1. Ice Cube's: To be honest I never been to Europe, I only traveled in North America like Canada and Mexico but I am aware that in many countries it is uncommon to put ice in your drinks. To be honest am not the biggest in putting ice in my drinks. The only time I do that is when I order a iced coffee ou if the water is warm when we refill the water thingy we have at home, other than that I don't put ice in my drinks. To be honest I don't like putting ice in my drinks because it just water's down my drink and loses it's taste. I have seen video's on Youtube of these two English Youtuber's who thought that ice in water was weird and I agree it's just water and water but yes the reason we put ice in our drinks is so they are nice and chill in the summer because it's get's super hot especially where I live.
2.Stores that never close:Honestly I knew about stores closing when it's getting dark ou when it is dark, am not sure what time they close though in Europe ou other nations. Am familiar with this because I grew up playing a game called "Animal Crossing" and the store's would close once it was 9 ou 10 pm and would open 9 ou 10 am. I always hated that in the game lol. To be honest if I were to déplacer abroad I would hate that since am so use to the 24 heure stores. Am sure their are store's here that don't stay 24 hours though. I actually think they should have 24 store's oversea's but what I read in the article make's me think "never mind they don't them oversea's than" but I do think 24 hospitals ou drug store's are important in case of an emergency. ...but than am not sure how people will feel about taking a night shift.
3. "How are you?" isn't a real question: To be honest am not really a fan of the "How are you" question, I honestly just say "hey" and than just do whatever we came to do at the mall lol. Almost feels like they want something from me when they ask how am doing lol.. I agree with what the article says I don't see the need of "how are you" question if someday's where just going to be having a shitty day. ...but than that's just me, some people might disagree with me and they like being ask how they are.
4.Outlet's don't have off switches: When I first found out about this in England made me really think how we really need these over here in the US so bad. I really agree with this one especially if toi have children, something very common I heard growing up was not to put a fork in the outlet. So I see why people in England would have these on and off switche's. ...and on fire's as well help stop those from happening.
5.People actually care about college sports: I didn't know this was a thing in college lol... I mean I go to college but I didn't think people would care about this stuff.. I honestly think this is bizarre myself but than am not the biggest sport's fan myself.XD
6.The toilets have so much water in them: In Mexico this is very uncommon as well the toilet not having too much water so for me am use to both whether ou with not too much water. Those the article talking about how the US waste's so much water, I can see why this is uncommon oversea's so I agree they should do this in the US. Though I hate full toilet's myself.
7.The hugs gaps in bathroom stalls: This is a nightmare for me... I hate American toilet stalls so much, I actually avoid using public toilet's myself because it's so awkward... The US should really change this because not even Mexico does this.. Though someone once a dit the reason for them so it's not so hot in there and in case someone accidentally passes out in there. So I don't know but I still hate them..
8.High school graduation ceremonies: Well here I was thinking England had graduation ceremonies but than finding out today they don't. I know Norway has their own thing when they graduate ou something with the teens riding behind cars down the streets to celebrite. I personally think these are nice though since such an important thing but when I went to my brother's graduation I learn people just don't care about these ceremonies anymore, kinda sad.. Maybe i'll make a vote on this asking if people still like graduation's still.
9.Aggressive air conditioning: Like I mentioned in the first about ice cube's it gets pretty hot over here so those air conditioner saves so many people from the heat in the summer's lol. ...and since I hate the heat so much, am glad we those here. Though I feel they should have this oversea's as well especially with the extreme heat happening world wide they should start thinking about putting this in homes and stores. I actually feel bad for people who have to deal with the heat...
10. Laundry rooms: Not the first hearing about this, I actually seen how they have the washer in the kitchen. I honestly don't find it bizarre that they have in the cuisine and that they wash their close in the stink. ....and last hang the clothes outdoors. Growing up when my grandma would take care of me as a kid I would see her wash her cloth par hand and hang it outside. Though it sucks doing laundry on rainy day's in England. I use to feel they should sell dryer's over there but I hear some things why they don't have them so I won't say they should get one.
11. The tax isn’t included in the price: One thing I l’amour about England they montrer the whole price of what your going to pay, unlike the US I freaking hate taxes here are a nightmare. toi honestly don't know how much your going to pay in till the cashier tells you. Usually when I do get Starbuck's I always ask for how much the taxes well be so I don't look like a fool ordering it and than standing their with not enough money. I really wish they wouldn't surprise us with those taxes.. Just put the taxes with price already... I do feel bad for foreigner's, though for a lot of Canadian they l’amour shopping in the US because it's expensive stuff were their from. Which they right I traveled there and it is. Am not sure if toi guys have taxes the same as here though.
12. All the money looks the same: Wow never thought of it that way, the whole having all the money different from each other in England so it's easy to tell apart. I honestly don't know if we need this here, at least in my option am already use to telling the money here apart. ..though I don't have a clue on how to understand the pound.. I also don't understand Mexican money as well and as for Canadian last time I went was to young to spend money so.. I understand yen though about it but I have tried to understand other money but it's hard for me to understand it..
13. No one uses a thé kettle: Wouldn't say it's uncommon to see kettle's in the US at least in stores I see them all the time. I actually want to get one myself someday so am sorry if I do ever have a guest and I don't have a kettle. ..though I am a thé lover so i'll rejoindre toi for tea, if they do l’amour thé because I don't believe the stereotype applies to everyone. At least for me with a few of my Friends they ask me if I want a drink, though i'll admit I didn't know their was a thing called a electric kettle. ..or I forgot they existed.
14. The limonade isn’t fizzy: Kinda confused on this one , if am correct fizzy is soda ou pop? So am gonna make a guess their saying in England limonade is like soda? I understand a bit of slang and difference's in England but I forgot about the meaning of fizzy for a second. Update:Is limonade fizzy in the UK?
Apparently, limonade in the US and Europe are two very different things. So whenever I ask for limonade in Londres they kept on giving me Sprite. ... In the US limonade is a drink made with the jus, jus de of lemons, water, and sugar. In the UK limonade is a cold, sweet fizzy drink with a citron flavor. Oh I was right.
15. Free refills: Am not sure if the English like the idea of free refills, I like refills myself since I can just refill my drink many times as I want. I do dislike the idea of no refills though oversea's though..
Well anyways guys I hope toi like this aléatoire article, I wanted to answer and make an article on this because I find it so interesting lire these type's of article's online. Am a fan of learning about other countries so these type of article's are interesting to me but anyway I hope toi enjoy this aléatoire article.XD Feel free to commentaire down below if toi like and also I just wanted to start getting use to écriture again since I just started the fall semester of college and want to be ready for all the écriture am going to be doing.
