The lifestyle of Americans is entirely different. When they see people’s lifestyles from other countries, they find it strange and absurd. <\/p>\n

A user asked the forum<\/a>, “Americans, what’s something the rest of the world does that you find absurd?” Here are the top responses. <\/p>\n

LACK OF SCREEN<\/h2>\n
\"Scared

“I don’t know if it’s everywhere, but I noticed a conspicuous lack of screens in windows while I was in Europe. It’s so simple, and it prevents bugs. I was woken up by bugs in 4 separate European countries. Why?! You don’t need to live like that.”<\/p>\n

TURD SHELVES<\/h2>\n

“Turd shelves. I’m looking at you, Netherlands.”<\/p>\n

FREE WATER<\/h2>\n

“Water should always be free at restaurants.”<\/p>\n

AIR CONDITIONER <\/h2>\n

“How are y’all living without Air Conditioner?”<\/p>\n

TOILET PAPER <\/h2>\n

“Not ‘the rest,’ but some countries throw toilet paper in the trash can, which is horrifying.”<\/p>\n

CRITICIZING AMERICANS<\/h2>\n
\"Portrait

“Criticizing Americans’ lack of ‘culture,’ all the while wearing American style clothes, listening to American music, watching American movies\/tv shows, following American politics and copying American popular culture at every turn.”<\/p>\n

SMOKING <\/h2>\n

“That smoking is still so common. It goes to Europe, Asia, and South America. Probably other places, too. We in the United States have since started embracing vaping, which is its problem, but at least we made cigarettes uncool. <\/p>\n

The rest of the world is dealing with both in huge numbers. There were a few glorious years in the United States before vaping, but after, cigarettes were uncool, and almost no one smoked. That was amazing.”<\/p>\n

SOCCER<\/h2>\n

“Soccer. Not the game, but how insane the fans are.”<\/p>\n

APARTMENT RENTAL NOT COMING WITH KITCHENS <\/h2>\n

“Apartment rentals not coming with kitchens. How can anyone afford to install new kitchens every time they move? Plus, you can’t even take it with you as every apartment has a different arrangement.”<\/p>\n

PEOPLE DON’T WEAR DEODORANTS <\/h2>\n

“People that don’t wear deodorant. Not the whole world, but a lot of people don’t. How can you be in a relationship with someone who smells from 30 feet away?”<\/p>\n

LACK OF DISABILITY ACCESS<\/h2>\n
\"I

“Lack of disability access. Don’t give me that excuse about how old your buildings are; you had no problem rebuilding most of the ones that were leveled after World War II; you can install a concrete ramp.”<\/p>\n

NO ICE IN DRINKS <\/h2>\n
\"Shy

“Not putting ice in drinks by default and relatedly, no free refills at restaurants.”<\/p>\n

ARRANGED MARRIAGES <\/h2>\n
\"Portrait

“Not the rest of the world, but I will never understand arranged marriages. I can’t imagine being forced to have children with someone you may not like.”<\/p>\n

DRIVING STYLE <\/h2>\n
\"Excited

“Driving on the right side of a car.”<\/p>\n

WASHERS AND DRYERS<\/h2>\n

“Washers and dryers (and washer-dryers) that take 3 to 5 hours to complete a single small load of laundry. Seriously, how are you even able to get a reasonable amount done? Any set that consistently takes longer than 2 hours to complete what it considers a full load isn’t worth the parts it was built with.”<\/p>\n

TRUSTING YOUR GOVERNMENT <\/h2>\n
\"Beautiful

“Trust your government. I lived in Germany for a while and couldn’t understand how people naturally trust the government. I was like, look at this continent’s history, and yet you trust. I didn’t get it.”<\/p>\n

TEXTING VIA WHATSAPP <\/h2>\n
\"Woman

“Text via WhatsApp. I understand why it got popular, but you can switch to regular texting now.”<\/p>\n

PAID PUBLIC BATHROOMS <\/h2>\n

“I’ve heard some countries have to pay to use a public restroom. Though I’ve never checked that to see if it’s true.”<\/p>\n
