Is this site British?

Is 64Digits a British website? I see that the favorite in favorite users, or favorite games is spelled favourite. That seems very British. Not that I have any problems with Britain, I listen the BBC World Service every night and watch Monty Python and Benny Hill. And I speak English. Another britishsism on the site is the use of the word "Queue," as in, "View Queue." In America, we usually use the word "line." Britain also made the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, Jethro Tull, Led Zepplin, Queen, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and most importantly, Spinal Tap.

Blimy Guv'nah, that's a lot of good music!

Canadian… it's worse than I feared. Have any of you seen that movie Canadian Bacon with John Candy?

Just cuz' he's called Canadonian doesn't mean he's Canadian. If I used Frenchy-McFrenchstien as a name, I wouldn't necesarily be French. I knew a girl back in high school who wore a shirt with the word "Canadia" on it, but she was in no way Canadian.

And yeah, Aqualung kicks total ass. So does Locomotive Breath. The piano playing guy who calls himself Aqualung and tries to play music is not worthy of the name.

I would use queue as well, and I am also American. Gonna have to draw the line at "favourite" though.

I bought the Aqualung CD, it's great. It's some remastered one or something as well. Locomotive breath rules
