Who does not want to go on a Vacation at the Côte d'Azur in the US, middle of nowhere instead of the french riviera.

Googled Côte d'Azur and the search algorythm suggested a place in the middle of nowhere instead of the french riviera...

was it just me or was this year's July 4 godawful in terms of defaultism??

In all "global" discord servers and a lot of subreddits the Americans were flooding them with "HAPPY JULY 4 EVERYBODY(TM)". Tagging (at)everyone, assuming literally everyone in the world celebrates their downhill-spiral of a country. Asking how we're (apparently) celebrating it.

I'M FUCKING SICK OF IT. I was suffering all day yesterday and was actually considering deleting social media

Quantas TV's é minha altura?

I was once chatting with an American woman (in an online RPG) and she asked for my height; I answered in centimeters. She was confused and asked what that was. I explained that it was a unit of measurement (meters divided by 100), and she then asked me to give the answer the "right" way—in American inches. I laughed and said I’d calculate it; I gave the answer quickly, and she was impressed. She wondered how I’d calculated it so fast if I wasn't familiar with American inches. I explained that in Brazil, we use inches to express screen sizes, citing TVs as an example. She burst out laughing and said, "So, how many TVs did you use to measure yourself?" LOL

Up north of where

"Up north" to me means the north of England because... I live in England. I wish American posters were as self aware.
