      Honestly it would make more sense to think of it the opposite way-the US is unusually huge! There are only 3 countries larger than it out of the almost 200 in the world. If Texas _alone_ were a country, it would still be larger than about 80% of other countries. Smaller is the norm, the US is just really very big!

    Just so it'll be helpful for whoever's producing this.
    You use 'an' if the next word starts with a vowel or vowel sounding word.
    For example, 'an American' but it would be 'a Brit', not 'an Brit' because B is not a vowel, but a consonant.
    'an honour', 'an hour' because the 'h' is silent.

    I personally experienced the opposite for the politeness part.
    I always find American very polite in a way they present things in such a cheerful and positive way. It's really refreshing. Though, when they give compliments, it shows in here too, thus they won't give honest compliments because they don't want to offend anyone.
    As for English people while they have this accent which seems posh, speak "more accurate" English, and carry that "lord image" with them in collective psyche, it would seem they'd be polite but I haven't experienced it at all (except the language). They were honest, and quite crude. I might cross some line here but I think they are very close to French people on that part.
    It's just what I have experienced and seen, but it doesn't mean one is more bad than the other or even that it's a reality for everyone. I love both tbh, they all have unique qualities.

      There are no hard and fast rules, of course, but generally if an American complimented you, they probably meant it. We are typically very straightforward, sometimes to a fault. If someone is being sarcastic, it should be very obvious. If someone is angry, they will likely make it known (unfortunately for everyone around them). Being bold, outgoing and direct are usually seen as desirable qualities. Perhaps as a result, many Americans might not pick up on more subtle language, tone or body language, and our threshold for what's considered brash or rude may be higher than most.

      I think I agree with the part about British people speaking with more bluntness/transparency than Americans. At least, as an American looking at America's current media and popular culture, it wouldn't surprise me if Americans are more prone to avoiding conflict and muddying messages up to make them more palatable. I feel like Americans, myself included, live in a paranoid fantasy, in a way that I bet is at least somewhat unique to America.

    It's strange, when I was young I always viewed the British as stuck up or in a sense "biteing" but after taking a trip to Northern UK and various parts of England I had my expectations split into two parts. One was "these people seem harsh" and "they are delightfuly chatty" I was surprised how bright and friendly the vrits were but at the same time they could be pretty rash and harsh. Found out some time after coming home that that was just their form of humor, so in the end it was all good

Think about fashion trends as they relate to women, particularly back in the 20th century and before. Women had to cover their bodies bc it was seen as being more proper and it supposedly kept men from getting as sexually turned on by them. Rape culture still blames a person’s assault on the way they were dressed. Why? Because it all goes back to the relationship between bodies and sexual repression.

Months of planning, the prom committee finding the theme for the year and planning the decorating, getting asked(or asking), buying the perfect dress, coordinating with your date, ordering flowers, making hair and nail appointments, going to the perfect spot for photos before Grand March, dinner plans and after party plans.

Sock hops, homecoming, prom, there were a ton of dances. I think maybe if you weren't sociable or have friends it would have been a drag but my class was a pretty chill group - Not a ton of bullying, drugs, or violence.
    Also, I like how this girl is such a typical Californian. She's got a Billie Eilish style, and she uses like in every sentence.

There is also the Black Knight (Nathan Garrett) created in 1965 and will be joining the MCU in the near future. The MCU is adding Dane Whitman's Black Knight who originally in the comics was an American however in the MCU character will be British played by the British actor Kit Harington. So chin up knowing that the UK is represented with some cool superheroes in classic and modern comics.
