Losing a war with flightless birds.
Have you tried diplomacy?
We try to get the fallen back but none yet.
Okay not my country of residence, but you can choose to burn at the 4th hottest global temp of 54C (129F) or you can also freeze at -65C (-85F).
Optionally, you can also enjoy staring directly at the sun as it rises or sets due to the air pollution.
Oh and you can also find this funni river dolphin:
Sir, this is a duck
I didn’t know this would be a guessing game. What is Pakistan?
Hehe yes.
What a guy
Ketchup chips.
What kind of chips do you mean? French fries or Lays? If the latter, I doubt it. If the first, I doubt it. Salt and vinegar crisps on the other hand, are uniquely popular in the UK.
Potato chips! We have salt and vinnies here too. Not unique to the UK at all.
- Not being able to afford healthcare.
- Half of the population worshipping a felonious, racist, homophonic sexist as if he’s a deity.
- Barbecue.
- using Imperial over metric system
None of these are unique by any means (i wish the second was but fascism is rising globally).
The styles of it tho, I’ll give you that.
There are two types of BBQ: KC and wrong.
Probably like, 95% of the people in my city are either neutral or supportive of LGBT people. The last 5% are so fucking insane that it’s still scary to be LGBT. - (major Texas city)
Edit: I kinda assume this is unique because I’d think most places are either safe (with the occasional heckler) or completely unsafe. Texas seems special because it seems like most people don’t care or are supportive, but then you get the nutjob who’s entire reality is shattered by the idea that you aren’t straight and/or cisgendered and all they can do is get apocalyptically mad about your existence.
Edit 2: oh yeah, on a less depressing note, iirc Texas is like, sorta kinda half canyon. Iirc Palo Duro canyon doesn’t really have an end to it, it just kinda… widens until it becomes part of the normal landscape (I might be thinking of a different canyon though). As such, you could basically consider anything downstream from the canyon as being inside the canyon, resulting in a huge chunk of Texas existing in a canyon!
Churches the size of castles full of people preaching humility.
US or is there another?
I assume some place in Europe because they write literally have cathedrals and such that are like castles.
Though, I’ve never actually seen a megachurch from the US to be able to compare sizes. They’re definitely unique to the US.
The American mega churches usually don’t really look too much like churches and more like gigantic stadiums or even tents because they’re meant to accommodate thousands of people. But we do have “proper” churches which look like castles. Mostly on the east coast, from what I’ve seen. (I’m sorry, but I can never view those massive, super evangelical megachurches as anything more than a cult.)
Christ I hope there isn’t
Well there’s this place…
I mean I guess you can have ONE but we’re lousy with ‘em over here.
Yeah it feels like they’re about as common as Costcos these days
Not just humility but literally poverty as a virtue too
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven but there’s such a thing as the Space Needle, and camels are like tiny compared to that thing…
Good thing the Space Needle has no eye.
Leave me alone! I’m rationalizing!
Bro there are massive churches, cathedrals, temples, and mosques, across the Middle East, Europa, Asia, Africa, and both American continents… i assure you it’s not unique to whatever country you’re in
I guess I’ve never seen the equivalent of a megachurch anywhere else though. Cathedrals are big, for sure, but not like some of these monstrosities.
Walk in the Vatican City or il duomo in Italy, or St. Paul’s, St. George’s, or Westminster in England, or la sagrada familia in Barcelona… or a large number of other mega churches. Once inside you’ll see they’re comparable to modern mega churches but made ENTIRELY OF MARBLE instead of cheap ass sticks and drywall like American buildings. If you’ve ever been sitting in the pews of il duomo you’ll know you’re truly in a mega church, and once you’re done with service, there like 6 saints entombed a hundred yards from the pulpit, still inside mind you and nowhere close to any of the entrances
Cheesesteaks. And no, a steak sandwich doesn’t count.
Chicken cheesesteak with provolone and fried onions on an amoroso rollllllllll
This has always bothered me. If you don’t use steak how can it do be called acheesesteak.
Fruit Explosion Muffins
Holy shit those look amazing. Those are at Tim Hortons?! I gotta try that shit.
Lower your expectations, it’s still a Tim Horton muffin
Fair. But they’ve had good ones before. That cream filled pumpkin shit muffin was bomb af.
If you go far enough, you will see deserts, tropics, and taigas. I think that’s unique to us, at least…
I was gonna say something similar, but I’m pretty sure the same could be said for the country North of mine. Or South of mine except for the taiga.
Interesting, I can’t think of two countries bordering each other that have all of these.
To be fair, the deserts in the north are frozen. And the taiga here is more connected to them than to us.
US or China?
Maybe Chile? They’ve got a tropical island and the mainland goes from desert to Antarctic
People in the UK drink so much tea (or coffee these days), that breaks in soap operas (such as Eastenders) cause the national grid to be on high alert, due to the incredulous surge of power from so many kettles being turned on at once.
That’s incredible actually
The most popular pop culture in the world
Japan?
No. Lol.
Going bankrupt due to medical bills.
It’s easy to tell where you live.
It’s in your username.
Unchecked gun violence by a population against itself
Proper Poutine
That’s actually really tough in this global age. I live in Japan so things like tea ceremony and Shinto practice come to mind, but there are Shinto shrines and practitioners in many places and people do and teach tea ceremony in other places now. Many would call it the home of sushi and, at least for the common types today, it’s probably true (though certain methods that led to sushi are thought to come from Viet Nam in the past).
Tanuki exist in other parts of Asia. I assume onsen (hot sprint) monkeys do as well. Maybe something with Wasabi, but I doubt it. I’m not sure, really.
Edit: thought of one: seeing the Iriomote cat in its natural habitat (although that’s really hard since they were nearly hunted to extinction for their pelts at one point). Speaking of Okinawan islands, you can also see Taiwan on a good day from the westernmost point of Yonaguni. That was neat. I took a picture with my phone at the time and it’s really hard to see anything, but I could see land with my eyes.
