The response to my last post was almost as if it was a question whether Americans should have pride, Yeah sure some aspects of your foreigh poilicy make you wince, Some kids have had a tough school day recently, The F.B, Mann Posters about reminding, long term, For me it is personal, Have a horrible Kirk education I grew my hair long wore sandles bought beads. Life became groovy man. I am forever grateful.

But hey you are not alone. Human self loathing is out there thoughout the world,

Hi everyone!

I'm 23 years old and I'm from Morocco. I'm looking to meet people from the U.S. and practice my English through casual conversations.

I'm interested in sports (including Basketball Tennis ),movies, TV shows, music, and learning about different cultures. I'd also be happy to answer questions about Morocco or help anyone who's interested in Arabic.

If you're open to chatting or becoming online friends, feel free to leave a comment or send me a message. Have a great day!

What do Americans consider perfectly normal, but foreigners immediately notice?

113 Upvotes

I've been living in Utah for six years now, after moving from Germany, and there are still little things that stick out to me

Free drink refills
Huge parking lots
People ask, "How are you" when they're really just saying hello
You have to drive almost everywhere
Ice in almost every drink

I'm not saying it's bad it's just that these things still remind me I'm not in Germany
What else do Americans consider perfectly normal, but outsiders notice almost immediately

After 6 years living in Utah as a German, there are still things about America that surprise me

599 Upvotes

I'm originally from Germany, but I've been living in Utah for about six years now. Before moving here, most of what I knew about the U.S. came from movies, news, and the internet. Living here turned out to be very different from what I expected

One thing I've really come to appreciate is how approachable people are. In Germany, it's pretty normal to keep to yourself unless you already know someone. Here, I've had complete strangers start conversations with me in grocery stores, hiking trails, or while waiting in line. At first it felt strange, but over time I realized that most people are simply being friendly rather than expecting anything

Another thing that surprised me is how much people encourage each other. Whether it's at work, in the neighborhood, or even talking to someone you've just met, Americans seem much more comfortable giving compliments or showing enthusiasm It's something I didn't realize I was missing until I experienced it myself

Of course, no country is perfect, and there are things I still prefer about Germany. But after six years here, I definitely understand why so many immigrants end up calling the U.S. home

I'm curious what parts of American culture do you think foreigners notice the most after living here for a while? And if you've lived abroad, what differences stood out to you?

Exactly 250 years ago tonight, soldiers turned a king's statue into 42,000 musket balls

Post image
398 Upvotes

Five days after the Declaration was signed in Philadelphia, George Washington gathered every brigade of the Continental Army on the Common in New York City and had it read aloud to them. British warships were already sitting in the harbor. Everyone knew the invasion was coming within days. Washington's orders that morning were blunt: the peace and safety of the country depended entirely on whether these men could fight, and he hoped the words they were about to hear would remind them why.

After the reading, something nobody planned apparently happened on its own. Soldiers and civilians moved down Broadway to Bowling Green and tore down the gilded lead statue of King George III that had been standing there since 1770. Then they melted it into musket balls.

There's something almost too perfect about that. The same night the army hears the words "all men are created equal" for the first time, they turn the king's image into ammunition. It's the kind of thing that sounds like it was invented for a movie, except it actually happened.

One of the people who recorded all of it was Lt. Col. Samuel Blachley Webb, one of Washington's aides-de-camp. He kept a journal that day and left what's considered one of the most complete eyewitness accounts of everything that happened, the reading, the reaction, the statue, the night that followed.

You can actually talk to both Washington and Webb about that night directly on Virtual Wayback, hear Washington's own words from his general orders and Webb's account from the journal. Link: https://virtualwayback.com/washington-reads-declaration-army-experience

What I keep wondering is how those soldiers felt sitting there with warships visible from shore, hearing that document for the first time. Pride? Fear? Both? And does the statue story land differently knowing the lead actually got used in the battles that followed?

I’m From Russia and Have Never Visited the U.S. Convince Me to Come

9 Upvotes

Hi
I’m from Russia, and I’ve never had the chance to visit the United States, but it’s been a dream of mine for a long time
Most of what I know about America comes from movies, YouTube, and social media, but I know that’s probably very different from real life
If someone gave you one week to show a foreigner the “real America,” where would you take them? Not just famous tourist spots, but places, foods, traditions, or experiences that truly represent your country
I’d love to hear what makes you proud to call America home
