Are any other people like me and hate the way we in the UK have adopted the american way of speaking. I mean I had never heard the phrase I "snuck" up on someone or that "snuck" in" Whatever happened to sneaked. Also why do the youth of today have to say "Oh my God" at nearly every sentence they utter. I honestly believe we have become a nation of braindead imbeciles. Except me of course.

It's interesting to compare American phrases and their British equivalents. For instance, in the US they say, "Knock yourself out" whereas here in the UK, we say "Fill yer boots".
