Say what you want, there is an obsession, whenever someone says something stupid they ask “are you American”, or the very first country you think of is America, like the whole 100 Brits vs 100 Americans, of course a British person started that

Why is there such a weird obsession? Especially when most Americans aren’t thinking about British people at all, why are British people always trying to get attention from them? It’s strange
