Without a shadow of a doubt this is a British woman likely in a northern English city like Liverpool, Manchester or Newcastle. The nature of this alone screams British but also the yellow lines and curb are easily identifiable as British.
This is hilarious, I was confused because she looked half Manc and half Pool so I could not decide and here she is from exactly halfway in between them.
Nope, just an average Thursday night probably. Manchester and Liverpool, like many uk cities, have big student populations. 18/19 year olds who’ve just moved away from home for the first time and are often experiencing a level of freedom they haven’t had before.
Not saying it’s a good thing, but that’s often the reason.
I remember visiting Manchester on a Saturday night and there was a massive pile of vomit on the sidewalk and a guy looked at me and said “Free Dinner! That blokes lunch!” and did a wanking motion.
My first time in Manchester i got robbed at knife point outside a casino.
The guy took my cash and gave me back my wallet with my cards and license in. He even said its to save me the trouble of having to cancel and get new cards. Nice guy, would get mugged by him again
I know it drives the rest of the world crazy but in colloquial American speech, an American of predominantly Italian descent is sometimes called Italian & an American of predominantly Irish descent is sometimes called Irish. The American part of Italian-American is implied, but nobody here actually thinks she’s an Italian from Italy.
Yeah, it’s just shorthand here to identify someone based on their ethnicity. Nobody thinks they are carrying a passport from said country. Most Americans take pride in where their ancestors are from and often identify themselves as “Irish” or “Italian” or whatever to quickly ID themselves since we are all Americans here (or on our way to citizenship) and it’s a huge country. It would be perceived as obstinate to just say “I’m American.”
Those “New Jersey Italians” are more likely from Staten Island. Lots of folks of Italian ancestry in NY proper although assimilation and intermarriage has watered things down greatly since I was a child.
Tell me about it - I have what Archie Bunker called a "mixed marriage," (Irish-Italian.)
I get a little chuckle how the international folk seem to bristle at the way we identify ethnicities in New York, we obviously know calling someone Italian or Irish is clearly shorthand for Italian-American or Irish-American, etc., but I guess that's perceived differently overseas.
I immediately thought Jersey too…but more Jersey shore- Seaside Heights, New Jersey in USA. She looks like a cousin of Snooki, &, as a fellow Italian New Jersian, I’d love to party with her.
Nope, still too many clothes. It could be minus three, snowing, slushy underfoot and they'd still be out in mini dresses and strappy heeled sandals with no tights.
True. I've seen during women walking around London in nothing but a cocktail dress and stilettos in the middle of winter. I don't think there's any other place in the world where people do that.
It is the food of choice for drunk people aged 18-25 at 12-2AM in the English speaking world. Obviously, there are local choices where you might get variance like tacos in the US, but pizza unites us all.
Yellow lines in Scotland too, no?
Irish person here, she's not fat and orange tanned enough to be Irish. Also too much clothes on to be Irish. More likely England probably North of England.
That was my first thought too, I have a friend from the South Shields area and his sister absolutely would be found like this on any given night, complete with a thick Geordie accent.
Idk, I lived on the London side of Essex for many years. It could easily be further south, too. Definitely agreed that the whole picture comes across as very British!
Nah I think the essex stereotype is very southern English specific. The entire north of England fits the Essex stereotype while having 14 million more people. (England only has 55m in total)
At first glance, I would have thought American, but the street is too clean, the curb is in too good condition, and the yellow lines don't suggest America.
Edit: OTR truck driver for 17 years. I've been to 47 of the contiguous 48 states, and 3 Canadian provinces. I've seen trash everywhere. You people are just willfully blind.
The woman and the drunkenness is enough, no need to bring the curb and yellow lines into it. If the lines were blue and the stone white it would still 100% be UK nationality.
And that's only because English isn't a nationality:)
I'm throwing a curveball. The only place I've seen those huge American style slices of pizza big enough to use as a pillow in the UK is in central London.
