Food, language, weekend life, friendship?

>>72089386
Most things besides that we speak the same language. We have been pretty much seperate for 400 years, our cultures have diverged long ago. Its like comparing Spainards to Mexicans.

portions are much larger in the US, and eating out is far cheaper

There isn't too much of a language barrier, but I do remember one time where I went to the supermarket and my mum wanted pic related. She couldn't find them so she asked a staff member "Where are the tinned tomatoes?". The staff member gave her a blank look. My mum said "tinned tomatoes" again and the staff member said "sorry ma'am we don't sell Tin here, you would need to go to Home Depot or somewhere like that." My mum finally gave in and said "Canned Tomatoes" in an American accent and she got directed to them

weekend life is similar I guess

I felt like it was easier to make friends over there because everyone is so friendly, but it takes longer to become really close friends

It's in a tin.

>>72089843
Your clerk was an idiot. That's like not knowing that "loo" means bathroom.

Also, Yann?
>>
>>72089843
The process is called canning. Jars or tins used in canning are called cans. The tomatoes were not tinned, tinning is the process of applying tin to iron so that it doesn't rust. The tomatoes were canned, and preserved for longer shelf life.

What is the most positive thing about each country in comparison to the other, in your opinion?

>>72089843
American niggers vs "british" niggers, weather, working, humor.

Brits are faggot Muslims, Americans are fat spiks.

>>72090345
Brit houses are shit though
Everyone in NZ dreams of living in the classic American house

>>72089386
I spent a little time in England, so I'll just unload a few thoughts

In England, and many parts of urban Europe, many cities were laid out prior to the automobile so roads are much more narrow as they were not originally meant to accommodate cars.

As far as the culture, it's very similar. The differences are often blown way out of proportion by people who have not been to either the UK or the US. Other than minor language deviations, it's pretty much the same culture.

What was the best/worst thing in america (from british perspective)?
>>
>>72090337
there are good niggers and "niggers, and bad "niggers" and niggers

US weather is better because it's so varied. Want to live in a super hot and dry place? Go to Arizona.
Want a few feet of snow over winter? Idaho is the place to go.
Want to sweat your balls off in 110% humidity? Louisiana is where you should be.

For working I can't really say because I moved back to the UK before I got an opportunity to work. When I've talked to my dad in the past about it he's said it's pretty much the same.

I prefer British humour because not only is it self-degrading, but it's darker too. That's not to say American humour is bad though.

Best thing?
Compared to where I live now, the variety of food, the quality of food for the price, and the amount of food you get for the price.

Worst thing? I know it sounds weird, but how friendly people are. It can sometimes just get a bit too much. Like >>72090605 said, Brits tend to be more reserved than Americans so it can be quite overwhelming. Honestly it isn't that bad though.
