Stupid Things In America

I'm English, but my place of residence alternates between England and the wonderful sunny state of California. I generally love it over there in Silicon Valley, but there's quite a few things over there that made me think "okay that's plain dumb."


1. Firstly, I came across this ice-cream brand called "three twins." Am I the only one who sees a problem with this? No? Yes? Being a picky person, I'm generally annoyed by brand names that try to be funny with no logic whatsoever.




2. I got this image from the web, because I didn't have my camera with me at the time, but I came across a carousel with not only horses, but a cat...? What? Just plain dumb.



3. The English System. I think this speaks for itself.

4. The food. Again, speaks for itself. It seems like every food has a 'deep fried' or 'extra extra extra large' option. For goodness sake, we really don't need bacon-flavoured chocolate. Also, squirty cheese? No. Just STOP.


5. Convenience foods that save 10 seconds.
Is spreading peanut butter AND jelly really too much to ask?


Well that's all I can think of for now. I'll add more as I remember. 
Note: This is all in good spirit. I'm not saying that all Americans are dumb or whatever. I love America! :) Just wrote this for a laugh.

    Uhm. These things are all great. A carousel with cats? Absolutely. Bravo. And the last one? America ingenuity at it's finest. It's both disgusting and efficient.

    Here in America, we do what we want. It doesn't have to make sense.

      Ahaha oh my gosh Nicole. Note the disclaimer at the bottom:
      "Note: This is all in good spirit. I'm not saying that all Americans are dumb or whatever. I love America! :) Just wrote this for a laugh."
      Remember that what I've written here is purely my own opinion, which I am entitled to.

      You know what, I should make a "stupid things in England" post as well. Hey, that's actually a good idea...
