Be curious to see if I feel the same when I get home. Probably will.
Hey now! As far as patriotism is concerned, I find the world weary cynicism of the English almost nauseating sometimes. Guess it's just a question of perspective.
Besides, we produce such great poets where the patriots are! Check this out the user mark40e (I'm going to learn how to properly link this in a couple of minutes, not yet). Unfortunately I don't believe he's taking the piss or being ironic or being disingenuous.

Oh, if there's one thing that gets my back up about some English people, it's the continual complaining. "Typical, innit? Shit country this, innit?". Yeah? Well, LEAVE then. It's easy enough to do.
Apart from that, I find the lack of flag-waving refreshing these days. Until the football's on, anyway. Then I get fed up with it.
