8. Only in America......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

<------- Is guilty of that and isnt in America. (Ordering diet coke makes me feel better plus it tastes a lot better than normal coke!)

[Kitsun]

Hehehe.

I thought they change the hot dog and bun packaging, actually.

[Hanksbane]

Woo! Go America! We r0x0r!

[crazymage]

Some of those are pretty dumb

3. Only in America......do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get

Its to deter people robbing medications.

9. Only in America......do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.

Thats because its a greek word not latin.


2. Only in America......are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink.

So Elderly or disabled people arent supposed to watch or bring people to skating rinks..

Sergey shit on my funny.

My best friend always ordered a double quarter pounder with cheese, supersized fries and a diet coke. Never understood it, but she was also 5'11 and had a high metabolism, so I guess she just liked the taste of diet coke.

[Betheny]

They shouldn't call them diet sodas, they should call them sugar-free.

[Bobmuhthol]

Or people should stop getting fat/caring about their weight.

[crazymage]

I did. I dislike anti-american funnies...make a good Canadian one.

[Edaarin]

Only in Canada...would you find someone like Chadj or X.

[Alarke]

and they make drive through ATMs with braille cause they are actually cheaper than ones without braille...dont ask me why, but whatever.

[GSLeloo]

I always drink a diet coke but then again I usually order a grilled chicken sandwich or a chicken salad, no fries.

More comman and reasonable use is in the instance of my good friends grandfather whos damn past his time. Well long story short, we drove up to the atm and pulled up along side it so he was capable of using the machine from the rear drivers side seat.

Its a hell of a lot easier to steal junk than it is my old mans half ton truck with GPS system that funnily enough allows authoritys to locate the vehicle.

Some of those were funny when i heard them oh say a good 4 years ago

The whole thing was tongue in cheek and as such funny. Although I gotta agree that diet coke tastes FAR superior to regular coke.

Not even close.. Espically the nast aftertaste. I can't drink diet anything it's too gross

[Shari]

8. Only in America......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

I fucking hate this. Hence the reason I don't eat hotdogs. Its a god-damned conspiracy, I tell ya!

And I asked once regarding the braille on drive-up ATMs. They're all manufatured the same way with braille in the number pad molds..would cost extra time and effort to make non-braille pads for the drive ups, wouldn't it?

Oh and X? Diet coke is FOUL. :D

Diversity is good. You can drink the evil nasty tasting stuff and leave the good stuff for those of us with tastebuds. See it all balances out :grin:

[i remember halloween]

[Artha]

11. Only in America......can a homeless combat veteran live in a cardboard box and a draft dodger(s) live in the White House.

Where else is a homeless combat veteran going to live?
