THE BOOK OF BLOODY
BRITS
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF THE WHITE MAN’S BURDEN
The Brits try being above it all
Chapter 50
After hWorld War I, the Brits got idepressed,
2jHaving discovered that the Unites States was now bigger and richer than the Brit Empire,
3kFor some reason.
4Since it was clear that the Americans ldidn’t believe in doing things the hard way, the Brits began to think that maybe they needed a new way themselves.
5mAfter all, the Brits had fought nWorld War I the hard way,
6And had millions and millions of dead to show for it,
7oWhereas the Americans spent most of the war being above it all,
8pThen danced in at the end and lost no more than a few thousand troops,
9qTops.
10And so the Brits tried being rabove it all for a few years,
11Reducing the size of the navy,
12And the army,
13And ignoring most of what was happening everywhere else,
14sIncluding Germany,
15Except for one antiquated Brit named tWinston Churchill,
16uWho still believed in doing things the hard way,
17vAnd who was the only one who noticed when the Germans started rebuilding their military,
18wIn a big way.
19xBut most of the Brits were really enjoying being above it all,
20And thought Churchill was just having fun,
21The hard way,
22Which was yamusing, of course,
23But nothing to get alarmed about.
