These tweets will only fully make sense to our British audience, but we're willing to bet non-Brits will get a confused kick out of them too. If you're not sure what "limeys" means, it's a slang term for the British that originated in the 1850s in reference to the British sailors who would consume citrus fruits to prevent scurvy. The more you know!

All you Top Gear fans will appreciate this meme that features TV show host Jeremy Clarkson uttering the sentence, "Sometimes my genius... it's almost frightening." This meme stems from all the way back in a 2013 episode, and we think it's also great for the dummies who also think they're real clever.

People will go to great lengths to find love and this guy, whose name is Mark, has to be the most dedicated we've seen. Mark created a website asking for dating applicants, citing the difficulty of finding love at age 30. We feel that. He even went as far as to pay for a billboard to be put up in Manchester, UK.
Mark, if you're reading this, then we hope you find your special someone. You deserve it.
And ladies, if you're actually interested in going on a date with Mark (which honestly you should be), you can apply to be Mark's ladyfriend here. Good luck, because he's got a lot of applicants to sift through.
Doctor Who certainly has a cult-like following by this point, and it's not hard to see why. The show is supposedly meant for children, which leads us to believe that English children are just far superior in the intelligence department than the rest of us.
Who's your favorite Doctor? Ours has got to be David Tenant.
Ah, high school. Back when we'd sit in AP English class and listen to the teacher go on about the supposed symbolism in classic works of literature for what felt like hours. Lo and behold, it's entirely possible that some writers just want to write a damn sentence that doesn't contain some sort of brilliant imagery.
All the way back in 2013, a Tumblr user pointed out the line "What, you egg?" in Shakespeare's MacBeth. Was Shakespeare trying to convey some sort of secret meaning here? It's possible, but it's more likely he just wanted to throw in a silly insult.
Let's be real people, the English language is hard...like, really hard. And completely nonsensical at times even for us native speakers. So we can kind of understand when people f*ck things up, like the following embarrassed people!
Learning a language is hard enough as is without factoring in all of the colloquialisms that aren't natural for a non-native speaker. The following posts make fun of translations from English into other languages, but let's not forget how ridiculous English is; you gotta admit that "frog's umbrella" makes a lot more sense than "mushroom"...
Learning the quirks of most languages can be frustrating, but English really seems to take the cake. These anecdotes from people who are sick and tired of its illogical nature really highlight how wild the language really is. We really do salute anyone who manages to master it as a second (or third, or fourth) tongue.
Is there a more quotable movie than Monty Python and the Holy Grail? Well aside from Airplane, we think not.
Movies often times become dated and irrelevant throughout the years, but Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one that will likely be hilarious for generations to come.
If this gallery inspires you to watch the movie again, then our work here is done.
We'd really like to take this time to recognize all the bilinguals, polyglots and people who are just trying to learn another language. Anyone who's studied a foreign language knows that it's extremely frustrating, to say the least - especially when you think you know a lot and then get totally destroyed by a native speaker! It's humbling as hell, but just keep pushing through. You got this!
