Ansible Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 Here is some stuff I found while surfing the net (LMAO): 1. Only in America.....can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance. 2. Only in America......are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink. 3. Only in America......do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front. 4. Only in America......do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke. 5. Only in America......do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters. 6. Only in America......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage. 7. Only in America......do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place. 8. Only in America......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight. 9. Only in America......do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'. 10. Only in America......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibballin Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 i agree it was funny and im by far Patriotic but just in general ive notice some animosity toward america. an example would be the which is your favorite sport thead. when americans where talking about american football, right away people where starting to build tension. well i guess i was just curious on "why" and i feel im at defense becasue i grew up in a us military family (Unfortunately) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharaFett Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 nah there's just people from all over the world here-- and america stands out from all of them because of *cough*bush*cough*. even though im from the US, there's no denying it- bush gives this country a shameful name. he represents that mtv sort of look that makes us all seem like superficial dopes. and that's hardly the case. but you have to admit- george dubbya has a pretty damn good administration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercen4ry Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 Yeah, I've seen this list before... and it's still funny. Pardon me while I add a few more, even if a couple are a stretch... Only in America.... are there more choices of beer and liquor at the market than any kind of foodstuff available. Only in America.... will you find some rather interesting stores next to each other... -Real Examples- Jenny Craig right next to Dunken Doughnuts. A councelling center right by "Totally Nuts." Lipstik (a strip club) right next to "Kiddie Kampus." (Hey mommy, what's THAT?) ... and two of those three are in your town. Only in America.... can "Rush Hour" last all day long. and finally, Only in America.... can you get free food, free beer, and free amounts of "Designer" items... but no free health care. And I'm American, at that. Two of the three store proximity examples really are from my home town, too. Edit: Oh, and I almost forgot: Only in America.... Can they serve piping hot coffee that you promptly spill on your lap over a speed-bump.... and you win $32 million dollars for it in court.
