“folks in European countries never self are brushed up against in public, and simply in the usa will you discover “Excuse me” whenever it happens.”
Getting English in NY I was painfully familiar with how often and involuntarily I casually stated “sorry” and “cheers” to people and remaining all of them flummoxed. uploaded by pmcp at Odense women dating 4:41 AM on
You are never ever rushed off a cafe or restaurant or cafe in Europe, because there’s just one “seats” per evening. If manager fulfills his location for that evening, he’s delighted.
It was perhaps not my personal expertise in some dining in France (Paris; Toulouse). This has been my event at some dining in U.S. Whenever my personal journey actually at some ridiculously very early hour, I’m able to create the automobile yourself and simply just take public transit towards the airport (this has become true in San Francisco, and Seattle, Portland OR, Boston and DC – if I’m traveling away from nationwide or BWI, at the least). So – most regional! posted by rtha at 6:25 AM on
Us citizens include socal optimists. They assume all interactions is pleasing until they are certainly not. Brits were personal pessimists. They think all communications will suck until they don’t really.
People in the us need a robustness that Brits do not. I really don’t actually know the reason why however they look a great deal more healthy – possibly simple fact is that United states method of delicacies enrichment and variety of sunshine. posted by srboisvert at 9:46 was on [2 preferences]
Perhaps this is just the locations I checked out, and a self-selecting bias, but
Temperatures: in the UK we obtain some place of a weather program – as there are a broad tendency for everywhere is having generally alike kind of elements. In comparison the united states try large enough to support whole front methods as there are the expectation that some other part of the country might be coping with, generally, various periods any kind of time one moment.
I am curious if suppose, San Francisco possess much better assistance services, and as a consequence more individuals with disabilities action there?
Volunteers: everywhere in which you will find artwork to get appreciated, character as savoured or neighborhood record becoming fully understood this indicates there is certainly a good amount of super-friendly, well organised folks donating their unique time and energy to describe and respond to questions.
Transportation impaired men and women: The fairly highest amount of treatment to which the environmental surroundings was created to allow for all of them – additionally the seemingly lot of people that go with this category. posted by rongorongo at AM on [1 preferred]
– movement reduced someone: Yeah. There are so much more those who were visibly maimed somehow. In wheelchairs, missing out on a leg, arm, or other noticeable handicap.
I’m really hoping which was they, since it really was, surprising and terrifying (even when you’ll find difficulties with the health attention program over here, are they actually that. obvious?).
– I can’t believe I forgot one of the greatest! Toilets! a) visitors have a look at you love you stated an awful phrase once you inquire how to locate the Toilets. You will want to state bathroom, even in the event they plainly do not have bath/shower. Or some body over pointed out, you will want to actually try for ‘restroom’. Lavatory is evidently a bad/naughty/impolite term.
b) The pan profile is different. You’re disconcertingly, plenty nearer to water (be cautious as soon as you wipe!), yet they can be normally wide and superficial to the stage in which issues get round and round, rather than simply straight-going all the way down. Much less flushing electricity. Oddly ineffective.
– Cheese. I pointed out cheap mozzarella cheese doesn’t flavor nearly as good, but the various other thing are, it’s colored lime. Its actually merely have orange dye included, for no reasons, but it’s this type of a tradition, it’s familiar now and shade of ‘proper cheese’. posted by Elysum at 1:03 PM on [1 preferred]
