All Stereotypes come from Somewhere

Tea drinkers.

Biscuits and/or cake.

Jam and Jerusalem.

Horrible dental work.

The Queen on everything.

Polite and unwilling to cause confrontations

Extremely (if not overly) well spoken.

There are a lot of stereotypes about British people in the international community but the following conversation is only explicitly refers to one of them.

Can you guess which one it is?

I was on my way to the race track, in my sports gear and merrily swinging my drinks bottle. I think the Script was playing. It was a gorgeous day (or I wouldn't have been on my way to the race track).
 On my way down, I come across a gang group of girls on the walking path. I sighed, because they looked a bit...well. One of them approached me.

Girl: 'Scuse me, have you got any cigarettes on you?
Me: *sighs again* No, I'm afraid I don't.
Girl: You sure?
Me: I don't smoke.
Girl: 'Course you do, you've got yellow teeth!

...¬_¬'
At that, I started putting my ear phones back in and turned away from her.

Girl: Can I have a drink out of your bottle?
Me: O_O *Stonily* No.

In my defence, I like to think I took the high road.
