Soccer vs football and color vs colour.

By and large, UK people don't care about "soccer" (it is in fact a British term, distinguishing between association football ("soccer") and rugby football ("rugger"), but it just fell out of use in Britain while handegg means it became standard in NA). As far as spellings go, they'll use the British spelling, but most don't care if other regions use the American ones. By contrast, this topic is full of Americans insisting that the British English variants for common terms are wrong.
