50 Funny Pics Europeans Posted To Confuse Americans

In New Zealand we generally get 4-5 weeks paid leave each year plus several paid Public Holidays throughout the year.

Korea does it better. The stalls go all the way to the ground and quite a few of the toilets are bidets. But yeah, our toilet stalls kind of suck.

Due to a law enacted in the 1930’s that says food items may not contain non-food items, these cannot be sold in the US. They came up with a “Kinder Joy” version that has the chocolate on one side and the prize on the other, separated so it is allowed.

In the US, eggs are washed and lose a protective layer so need to be refrigerated.

That looks amazing. OP's comment about the beans is stupid, though. Americans eat a lot of TexMex and a lot of those breakfasts have refried beans. Baked beans would not be a stretch at all.

You got us there. It used to be that in the US you could count on being off around the holidays of a few different religions. Now you just work every day until you die.

Yeah sorry rest of the world. the USA doesn't do metric. lol

Why would we not comprehend this? I mean....we have bikes... and bike paths. And people who bike interstate. not me but healthy people

Only because Kei Cars and Kei Trucks are illegal here for "safety" reasons. Really it's lobbism from the Big 3 keeping them out. I'd love a tiny little truck or car.

LOL here in Portland, Oregon that space would be flooded with equally drunk skaters grinding down that hand rail.

An old American like me sure can. People smoked everywhere back in the 80s.

But it wasn't a component level item was it? RS finally went out of business in the USA because they stopped selling anything anyone actually needed that they couldn't get at a bunch of competitors like Best Buy, Walmart, others. I used to work in one. But I stopped shopping in them long before they closed.

We can’t comprehend sidewalks and bike paths? Such a stupid post

The Swiss Alps? A lake in Northern Italy? I am quite aware of these places.

To be fair, this also wasn't exactly business as ususal for my European mind.

I've been to the Vatican and it is pretty impressive. On the other hand, how the Catholic church got its money over the years and some of the other things it has done are not so impressive.

LOL I learned how to drive stick when I was 10yo. Granted it was on a tractor. There isn't a gearbox invented I can't handle.

Mmmm sandy sandwich and sandy tea...sounds amazing! /s

We'd like to keep it that way

History?

Bar food? Granted that is some seriously looking delicious bar food, but honestly I'm starting to think most Europeans are just as ignorant of America as most Americans are ignorant of Europe at this point. This thread is ridiculous.

Having cap stuck to lid so it pokes you in the face while trying to drink, you guys can keep this one.

Notice bottom of OP..."from Baton Rouge, LA" last time I checked that was in the US.

I don’t think anyone comprehends Eurovision, that’s the fun of it…

I love how all the Americans on here are taking these so seriously and getting so offended, whereas they are the same people who love the equivalent « the European mind can’t comprehend this » list. You’re just reinforcing the typical « Americans are so sensitive » sterotype.

Bread, jam, orange juice, train. MIND BLOWN! /S

What? Outdoor seating?

Um, yes we can. Every grocery store I've ever shopped at has a fresh bread section.

Yo they sell this everywhere lmfaoo

Flouting safety rules? I do that all the time.

You can get AERO bars here.

Yup, no one in America drinks beer near bodies of water...what a concept, need to try that! /s

I'm convinced these people know absolutely nothing about America

The one I've owned for years doesn't have the level window. I have to look in the top like an old fashioned British tea kettle. As soon as we get electricity here in the USA I'm going to try plugging it in and see what it does.

Don't know how to break it to the Europeans... mugs are illegal in North America /s

I can honestly say I've never taken that much luggage with me anywhere, and we are avid road trippers.

Because no American has ever had Swiss cheese or used a cheese slicer. /S

Oh no, a building!

What's to comprehend in this picture?

Cooked dough? You're right, we've been just chowing down on raw dough for 250 years.

Some day the USA will have cats. I saw one on youtube once. /s

"the american weak mind". b***h please 💀💀 some of us are idiots but not like the ones here

Huh? I mean.... I guess this is about the Flint water crisis. They may be assuming that all America has unclean tap water because of that. No joke that was a horrific example of wealthy people screwing over poor people and poisoing a community, but it is not exactly normal. I drink from my tap

Aldi has paid shopping carts. One of the most well known grocery stores in the US

I own a pasta maker. It looks exactly like that pasta maker. I have used it.

This is just getting silly. I could go downtown and get any of that.

There is an IKEA literally thirty kilometers (another thing we can comprehend, the metric system!) from my home. You can get there in half an hour. It sells this exact meal. And those exact desserts.

You're kidding, right? Most of the posts are stupid or ignorant or both.

What?
