Love it! All, so so true. But that display shelf is rather interesting don't you think....? |
i thought it was just the germans that liked to look at that kind of 'stuff'. |
I think the toilet shelves are a West Coast thing. You'll get crucified if you proclaim ROTUS (Rest Of The US) to be like California. I forget who it was, but some comedian once said that the difference across the Atlantic was that: "In Britain, 100 miles is a long way. In the US, 100 years is a long time." |
The last bit left me just a little bit irritated: not sure what you meant by "the future". I spent a long(ish) time living in USA - as well as UK - and (to me anyway) despite the richness in history that exists here in UK - there is more "future" here than I ever experienced in USA. OK - so we don't have as effective aircon, our fridges are a lot smaller, our cars don't have elaborate coffee-cup holders and we don't put on as good a show as in the US of A - but we are more representative of "the future" in relatively many more dimensions - especially culturally. Apologies - being deliberately controversial - but you started it. Glad to hear that you are having a great time! |
Oops - scrub the last sentence - replace with "glad to hear that you *had* a great time!" |
*A* future certainly. Not *The* future... I hope. |
OK, maybe that was a tad depressing. Let's try a new last line... |
Nice one! |
This post made me smile |
The toilet shelf thing is not normal in most of the US, especially CA. The rest of it is true |
Have you been to America's East Coast, Geezer? We are a bit different from the West Coast. We have more old tv presenters than you could possibly imagine. (Most of them work in Congress) or our major news networks. |
Aside from that, we have efficient mass transit, smoke-filled bars (unlike California which has banned them) and don't have the sun-kissed look or accent for that matter. |
