“American English still warrants the attention of journalists, politicians, and scholars alike in the UK, not always in a kindly or objective way. Often it is regarded as an aberrant version of English. Most Americans would object to this latter classification, at least given the postwar global influence of American culture and vocabulary. Still, “We gave you a perfectly good language. Why can’t you speak proper English?”

So all I have to say – we had language first, you ruined it. Therefore we are right and you are wrong *does the Cartman I told you so routine – ha ha ha ha ha ha*. Just cause Americans think they rule the world they think that all of us should start using your spellings consisting of words with less vowels so that more people would be smart enough to spell them. It’s a bitter and painful pill isn’t it……you guys are just too dumb to handle correct spelling. *tear*
