I thought it was funny, mostly because of the animated gifs they used :)

One of those silly lists...
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

This was the only funny one:

9. "There's a rail replacement bus service."

:weep:
" SIR – I must commend you on some of your recent obituaries. I was delighted to read of the deaths of Foday Sankoh (August 9th), and Uday and Qusay Hussein (July 26th). Do you take requests? "

The worst thing a Torontonian could ever hear ... a weather report from pretty well anywhere else.  :cry:

Sometimes, Buzzfeed just shouldn't post anything at all.

It's horrible, no matter where you are.

The night bus thing also applies to Vienna. Fortunately, the subways are going 24 hours on weekends now.

It's nice to know our misery is making others happy.  :D

I'm so sick of modern British pop culture talking about this Nandos thing so much. It only really appeared since I moved abroad so I've never had it.

11 betrays that this speaks of Londoners, not Brits in general. I'd have killed for a night bus when I lived in the UK.

This list is meh

The two actual worst things to tell a British person on the internet:

1. 'Here is a Youtube video of me speaking with a British accent.  Totally authentic right?'

2. 'You know something really great about the UK?  Well let me tell you...'

14, 3 and 21 are also true. On the other hand I've literally never heard anyone say 21.

They don't say 'soft drink' in Britain?  What do they say?  Maybe we should find one of those soda maps.

Half of them seem related to how much Brits like their booze. They don't even drink that much.
