Brits and Canadians

Brits and Canadians tend to piss me off.  Why?  Because they all MOVE HERE and then BITCH about our government.  I guess to be fair my gripe is not limited to Brits and Canadians.  There are many who willingly move here on their own volition and then complain when things are not to their liking.  No.  This is NOT your home country.  Get over it or go home.  I'll buy your ticket for you. 

Tonight was a perfect example.  I was at a local establishment here in Sonoma County and the table behind me consisted of a Canadian and a Brit.  Both were saying how they loved the Bay Area -- especially Sonoma County (bypassing Marin) because of it's "local, down-home charm" and authentic "organic" people.  Both the Canadian and the Brit were loudly commending the life style that we offer but in the same breath both thinking that they, as new transplants,  knew more about our way of life than we do.  They then began overtly bashing our government but somehow found an enclave of paradise here in Sonoma County.  Now they and their families are arriving in droves but yet bitching about it.  Go home.  Please.  And no, the locals are not "cute, organic scenery" that goes with the territory and no.... we don't want to pose in pictures with you as if you spotted a rare sighting of Big Foot or something. 

Well, I suppose us local hicks never heard a Brit accent before and we are supposed to be wooed and wowed by their perceived intellectual and educational superiority.  We are too naive and uneducated to appreciate the sophistication they bring to us lowly, local farm hands.  Sigh. 

Thank GODS the Brits and Canadians arrived to save us neanderthal Americans from ourselves.  They are only looking out for us as a mother and sister would do.  How, for goddesses sake, did the locals survive for centuries without their snobby, know-it-all attitudes? 

Question:  If life was so great in Canada and Great Britain, why did you move  here?   STFU and go HOME unless you're willing to take a bullet defending our way of life you loudly bitch about but voluntarily migrate to.  That goes for all immigrants.  I don't care where you come from.
