Anyone else feel British when abroad?
I don't feel British, desu when I'm at home, I find myself feeling less bothered by England than other Irish people who talk about the Brits as if they're some sort of rivals. Whenever I have met Brits in the past abroad, they feel foreign to me but I find as an Irish person, when I''m away and explaining Ireland to people a lot of time I reference British humour, TV shows songs, comedians etc. so they can get an idea what we're like. I might show them something like Hardy Bucks after they've become a bit more acclimatised to the 'British and Irish isles' ways. I kind of realise now that Britain is not really foreign in the way I used to think. Anyone else like this?
Before you jump down my throat, I am IRISH but abroad I feel a certain connection to British culture when talking to other Europeans/Americans etc. Even when I try to explain Irish history, I'm from Dublin, you really can't talk about Irish history without mentioning the fact that Dublin was never really a gaelic city. Our accent and everything is very influenced by the English(and before them Normans/Vikings) Also when people talk about us they mention us in the context of British. When I speak they say you have a British accent. They're wrong technically but they're not wrong in one way. Our accent especially along the coasts is very influenced by them.
>Anyone else feel British when abroad?
No, I feel Irish but I wouldn't make a big point out of it and start embarrassing us like a lot of Irish seem to do abroad. My approach is basically to assume they look down on Irish people by default until I see otherwise
