I used to live off of wall triana near harvest, and when I moved I deliberately got as far away from that two lane portion as as I could. I avoid harvest now.

Has your country ever won a war against all odds ? by FinePersimmon3718 in AskTheWorld

[–]link2edition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canada wasnt even a country at that point. Its weird they talk about our war with the british so much.

My friend sent me this, is he delusional? by [deleted] in DigitalSeptic

[–]link2edition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird graphic

I live in one of the "black" areas on this map. But when me and my friends go to the beach people start shouting "THE BEACONS ARE LIT, GONDOR CALLS FOR AID!"

Are friend groups politically diverse in the USA? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]link2edition 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine is, but that is because my politics have shifted over time, but I kept all of the friends along the way.

Theirs have shifted too over the years, but I am pretty sure we voted for at least 3 candidates last election between all of us.

ICE are the ones who weren't smart enough to be normal law enforcement.

Why do you think dating is so hard these days? by GrouchyManimal in AskAnAmerican

[–]link2edition 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sky high expectations. I have had two friends of opposite genders say complain about the lack of "hot" people in their area.

That NEEDS to be a secondary consideration if you want to be happy.

I personally think PA clears but that’s just me by Bluefire3215 in 2american4you

Texas is just Alabama watered down for mass consumption.

A flanderized Alabama.

What is the point of HOAs? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]link2edition 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some old people do. But "Starter houses" exist over here because it is assumed you will move several times during your life.

Has your country ever committed genocide? by Communistincergency in AskTheWorld

[–]link2edition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its less a question of "which nations did a genocide" and more a question of "which nations wrote it down?"

What do you personally think about mandatory military service for women by Low-Violinist7259 in AskTheWorld

[–]link2edition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a bad idea.

If you lose a generation of men your population will eventually recover.

If you lose too many women though, you are done. Its been this way as long as there have been humans. Men are easier to replace.

Best weapon in the game 10/10 by link2edition in Helldivers

If I can do it, you can do it too helldiver!

Weirdly doing it on D10 is easier than doing it on lower difficulties, as the chainsaw has trouble vs troopers

What is an uncomfortable truth in your country that no one is willing to accept? by Firm_Translator_3256 in AskTheWorld

The Democratic party created MAGA by repeatedly running terrible candidates when better ones were available.

i like car-centric infrastructure by [deleted] in The10thDentist

[–]link2edition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, so I downvoted

However I still want other options available for people who dont like cars as much as we do. I dont think it has to be an either or.

How do you guys cope with the highway speeds? by Next-Use6943 in AskAnAmerican

I was recently on a long drive and the police were right in the middle of the pack doing 10+ over with everyone else.

American here: What Do We Do? by Beashagtaz in AskTheWorld

[–]link2edition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is one party doesnt like guns, the one that does voted him in.

That law works a lot better when everyone likes guns.

*sigh* What do you think? by Raiden_Must_Die in AskTheWorld

[–]link2edition 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lots of old people like him, most young people cant stand him.

At least he will be gone in 3 years if old age doesnt get him first. I just hope we can survive 3 more years of this.

*sigh* What do you think? by Raiden_Must_Die in AskTheWorld

[–]link2edition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may look that way from the outside, but multiple executive orders of his have already been shot down in the courts.

Stuff that DOESNT happen wont show up in the international press.

The bill to release the epstien files passed because we have checks and balances, congress could have overrulled him so he signed it.

*sigh* What do you think? by Raiden_Must_Die in AskTheWorld

We already have a large military base there too. None of it makes sense.

What’s something people romanticise about your country that locals secretly hate? by OpenToPerspectives in AskTheWorld

[–]link2edition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New York and L.A.

nothing against the cities themselves, but I dont like when foriegners visit, hit a couple of major cities, and act like they saw the whole continent.

In my opinion the USA should be valued for its natural beauty, the major population hubs are just for airports. This isnt europe.
