It's no secret that Americans do things a little differently from the rest of the world. But, as the first European colony to win independence, they've had lots of time to form the unique identity we associate with them today. So let's take a few moments to celebrate all the quirky and ridiculous little things that make the USA what it is, even if we still fail to understand them.
When the United States broke away from the rest of the European world in 1783 following the American Revolutionary War, a cultural shift began that is still developing today. Though the lands we now know as America mostly share a history of British occupation, tea and crumpets have long been replaced by coffee and donuts. America has given the world countless gifts, such as rock music, groundbreaking cinema, and New York City - in fact, it's probably the most culturally recognizable place on Earth. Still, for those of us on the outside looking in, the United States sometimes seems like a bit of a circus.
Scroll down to see some of America's funniest moments on Tumblr and how the rest of the world reacted. Don't take it personally, though - we've still got love for Yankee Land! (h/t)

At 18 you can be married, drive a car, go into huge debt, vote, and die for your country but you're not responsible enough to buy beer. *Face Palm*
I guess these things give digestion problems and obesity just from looking at them.
I'm sure the toilette looks like the typical gore American horror film after eating even one of this. They still might be tasty, but I wouldn't be brave enough. You gotta have the guts for this.

that's remember me of the kfc double down . i try it once... my god the 3-4 hours that follow was hard for me Capture-59...51c400.jpg 
I'm from the New York area and I wouldn't eat these if I saw one. I can't imagine sweet and salty together. Yuck.
sweet and savoury are delicious together, but this is a diabetic abomination

Hey, don't knock it 'til you try it, they say. While I realize that these cannot hope to approach the delectability of a pork jelly meatpie, these, with the juxtaposition of the sweet donuts and the savory beef being buffered by the cheese and augmented by the salty bacon. I, for one, would eat the f**k outta that s**t.
just one of the things wrong with america(assuming its from here)...just because you can do something, doesn't mean that you should.
As an American, I can confirm that these look utterly disgusting and that goes for ALOT of 'American foods'.
I can't believe some people look at those things and be tempted to eat it. It looks like something that was half-digested and thrown up by an alien.
I just trough up a bit...this mix is disgusting for me I am sorry glazed donut bacon cheeseburgers lovers....
You guys should check out Glasgow fried (insert whatever you want here). The US ain't got nothing on Scotland... :-D
I think that if you agree to eat more than one of these your are at the point of no return.
Bearing in mind when that this is coming from a person who put a full English breakfast in a taco shell.

Oh my god, you guys should look up which countries rely overwhelmingly on nuclear power. The US is actually way behind many countries in Europe!
I'm not sure if I should laugh at the joke or cry because this guy is serious....
Except that a bunch of Americans hate Bill for being and atheist and because he tells them that science is correct instead of the BAHBLE.

I find it hilarious that there are some offended Americans in the comments. :D
You can always count on some Americans believing, still, that this is the best USA #1 country in the world and getting upset when someone dares to believe otherwise.

Easily half of the U.S. agrees with you, Hayley. Unfortunately, the lower the IQ here, the more vocal they are, and the more convinced that they are always right, and everyone who disagrees is wrong.

jeez. it is 2:15 in the morning and i am sitting in the dark loudly cackling to myself at these instead of going to bed
I'm sorry, maybe I missed something important, but how did the comments zone in a post about a website "roasting" Americans turn into a war zone? I mean, it's meant to be funny, and not a political thing. If you're offended, chances are you're pretty fired up about politics right now. So please, take your angry energy elsewhere. Thanks.
y'all. the best thing about America is that whenever you hear an "eagle scream" it's not an eagle. it's a red-tailed hawk. eagles sound like ridiculous clucking nonsense.
Your momma's a red-tailed hawk, after last night. ;P

As an American id like to say that I find these all hilarious, the more “offensive” the funnier😂
The U.S. may not be the best place to live, but it is still the richest and most powerful nation in the world, by far. I can see how it could be easy to get jealous.
i live in ireland and ireland is actually richer. I dont know how lad. sorry to say boy.

I found this so funny 😂😂😂 MY fellow Americans that got offended need to lighten up 😂
This is all true haha only one think missing The rest of the world 2+2=4 USA 2+2= 23 The rest of the world haha dumb a*s
2+2= 22 in the U.S.A. At least that is what I was taught in our public schools.
Load More Replies... That one moment someone calls you a Brit because you don’t act like an American. Anyway, this is unfortunately true for 98% of Americans at least. People get so strung up on the “America First” ideology and believe that it’s the best country ever. Canada, taking into consideration how pacifistic the country seems to be, has beaten the US in combat before. That speaks volumes. The US never was and frankly will probably never be the best.
don't like America move to a 3rd world country see how you like it there
I am American, and I find this hilarious!!! I love this, and it is so true. Ahh, I miss watching Bill Nye.
What's the difference between america and yogurt, yogurt will develop a culture if u leave it alone for 200 years lmao that s**t was awesome.
The only thing that upset me is the fact that they had to bring an animal into this. Eagles are amazing and beautiful even if the people in my country are the complete opposite.
I would be insulted... If these weren't true. Sadly, pathetically...true.
So true and funny. I'm Canadian and being neighbours with THAT is like taking care of your yard house, making it pretty and welcoming to everyone and your neighbours is a junkyard with xenophobic and homophobic signs everywhere that yell at everyone. Make your f*****g wall but not just between 'murica and mexico but all around, you don't know from where the enemy will come ! ( And we just have to fill the giant bowl with water after that to make the world a better place to live )
I love this post.... But when these ignorant SOB's who don't even know what the Alamo is and thinks they mean alimony... JESUS F*****G CHRIST!!! No wonder the world laughs at us. I suck at math, but I know who fought in the American Civil War, hell, a kid in France knows who fought in the American civil war. IT WAS OURSELVES for those of you scratching you heads. I know I just pissed a s**t load of you off. GOOD!! AND NO, the siege of the Alamo was not during the Civil War. Know who John Wayne is? Look it up. I'm a 34 year old heterosexual female. Suck it!!!!
umm. lad. you may of fought England. But us IRISH people battered the entirety of Britain.

This is sheer and willful ignorance. To think that anyone criticizing the US has to be envious is nothing short of stupid.

I find it interesting that regressive conservatives claim to be the party of patriotism, yet they helped elect a guy running a campaign of how much this country sucks.
