This “joke” has been co-opted by xenophobic conservative Americans so often that I really struggle to appreciate it, even when you use it rather innocently like here. I’m not even a Brit and have grown quite tired of it. It comes from the same bag as cheese eating surrender monkeys for the French.

Look, they get to make fun of us for our shootings, we get to make fun of them for their loicenses for everything. It’s a fair trade.
That’s actually xenophobic because the French kick ass when they feel like it. Hell, they’re basically the only reason America won independence.

I’m all for friendly ribbing, just a bit tired of this particular one because I saw it used in unsavoury ways too many times. Just spreading a bit of awareness about it, I could tell you weren’t being mean or actually using this as a xenophobic argument, but others before you have.
