Dear Fandom:

Please stop having characters who are blue collar Americans in canon use British English words and phrases.  

 
Fringe is not an American usage for bangs.  
Americans use wrenches, not spanners.
Generally we use cellphones rather than mobiles, and men don't wear Y-fronts. (Well, they might, but they call them something else.)
BrE and AmE treat "got" and "gotten" differently in the past tense.
 
Unless you are writing an AU, it kills the story.  If you can't get the foundation right, why should I waste time on whatever you're building on top of that?
 
Also, blonde is a feminine adjective; blond(e) is one of the very few adjectives in English that retains a gender variation.  Please to be paying attention.
 
Except, wait, there are also apparently problems understanding the difference between plural and possessive.  
 
Please get a beta.
