Loins getting drunk

BLW

How do you tell people that they're a bunch of jerks, first, when they've done nothing to you, personally, and without sounding holier than thou? This is the final problem I had with the Brits, before our time "learning" was up, and we were about to go back to the Yeshiva. Remember, first, that the British are supposed to be an exceedingly orderly and respectful people.

^Right.^

Well, not these guys, anyway.

Right before we were to leave Paduel, the administration of Paduel showed extreme generousity, and finished up our stay with them with a fully paid trip to Eilat. Eilat is Israel's equivilant of California. Bright, sunny, incredibly overpriced, yet beautiful, full of tourists, and places to accommodate them, natural, or man-made. Our tour involved an apparently expensive jeep tour, and we went in one of the many caves, on a tour.

This particular cave is refered to as the "flour cave," since the sand in it, and the walls are made up of a very fine white sand. It's very beautiful, very inspiring, and I'm sure it has some wonderful stories to tell.

Here's the story that the British relayed.

"Remember when we were back here three years ago, and it we met up with that American group? So, we started throwing sand at them, and dropping it in their faces, and they were all complaining, because either they were wet from sweat or water they had poured on themselves and the sand stuck to them, or because "we're wearing our designer clothes. So, then they asked us to stop, and we threw it into the girls faces, and then just kept pegging all of them with the sand?"

"Oh right...they were such cunts. They sent their two biggest blokes to go punch us and beat us up. Then when we told on them, their entire group decided to just wait till we were out of the cave."

"Right, ::giggle:: but remember, we hid behind a wall for them to come, and then we kept pelting them. Then they didn't know what to do. They tried complaining to our leader, but he started pegging them also. So they just sat there defeated, while we screamed 'God Save the Queen,' in their faces. And the moron yanks tried to sing their national anthem to compete, but they couldn't remember the words!!!"

OK, so the Brits in this group keep laughing at this story, but it bothered me that they were laughing, not at themselves, but at the 'moron Yanks.' I don't know if it's the fact that it was my nation that bothered me more, or the fact that they behaved like such jerks.
