Got talking to the Hakka guy in the coffee shop across the road from our home. He said he'd guessed I was British because a) I'm not tall, and b) I seem cultured, whereas (I'm just reporting what he said... this is not an endorsement of his view) Americans are a) tall and b) uncultured.

Translation: "You are stumpy and bookish. I'm guessing that makes you British."

@willbuckingham Also the Brits say 'sorry' instead of 'hi!'
