I always found the unwalkable anti-commune infrastructure to be cannibalizing but will probably not have the chance to migrate. It seems some of you with solid careers have considered going to other countries, why haven't you?
I love USA. I don't leave because it's the best country on the face of the Earth.
AAAAMEERICAA, FUCK YEAH!
Also,, eating blueberry pancakes at my local diner is probably the best experience one can have in this world. I rank it before sex with aliens, and sex with aliens is pretty amazing. The pancakes are that good.
All this whining about infrastructure is irelevant. I mean, how many countries are there where you go to a local karaoke bar, get fucked up drunk, mount a mechanical bull, trip, hit your face on the bull, lose your teeth, sue the local bar, and become a millionaire thanks to the legal system?
....and I'm not even American. Trust me, I've travelled the world, there's no place like USA.
I've left for trips anyway, but that shit's expensive. Temples in other countries put US churches to shame.
It was pretty eye opening out there. If anything traveling gave me a further appreciation for home over things I took for granted over it, like it's trash and recycling program.

You have to sign a waiver to ride the bull, you can't sue if you get hurt.

Does the waiver specifically say you can lose your teeth? "Get hurt" is awfully unspecific.A bit like how I wouldn't understand that you can choke on plastic bags if it said "you can get hurt" instead of "warning: Use at your own peril, you might choke if your IQ is below 50." I feel like I'm not being informed well enough.
I'd still sue, to be safe. No harm in it right?
I mean that lady sued McDonalds because the coffee cup didn't say the coffee was hot and won. Maybe they should start making people sign waivers at restaurants too? What if you choke on one of those french fries..
I actually tried to find a mechanical bull riding place when I was in Ohio, after my visit to meet with Tryptamine ended up not working out. After visiting one of these arcade game bars they told me to go to the outskirts of the city because there were no mechanical bulls in the city area. So I went there, but to my dismay they had deconstructed the bull and told me that they used to have a mechanical bull but had to take it down because some dumb tourist fucked up on it and broke their nose, and they were afraid of legal action. So.no mechanical bulls in Ohio, except for those party bull places and apparently one super racist western bar where they assume every black person smokes weed so they kick them out. Lol.
But at least you can get shitfaced and throw axes in an axe throwing bar. Thank God.

The McDonald’s coffee thing she mostly won because everyone felt bad for her and her severely damaged vagina. I actually find the other McDonald’s lawsuit to be considerably more ridiculous.

800,000 because of a chicken McNugget burn? Lol.
I hear these crazy US lawyers take a percentage fraction of the winnings so they always try to sue big. It's a perfect system, love it. So chaotic and ridden with errors and ways to exploit technicalities. It's almost like they nominated an autist to design the legal system, just to troll the world and make life interesting.
People think we're sophisticated, because we have all this technology, but then you realize that the world politics and economy is run using Microsoft excel and the next leader is chosen based on a chicken cage fight between Joe and Dick, cause thats what the custom was 150 years ago. Fuck my life.
But seriously though, there's no country better than the USA. Fuck other countries, they're boring as hell.

That coffee was well beyond a reasonable temperature for food to be served. She had 3rd degree burns and lost all the tissue down to the bone on her pelvis and both upper legs. She was in the ICU for a year and McDonald's slandered her to make themselves look better. That analogy isn't even in the same stratosphere.
She only even sued for the cost of medical bills because her family didn't have the hundreds of thousands of dollars the procedures cost to literally save her life after McDonald's melted half of the flesh off of her skeleton.
