Yes, and not even that stands. Every language you have, we have here as well. Just because English is our primary language doesn't mean everyone here speaks it, either. Is it so hard to believe a nation of immigrants from around the globe is somehow more culturally diverse than Europe? Tell me where you're from and I'll take you to a community here that has everything you have there down to the floor tiles.
Dang...6 day old response and I just got the notification. Sorry!
They are not tiny by comparison, which is what I'm trying to convey. For one, we have every culture in the world fully represented here across multiple regions. If that isn't enough to convince you, take a trip that includes maybe LA, Seattle, Idaho, Minnesota or anything adjacent, NYC, south Florida, Alabama or Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas. I doubt this will convince you, but I have to at least try. It really bothers me when people say shit like "Americans are x," completely discounting the fact that we are a federation of 50 different countries, each with it's own unique laws and cultures.

I hate this.
You aren't arguing. You're just saying "nuh uh" and "ur stupid". Well, you got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.
Naw, that's more like LA vs SF when talking about Californians. Different beliefs, social behavior, dialects, history, architecture, etc.
You guys really need to get away from lumping Americans in the same bin in conversation. The US is huge and covers more diverse cultures in a single state than most people understand. We're friends with Europeans, regardless of what country you're from. We love you guys! Stop falling victim to propaganda and remember that we are allies.
Cool. So you resort to insults and unsupported denial as your strongest arguments. You got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.
If you say so. Doesn't help that you jumped straight to calling me stupid for trying to tell you how it is. You don't bother arguing because you don't know what you're talking about to begin with. Go back to reddit. You fit in better there.
It isn't bullshit. I don't what else to tell you. 50 states, each with their own cultures and dialects. If you don't want to believe it, that's your business, but that's the way it is.
Kinda like when people lump California and Alabama together when talking about Americans. Annoying, isn't it?
Yeah, and what I was saying is it's always been that way since the first search engines started popping up.
C'mon now. "Laptop monitor turn off" has never generated a good result, even in the before time. I share the question: what are these people searching for that Google is generally yielding worse results than other engines? For anything sysadmin, IT-related, or any sort of troubleshooting, I've always needed to be creative to get to the good stuff.
It is.
This one time, I got to have my femur cut mostly through with a saw then slowly bent (did you know bones are viscous?) open and filled in with bone spackle then bolted together with a plate at screws, which was unpleasant.
I can only speak for myself, but it wasn't so much the line as the hand-waving that came with it. It was more that I found the line relatable, but you're right about it being appropriate for the scene.
It's OKAY to say no.
