    "are you alright?"

    They make you pay extra for plastic bags to encourage you to bring your own bag to waste less plastic

    Lmao I live in the Uk and all of this is obviously perfectly normal to me. Some things I’m literally like “what do you have then if that’s not normal?”

    What country doesn't sell alcohol in their grocery stores?!? They're available even in convenience stores.

    British person here, not about culture shock but to mention , don't forget the amount of pubs on one street in public shopping areas. Damn, even if it's a tiny town there will be more then 40 pubs

    They sell alcohol in grocery stores in America. It just depends on what state you’re in.

    Idk where she comes from but England being cold is a common misconception, it’s not even one of the coldest in Europe, the temperature in winter is the same temperature as most of Spain, most of Italy, France and it’s warmer than Germany, every country above it and many Eastern European countries.
    Chicago and New York have hit -30 Celsius btw. When we say the weather is bad we mean it’s rainy and cloudy, and when other European countries get hot, we just get warm

    One of my culture shocks when I moved from uk to Norway (I was in London) was that they don’t understand what “you’re such a donut” means and also they have never ever said “you alright”

    A lot of Americans know or can at least comprehend what Brits mean by saying “you alright” most the time lol.
    Yes, you get a few who take it to another level where the American is offended by it and questions it a bit but it’s not serious…. 🤷🏻‍♀️
