I remember showing an American who was over on a training course proper beer, Budweiser compared to Bud caused a "Oh, so it's made by the family who emigrated, that makes so much sense" another went along the spirits shelf of a local trying all the Whiskeys they had...didn't make next morning...

Quote: Congress and the Senate are disbanded. A questionnaire circulated next year will determine whether any of you noticed.
That's something we should try all over the world...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Maybe they did and nobody noticed?

I though you guys would be big fans of them.
The House and Senate like pork.
You like bacon.
Kith and Kin if ever there were any.

So - as best as I can discern (and that's impeccably accurate at all times), you guys haven't even started leaving the EU and already are try to create a new version.
I'll tell ya' whut: You can rent Mississippi for a while - test drive it for a while - and then decide how wise you commentator realize is.
And we'll keep our 'merican spelling of words, which favor logic and common sense, and you can continue with your adoptions of French spellings and pronunciations.
Note to self: suggest that before they 'build a wall' they should widen the Atlantic.

You picked the wrong language for that. The Chinese are as satirical/sarcastic as the English.
(Which is probably why US-ians can't understand them, either)

I would say even more... it is very bad considered to show anger or that you are pissed off in asiatic lands. So they tell you all with a smile in the face but shooting you or stabbing you in their look.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I read that yesterday, and although I'm a longtime fan of Cleese and Python, I thought it was unfunny, childish, off point and certainly not helpful to the discussion. Just a series of old Yank jokes rehashed in the context of a serious international event. Not impressed.

It was that same British arrogance that made the smart ones leave in the first place.

Of course. That is what I said. Everyone in the US is smart.  You are unintentionally proving my point, I suppose.

I don't know if it was your intention to prove that US-ians can't read, but you appear to have achieved it, anyway.
