A few weeks ago (starting 1st of August and ending on the like 15th or 16th), I stayed in 'MERICAAAA, so this is my official review of it (or at least LA and Vegas, cuz that's where we stayed). Uhhh yeah it was cool, obv not quite like the UK, for starters I DONT KNOW HOW YALL CROSS THE FREAKING ROAD BRO HERE IN THE UK THE ROADS ARE LIKE 2 - 4 CARS WIDE AT BEST OVER IN THE US YOU NEED TO GO FULL SPRINT OR SOMETHING WHEN CROSSING THE ROAD IF YOU DONT WANNA GET ISEKAI'D. Uhhh cold stone creamery is OVERPRICED bro my older brother decided to be nice and get ice cream for the two of us (thus, 2 ice creams right?) $27 DOLLARS. YOU COULD BUY LIKE 3 OR 4 TUBS OF BEN AND JERRY'S HERE IN THE UK FOR THAT PRICE. In a similar vein, WHY DO SHOPS LOVE HIDING PRICES IN THE US??? HERE IN THE UK ITS ALWAYS CLEARLY SHOWN HOW MUCH IT COSTS BUT IN THE US THEY LOVE GATEKEEPING IT UNTIL YOURE AT THE TILL, THATS WHY MY OLDER BROTHER SPEND $27 DOLLARS CUZ HE DIDNT KNOW HOW MUCH IT WAS UNTIL THEY HAD ALREADY SERVED IT AND TOLD HIM THE PRICE anyways uh hollywood yeah its cool uh we did a tour in a tour bus, the tour guide was tuff and this streamer my older brother knows painted himself turquoise cosplaying as squidward and ran up to our tour bus and high fived some random guy whilst two other female streamers behind him painted yellow cosplaying spongebob and pink being patrick shouted "SQUIDWARD COME BACK!" I swear I'm not making this up I cant find the clip from the stream but if you click you'll see an image of all three of them. We went to Disneyland for a day and I ate meatloaf for the first time there it was tuff, we stayed long enough to see the fireworks at the end, we then stayed in Vegas for ~a week, we did a tour of it and it was literally just "oh look here we have old casino and here we have new casino and oh wowie zowie if it isnt another casino". I forgot if this was in vegas or LA but we went to golden corral (buffet place) and some guy STOLE MY WAFFLE CUZ I WASNT GUARDING IT when there were like 20 or 30 seconds left on the timer, but NOT ONLY THAT, he then THREW IT AWAY BECAUSE SINCE HE COULDNT BE ASKED TO WAIT THE EXTRA 20 SECONDS THE WAFFLE WASNT FULLY COOKED SO I LOST A WAFFLE FOR NOTHING I mean yeah I made another one but like STILL, we went back to LA for ~a week again and went to legoland, unrelated but WHY IS THERE NO CHEN'S NOODLE HOUSE RESTAURANT IN THE NINJAGO SECTION OF LEGOLAND ITS SUCH A GENIUS IDEA I DONT SEE HOW THEY HAVENT THOUGHT OF IT YET uh we got the apple fries though so yeah, blah blah end of the trip we returned to the UK. Final thoughts? I like 'merica, I mean given the choice I would live in the UK over america but like I wouldnt HATE it if I had to live there.
unorganised thoughts I couldn't find a place to put: the people in the US are actually really nice and stuff, as an outsider most of the stuff I personally saw depicted it as a lawless wasteland where anything and everything goes but in reality they were nice, like 3 people complimented my mom's dress which literally NEVER happens in the uk vro and I was chilling in the hotel pool and some random 10 year old just starts a convo with me like he was a tuff lil guy but again NEVER in the uk, we're all just antisocial ig ;-; WHAT IS UP WITH YALLS MEDICAL ADS LIKE HERE IN THE UK OUR ADS ARE JUST "oh uh garage doors we do that uh life insurance we do that uh 2nd hand tech we do that" IN THE US ITS "BUY THIS MEDICINE THAT DOES SOMETHING IDK SIDE EFFECTS INCLUDE [yellow from deltarune] THOUGHTS" (no joke an ad I saw, my jaw genuinely FELL OPEN IN DISBELIEF) WHY ARE THERE SO MANY INJURY LAWYER BILLBOARDS BRO HERE IN THE UK BILLBOARDS ARE SCARCE MEANWHILE IN THE US EVERYWHERE YOU TURN THERE'S AN INJURY LAWYER YOU COULD STUB YOUR TOE ON THE PAVEMENT AND ITS PAYDAY, maybe its a result of all the [yellow deltarune] thoughts huh WHY ARE YALLS TOILETS SO VIOLENT VRO HERE IN THE UK OUR TOILETS ARE LIKE "ah you want me to flush? My pleasure good sir, fshhhhhhhhh toilet noise toilet noise fshhhhhh" BUT IN THE US ITS LIKE "AH RIGHT YOU WANT ME TO FLUSH ALRIGHT ILL SHOW YOU A FLUSH GRRR FLUSHHHHHHH ANGRY TOILET NOISE ANGRY TOILET NOISE FLUSHHHHHH"
