    Americans are so soft. You throw shade at the Europeans by making fun of their food or wine or streets or whatever. They take a shot back and you guys whine.

    Take a shot back instead of flipping the table.

      You say that as if Americans aren’t prepared to take your invitation literally

      As an American I don’t know what you’re talking about, aside from the UK most of Europe has amazing food, and the wine there is so much better and cheaper

        And the streets are better too?? IDK what OP is on. Like everyone talks about how European streets are more walkable, bikable and whatnot

        Fight me and my bad dentistry you overweight, stetson wearing, language butchering, gun touting redneck.

        The UK has a Michelin star restaurant for every 360k people, the US has one for every 1.5million people.

          It’s probably better to look at the distribution of Michelin stars in major city centers since you guys are only about 20% the size of our population (edit: and about 25% of our land area).

          For instance:

          Population of London = 8.982 million Amount of Michelin stars in London = 71 Amount of people per star = 126,507

          Population of New York City = 8.468 million Amount of Michelin stars in NYC = 72 Amount of people per star = 117,611

      Americans: “Your accent is funny and your food is bland.”
      Europeans: “Well at least children aren’t dying in our schools. At least we don’t see street memorials on television every other week. Haha, owned.”
      Americans: “…”
      Europeans: “See it’s funny because people are dying and voters are powerless to stop it”
      Americans: “What the hell man”
      Europeans: “Wow, you guys should seriously get some thicker skin”

        You are not powerless to stop it. Who is telling you this and why do you believe it? Your group is much, much bigger than the one who fucks everything up. Go out and show them! Nobody is telling you to get thicker skin, they’re telling you to get off your ass and get angry about it.

          Nobody apart from the guy I’m replying to, of course.

          And everyone who downvoted my comment.

          And for the record we’ve been voting. We’ve been protesting. We’ve been trying to get the rules changed and we’re getting stonewalled by the 50% of the population who only listen to media that makes up reasons for them to hate things that would be good for the masses because it would be bad for a few people at the top and I’m sick to fucking death of people making fun of us for not trying hard enough and treating actual dying children as some sort of own.

      You can’t even prove that’s true about a majority of Americans yet you talk about it like it’s fact

      Also I like how you equate memes on bad food/wine/infrastructure to the memes of school shootings and mass death. Totally tit for tat right?
