The differences between Americans and Europeans, especially Western Europeans, seem to be endless, no matter where you look. The driving culture is different, the restaurant culture is different, and people carry themselves differently when they’re out and about. Even the smallest things, such as the temperature of drinking water, are things Europeans and Americans are ready to disagree on.
However, if there is one thing both sides can agree on, it's that they love teasing each other about these differences. Americans like to point at European high taxes, paid bathrooms, and awful smoking habits. Europeans, on the other hand, like to bring up the healthcare system, sugary foods, and the unfair tipping arrangements.
So, it’s no surprise that when the recent trend of things that the “European mind can’t comprehend” took off, the Europeans were ready to strike back. They all took it personally and came up with a bunch of things that the “American mind can’t comprehend,” and shared them online. Scroll down to marvel at the funniest of them all.

Meh, this one's weak. I learned both the moronic imperial system AND the metric system in my 1990-2000s US education.
They exist in America. They're just not the same as they once were. The toy is in one half and the food part in the other half
why do I get the feeling that this photo was taken in the Netherlands? >.>
But but how else are the bloodsucking insurance companies supposed to make their profits??? Who'll think of the billionaires?? 🥺
Living in Germany these are on every house, dont have A/C but these really help keep the house cool
They used to be common here. It's the original bidet, for washing "down there". Bidet is a deprecating name for "horse", since you had to ride it. It was introduced in the late 19th century... as a preventative for both MSTs and unwanted pregnancies, and was first popular with courtesans. "Honest" women didn't touch ( or wash) " those places".
Best add the mainland European minds to the list since I've yet to meet one who does this ;)
I'm German like that clown and I can't comprehend this either. I hope he just wants to share with 12 buddies
Um yeah, American here. I learned to drive on a stick shift.
It looks like just a pen to me. Is there something special about it?
Not everywhere though. Come to the Netherlands and you will pay like 3 euros for a small one ( 1/4 liter , which is half the size on te picture)
The UK must be way smaller than I thought. It takes 2 days to cross my state on car
To be fair, most of europe also can't comprehend the British cuisine either
I think they do comprehend humongous serving sizes better than we do
I'm pretty sure the American mind can "comprehend" a heck of a lot more than this article claims.
Yep, just like the European mind. This stuff is just insulting!
Load More Replies...What's it with making reverse articles of things that were unpopular on this site recently? First all the celebrity articles, now girl math and boy math that nobody likes, and now this? We already had the reverse and it was downvoted, learn from it!
They use it for clickbait ads on other website/apps. Sadly, it works. I don't think they even care the regular pandas downvote it, it's already served its purpose by then. Turning the worst of humans into money. It's a twisted world we live in :(
Load More Replies...Good job BP "writers", this is the third anti-American "article " in a week. Way to really spread the stupidity and xenophobia, ya àsswipes! I know this isn't true but, by all the hateful shìt this website puts out, sounds like Europeans can't comprehend how to be kind, civil humans. I'd rather be wrongfully thought as ignorant than so blatantly, undeniably a dìckhead.
