As a Brit on the internet, I’m aware of a few stereotypes that follow British culture — and how hard I personally lean into those tickboxes. We like tea (peach only for me, but I digress), it rains non-stop (well, yes, but I quite like it), and we do have a fondness for Wallace and Gromit (understatement of the year).
