UK Factoid of the Day

Instead of asking if they can "pet" your dog, children in England ask if they can "stroke" it.

I want to get a dog only because of the endless humour I would find in having children run up to me and say "Excuse me, may I please stroke your dog" (insert adorabe british-child accent here). The 13-year-old boy in me thinks that this is very funny.
