In England please respect the queue. Jumping the queue will bring forth a seething rage and putrid hatred that spews forth tutting and a passive aggressive muttering rant that's loud enough for others, but not you, to hear "Oh no you go ahead mate, I'll just stand back here with everyone else, good job I didn't have anything on at all...." The queue is so deeply entrenched in the psyche of the nation that during the 2011 England riots that lasted a week, during which the social fabric broke down, looters could be seen to queue outside the shops they were robbing. Please respect the queue!

Stop asking how to catch a leprechaun. It's trafficking, and they are a protected species under EU law.

30 Lies About America That People Are Honestly Sick Of Hearing

Oh, holy s**t, there is so much wrong in this post I can't even! Where does this poster think all those travelling people come from who immigrate to the US? Europe (continent) had folks roaming about before the US as a state even existed! I'm just completely baffled that someone would say this.

30 Lies About America That People Are Honestly Sick Of Hearing

To me "well travelled" means having been to different countries and experienced different cultures, languages, cuisines etc. "Well travelled" doesn't mean "covered a lot of miles". I can do that just going around the block a couple thousand times

36 Things From The Recent Past That The Younger Generations Get Completely Wrong

The problem today is with the extremely skewed distribution of wealth. They do not complain about working 40 hour weeks. They complain about not being able to make ends meet DESPITE working 40 hour weeks, and sometimes more than one job, while the people further up the chain are getting huge bonuses and living in mansions. As for the cost of health care - from what i read online, it most definitely is an abomination in some places where even essential things like insulin or chemotherapy cost thousands per month when they available free in other countries (free as in part of a national health care system). In any case "we've had it worse, so it's ok for you to suffer as well" is hardly a valid argument (and i'm definitely not in the "young people" demographic any more) :)

Maho Beach in Sint Maarten. I specifically want to go because of the airplanes that land right next to the beach, they literally right above your head. I have a fascination with airplanes so this would just be amazing to me. I'm hoping to go for my 40th birthday next year.

I'd love to see The Rosetta Stone again. When I saw it, I had just read about it in school, and was incredibly excited to see it. I stood in amazement and stared, considering the Stone's history. I'd also like to go back to Windsor Castle. It was the first castle I'd ever seen, and I would've loved more time to see Queen Anne's Dollhouse. I remember being utterly enchanted by the miniature books!

Tbh, I want to see it all, but many of the places I want to visit aren't going to be practical in the near future (e.g. Iran, much of central Africa).

"BTW, the average waitress/waiter in the U.S. makes about $24,000 per year. The average waiter/waitress in Europe is about $27,000 euros". Might I ask where you got that data from?

Umm, not true. I've lived in Amsterdam for 12 years. Very recently they starting imposing fines if you're caught smoking in the area in and surrounding the De Wallen (Red Light district and that neighbourhood). I live in west Centrum (Jordaan etc) and I smoke in public as do many people.- go to any park and it's full of people smoking and drinking (in the summer!).

I hope you never had plans to retire to the warmer climes of Europe because that ain't happening now sunshine!

Clearly he's not in very deep water and in any risk of drowning. If your bow and stern are still above water then you've not sunk! This guy knows exactly what he is doing and working hard at it. He's clearly brought on ballast with that plastic liquid container. That additional weight at the back of the boat is keeping it level so he can bail it out. Bloody great boatmanship.
