Unpopular opinions

@UnTucked:

Possibly a VERY unpopular opinion:

Now having lived in England for 8 months, I have fully decided that Americans perfected the English language, and Brits are totally lost, lol! And, I'm not even talking about the slang, lol

Any given day when I go somewhere, I say "Huh?", "What?!", or "I'm sorry… I just can't make out what you are saying." at least once...

But, not a single British person has had an issue with understanding me.

I dunno, there are dialects in the US that are cringeworthy, like the Boston accent or New York accents.

I kinda like Southern accents. If we're talking Cajun though i'd need a translator

but to add to your comment, I occasionally have a hard time understanding Scottish

The accents in Boston movies are annoying.And then there are so many subtle variants of the accent in and around Boston . Having heard it most of my life I actually like them.

It was 19C° today and already bordering on uncomfortable for me… If it wasn't for all the cheap beer here, both local and imported, I honestly would've moved to Denmark or Norway by now...

5C in the shade today, gentlemen. What that is in the antiquated system left to the Americas by their colonial taskmasters, I couldn't tell you.

That's 136F, approximately.  Depends on if you round up or not.

Also agree.  When it starts warming up I just accept the fact that everyday I'm going to be sweating my ass off anytime I go outside.  Not to mention commuting to/from work using public transit.

Not me, as everyday is a good day.  I'd live five years in Siem Reap before five months in Pittsburgh.
