Not in every country, I'm afraid. Ridiculous working hours and low wages in Spain.

Can confirm. I have full healthcare and it's paid for automatically via the taxes I pay every paycheck. I never have to make a claim or argue with an insurance representative about coverage. I just go to the doctor/hospital/pharmacy and get what I need. Don't tell me the richest country in ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY cannot afford it too.

A ban on high fructose corn syrup does wonders for both the food and health of your citizens!

We in Europe have mixed cities with businesses and housings being closer together, while US cities have more separated areas resulting in longer distances to travel

Cliché.

My uncle's cottage isn't just older than the the U.S.A - it's older than the discovery of America.

Sadly, this is changing. As with everything greed and profit are the king. Many companies are sucking the life out of most jobs in the UK by paying less, demanding more and no longer care about loyalty.

Man the one time I was hospitalised in the US and they sent me my bill by post, I thought it was some kind of statement of costs to the hospital, “actual value of goods supplied,” or some such thing. I made many guesses before realising it was *a BILL I had to PAY*. [Yes, I also did have to call to confirm—and you can imagine how weird that conversation went!]

Seeing that most of these streets were built before cars, that is more likely the reason.

Well, over a thousand years for Oxford....but we won't be too pedantic!😁

Everyone is nor correct. Also, varies significantly by country.

And paternity leave in Germany 🇩🇪

Makes for less cars and more people! Glorious!

Which turn out to be more effective, as they can be heard as twice as far as the US sirens and it's easier to determine their direction as well

And only drinking a cappuccino in the morning.

Conversation is a lost art. It’s so sad. I love to sit around and visit with people.

Weirdly a couple of non-European countries are in the contest.

Wait.... What? You don't have paid time off in the US???

Oxford is so beautiful

I see a castle when I look out of my window

I'm in US - I couldn't live without my electric kettle!

A few of my best days/nights as a teen/young adult were spent with a mix of punks, skaters, goths and uhm "preppies"(?) drinking beer on some not so beautiful plazas. Our inner circle was about 6 people but it felt like half of the youth of said town met there. (imagine ca. 100 14-20 year olds of every subculture partying peaceful and even helping the person collecting the bottles )

On Yeavering bell (a hill in Northumberland) a circular stone wall is in need of repair. It was knocked down - by the Romans.

Roundabouts are quite rare on main roads in the US. I live in Arizona, but after having driven all over in Scotland every day for 3 weeks, I have an appreciation for roundabouts I didn't have before: I rarely had to wait at stoplights. I watched youtube videos about roundabouts before I went and it was very much worthwhile (though it didn't prepare me for the Bannockburn Interchange when I had to reverse direction on the M9 - Edit for those confused by this: By 'reverse direction' I mean I was initially going east on the east-bound side and then I was going west on the west-bound side).

That person would not be visiting his parents because they were 2 hours away. There would have be other reasons, perhaps a toxic relationship with the parents.

What's a restroom? Sounds charming, quiet, comfy chairs...

Some pools it's actually forbidden to wear the larger swimming trunks.

It helps when their homes are build super efficient with insulation.

Ryanair. v underrated. yes there is barely any legroom but you get it cheap and arrive safely

No no, everyone does that

Surely you mean "laughing at Americans"?

I complain about Americans all the time as an American.

I find nothing to complain about americans. They amuse me, they surprise me, they baffle me, but I can't really complain. They're not important to me

We are not complaining....just.... wondering 😂😂

Only because we get so much to complain about.

Not so much Americans as the country. There's actually a place in the USA that claims to be the center of the Universe.

I am American and complain Americans all the time. People are so entitled. And those with money and no manners are the ones that travel all over the world and their actions are boorish and leave a bad impression about Americans. Then they meed me and any if my friends and gives them a better idea of what responsible and polite tourists can be like . . .

Not so much, we have a lot of our own problems.

Because it’s acceptable to be caustic

Join in! Americans complain about each other. Regionalism, statisms, like Californians, New Yorkers, Texans, and Floridians... East v West v Deep South.

Nope I complain about Americans all the time

Only the ones that have no respect for another culture which, well, yes, is most of them who haven't ever left their state...

I met a few on our recent holiday to Ireland. All very nice, affable people.

I've heard more people in Canada complain about Americans than I did in Northern Ireland. Every nation complains about America.

European and US are two totally different cultures, which two totally different opinions about what matters most. Europe is a mix of 48+ totally different countries, most of which can be crossed within a couple of hours. The history of many countries was influenced during the past 4000 years. So understanding each other is important, that is why lessons Geography, politics and languages are included in the curriculum at school. Many Europeans live within 30 min of a border, crossing it in daily live for work, study or shopping, even medical treatment, is no big deal. Going on holiday to a foreign country is quite common, mostly by car. Adapting to a different culture is no big deal. The rules for public safety are very strict everywhere, rules for a healthy living get more and more important. Social security (and the monthly payments) and minimum wages are seen as important and gaining freedom and not as loosing freedom. And all this are advantages a European is missing in the US.

Perhaps a few idiots but inaccurate for hundreds of millions of people.

No, pretty much all of the European countries abolished privileges a long time ago. Only one, the uk, didn’t and is still a caste society with unequal rights, nobility and titles that refer to its empire. (NB: there are other monarchies in Europe but purely symbolic, without aristocrats or remnants from the feudalism).

Italy. Not Europe as such.

There are 44 countries in Europe, with 20 using the Euro.
