An American vlogger living in London has admitted to adopting three British habits that initially 'gave him the ick'. K Jordy, who moved from the US to Bristol before settling in the capital, shared his transformation in a TikTok video that has amused viewers.
First on his list was the British practice of adding kisses or 'x' at the end of text messages. 'I didn't really think there was a point of doing it, but then I started doing it, I start realising it just eases the text,' he explained, adding 'British maths, innit.'
Next, he confessed to picking up the 'tight lip half smile' that Brits often give strangers when passing by. 'I vowed not to do it, but now I walk down the street and I see someone, it just creeps out,' he said, demonstrating the expression.
Finally, he lamented that 'the weather has become my personality'. He noted that when it reached 18 degrees in London, people wore t-shirts and were cheerful, but returned to normal when the weather changed. 'When the weather's that influential, you almost have to talk about it,' he concluded.
