Im always impressed by European people's ability to understand Brits better than we can understand ourselvesor any other language. We had very rudimentary French Language lessons at school with no real emphasise of actually learning anything about the language. But on the continent they learn English as a second language and most are multilingual, which puts Britain to shame.

This is very true. I also hate the arrogance of British people going abroad and talking English at the locals.I was actually referring though to the fact that "lul" is Dutch slang for penis. Having said that though we can use phrases like cocky and dicky without so much as a snigger.
