        As an American, I’ll trade places with you any fucking time.

        I’ll even buy you a starter set of truck nuts to sweeten the deal.

            I’ve spent time there. At least they read. At least they value knowledge to some extent. At least their museums and galleries get meaningful local visitation.

            I’ll take no sun over the extent of our prideful willful ignorance. They have ignorant hicks too, hi brexiteers, but I’d bet on the sheer, proud, nonsensical stupidity of our median citizen up against theirs any day.

            Nobody out duhhhhhs the United States. Nobody. Ask a random American who the current Vice President is. More random Brits could accurately tell you about our current power structure than Americans could about their own.

            Also, and I know I’m in the minority here, but their food fucking rocks.

            I lived in the Windsor area in England, GA and VA in the USA and outside Toronto, Canada. Every place was the same with different accents. Same people.
