What is your opinion on the United Kingdom?

[antmaril]

Do any of you on this thread really care that much what other people are wearing? I could care less.

Not really. Just answering the question.

 

[Beach Bunny]

Pretty much all of them

 

[EMom]

Men's suits which are super tight. with skinny legs that are too short. They look like Pee-wee Herman.

I was a social worker for a while… I was eager to get out of it as soon as I could find something else.

It’s like under 3 hours away but I guess the last time I went was back in 2017.

These poofy peasant tops. I grew up watching little house on the prairie and have no desire to cosplay it. My teen DD wears high black socks when white cricks. To me, it’s awful, but she will tell you it’s on trend, so what do I know?

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

I remember candy bars

From ancestry.com I believe it was English/Western European, Scottish, Irish, and Norwegian. They do change it about every year though, and call it an update lol

 

[Beach Bunny]

Worthless wrapping paper and equally worthless magazine subscriptions

The students got to sell the milk cartons at lunch time. View attachment 579958

How did you get in to it?

The selection of delicacies one encounters at the Tarjay snack counter are highly underrated

Chicken cooked medium rare is the best!

Unless you want a raging case of salmonella, I suggest you cook your chicken to the appropriate safe temperature.

Same goes for the previous poster who likes undercooked burgers. E. coli is not your friend!

El Tri fans when Mexico is playing the Stars and Stripes in soccer. If you watch the USA vs Mexico on Sunday, EL Tri fans will try to make fun of everything American. It’s all in good fun though.

Really? Everyone I know thinks Corona is bland and sometimes skunk tasting. Clear bottles aren't very good for blocking out the light that affects the taste. There more flavor from the lemon or lime squeeze than anything else. Someone explained to me that Corona is the #1 selling beer in Mexico because it's cheap. So cheap that all-inclusive resorts in Mexico would always be handing them out to guests, who would have good memories.

But yeah there's better beer from Mexico. Even craft brews.

Meat color doesn't always correlate with whether or not it's safe to eat. Pink insides can actually be safe to eat as long as the temperature reaches a certain range.

OK - as someone from an area where this might be considered sacrilege, organic doesn't necessarily taste any better and isn't necessarily any safer than conventional meat or produce.

Women's dresses seem to be roughly 99% sleeveless, at least when I go dress shopping anyway. Sleeveless does not look good on me. I can see the value in some sleeveless-especially in hot weather, for some. I just wish there was more variety for those of us that do not want sleeveless.

I don’t know if you follow soccer, but El Tri fans are extremely nationalistic about Mexico and will defend anything cultural to Mexico. Even low quality beer. USMNT fans are just used to it, so we just ignore it. If you see social media or watch the game Sunday, you’ll see how much intense rivalry there is between the two fanbases. But, again, it’s just part of the sport. Hoping for a USA win though.

I don't know of anyone of Mexican ancestry who would say that Corona is particularly good beer. It's not garbage, but it has its place.

As for that, the one thing I remember was when Wells Fargo hired Landon Donovan to do this:

Not a good look.

100% white British for myself

Did you really just say that?
Psst. You said the quiet part out loud

 

[sparky68]

I mean, technically, didn't everybody come from Africa? Or did that theory change? It's been a long time since I've been in school.

We all c

I'm Welsh/Irish with a bit of Portuguese for fun.
At least that is what my recent ancestors were. We consider ourselves American.

The best part of being an American used to be it being ok to say you were Irish or German without people freakin' out. It's ok, no one is going to strip your US citizenship cause you say you are Irish, etc.
