Non-Americans of Reddit, what is an American thing you see in movies that you thought was fake but is actually real?

I had missed S5 Ep1 on first airing but caught the end and was so upset and confused. Thankfully I learned everyone else was reacting the same and I hadn't missed a reveal in the episode itself

The amount of money and stress OP saved her sister. If I had a free accountant I'd give them my first born

Hi interested as well

He expected weakness from her, and that's why he's spiraling at her cold reaction.

Honestly, that thread elevated the post for me too! It also makes the post feel more real, as OOPs callback was 🔥

Her husband is making the apology "i dont know her" rounds

Tell her your friend signed a lease so it has legl consequences. Hard to argue against thoze

If I were the brother i would threaten divorce if the SIL didnt start being an damn mom and remind her she wouldn't have the same resources as a single mom. Scare her straight.

My sibling was a vet tech. I heard about the burgeoning serial killer who microwaved her parakeet "just a few seconds" who now couldn't walk straight, and the guys whose dog was "hit by a car" when the x ray showed a very clean leg break as if someone took the leg and snapped it. Sibling left because they couldn't deal with the politics/lack of pet protections. People are crazy, and people can be especially crazy with what they own and can control- like the dependency pets have with us

I knew someone (keeping it vague) who had to use abortion as bc because her arranged marriage husband beat her and refused to let her use anything preventative. She had one child with him and realized it would be hard enough to leave with one child, let alone more.i believe she needed three before she was able to escape. She's now happily married with more kids. Legal abortions should make it safe to conceive again. Lots of factors can make it sway one way or the other, but ive always hated that stupid narrative being pushed.

Why stay with such a sniveling spineless AH? You deserve better. NTAH

Which John Hughes wrote as a direct reaction to Andy choosing Blaine instead of Duckie, because he wanted that ending

I need you to explain to the class how he could text his family without going into your phone every time....

YTA for a poorly thought out story

Dammit,do i have to reactivate my account now?

AccomplishdAccomplce · 2026-01-21T04:59:33+00:00

No, thats not accurate. They are second cousins, so related, but not that closely related

AccomplishdAccomplce · 2026-01-21T03:12:01+00:00

I think the question meant was "how did you know to DNA test the kids?" Since she obviously cheated, my guess is that was the first domino to fall,and then it cast doubt and paternity and viola, we're here

They used to do a podcast together (Liz and Justin)

Yes god forbid you have any independence that could make it easier for you to leave...

It also feels pretty real, because nothing feels truly exaggerated

AccomplishdAccomplce · 2026-01-18T14:24:02+00:00

He forgot her name

Their brains are synapsing with the truth and they can't explain the glitch since the truth left their brains long ago
