In the US, being goal oriented is something that is rammed down out throats from every direction. Some people have a very difficult time relating to someone who isn't goal oriented. They even tell you how to set goals and why it's important to set them. It keeps people busy is what it does.

Now watch, my comments have probably touched a few nerves.

Those are large! and 13 dollars for a drink, my god. And I thought Europe is expensive, lol. I don't think many people will use the free refill with that huge drinks haha.

Having been to the US countless times etc, I know how those stereotypes happen, but then again, they are stereotypes.

I wonder if I started a travel group and called it " The Non-stereotype Travel Company " and took people around places in the US that blows stereotypes out of the water. Perhaps a vegetarian tour of Texas??

P London could handle the UK tours, starting with " See some of us have good teeth " tour followed by " Tea, what's that? ".

For Canada??? I'll leave that to you guys.

That is actually a great idea! If only more people could be this open-minded.

The non-stereotype trip to Canada would include a lot of mean people. Of course, I have no idea where you meet rude or mean people in Canada lol. At the US embassy?

Actually, I could show you rude people in Canada quite easily.

First you must pretend you are a Canadian. Canadians are only nice to foreigners, rude to each other.
