Mhm! Exactly!

Yeah, that also bothered me as well

This weirds me out every time

Religion should have no room in politics anywhere. (But for positive values such as grace of charity.)

that's just SAD , very , very SAD

Anything about the so-called American health system is a mystery to the rest of the world.

Not only to Brits!

What an awful soulless place. And I'm guessing the only reason they give them what looks like expensive chairs is so they don't get sued for workplace injury.

Are greeters real? I thought the Simpson's was exaggerating. I guess in a country so massive, you gta find a way to stand out? Still seems weird tho

This varies in the US too. In most cities it's normal not to have a car, but not in places where most people don't live within walking distance to anything.

not in the US.....

Americans love a good discount too.

We're not the only ones doing that. No one seems to blink at the audacity of the Miss Universe beauty contest, where Earth seems to win every time.

In the UK, a durex is (or used to be) a condom. In Australia, it's sticky tape. Best not to get them confused.

Again, horrifying everywhere in the world

This is horrifying for the rest of the world not just the UK!!

I would have been too!

Respect the queue! This should be everywhere!

It is not acceptable to cut the line. People who do that are assholes.

They may have a fast pass for that ride at Disney World. Otherwise yes, queue up like a civilised human being.

Queing is like our national sport i can confirm lol

The only reason I can imagine this happening is if they have a FAST Pass which you can pay extra to get. Just because you see something happening once or twice in a given country doesn't mean it's "normal" to do so. People don't just randomly go around jumping in lines h America or anywhere else, no one would tolerate that.

I must've been British in a former life. I agree. Respect the queue!

American here. I have been known to yank line cutters out of line by their hair. NOT tolerated in my queue, bitch!

Yeah, fark those kids with disabilities and cancer. They can wait just like everyone else.

Come visit Iowa! That's what they do here too. The state Fair is in August, and has some of the finest and longest queues (that's lines for y'all Midwesterners) that this continent has to offer. At the fair you can enjoy real time s**t like deep fried butter on a stick, seriously. And you get to queue up for it. There is no limit to how long you queue up, not limits to it's distal length. And because this nation is free, you may actually form a queue at a brick wall if you wish, no length or time limits, just jump right in there and queue up. Freestyle queuing is encouraged here, because lines don't necessarily have to be straight. But yes, Iowans love to stand in a f*****g line. Once a year they actually miss work to queue up and receive $10 worth of free pork. Again. They miss work to stand in a half mile line, to receive free meat that is less in value than the hours they could have put in and earned considerably more than the value of a piece of freezer-burned meat. Help me.

I live here and Disney is one of the only places I've seen this happen. I think the heat melts their brains. Obviously the writer has not traveled to a lot of other countries. China we were told to smash ourselves into the people in front of us. Otherwise people would push themselves into the line. It was true! They physically jam their body into any gap in the line. It's the weirdest thing. I just couldn't crush myself against a stranger until a line jumper smashed herself against me.

I've never seen this in the USA. The only time is when when they were waiting for a family member to come because maybe they were in the restroom.

Nobody likes a line cutter.

I don't believe in lines .

Are they saying it should be called the Queue.K. ?

*sigh* They do it in person, and they do it even MORE while driving, in America. No, dude, cutting in front of a long line of cars does NOT make you smart, it makes you an asshole. It also makes everyone you just cut off hope you die a slow painful death.

I've read that americans (in their perpetual and overdeveloped sense of "fairness") are the ones that are first to get upset at line cutters, and the rest of the world takes it in stride. not so?

You have to remember, many of us are armed.

On the tube, there's absolutely no reason to "hold the door". The next one will be in in a few minutes, and you will just be a little late. By holding, everyone on the train will be late, and there is actually a possibility that it travels down the line, delaying several trains.

That would be weird.

"supersize me"

What's particularly wrong with day drinking? I mean, night won't reduce your drunkenness

This happens in the UK too. I am a woman and I traveled by train with a suitcase too heavy for me to lift and always some lovely man immediately assisted me with getting on and off.

That's horrifying!

To me, this sounds like a good style. How would you address a stranger in the UK?

I fear this one may be culturally appropriated - I'm in the UK and have worked for people who have done this, and been "encouraged" to do this myself. I have offered once (but that was because it was a big, serious project, and my time off was looking after the MIL's house for two days and I was BORED!)

What else should we do with all this corn we grow? Feed the world? Bio-fuel these machines? Nope. Lets make something like sugar, but way worse for you.

Aussie, aussie, aussie, oi oi oi.

While talking about american cinemas, why don't they have seat reservation? In Sweden, we book in advance, choosing our seats by how many we are, where the screen is and availability.
