    It’s also that it’s legitimately unusual to travel to another country more than once or twice before you’re an adult because of the geography.

      It’s also extremely expensive and honestly most of us don’t get enough PTO to do that really. Shitposting online is cheap and easily distracts from how Americans work more hours on average than even Japan.

      But it’s always ironic to see people upset Americans don’t understand other nationalities while also not understanding why we’re like this.
