This reminded me of living in London and a set of rude (to any sensible chap familiar with the ways of the public house) behaviours that I became unfortunately used to.
In short, London g*ths were a shower of bastards who never seemed to understand the concept of 'getting a round in'. I'm sure some of them thought it was dreadful working-person's football behaviour and was beneath them. It sure as hell never stopped them drinking the beer they were bought, the grasping little shits.
Thankfully I can't name names (Why should I let people like that stay in my head?) and as far as I can tell, none of the buggers made it to LJ.
However, it's nice to be reminded of something so one can get it off one's chest and move on.

And that question is familiar in the West, too.
