They don't actually have rain in huge parts of the US. Even old, shitty cars are clean as a rule.
I was in California for over a week and there literally didn't rain once. It's not natural tbqh.

That's just how it is, I can't explain why they have no sweetened option. Even in the south they do that here though sometimes they have a sweetened option.
Sometimes
>>51912148
>Ask someone how they are
>They start talking about how their day is and how bad things are for them
The fuck? No one cares
>>51912023
What kind of tea do you guys drink?
>>51912308
>American asks how I am
>he doesn't want to hear how I am
The why does he ask?
>>51912346
"How you doin'?"
"Good, you?"
"Good."
"How you doin'?"
"Fine?"
"How you doin'?"
"Eh."
And then it's over. It's an ice breaker, not a goddamn debate topic.
>>51911841
>>Australians walk around in their house barefooted
Yeah; and?
>in fact they walk everywhere outside barefoot.
No, not really. Some people do it if they're making a short trip to the shops or something, but generally that isn't the case.
>>Australians call people who wear shoes tenderfoots and people who wear socks QueerSteers
That is an outright fabrication.
>>51912346
We're not asking how your life is, we're asking how are you right in this moment facing toward me, responding negatively would be like telling someone "Fuck off" instead of "Goodbye"
>>51912378
>ice breaker
>it's generic call/response
>no ice is broken
>people don't actually say how they are
No wonder you people keep shooting up schools when nobody is actually concerned about how you are
>>51912428
kek
>>51912428
>No wonder you people keep shooting up schools when nobody is actually concerned about how you are
Well yeah. Why do you think /r9k/ is so fucked up?
>>51912428
That's not true, if people actually want to know how you are, they'll say something like "Hey man you seem kinda down, everything alright?"
You have to wait for them to ask if you're feeling bad
>>51911841
>>Australians walk around in their house barefooted, in fact they walk everywhere outside barefoot.
Wait Americans don't do this?
>>51912409
>we're asking how are you right in this moment facing toward me
>We're not asking how your life is
These two are intrinsically connected.
>>51912381
Fuck off chang with your jeans and thongs, real aussies do
>american turns the living room TV on
>never watches it
>>51912527
Real Aussies do what, exactly?
>mfw I'm probably whiter than you are
>>51912516
It's just meant to get you to respond nicely, saying you're good just means the person in front of you is okay
>>51912471
>You have to wait for them to ask if you're feeling bad
>have a greeting expressing concern
>it actually doesn't express concern
Why can't you just say Hi, Hello, Good day to you like normal people?
>>51912560
It helps to feel like we're not alone.
>>51912308
I do this. Don't ask If you don't really care fuck you
>>51912339
we have numerous herbal/fruit teas for home medication - anything from diaria to vomiting, or just because they taste good
I know at least 10 by name, but I have to hunt down translations because I don't know the plants name in English
for example mint tea or Tilia tea
>>51912600
>Good day to
>like normal people
Pick one.
>>51912560
My neighbour does this. Granted she's 90 and lives alone
>>51912600
You can do that too
In fact it's perfectly valid to respond to "Hey how are you?" with simply "Hey", I do that all the time, and often people will ask that while still walking past you so you don't even really have time to say "Hey, I'm good"
In fact even paradoxically

>everytiem
>>51912646
We're not fishing for compliments anymore than saying "thanks" and expecting a "you're welcome" or "no problem" is fishing for compliments
>>51912653
Weird. I don't think I've ever had that one happen. I'm about to go to a pub, if I remember to I'll test this out.
>>51912642
>Autism
it depends on the culture, people act like american are the only ones that do it, but it's just that we use different phrases than you to smalltalk (even if you do it more)
>>51912664
>have a question that seems like concern about the individual
>it's actually concern about myself
That's insecure as fuck.
>>51912642
>"Hey how are you?"
>"Eh I'm having a pretty shit day, but otherwise I'm good. Yourself?"
>implying this is autism
>>51912756
But that's perfectly normal
>>51912756
this actually works with how negative we are in Bulgaria, it just develops in a fun conversation focused on complaining abut everithing
a good time
>>51912628
We have those too, you just have to be a woman to drink them
>>51912756
That's normal. Going into detail about why your day is shitty, without being asked for it, is weird.
>Hey how's your day going?
>It's going shitty because...
That's just strange
>>51912628
>hunt down translations because I don't know the plants name in English
Well you could tell us their scientific names e.g., M. balsamea Willd is peppermint.
>>51912793
Men can get away with it if we're stoners. That's pretty much the only way to drink those without getting shit for it.
Almost all of the comments aimed towards Europeans seem normal things to me
>>51912868
Talk about your cultural divides. I don't think I've ever seen a weed smoker here that's into tea. Even women don't do that when smoking here.
>>51912895
I like to think that all of the hippies in Australia get killed by the fauna when they try and "get back to nature."
>>51912895
All the ones I know have some crazy tea collections. I mainly drink plain green tea or some blend that contains cinnamon and cloves.
>European randomly shows up at my door
>Asks if he can come in
>>51912775
Precisely my point.
>>51912791
That is such a healthy thing to do, don't you think? Doesn't matter how bad things are, if you can have have a laugh about it it just makes things are little better.
>>51912814
Exactly. its "How's your day going?", not "Why is your day going the way it is?"
>>51912911
As far as I'm aware, they don't. A lot of them don't even get back to nature, as it were. They just go to Mardi Grass and bitch about the law.
I don't know what it's like in the USA, but here, hippies make up a tiny minority of weed smokers. People from all walks of life do it. White collar, blue collar, unemployed, you name it.
>>51912925
I'll have to try it again some day. I think I had some tea while high about a year or so back. It was alright, but I'd prefer something cold.
>>51912895
I guess it's an eastern thing, I know Russians and Turks don't attach teas to gender roles.
>>51912969
>come on let me in, I'm from Kosovo
>you believe in Kosovo, right?
>europeans don't microwave their cereal
>>51912925

>>51913036
>I'd prefer something cold.
>drinking non-sweet, non-iced tea
>>51913036
I prefer it to be cold, so I just let it steep in the fridge overnight, 4L at a time.
>poortugese comes over
>surprised tap water isn't red
>>51913043
Well, men and women both drink tea here all the time. It just has nothing to do with smoking weed.
>>51911841
>Canadians go to bed with belts on
Is this true?
>>51913123
>>drinking non-sweet, non-iced tea
Pretty much. I usually go for beer, some sort of spirit mixed with a soft drink or just soft drink.
>>51913133
That's a lot of tea.
>>51911980
>rain at least once a week
sounds weird, I'm used to it raining maybe 6-8 times during winter and then not at all from May to October.

Do you also use that handkerchief after pooing in the streets?
>>51911704
Why not just get water straight from the tap? Why would you store it in a jug?
>American asks for a glass of water
>Ask him if he wants anything else
>"Oh, no sugar thanks I'm on a diet"
>>51914044
sugar is clearly referring to you, not actual sugar you nutcase
>>51914074
no sugar thanks
no thanks sugar
>>51914042
Because cold water is better.
