Ah ... my fellow Americans making asses of us all. Sorry world, we're not all like these people. But these people seem to speak the loudest ... obnoxiously so.

American measurement = best measurement because american = best. If you disagree, you are a terrorist/communist.

When you have teachers just “teach to the test”—-which generally leads to “test it and forget it” for students—-so the school can get more funding, instead of help kids actually learn, this is what you get. Schools shouldn’t have to sacrifice true education just to be able to afford textbooks or some computers. The lack of adequate and consistent funding for public education is the crux of the issue.

so many american think they are the center of the world!

You can count the number of countries still using imperial on the fingers of one hand!

Everybody knows the internet is American.

huh... so internet IS american now, none the less! as you can search on google (like I did) Internet was co-invented by Robert Cailliau (belgian) and Tim Berners-Lee (english) and howewer internet is of nobody, my big mouth dude...

The world wide web is not the internet. The WWW was indeed invented in Europe, but the first internet, ARPAnet, was actually invented by the US government

Depending on your own definition of telecom, the internet was begun in the states, in England and in France. And the worst part is that because it comes from so many beginnings there's no... definite, absolute start of it. More than one person conceived an idea with communicating from point a to point b via radio and wire. Who do you want to credit? The first satellite transmission? The first phone call? The first radio transmission? How about morse code? I assume the American above was referring to ARPNET.... but there was also MILNET.... so whatever.

Actually the internet was developed by arpanet...later darpa. Venton Cerf developed tcp\ip protocol and is considered to be the father of the internet and is an American.

✝️ Jesus was American.🇺🇲 IT'S A FACT. (My pastor told me so, right before healed the sick and pulled the snakes out of the cage.)

regardless of where it was where it was developed, WORLD wide web.

And, in case that isn't proof enough, America elected politicians to Congress and the White House who care not a hoot about the welfare of their constituents over the thickness of their bank accounts.

The best measurements... While everybody tells you to use metric when it comes to being precise... I can't believe that people really don't WANT to learn

The poster should have explained that Cern is in Switzerland, which is in Europe, because he will never have heard of Cern. Or Switzerland. He may have heard of Europe, but it's not a certainty.

Wow. You are so f*cking dumb... you’re (the best) at it.. I love it.

They cited CERN as though that dummy would know what that is. :'D

Hahahah!

some of us americans are insane. i am ashamed of this country

Ah. Once again another bash America segment of Bored Panda. How original. Yawn.

I wouldn't call the american measuring system "the best" since the USA are literally one of the only countries in the whole world using it and most other countries are metric

The last 5 years has shown me that about half of USA "adults" are stupid as hell. Look who they made prez: a conman grifter with no morals or ethics, and then almost half tried to reelect him!

and folks wonder why I have this place... Arrogance and Ignorance are worn like a freaking Medal of Honor

Wheels magazine is a fantastic publication.

Since when is the internet "American"?!?!?!? Wow.

Good lord, what absolute bell ends. I weep for humanity.

This shows how ignorant America is.

bruh

Oof

American (the best) - LOL, that's brilliant

There's no such things called mile, it's just weird arbitrary name for 1.609 Km

The internet was invented by a Brit!
