and I also drink an average of 3 cups of COFFEE a day in the morning and 2 cups of tea in the afternoon, one after dinner at around 9pm.
Mother use to have about 20 to 30 cups of instant coffee a day as a teacher so looked at 10 a week as minimal caffeine, almost caffeine free!
Skimmed milk, Bran flakes, veggieburgers, baps for the veggieburgers, some kind of cheese. My most common five items
BMI is nonsense
It's merely a guide and can be misused by medical people.
Here it is actually for once used exactly as it is meant to be... Statistically. It is too imprecise for individualised medical advice or to draw too strong conclusions from, but is sound enough for comparing rates of obesity or malnourishment across populations.
Eh, less nonsense, more misunderstood and misappropriated. It's the same as IQ.
Both work from a purely statistical standpoint because humans like neat little boxes. Neither work from a practical application standpoint because humans like neat little boxes, which humans, by nature of being literally of nature, are too messy to stay inside.
Somebody who is very muscular with little body fat will show up as "overweight"
Arnold Schwarzenegger at the peak of his physical fitness was classed as obese based on his BMI.
The views on this video is CRIMINALLY SMALL. This is so well edited!! The stats are SMOOOOTH.
@evanedinger you should make a video Collab with another German UA-camr and do a video on the most Average German Person!
Well thanks! But the video is doing quite well for my channel. And I honestly thought it would bomb and no one would watch it. My audience always puzzles me! Hence why I make vids for me ;)))
Upvote for me,pretty spot on,overall ! 👌👍
P.S. Work at ASDA,and we are generally;non-judgemental about your dietary concerns [8:25] ! 😂😂

Tea: You know you're British when the first thing you do when you get home is put the kettle on.
Personally I drink about 5-6 mugs of tea day, plus a few coffees. Decaf these days though.
If we confine ourselves to heterosexual relationships, and assume that the ration of male to female is very close to equal, then it is mathematically impossible for the average (mean) male to have 5 female partners and for females to have an average of 3 partners. Of course, the mode or median can yield different results, but even so it's a big disparity. Maybe if that was the median, then a relatively small number of women working in the sex industry could cause a very large discrepancy, but I have my doubts (after all, a lot of men are customers in that very same industry).
My suspicion is that the large discrepancy is more about differences in the way men and women respond to the survey and that the answers are not necessarily accurate.
5 items from the shop -- milk bread butter cheese and nearly always chicken or/and salad foods.
I was about to say she's definitely not a Londoner, working in boots and owning a house on that salary. Her monthly take home wouldn't even cover my rent here.
Her take home isn't covering it anywhere. She can only live that lifestyle with Michael's salary as well
@@randomness051 Sorry yep you are right, as a loner I forget most people live with others.
@@randomness051 He's got to be good for something! 😂
My five items are milk, yogurt, bread, fruit and chocolate. Ten cups a day is really low. I would have said the average Brit drinks around 5+ cups a day. Saying that, I drink 2 cups of coffee a day and rarely drink tea!
My sister was born in 83 and obviously is called Emma!
My 5 items are tea bags , milk , suger , pack of biscuits (for dunking in tea ) and a pack of mixed vegatables . Lol 🤣😂
I am distinctly non-average on *so* many things lol 😆
To solve cashier judgement, I shout in my head, "Assume I get a veg box from elsewhere"!! I actually don't and just have a terrible diet!
Though I'm now an atheist, as is the majority of people I know, I still say that the UK is a Christian country, because it is constitutionally. The monarch is the head of the Anglican Church, and part of the House of Lords contains bishops (but they don't tend to have the conservative opinions you'd think so it's not like the US Senate containing a whole load of Southern Baptists. The Church of England _tends_ to lean to the left. The majority of right-leaning members of the General Synod left when women vicars were allowed. Those of us who'd fought for this held the door open for them to go faster).
So that might answer the points regarding Emma's apparently unusual answer to that question.
Also, I think you can be culturally Christian without actually believing in it (as an individual or a country). That's how I would describe myself. I was raised atheist but still celebrate Christmas and have a worldview informed by Christian values.
I have 10 cups of tea Monday to Friday, 10 cups of tea Saturday, 10 cups of tea Sunday...
NB I noticed at about 08:45 you said the figure 5,500 as 'fifty five hundred'. That is a very American habit. Most Brits would say it as 'five thousand, five hundred'. I'm not judging, just commenting.
We're British Somalis, and while I might have 2 or 3 cups of tea a week, my mom has at least 2 cups of tea per day lol.
In German: Max Mustermann und Erika Musterfrau.
You called it "The Asda" 🤣
We accept you, one of us.
That's like 'The Scousers' in Harry Enfield calling London 'That London'...
@@lordprotector3367 real London is London, Ontario, didn't you know?
@@grassytramtracks Nah, It's London Colney.
😂😂😂 the swearing at Michael is killing me
"It's not your job.. but footies on so can you do it anyway?"
And WOW, "your mother is a stinkin' wh-" 😂😂
Nice to see someone who finds you amusing, even if it is only you.
I don't like tea (nobody can ever understand or remember this. I started a new job 4 months ago and people still ask me) but my mum drinks 2/3 cups a day.
What's with the suit Evan? Trying out a new look?
Ditto! The smell makes me feel nauseous!
Coffee is better. I don't drink it either
@@franklingoodwinI don't drink tea or coffee
You're other half is absolutely right, I must have at least 6 cups a day.
