#BBCtrending: What baffles the world about the British?
What baffles you about the British?
Rather a lot, it seems, if the thousands of comments on a reddit thread, external are anything to go by.
Tired of all the discussion threads poking fun at his compatriots, an American user said he wanted to turn the tables for once: "Non-British people of Reddit, what about Britain is stupid/baffles you?" he asked. The question drew more than 25,000 comments in less than a week - from people of many different nationalities, not least the British themselves.
