I used to worry about us over here in the UK being judged badly over Brexit, but you guys have, er, trumped us. This is fun to watch from 5000 miles away, but I'd hate to be there.

I used to have a Swedish running partner (doing postdoc in California). We'd argue about who had the 'least well-informed' voters (not the specific word we used). He claimed Sweden, I claimed US. He was disabusing me of the impression that all Swedes were knowledgable and cosmopolitan. Ongoing friendly argument -- until McCain picked Palin as his VP candidate. I sent him a text: 'I win.'
