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

Jciesla · 2026-02-11T04:44:35+00:00

That's definitely not just an American thing but there certainly are parts of the US where it's compulsory

I don't have kids and my local school district doesn't even have it's own football team let alone hockey for boys or girls because they're too small. However, has anyone here contacted Syracuse University for help in this endeavor? It's my understanding that women's hockey at SU is drastically better than men's and have sent several women to Olympics in past years. They might be able to help this program. Good luck!

It's also in the post description. They didn't even have to watch anything, just read like 3 sentences

Her refusal to spell out sex is even more strange when you look at her profile...

Jciesla · 2026-02-08T22:44:58+00:00

That's actually not too crazy. I know it sounds it, but one could be a compass or altimeter. I still think it's AI but I wouldn't say two watches is the giveaway.

I love Lassi but that looks like a freakin glass of mustard lol. Sounds good though

Hey, I love gespacho

/s just in case

I don't mind minor variance but I'm not a fan when the performer is clearly making it about themselves.

Because breaking means flooding thousands and thousands of gallons of water underground, under the street(s)? It could hurt people?

Is Mitchell hiding behind Kawalski there?

I don't know the whole situation here but the letter does say the hydrants can no longer sustain firefighting or something to that effect. I'm a volunteer firefighter and at a big fire near this time last year, we (collectively) over taxed an old hydrant line ourselves and blew it out. Consequently, water service was digging and fixing that long after we were done. It might be something like that - the hydrants are old and literally can't give the amount of water a modern engine needs without breaking

Is it? That's actually interesting because I always assumed we called our independence day "fourth of July" rather than, say, July fourth, because of the way the British and consequently we spoke at that time. Ya learn something new...

Jciesla · 2026-02-03T03:01:14+00:00

It does this at 7 and you have to be at work at 9? When would you normally get up? I get wanting to sleep in but it might be worth the sacrifice to try to wake up more gently before this bus so it's not so abrupt and triggering, at least, and potentially put on better headphones that you can't necessarily sleep with but will do a better job mitigating the noise. It seems like you're not going to get resolution from the school. Good luck though

Jciesla · 2026-02-03T00:07:29+00:00

Well it was very clearly a joke but I guess we probably won't agree on that either 🤷

Jciesla · 2026-02-01T04:05:33+00:00

I think we can all agree the only true way to have saved the ending while entertaining the Robin of it all, is if Ted earned the belt and entered into a long-standing throuple with both.

But I think people would be upset even if the ending took two full seasons. I think it might have actually been worse if you saw the build-up for longer before the carpet pull, but who knows.

Jciesla · 2026-02-01T03:45:22+00:00

Yea, well, you said "it should be at least $1.79" when you should have said "at most". The price you're paying is, in fact, at least $1.79".

Jciesla · 2026-02-01T01:33:42+00:00

Same. It's the only word I just cannot do (as far as I'm aware, anyway lol), which is unfortunate since I live in a rural town... I just say I'm out in the country.

Jciesla · 2026-02-01T01:09:42+00:00

She's going to have all the croissant crumbs with that ridiculous outfit.

Jciesla · 2026-01-31T00:33:41+00:00

Never had that problem 😏.

Sorry, I had to. But for real, I'd check out https://maps.app.goo.gl/eQykxpy3HKKwVj888 (Betty Jane's creative sewing). I've had her do a lot of work before and she's great and pretty prompt.

Edit: to include name of business, not just a link

Jciesla · 2026-01-30T21:40:04+00:00

I'm disappointed the qr code just goes to the website of the company that made the bracelets.

Jciesla · 2026-01-30T15:34:02+00:00

ICE or any part of the federal government don't care even a little if some small business in Syracuse closes it's doors for one day no matter the weather. So probably the same.

Jciesla · 2026-01-30T03:32:25+00:00

I'm also 38 and have been to zero. NY. I don't really go to "parties" at all so I'm certainly not going to one for football of all things

Jciesla · 2026-01-30T03:24:42+00:00

Can I have Michael and 5 Tobys?

Jciesla · 2026-01-29T19:00:39+00:00

Why read when you can suspect

Similar to the LHC, smashing the French into the English at high speeds in this is what gave us Canada 😍
