"you know it's soccer right... it's comes from the term associated footba....."

....Whole pubs beats the living fuck out of your loud obnoxious ass

It's soccer, and it's for little fairy boys. Real football is a man's sport.

So you refer to niggers as men when it comes to sport?

What, spooks don't play soccer?

I was referring more to your racism

Speaking of pubs, your "tied house" horseshit can take a long walk off the White Cliffs, if you'll pardon my language.

Actually never heard of that

We call em' tennis shoes round here

Is that a southern or midwestern thing?

I thought it was southern, but it's most of the U.S.

Woah, I'm surprised, though not surprised by south Florida being in line with the northeast. Still, someone did a masters thesis on this? Somewhere out there is an expert on what Americans call athletic shoes.

I'm in sneaker country, but lived in London as a kid and we called them 'plimsolls'. I wonder if that's still a thing.

You wot, mate? You must be a daft chav, innit. Over 'ere we call 'em foxy boxy leather slips, we do.

Please speak the Queen's English next time you wish to converse or I shant respond to your tom foolery. Now pardon me, gents, but there is a Muslim gentleman who wishes access to me arse!

Anthony Cumia calls high heels "sneakers" because he can wear them around the house without making a sound, and they give a 12 year old girl's ass more definition.

I would also like to add, why do you Yanks call a tap "a faucet." American English is usually more economical and direct than the original (English English.) Faucet is a queer sounding word that should be said by a Hugh Grant type.

If we're talking about queer words then let's not forget that you guys call the "hood" of a car a "bonnet".

Trainers=Sannys

In Bhutan, we call sneakers Ďą Ngā Šhoo

This comment is better than anything I_Hate_Knickers has done during the entire duration of his Asian bit.

I will pay SpaceEdge​ $400 dollars if he lets me become a mod so I can ban every British poster.

I like having a fag in my mouth. Ahahahaha!

You're actually correct. The rubber sole of sneakers make it possible to sneak up on someone because of how soft they are.

In 1917, he used the term because the rubber sole made the shoe stealthy. The word was already in use at least as early as 1887, as the Boston Journal made reference to "sneakers" as "the name boys give to tennis shoes." The name "sneakers" originally referred to how quiet the rubber soles were on the ground, in contrast to noisy standard hard leather sole dress shoes. Someone wearing sneakers could "sneak up" on someone while someone wearing standards could not.[5]
Earlier the name "sneaks" had been used by prison inmates to refer to warders because of the rubber-soled shoes they wore.[6]
