basically all i know is that the south is full of crazy christian homophobic republicans (except for the major cities), the west and east coast are relatively okay places while i know nothing about the states "in the middle" and north.

i was close to being sent off to north dakota to do a degree in flight control or whatever you call it, but i failed the last test :smith:

is it seriously that bad in many of those places?? i see goons talking a lot about racism in the US, but once they start talking about racism in European countries goons will almost always say that racism is a much worse problem here than in the US.

granted i read D&D a lot, but do not participate in the discussions :v:

Aleuts rock, chummer.

Alaska is secretly the most socialist state, we get checks every year from programs, Native Alaskans and veterans get really good free healthcare, seriously I walked in and saw 3 dentists after a 20 minute wait with no appointment.

im from norway and living in united state of america its good op

but they do a lot of dumb things like when you go to a movie theater they dont assign seats to your ticket so you have to play musical chairs if its a full house with people sitting in the aisles. they will even defend this dumb practice

also their banking, telecoms and most public systems are from the 1970s

Most US movie theaters don't have assigned seats either, though sitting in the aisle is a violation of the fire code so it is not allowed. When it is crowded finding seats can get pretty cutthroat.

But isn't Alaska's patron lady-dude a gun-toting sociopath with poor marksmanship who thinks poors should die of hypothermia in the streets, and that war with Russia is a genuinely good idea for no apparent reason other than proximity?

Some movie chains actually do this. You can just select what seat you want online and reserve it. I know in Minneapolis that's how it went down. Here in Michigan it's every man for himself!

How is American it's own ancestry? At first I thought it meant Native American but American Indian is there so what the gently caress does that mean?

The one thing non-americans will never understand, is how deep love of country and rabid patriotism is within the heart of every American.

Those are the dumb people. It could just say dumb/ignorant, but they went with a political correct naming scheme.

Imagine polling that person:

A: Hi what original country did your family come from?

B: AMERICA!

A: No, I meant before your family came here.

B: AMERICA!

A: So you are Native American?

B: (blankly staring) No!

A: Ok then... American it is there buddy!

Same thing happened to us too. People just basically took great swathes of land for their own. And every town an insular community of racist libertarian fucks.

Only we didn't get a war of independence, a war that for you only originated because financial debts needed to be paid off for wars that only took place to keep you safe anyway. (Typical Americans refusing to pay for their own security, ANYWAY...). Old Blighty kept a tight grip on us criminals after you shoved off. The irony being that our political system is still more democratic than yours, despite us being more racist than you!

Alabama and Mississippi might seem pretty bad if you have never been to Missouri or Ohio.

The south definitely has problems, but we are still miles ahead of the rusty, depressed, meth-addled wasteland that is the middle of this country. At least the south has some culture and history. And great food.
