hi we're jonathan and this video is things
that americans do that they don't realize makes obviously american to non-americans
there's probably a more succinct title than that but that's the juice that's facing euthanasia okay
so they might be doing these things subconsciously they might actually be aware that they're doing
these things yeah we're just gonna go through them and it's not right or wrong it's not wrong to be
obviously american it's just if you wanna know how we go oh they're american yeah this is how
we know as shakespeare said for there is nothing neither right nor wrong but thinking makes it so
do you know what i mean that was stunning it's true i mean you can apply that to many things it's
not right or wrong to drink diet coke but thinking makes it so exactly i think it's so right yes i
think it's wrong yeah we just think he makes it so so there you go guys here are some of the things
that americans do yeah that rightfully or wrongly make alarm the others that they're american yeah
number one talking too loudly oh yeah me and my family were eating out in a restaurant and we sat
down my dad got there before us because me and my mom was shopping and he said we got there and he
was like the table over there insufferably loud and it was this family and they were just talking
so loud and then the table the other side just in a restaurant america england in america okay
and then the table on the other side there was two couples they probably had a bit to drink but
they were so loud like they were like maybe like three sets or four sets of tables away and we
could hear everything and it was like yeah and it was just like can you not just use an indoor voice
indoor voices please are you incapable yeah it's in capability my dad's a bit deaf and
he he even he can do an indoor voice yeah not all the time most of the shouts but americans you can
the vibrations the way their mouth moves you can hear more yeah it resonates more than ours
so i think you can't really help it do they sort of hear out for your table and go are they the
mouse house i can't hear anything i don't think they do i gave them evil so i could make eye
contact with one of the women and i just looked her and was like and then you could see like she
like then looked at her because she annoyed me that much i was like sorry i'm in the right hand
i'm right it's not even thinking it makes it so i'm right you're wrong that is so funny
i think what would be really good would be to hear the intricacies of that conversation
and then just leave and be like this is what i would do you just pass them in like dump him yeah
right the next one oh it's sort of linked to the first but it's sharing their innermost thoughts
but loudly so it's like they're just sort of leaned into their friend and they're like i'm
really down at the moment and you're like wow okay hey i think i'll be a private conversation but
yeah for me that wouldn't even be a conversation no i'd just think it no yeah you're suffering
silence silence so the next one is you can tell you're american if you wait to be seated at a
restaurant now i don't fully agree with this okay but this example is saying when they're in paris
like you just walk into a restaurant and you choose a seat and then they come and serve you
okay we do that in pubs but i feel like if we go to a restaurant in the uk you do wait for
a seat i would agree yeah there's more and more places where you just have to wait to be seated
although i've never seated ourselves no in america ever never ever ever and you know one thing that i
noticed when we were in america is that americans are happy to wait for a table if they're like are
the weights an hour there's a queue of americans sat outside waiting an hour to wait for a table
they're like sure and we're like no way if it's a wait over 15 minutes we're not waiting
and i think brits just do not wait wow they've got patience imagine waiting for an unlike when i went
with my parents again went to cheesecake factory we waited for 35 minutes and that felt like an
eternity yeah and i was like it's not worth it i don't want to sit here waiting i'd rather
go somewhere else but then i love cheesecake factories and it's fine i can imagine you would
being really triggered by 35 minute wait and rightly so thinking makes it so why should
you have maybe they just thought and now it's not that bad i'd drive an hour for a starbucks
yeah but we're just like think of all the other things in one hour you could do i think americans
are patient they have patience and we've learned they don't like sitting at the bar
see that's a really good hack if you're british happen to be watching they get to the front of the
queue at the line and they're like oh it's going to be an hour for just say your response i don't
mind sitting at the bar i don't mind bar stalls yeah because americans don't want to sit there
they go come on through and the question whether like where would you like sit and you're like i
don't care just anywhere but because americans go i want a booth or i want by the window or
i want outside or inside whereas we're just like just anywhere just a table and a chair
and we'll be fine yeah i'm like i don't care if the table is this high that high the chair i don't
even floor yeah floor whereas i think americans are more particular about where they want to eat
how they want it done and they're prepared and they're prepared to wait over an hour for that
would you say you're a patient person in life no not at all i've been working on patients but
the annoying thing about patients is that the only way you work on it is powering through impatience
yeah but you can only become patient from being inpatient a lot and then you learn to be patient
yeah so it's really annoying how have you done any work or just well yeah you just learn to like when
you're feeling impatient going it's fine and like talk to yourself and you're like it's no wrong
mini cue it's all right and like you talk to yourself yeah that's all right then instead
of letting yourself get worked up and angry yeah no no no no no no
the next one is saying which state they're from this is so the done thing yeah everyone says
you know i've had people sign off emails jim from north carolina susan
from west virginia yeah yeah whatever and they introduced if we would say to an america like if
so if americans said to us like where are you from i'll go to is england or the uk
but if you ask an american where are you from they never say america or the u.s they say they're
staying they'll be like number 24 don't drive the postcode the zip code the state the turning yeah
whereas sometimes we just want to know are you canadian or are you american yeah so maybe we need
to be more specific with our questions yes where are you from not the state of the country yeah
what country are you from yeah what country are you from weirdly i think americans don't
get offended if we mistake them as canadians but canadians get very offended if we mistake them for
americans it's just such a huge culture shift isn't it well they feel um i would say they're
not that different just a bit more sarcastic yeah canadians are a bit more like they're like a cross
between british english and america britain yeah why did i say britain in english brazilian i said
american and english you know what i mean okay so um what's the next one talking to strangers yeah
well all of this could be punched into one talking to baristas or cashiers and strangers in general
yeah americans are just so friendly that they'll go into deep conversations with like person
scanning your food at the supermarket and that's lovely and that's so nice and if if you're
working if you're a cashier if i'm cashier and someone's chatting to me and the next person's
another conversation before i know it an eight hour shift might go really quickly so i think
that's really good for both parties in a way for like social interaction and stuff but let me tell
you something the most jarring thing happened when we were in america we'd handed back the car
and i encountered my first rude american i had rude sassy assassins fantastic little
piece of work yeah she was a piece of work and i wasn't ready for it because everywhere
everyone's been so nice and i was like excuse me um where do you order the drinks and she went
over there where the huge sign in neon says order here and i was like you weren't like oh you
sad [ __ ] and at that moment
i was ready to fight yeah but i didn't i just turned to joel and went oh my god i know
i was absolutely ready to rip her hair out yeah it's just like that was so also a bit gothic
like not that this adds to the story but she had an attitude yeah she was probably having a
rubbish day or maybe she was just a [ __ ] day in day out maybe she just doesn't belong in america
maybe she needs a job over here yeah she's fit in in the uk get into east london right now
i feel like if that happened to you in the uk you would have then laughed and been like oh yeah yeah
but because it happened in america the land of the polite you were like i was literally i was
like looking at what i could use to hit her yeah i was i would never hit anybody i'm not brave enough
yeah it just knocked me off yeah off center didn't it you just i was like joel i don't like it in
here and it ruined your day it really ruined five minutes yeah it was awful and actually the man who
served us as well he was a bit rude they all were they all were oh you think you're cooked you work
in a brewery yeah i'll have a day off love oh come on come on it's just beer yeah get over it drown
i'll travel without a beer i wish you just drowned in beer oh my god oh anyway so that's okay that's
how jarring it was i can feel the energy has just changed so just tell that i've just remembered
what's happened yeah and it's because all because she told me something obvious yeah
she made you feel this big do you know what i mean yeah if i was an american i'd
have emailed customer service yeah we've got some sort of credit voucher for fifty dollars
yeah but we won't you know what my lawyer will be speaking to you about your
