26 Marvellously British Problems That Make Life Awkward For Us All

24. Right, I Should Think About Making A Move

After unleashing a torrent of utterly pointless small talk with that random person you haven't seen for ages, vaguely know and have conversed with briefly in the past, you end up at a horrible junction of awkward where you both sort of stare at each other for no apparent reason. Normal protocol would be to say bye at this point but we all, inevitably, end up saying 'Right, I should really think about making a move.' or some variation of this phrase when trying to get rid of someone you don't really want to talk to.

23. Weather Obsession

Why do we do it? Nobody actually likes talking about the weather, yet we all end up rabbiting on about how its a glorious day or how the rain is awful, even though it rains practically every single day ever. It's a truly bizarre affliction where we have to awkwardly converse about the weather, usually before launching into the more important part of the conversation. Sales people do this all the time, launching into a tirade about the latest happenings weather-wise where they are before they snatch away your money.

22. Biccie Dunkage Levels

Supermarket biscuits aisles are a truly unique place. In any British supermarket, from dawn til dusk, you'll find confused-looking people staring at the massive wall of biscuits ahead of them. Deciding which biscuits are right for you is an extremely important part of British culture. You must select the biscuits which can withstand a good dunk in your tea as choosing the wrong one can lead the mother of all horrors where your biccie falls in your brew and turns into a congealed mess. Screw nutrition information - we want dunkage information on our biccie packets!

21. Sunlight Strippers

Literally the second that a ray of sunlight breaks through the gloomy clouds that regularly blanket Britain, various flabby, completely untanned individuals will rip off their t-shirts like Hulk Hogan and stride around like they're The Rock. Everyone else then wears their sunglasses in the hope that they'll not be able to see these people as much.
