Common Things Different in Europe vs. the United States
Manage episode 479705751 series 2062795
Ah America, filled with gun toting rednecks wearing their flag as a t-shirt and pondering what Jesus would do while chowing down on Mexican food, greasy burgers, partially hydrogenated corn syrup cubes, and washing it all down with Budweiser, the king of beers… for those who’ve never tasted real beer… And Europe, full of a homogeneous group of people who spend most of their time measuring things in meters instead of Ariana Grandes as every god-fearing individual should, whilst worshiping the British monarchy, rioting about football, mocking Americans and their inferior chocolates and cheeses, and otherwise bent on making sure the entire world becomes socialist… Or, at least, so the interwebs have taught us all. But what are the actual interesting differences between people and things in the surprisingly diverse United States compared with the various individuals in the vastly more diverse countries of Europe? Well, I'm glad you asked, because that's what Simon and I are going to cover today. Let’s dive into it all, shall we?
