>It was the quick succession of more than a few rapid edits over the course of several minutes that made me feel that you're over-reacting to the comment.
That's a bizarre conclusion but whatever.
>- Its weird everywhere else in the world to sell firearms in the same store as kids toys, milk and cheese. Weird.
It's a giant department store. They sell everything. By saying it is weird, you are projecting your own biases.
>- Gallon cups have indeed existed in promotions at various fast food outlets in the US, maybe not McDonalds I suppose.
Yeah. Not McDonald's. It's almost like I said that. I also have never seen any fast food restaurant with any promotional cup size approaching anything near a gallon.
>- It's extremely rare to have people pull away from a bowser without checking the hose has been put away when you aren't pre-paying for fuel (i.e. many places around the world). However almost every image and video of it posted to car forums etc are from the United States.
Oh you saw it in some pictures in a car forum? Well I guess that settles it then.
>- The US government is perceived as corrupt to many people in many nations, and the current office is making that perception greater. That is why people can accept that this level of corruption in Baltimore has happened.
Yet the link I posted shows the US, like I said, to be perceived as less corrupt than, e.g., France. And Spain. And Japan. And Portugal. And on and on.
>But these were just lighthearted examples, and I digress.
You aren't being "lighthearted" any more than the people you are parroting who originally made these comments were. You are spreading lies and being hateful. You think you are better than "those people" in America so you spew your hatred on the internet. Except most of what you say is false or based on some other crap you, wait for it, read on the internet.
To the downvoters: I'm just devastated you took some of my internet points away. But thanks for reminding me I'm on r/hackernews. Nice "rebuttal"
