Quote #87

I believe that everything went downhill from the moment the McDonalds chain was given license to invade England - don't laugh, I'm serious. To me it was like the outbreak of war and I can't understand why English troops weren't retaliating. The Americanisation of England is such a terminal illness - I think England should be English, and Americans should go home and spoil their own country.
