Yes, and not even that stands. Every language you have, we have here as well. Just because English is our primary language doesn't mean everyone here speaks it, either. Is it so hard to believe a nation of immigrants from around the globe is somehow more culturally diverse than Europe? Tell me where you're from and I'll take you to a community here that has everything you have there down to the floor tiles.

Dang...6 day old response and I just got the notification. Sorry!

They are not tiny by comparison, which is what I'm trying to convey. For one, we have every culture in the world fully represented here across multiple regions. If that isn't enough to convince you, take a trip that includes maybe LA, Seattle, Idaho, Minnesota or anything adjacent, NYC, south Florida, Alabama or Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas. I doubt this will convince you, but I have to at least try. It really bothers me when people say shit like "Americans are x," completely discounting the fact that we are a federation of 50 different countries, each with it's own unique laws and cultures.

You take yours down??

You aren't arguing. You're just saying "nuh uh" and "ur stupid". Well, you got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.

Naw, that's more like LA vs SF when talking about Californians. Different beliefs, social behavior, dialects, history, architecture, etc.

You guys really need to get away from lumping Americans in the same bin in conversation. The US is huge and covers more diverse cultures in a single state than most people understand. We're friends with Europeans, regardless of what country you're from. We love you guys! Stop falling victim to propaganda and remember that we are allies.

Cool. So you resort to insults and unsupported denial as your strongest arguments. You got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.

lol at the UK tag while talking shit

C'mon now. "Laptop monitor turn off" has never generated a good result, even in the before time. I share the question: what are these people searching for that Google is generally yielding worse results than other engines? For anything sysadmin, IT-related, or any sort of troubleshooting, I've always needed to be creative to get to the good stuff.

Yesn't

I can only speak for myself, but it wasn't so much the line as the hand-waving that came with it. It was more that I found the line relatable, but you're right about it being appropriate for the scene.

Thanks for the explanation and context. Your opinion makes more sense now.

In the short term, renting isn't always stupid if you can own, but most of the time it is. In the long term, renting is, with very rare exceptions, much worse than buying. For context, even those who bought in 2005 at the peak of the last housing bubble on a fixed 30y are saving a fuckton by owning rather than renting. They would be paying 3-4x more renting than owning today.
