I have never in all my life living in Britian heard someone say cheerio. Except maybe ironically to mock the sterotype. If they genuinely did say it, the word 'wanker' that we actually do use would come in handy

PSA for Americans: Cheerio means GOODBYE and in my 45 years of living in England I’ve only known 1 person who said it regularly. Also Bugger means to forcefully sodomise, try to remember that when you use it at inappropriate junctures. Also Wanker is a relatively harsh insult, some of my countrymen might not take it with good cheer.
I like taking obsolete expressions (to my understanding "cheerio" is the only expression here that qualifies as obsolete) and seeing if I can make them sound natural. For years, I've been saying "How do you do?" when I meet people; no one ever bats an eye. It's all in the delivery.
PSA for non-Americans: All of the Americans you've just seen are morons and not wholly representative of our individual intelligence or cultural sensitivity... though they do represent the average quite well.

I beg to disagree. I'm a former Pom, now Australian. I went back to visit family when the soccer world cup was on in Germany. In England there were St. George flags everywhere on everything. Growing up there I'd never seen the Union Jack dismantled so jingoistically before. It made me queasy. I hate that kind of rabid American style patriotism.
These people sound like they've never heard a British person speak in their lives and someone told them "is fine - just talk weird." I guess not everybody grew up binging Monty Python like me and my family.

As a Brit, it always amuses me to see Americans attempting ‘a British accent’ (as if there’s just one, and their entire knowledge of it was learned from Mary Poppins). I do have to wonder why it’s ok for American newscasters to attempt a British (or Irish on St. Patrick’s day) accent, but if they were to attempt, say, a Chinese accent they’d get raked over the coals for being racially insensitive.
