Brits are fine. Moaning is just a trait you have to ignore.

I can't stand American's insincerity. They greet strangers like long lost brothers, or profess their love for people they only like and everyone ask me how I am, without giving a fuck or tells me have a nice day without giving a I fuck what day I have.

I'm all for manners, but it has to actually mean something. Just say good day or good bye if that's all you mean.

"HI, how are you today?" = Don't for fucks sake tell me, because I don't give a fuck.

"Have a nice day now and come back and see us all." = Like I give a fuck what day you have and phone me first so I can give you an excuse not to see you.
