Oh come on. There can't possibly be that many people outside the US right?
Well, there are at least twelve of us
Woah hold your horses there bossman. You and the guy in OPs post. You got a way to go before you can back that claim of "at least" up!
How sure are we that u/colmear isn't just an alt of OP? It could be just OP claiming they don't live in the US!
Your right. I'm such a fool! There's no hope!
Well, you have Mexico, European Mexico and The Surrenders.
whaddaya mean, the united states is the entire world!
hell, look at every alien sighting and you have your proof.
just, yknow, ignore the 7.7 billion other people on the planet
Then how the bloody hell are we supposed to leave?!
you just gotta double think even harder
That's because the rest of us just blame it on CIA weather balloons
Funny, I'm an American and I also blame it on the military industrial complex.
Specifically, fucking planes and now drones.
I have never thought about the alien sighting thing. Are they really all or mostly in the US?
The vast majority. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/ufo-sightings-by-country
One could certainly note that America also spends by far the most on things like stealth bombers and fighters, or that the most common types of sightings oh-so-coincidentally end up matching the profiles of those stealth planes once they become common knowledge.
I don't remember where I read it (this was years ago) but The US had purposely experimented during the cold war with making people think they've seen ufo's to gauge their reactions and to feed the frenzy to make russia think they have more tech than they actually do.
a good 80% easily
There are 3 countries in the world. The United States, Alaska, and Hawaii.
Alaska is up north so it's in Canada you idiot
Isn't Canada a State?
You're thinking the state of seasonal depression
YeS BuT YoU SpEaK EnGlIsH!

You speak English because it's the only language you know.
I speak English because it's the only language you know.
We are not the same.
Why didn't they just say "in all states..." puzzles me. What other states can we be talking about?
Your neighbour, Mexico, has states for one.
Yeah, but no one actually lives there, right? And if they do, they're certainly not on the internet.
All countries are states, and a good handful or so countries are federations which call their largest constituencies states, so Germany for example has states, as does Malaysia, as does Australia.
Edit: just reading now that there's no consensus on what a state is exactly, so, fuck knows.
Arrêtez de parler anglais à ces abrutis... ils s'habituent.
speak american!

Literally DOZENS.
The GOP is actively fighting to raise the voting age too.
What sick fuck drinks vodka coke?
He was 19ish he doesn't know good drinks yet, just knows that vodka gets you drunk and coke helps it go down lol
US states
United states states?
United States states, yeah that makes sense. States within the boundaries of the United States. How else would you say it? If you just say "states" it doesn't necessarily clarify them to be American states but could be ones in other countries.
This isn’t even true in all 50 US States. Bro was getting teased for only knowing only one country…he actually knows zero.
In what states is this not true? The National Minimum Drinking Age Act said that states needed to make the age 21 or else they would lose federal funding. Looks like they all complied from my quick research into it.
Ok, I’m getting some reports about potentially xenophobic comments and insults in this thread. I’d like to remind everyone to be nice and abide by the rules. I’m going to lock the thread now because I’m the only mod and I need to go to sleep. Have a good weekend everyone, and remember, it’s just a stupid post on the internet.
