My mom realized her passport expired... in the airport. They gave her an extention until she returned to our country. Took them 40 minutes.

I've lived in Japan my whole life and not once have i seen or heard of this.

neither can they comprehend cramming the cars so full that station workers have to push people at the doors inside, so the doors can close.

lol Apparently you've never been to rural America. I guess the European mind can't understand that most of the US is farmland and small agricultural towns. And this kind of thing is common. When I lived in NV the freeway would come to a halt to let cattle pass. Same with mules and wild horses. Yes, wild horses.

Eff this! I'm running away to Norway.

I hate this so much! I know it is for the nature,but damn when you need to drink water at night and the only thing that gets water is my nose and some scrathes added.And don't even mention screwing it back half asleep. Effing struggle.

My UK mind can't comprehend this either. Attached bottle caps have been in thing in the UK for a few months now and they are a PITA. Drinks companies have decided after more than 40 years that we can no longer be trusted to recycle our bottle caps along with the rest of the bottle.

These really annoyed me when they were first introduced but I don't mind them now. The lid can usually be pushed right back so it's parallel to the top and out of the way. They can be annoying to close though, sometimes it takes a few tries to get it right.

I guess I'm one of the few people who are not bothered by it at all. On the contrary, I like that I don't need to hold the cap in the hand while drinking. On the other side, I don't drink from these kind of bottles everday so maybe I just don't have the chance to learn to hate it lol

Small tips : You need to hold the cap between your middle finger and your ring finger.

Poor you!! Some people have to walk miles for water. In fact, more than half of the world’s population live on less than $2.00 US per day. But yeah - poor you with your lid problems!! 😢

I just cut it off

All caps are detachable in my house. I *make* them detachable. And yes, we recycle the cap with the bottle, so perhaps this whole thing wasn't as necessary after all.

Umm... we have this here?

I've actually found some bottle tops in the US that are very similar. The cap will not separate due to one thickened space on the ring. I use scissors or an exacto to cure that issue.

I don't get it.

The American mind can't comprehend why you'd do something so stupid.

ugh!

I hate these, I twist them until they come off, use them as normal

Ah, the good old Aussie reverse tipping taxis: "The fee is $20.23. Tell you what, mate, just make it $20." Alas, a dying breed in the cashless economy.

No thank you

Everything except the blood sausage

But we would like to...except, of course, for when we want/need something from a business that's close for the "summer holiday", however long that is. "Where I work should be closed for a few weeks/months, but I need all other businesses to be open for my convenience." How does that work, anyway? I mean, surely you can't close all of the grocery stores/markets for a week at the same time... I would think any business that can close for an extended period of time can't be any kind of necessity to society.

Weren’t they the ones who started this?

Anything older than 200 year baffles us. Imagine living in a cottage that was built in the 12'th century lol

Am I the only person finding this thread incredibly confusing? 🫤 I can’t see anything incomprehensible in any of the pictures so far

neither can the minds of almost every other country where bagged milk isn´t a thing. like my german mind.

I'm glad we can't.

What, ? Bad photography ?

What is a fire lane ?

hold on my Australian mind can't comprehend it either... 😭

Pew pew poo

Sigh... too many Americans can't comprehend having an election.

Of course we can, we put it in a bun and ironically call it a sandwich.

Yup, you're right. I can't wrap my head around being without AC in the hot months. Just can't live like that.

That's not the French version of Subway, but at the same time America is aware that Subway is a trash sandwich, which I guess Euroland is not?

Because nobody in the US cares about illegal EU content maybe?

Um...we have Smart cars in the U.S.

Probably because most Americans don't watch the euros, some do, but it's not as popular here.

They have these all over San Francisco.

And yet, strangely enough, you can find a copy of this in Williamsburg, VA. And Saem, Massa. And Wright's Landing. The La issue in Chicago. Yep, Americans are baffled

I live in Queensland, and most of the time _I_ can't understand it (especially the bl**dy tackling rules).
