in America it usually goes down like "how are you?" "good, how are you?" "I'm good" "that's good" even if you're not good

[Lola-reny]

In America it pretty much goes:
How are you?

Good. How are you?

Good.

[benfranklin]

I like this guy. He doesn't judge American's, he just talks about it.

[classclown]

You forgot this
USA: Month/Day/Year
Europe: Day/Month/Year

Try American movie theaters, then you will learn frigid AC.

"Hey, how are you?" "Good, how are you?" "Good" "Good" ... end of conversation.

I am american, but my British friend says it is odd here because you can't turn or look anywhere without seeing a flag, while in most countries, flags are only really noticible on national holidays. Is this true?

[secretsociety]

coke literally pays 8 cents to make 2 liters of soda, so paying two dollars for a cup with free refills is pretty generous

Why US Citizens are fat. (I'm American and I've been to Europe)
- 24hr. stores
- Portion sizes
- free refills
- Food combinations
- Limited vacation days (lots of sitting)
- High sugar diet

[orphic]

Bruh we don't understand our sizes either 😂😂

[notyourtypicalblondiey]

If you think bacon and pancakes are weird, wait till you try chicken and waffles

[evillemike]

I've seen several people doing this kind of comparison video, and the thing that really strikes me is how well these folks speak English. Outstanding.

[lifeyang]

I lived in the USA all my life and never even traveled abroad, so I never knew these things were strange to outsiders. Thx for sharing.

[alexandrk.]

I'm an American and usually if you ask someone "hey, how are you?" it's expected you respond with "I'm good thank you." Or "I'm good, how about you?" Even if you're not feeling well.

[jk-gtdv]

Wow, as an American I didn't realize these things were so out of the ordinary. Thank you for the highly informative video. I hope you will visit again ( so many different climates to choose from) thanks for your video, I am a new subscriber and liked this really interesting take on life in US.

26 DAYS OF VACATION? TWENTY-SIX DAYS?!?!? My mom’s an RN Nurse, and she’s only allowed to take 3 sick days off per YEAR.

[jackkellyattorneyatlaw]

Someone: Hey, how's it going.
American: Good, you?
and that's how it goes 99% of the time

[abigailg]

In America, we want a response to "How are you?", but most people just say something along the lines of "I'm fine, how are you?" It's really just to be polite.

[jojo]

Basically, when responding to "how are you" just say good.

Even if you are dying in the inside.
