It is a fact that rest of the world finds America and Americans weird. It is so because everything from language, culture to food is different here. We aren't weird; we are just too cool for rest of the world to understand! Friends from UK and Canada never find it boring to show how everything here in America is different. Here are fifteen funny pictures that show how Americans confuse the rest of the world with their funny habits and culture.
10.American Currency and Green Color
In other countries, banknotes are available in multiple colors. They have different colors for bills of different values. America uses a specialized green ink on dollar bills. American dollar bills can't be copied, reproduced, or even destroyed by acid. The country introduced green dollar bills back in 1857, mainly to prevent counterfeiters making fake money.
11.Another Case of US English vs. British English
We all use 'quite' to describe something that's really good, big etc. When we say 'that was quite a long story', we actually mean it is very long. However, when British people use 'quite' in a sentence, they only mean 'okay', 'sort of', 'fairly' etc.
British people are quite good at English!!! Aren't they?
12.This Sums up American Culture!
People from around the world, post and share this picture in internet forums with taglines that read as 'this sums up American culture'. Well, we don't have any problem in accepting that. After all, we need food to survive when we live, and we need God when leave our physical bodies. Why only America? This should be any country's culture! Eat, live and die peacefully.
