Why do the French call the Brits roast beefs?
We just call them "bifes" (steaks).
Because they're stupid and couldn't come up with a decent slur for them. "perfidious Albion" is the best slur for the eternal Anglo.
Why not ?

Jesus christ zika is worse than I thought
Because the French think eating normal food is a negative trait
>>60762498
>you're a rosbif because you eat beef
Tell me this isn't kid level banter. "Frog" for the French is funny because you both eat frogs and sound like them when you laugh.
Because they eat roast beef
>>60762650
I-I sound like a frog ?
>>60762612
>British '''''''''''food'''''''''''
>normal
even the frogs with their snail shit isn't as bad as whatever the fuck you guys put in your mouths
The French are animals that can and will be put down.
>>60762612
>coming from the inventor of the "toast sandwich"
>>60762716
>yank banter
Yeah because roast beef is just so abnormal and disgusting
Fuck off yank
Ever seen a Briton in the sun? They turn red. Like rosbif.
Bullshit etymology I just pulled out of my ass: Rosbif. Red - Rood - Rott - Ros
>>60762793
No it literally originates from the fact we eat roast beef
>>60762755
Keep dreaming.
>>60762780
why are you so mad khan?
>>60762755
>The French are animals that can and will be put down.
>>60762828
Oh.
Well that's common.
Ameriburgers, snails for French, etc.
>>60762757
Croque monsieur m8
>>60762931
But Ameriburgers alludes to yanks being fat and the snail/frog thing for the French alludes to how these are seen as disgusting foods in most cultures. Roast beef is just shit banter since there's nothing inherently wrong with it.
>>60762994
What's wrong with eating frogs ?
>>60763031
See this is what I mean lads
>>60762994
True.
So we'll stick with limey.
I like Roast Beef
>>60762793
"Lobster" should have catch on for Brits. Lobsters turn red when boiled/cooked.
>>60763065
A good and properly cooked roast beef is delicious
>>60762714
yes tb.h.
>>60763065
*pats you on the head*
good yank
>>60763065
And those little potatoes, and some green beans...
>>60763101
Redcoats are commobly called Lobsterbacks, though. Especially by Yanks.
>>60763181
That was because of their army uniforms in the 1700's. No one says that anymore
>>60763214
Well, you should.
>>60763271
Nah we like them
>>60762343
You shouldn't really be roasting beef, imho.
>>60763065
I only like it on sandwiches
Roast beef, arugula, some good tomatoes, pretty good
>>60763271
>>60763297
I don't think we have modern in use insults for other countries anymore besides Canucks and Wetbacks.
>>60763302
Nothing beats roast beef with gravy and yorkshire puddings
>>60763404
You forget the french and germans
>>60763044
Why limey?
>>60763427
What do we call them?
I don't think anyone says Kraut anymore and I can't think of what Americans call frogs.
>>60763426
Fuck this thread is making me hungry
>>60763450
>>60763426
You need gravy to go along with it or you'd be constipated for a month not that there's anything wrong with gravy or getting constipated you like what you like and all that.
>>60762478
>"perfidious Albion" is the best slur for the eternal Anglo
And we invented it too, so fuck off, Luigi
>>60763446
Frogs and surrender monkey
And for Germans people still say kraut
>>60763703
>surrender monkey
Do you say "monkeys" because of our large black population? Sounds fucking nazi to me, are you implying the gas chambers didn't exist? ANSWER YOU RACIST, AUSCHWITZ-LOVING SWINE
>>60762478
>"perfidious Albion
this
>>60763703
Funniest insults for Germans are: block-head, shit-eater, boche and crucco.
>>60762343
It was more common in Europe to boil meats but we tended to prefer our beef roasted, the French picked up on it and the name stuck.
>>60762716
meme from a flyover that has never eaten British food, or even been within 2000 of Britain.
>>60763439
British sailors used to keep loads of Limes on their boats, for the sailors to suck on. . .. . keeps Scurvy away. (a disease from lack of vitamin C)
>>60762716
Yanks eat mostly the same shit, just crammed into cardboard boxes and frozen to be heated up later.
>>60764321
>Canadian using the word yank
Holy shit, stop
>>60762828
No, it doesn't. Open a fucking book. The history of it is that you used to visit France for vacations and would burn up in the sun. Hence roast beef.
>>60765664
This.
Even if nowadays roasted hallal sausages would be a proper term
>>60764942
Pretty common here, yankee doodle.
