Saying "oop sorry" when: - you run into an inanimate object - you think there's a slight possibility you may have been in someone's way even a little - someone runs into you
Came to say the same thing, haha. Not sure if province changes the phrasing at all, here we just say "sorry". And non-Canadians think it's because we're so nice, but it just means "whoops", we don't necessarily feel sorry.

I love beans on toast, especially without toast. But I'm not British
Sounds good, baked beans, whole wheat bread and cheese on top! Delish!
I'm sure some people might find how we spell words that usually end with "or" weird. I live in Canada, and we go by the spelling of England when we write those words in English. Example: We spell words like colour or flavour with a U between the O and the R, whereas people living in the US spell it without the U. A lot of my gaming friends from the US find it weird when we talk on Discord, and I use spelling like that.
I'm British, we have the extra letters and I understand why Webster sought to get rid of them. We don't pronounce them and they really don't add anything. That said I really don't understand why people from the US seem so determined to add noise words to the language. 'based off of' instead of 'based on' is one example. 'of' seems to creep in to places where it's neither needed or wanted more and more. The one the really winds me up is 'go ahead and'. Adding this to a sentence is worthless and annoying.
Load More Replies...The letter H gets a bad rap in the US, every time I hear an American say 'erb' instead of herb it's like nails down a blackboard. Italian doesn't have a H sound (I think) so maybe they have taken it from them, but in English its herb with a 'h'.
I really LOVE the spellings where e or a in the U.S. will actually be oe or ae everywhere else, like anaesthetic, manoeuvre, foetus, encyclopaedia, and ESPECIALLY FOECES! Foeces beats feces ANY DAY
We became close to a woman from Belarus and she found it odd we would have hamburgers for dinner. In Belarus, hamburgers are a "snack."
I think every country should adopt this way of thinking about burgers
Maintain lots of personal space, even pre-pandemic. It's already been mentioned that Canadians say "sorry" a lot, I think that other countries think we're so polite because we say it when we bump into or brush against someone else--when we feel like we're in each others' personal space. We just have so much space in general we've gotten used to not having to crowd together, and it's unnerving in other countries when people press much closer--to fit in public transport, for example. This means that we're likely to defer to anyone being more pushy. If a Canadian arrives at a door at the same time as you they're likely to let you go first to avoid getting too close, and both parties may consider that politeness. And...Canadians don't really deserve the "nice" reputation. We want to avoid conflict, but we can be incredibly judgemental behind your back. In regards to the US, for example, there's a line that goas something like "Americans are benevolently ignorant about Canada, while Canadians are malevolently well-informed about the United States".
Grew upon the border. If they didn't realize I came from the US side, would talk awful sh*t. Meanwhile, in the US, everyone was always, "Oh, Canada, it's such a lovely place, every person there is nice!" I have fam in Canada. I have fam in the US. I have fam in other places. Believe me, Canadians can be judgy AF, as if their own poo has no odor.
We do this in Ohio also. Maybe a Canadian/Midwest US thing? "Ope, sorry!"
As a canadian i always think we are seen as polite and nice to a point .. but when weve had enough watch out. We will definitely stand up for what is imp to us,
“I’ts June! Time to go outside!” - coat -hat -scarf -gloves -snow boots -another hat -bigger coat “Okay i amready now, lmao it’s warmer than it usually is”
Its June in australia time to leave the house in a singlet shorts and thongs!
That's the same in every country, June is that kind of month :) . But seeing the Christmas photos of my family in Sydney, Australia that's painful to watch. They are ALWAYS by the pool, in swim suits they eat their festive Christmas dinner, just to emphasize - by the pool, in bathing suits... That's unnatural and kitschy for us, which they are aware of because FAMILY. Christmas ornaments and a richly decorated table in the Traditional European way, blended with the Australian sun and climate that melts our icy European lil hearts. ♥️

Went to Japan and tried to tip at a restaurant... the waitress literally ran halfway across the parking lot to find us and return our money. She was so nice! It just struck me as odd.
That's so interesting! Shouldn't extra money be a compliment?

Same in Japan .. a man in shorts??? All the locals point and laugh .. some take pics!! And laugh ...
The size of the cracks in bathroom stalls in America.
The gaps serve several purposes. Safety, you can see if someone is in the room with you. Hygiene, easy to clean the stalls. Repairs, the whole structure can be removed and replaced by a single person in an hour or two.
Speaking just one language.
I only know English and a little sign language. I don't really plan on learning another language other than furthering my learning on sign
That will be the French then, I have never known anyone there speak anything other than French.
Odd, never had any issue communicating in English when I was in France
Load More Replies...Own guns
Tell me a country where no one owns firearms, no one goes hunting
Load More Replies...Nothing wrong with owning a gun - if you're a responsible adult and use it legitimate sporting purposes. What's weird is owning a gun, or maybe even a room full of guns, and always looking for your next gun to get, chosen specifically because they're of military design, for the purpose of 'defending yourself' against fellow citizens who also own one or maybe many guns of similar design
Some people need guns for protection. Women, for instance, who are alone in their houses. Police officers, other people who work in enforcement and use guns. Some people use guns for hunting (and it’s actually encouraged to hunt deer when they start to overpopulate). It’s when guns are used against people, for the wrong reasons, or by the wrong people with the wrong reasons that it becomes a problem.
so from this I can tell you are north american, not sure if canadian or USA... am I right? Reason is you mention deer and that guns are ok.
Load More Replies...Hold a raw gutted herring by its tail, dip it in diced raw onion, then bend your head back and lower it into your mouth. It's one of our national dishes. Yay for Dutch cuisine.
Does that mean you eat the onion for that extra crunch with the fish? Or after?

Very rare here though through tight control mechanisms - there wasn't a single case last year, and in the last 5 years there were less than 5 cases annualy with none of them caused by comercially sold meat.

I refuse to follow the lead of Mr Pitt and eat my Snickers bar with a knife and fork
Mm, yes I love eating pizza and donuts with a fork
Load More Replies...Nope:) Mostly Indian cuisine and solid food items of other cuisines.
Load More Replies...Saying y'all. I feel like that's not even common throughout America.
When "you" is singular and "you" is plural, y'all fills a felt need.
As far as I understand it, y'all starts at the South, and the further North you go, it changes to you guys. Granted, I'm Dutch, but when speaking English, I will often use y'all, as it's way easier, and I find it sounds better
I'm in Africa and I like using y'all ironcally. In our local afrikaans (dutch) we have a word "julle" pronounced 'yer-ler' which means "yall".
I live up north and say y'all because it fits better, but admittedly I first picked it up down south......

Have a cat, freaking out two people from other countries, who were taught that cats are evil.
Yep. In fact from an African perspective it looks like this: USA: love dogs. UK: love cats. Africa: dogs are guards and cats are scary. Personally, I prefer cats, they mind their own business and do not try take food off my plate. They are also quieter and bury their poop.
My little kitty loved yogurt so much. She would hear me peel the seal off, jump on my lap, stick out the claws and actually grab the tub and pull it away from me. You would've loved her :)
Load More Replies...I know some people find it strange to walk barefoot around at home
I think it’s incredibly strange to wear shoes indoors. I don’t wear slippers or socks inside at all, unless I’m at someone else’s house then I’ll wear socks. But at home? It’s BARE FEET. It’s easier to wash and dry my feet than it is to walk around in gross socks.
I'm paranoid after having a carpet tack stuck in my foot from walking barefoot at home. The tetanus shot hurt worse than the injury.
The entirety of Indian culture. Most people from other countries find it weird. From our food palate, way of cooking, our traditions, to our habits.. everything. I know some will disagree. But I'm talking of the majority.
Nah, we have a lot of indians in South Africa and are used to the culture, we like it a lot.
Traffic! Whenever I see Videos of traffic in India or neighbors, I am baffled.
asking how are you doing when you don't care and it is just being normal yes this is from the USA
I live in the US and I HATE this fake shiit, I give real answers and get the pleasure of the fakers not asking me anymore, and I know who to not get too close to. Imo, this fake shiit is undermining society BADLY
Loving things that were born/invented/created out of colonialism/conquest/slavery. As Americans, we remain awfully sheltered when it comes to how we enjoy what we enjoy. I love IPAs, for example.
To be fair, a lot of stuff was invented to gain an advantage in conquest. Radar, ballistic missles, computers and the paramedic concept are things born in/for warfare but improve safety, all kinds of science and save lives.
To be fair ----- war and conquest have driven a lot of innovations in a lot of nations. It's more sad than weird, for me. :-(
What do we use today that was born, invented, or created out of colonialism, conquest, or slavery?
Out of conquest? Space programms, different vehicles like helicopters, improved communications. Colonialism lead to globalism with it's world wide share of technology and knowledge, since an advancement in one part of the world was benefitial in another part as well for the colonial power. (Trains or tractors being build and used overseas in the 19th century as example)

Do not pay health care costs
At the time of service. In Canada, we pay for it through our taxes.
As a canadian i will gladly pay taxes to pay for health care etc.. although i may be biased as i do work as a social worker..
Load More Replies...We pay throught axes where we don't pay through some other means. No free lunches, alas.
Yes, everyone pay through taxes but when you works your employer need to pay a part in a « mutuelle », for you, your kid and partner. Sorry I dont speak English very well. So I had à cancer at 20 and the cost for me and my family was near to zero.
My willingness to try local cuisines, the way natives make it at home, or in their own fave places. I have had a few regrets (sashimi was one) but people find it weird that an American would try this. Why is it weird? I'm in your country, I'm eating what's there....
I agree. As a vegetarian my options can be limited anyway, so sometimes local cuisine has options that are.... well, let's just say I've tried some interesting options, and taken home some *fantaastic* recipes!

I am predominantly left handed. From what I've learned from BP is some countries are offended by this. If I ever travel to one of these countries I will respect you. The only way I can prevent my self from offending someone is to place my left arm in a sling during my trip.
In Muslim countries, the left arm is considered "dirty" and the right one "clean", now I'm gonna need a Muslim BP to explain it further for me, I grew up in a Muslim country, I was still a kid when we left so this much I remember
It’s about which hand you use to wipe your a$$. Stupid cultural clichè
Load More Replies...Weird outside of the Midwest: saying “ope, sorry”. I didn’t even know I did that until someone pointed it out to me. Weird outside of the U. S.: Lots of things, but one thing I’ve stumbled across a lot is the amount of ice we put in our drinks and the overuse of A/C. Frankly, I find these annoying too because I get cold easily, but I don’t think of it as weird. Just inconvenient.
We Americans love our ice and AC. I'm not going to sweat my butt off in my house when the outside temp is in the 90s f outside. I don't keep it cold but comfortable. Still not giving up my ice, warms drinks tend to be yuck to me.
Especially since so many states get so humid too. It’s not just the heat that gets to you. I wouldn’t be able to give up having an AC
Load More Replies...My mother (a show breeder, she had the #2 dog in the world in her breed) always had the house so freaking cold, I’d close my door and open my window. In summer, that’s how cold. Until a whole litter of puppies died of the cold. Not so cold after that. In her defense, she was having a bad menopause.
Don’t get me wrong, I couldn’t live without A/C. It just seems like most people overdo it. Like, if I had control, I’d just set it to a normal room temp during the summer, not 60 degrees.
That families/parents must pay a fine if they're not sending their children to school or the children are skipping school to often (Like so often that they wouldn't be able to finish it successfully) without a good cause (e.g. illness). In some cities there is a police force to pick up the skipping children (from the streets or at home) and bring them into the school straight to the dean. To not be misunderstood: families that clearly need help, will get help through cps. The system, for sure, isn't perfect. There are to many families slipping through, but the people working in cps do their best. All of that - school, police, cps - is paid for through taxes, so we don't want these taxes getting wasted.
I'm from Italy. I don't absolutely like Soccer
I'm American and these are things that I always hear from people from other countries. - Bathrooms and sinks in the same room. - Also wearing shoes in the house. I understand the reasoning but I wear my shoes in the house occasionally, like when I first get home. I don't immediately take them off sometimes. I don't know. It doesn't feel like that big of a deal but people from other countries act like they're going to gag. - Our drink sizes. - The way we don't care for older family members. Most of us do care -maybe that's not the right way to phrase it. But people from other countries find it weird that we don't always live with them or they find the idea of nursing homes strange. - The way our homes are built. There's a misconception that we build shoddy homes because of the images or videos they see online of destruction in storms. Yes, of course some homes may be cheaply made, and it's usually in poorer area you'll see that. But every state has guidelines for things that are required based on weather severity for that area. Short of digging more than a mile into the earth to brace it, even concrete and braced homes can be destroyed. A lot of homes are extremely well built and what your seeing can sometimes be a lack of understand of the severity of the storm, not the way something is built. Unless you've seen the power that a tornado or hurricane can inflict, you really shouldn't judge. A hurricane is a massive force that destroys small countries. A tornado can leave craters over a mile wide or more. Living in those areas in dangerous but when you're poor, you don't have that many options.
It's easy. Just poop in the bathtub and wash your hands in the toilet, use the sink outside the bathroom for making soup and comb your hair with the stove. You know, like normal people.
Load More Replies...All but the drink sizes could be said of Australia too, though having the sink in the bathroom really depends on the building. Due to the multiculturalism or both countries, it is not uncommon to have multigenerational families in the one house, but there are still many lonely older people in nursing homes too. You spot on about housing too, though less hurricanes (we do get cyclones) and more bushfires and floods.
What countries don't put toilets and sinks in the same room? And which countries are people from that think you don't build your houses properly? Haven't heard that one before.
You must be new to BP. I've been on a couple years and it come sup a lot. "Your silly American paper houses, ha ha". Yeah, well, see how well anything stands up to a Cat 5 hurricane or EF-4 tornado or a six-meter (20ft) high storm surge of ocean just deciding to camp there for a week. *Nothing* beats Mother Nature at that extreme. We had a hard freeze a few months ago and actual slabs of mountainside just cracked apart. If it can destroy bedrock, what chance have houses?! (FYI, my house wasn't even built for earthquakes and stood up to a 6 pointer without cracking a thing. So, yeah, it's not smart ot judge by the shock-value news footage)
Load More Replies...The houses in the US are made mostly of wood. Not brick or concrete.
Are you for real? Yes, we use timber. We have a lot of it. Many homes in Europe are *still* built with wood and plaster. We use shingling of clay, metal and/or asphalt on our roofs, *not* wood. That's insane to do because it rots too easily. I've no idea where your info on US housing comes from, but most of us live in very safe homes that withstand all but weather events that destroy homes *anywhere* ------ brick, stone, wood, or otherwise. And I have seen home sin which sinks are not ins ame room as toilet, but it's fairly rare, usually in older homes where there were no provisions made for plumbing to begin with, etc. No idea where you're from, but please don't assume all about any nation based on limited sources (news, which always shows the worst, for example). And if you can build a house that withstands 350kph winds, good for you. Glad you're filthy rich, good for you.

Load More Replies...Eat chicken fingers with honey dill sauce. My boyfriend and his family in UK think it's super weird. They just never tried it yet. Running across the street, even if it's a marked cross walk. I'm conditioned to believe cars have no humans in them and they will run you down if you don't get off the road quick, because drivers are impatient and don't like to wait for people to cross. Even though the driver's handbook says they have to at all marked and unmarked crosswalks. No lie. I checked. Having to buy alcoholic beverages at a government agency run Liquor Mart and Beer store. Having to show ID to gain entry. May even have to show ID at the counter, again, if you appear that young. Go camping in a tent in the woods. Refugees coming from Syria have been shocked to learn people are willing to do to his voluntarily. But no s**t. They had just left refugee camps to come to live in a safe country and live in a safe, warm, comfortable house. So, it's completely understandable. Go to public school in regular clothes, no uniform. When my daughter was getting ready for school my boyfriend's sister was fascinated she didn't need a uniform like the students in UK do. (Some of these may be local-specific and my own personal experience, and may not refer to all countries.)
When I say run across the road, I mean when it's the right time to cross, but running instead of walking.
Vegemite, fairy bread, and eating our national animal seems to freak people out
I read it as eating our national anthem, and I was both very impressed and very confused.
I have introduced some Americans to Vegemite. Most flee in terror, but some slink back later and ask for another taste. The ones who have grown tired of the sweetness which pervades many, many American foods, and who hunger for a strong taste that isn't chili.
Its white bread with butter covered in sprinkles it’s delicious
Load More Replies...Vegemite: Looks like axle grease, smells bad, tastes worse (say non-Australians), but we're brought up on it from infancy and we love it.
Load More Replies...One evening I was out drinking with a Brit and stopped at a red pedestrian light, even though there was no car in sight. He just looked at me, said: 'You're weird!' and crossed the street. I looked left and right (still no cars anywhere) and followed him, saying 'No, I'm german.'. He just said: 'Yes!'. :)
Honestly, it really depends what type of person you are, more than what nationality, whether you wait for the pedestrian light, or even cross at the crossing in the first place. I always stop, my siblings not so much.
Say "provecho" (bon appetite) to random strangers at cafés/restaurants when you arrive or leave and the others are eating. It evens seems rude not to say so here! (I'm from Mexico)
Eating eggs and bacon for breakfast, and drink milk. Germans and Frenchs thought it was weird.
That’s from people that eat snails, and from people who drink beer out of boots!
Snails in garlic butter sauce is divine. American 59F. Had an ex bf who took me and my husband out for dinner. Snails were on the menu and asked if I could order some, to which he yes, and turned his back while I ate them. A few minutes later, I finished them and he turned back and we were catching up. My husband, not having much input, was kind of playing with the lettuce it had been served on, turning it over with a fork. He suddenly said, “Oh, look, here’s one that crawled away!” My friend promptly left the restaurant and came back about 10 minutes later, heave back. I’d finished and had them take the plate away. He looked so relieved, and off to the rest of the evening!

British eat bacon and eggs for breakfast….along with pork and beans, fried bread, grilled tomatoes and mushrooms and etc. Except for the beans (personal thing), it’s “I’d ask for more, but you’d need a crane to get me out of the chair.”
I might get some Cr*p for this but wearing shoes in the house, I know a lot of people who think wearing shoes in the house is weird and disgusting.
I cannot go without shoes. I have neuropathy in my feet and it’s very painful. Dog or toddler stepping on them, even through shoes sometimes, can hurt badly enough that I fall down. Or just hitting a toe on a furniture leg.
I have a highly sensitive sense of smell (side effect of curse of chronic migraine) and people don't realize how bad their feet are!!! WHEWW!! You gotta wipe your feet before coming into my house but I really don't want to smell your feet when I'd rather be enjoying a visit.
My feet sweat to the point I cannot wear sandals or flip-flops. The sweat causes my feet to slide around in them to the point it's dangerous. I've never known anyone else with that problem.
If your feet are dirty and stink from walking around maybe consider cleaning your floors? If from work, wash your feet when you get home.

I never wear shoes in the house, and when I visit others I will always ask if I should remove the footwear. I'm English in the UK and a fair few of my friends do the same.
Selectively obey traffic rules. In South Africa, we generally obey stop signs (except minibus taxis, aka taxis). We are pretty good at managing broken intersections (no lights), using a rule of first-arrived-first-pull-off, or, if it's unclear, a clockwise rotation. But generally it's pretty anarchic. Especially taxis. I've seen them drive on pavements, cross three lanes perpendicular to change lanes WHILE everyone else is stationery, drive the wrong way up the wrong side of the road, cross solid lines, ignore red, etc., all on one morning work run. Many taxis also have bullet holes from shooting each other. Other drivers are not that bad. Our anarchism extends generally to: orange/red light = slow down, look, go through; solid line = suggestion you don't change lanes; green ahead of you = you can cross left/right if it's clear; pavement = parking spot. https://www.sabcnews.com/sabcnews/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/taxi-shoot-kzn.png
‘We are pretty good at managing broken intersections’ Eskom huh? Eskom is soo annoying, I used to live in SA but I recently to Australia
I go sit in a 90-degree (C) room, naked, with people I've never met. Then one by one we go out, take a swim in a hole some friendly people cut in the frozen sea, then back to sweating side by side with strangers. Nothing could possibly feel better!

Being able to travel 100kilometres or 62 miles for those Americans. In any direction and end up in a different environment. Maybe the beach or the desert somtimes the grasslands or a rainforest. Apparently many tourists think we ride kangaroos to school or walk barefoot in the desert, anyone guess where I live? Some of us have our weekly bbqs’ and Bunnings (our main hardware store) have sausage snagger (sausage sizzles) stands, so we have sausages in Bunnings. We have our unique eco systems and flora and fauna, some of which confuse many many tourists. Well thank you, I’m from australia if you couldn’t guess
I am one of the weird Aussies who doesn't like sausages, so walking past the BBQ at Bunnings always turns my stomach!
There's a lot of different environments here in the States, as well. Different dialects, food, ways of doing things.
Yes, I love all the different culture here
