I've seen that video, and I have to say that as funny as it is, it is a stupid fucking video. "Holding the fort" makes no more literal sense than "holding down the fort" does. None. But you all know what it means, so you can stop being pedantic cunts about it. Partly because I've heard the ridiculous rapings that the British like to call "English", but I'm not a big enough douchebag to call you out on them.

It's not meant to be literal, it's a metaphor. A straightforward one that actually makes sense.
But believe me, this thing is not always directed outward toward American English. There's plenty of fun made inwardly too. Especially with the north.
