Americans Are Better At Everything

I had late lunch a short while ago with my buddy from Colorado and his friend visiting from Utah for a fortnight. I instantly knew I wouldn't get along with him, but had to make due. My friend went to the bathroom and I was left with this other guy. I was checking the news in the meantime and read this headline:

"100 cars in pile-up, 5 seriously injured in Kuopio."

This is the biggest and gnarliest pile-up in Finnish history and miraculously no one even died, the last big one was maybe six years ago. I think it's pretty crazy and tell this guy from Utah what happened. His reaction, I swear, was this:

"Psssh! So what, we have way bigger pile-ups like that like...every other week, that's nothing."

REALLY. Is that something to brag about? What the fuck, man.

 
Yo Finaland, ima let you finish but, I just have to say that NYC has the biggest pile ups of all time. Thank you.
 
I think our definitions of better are a little mixed up from what that guy's talking about. seems like the finish are better drivers.. but hey who am I to say that.
 
I constantly argue with this guy from work who is a hard core conservative.

His argument was "The US is the greatest country, and greatest place to live on earth and any disagreement was anti-American."

I though about it for a second, and I only needed two words to destroy his argument. "The South".

 
Americans are awful drivers.
or maybe really good? I don't know. I just know I don't see people texting, putting on makeup, eating, AND finishing homework while driving in other countries.
 
Nah its not americans that are bad drivers. Utah has the fucking horrible drivers. It is true. They do pile them up almost once a week here.
 
We do? How is it that I miss these all of the time? Seriously though, we don't have 100 car pile ups every other week and that guy is a fucking ass clown. Stupid little ignorant shits like that give this country a bad name.
 
Sure, but this guy...

He also had an opinion about the volume of condiments. He asked the waitress to bring him some Tabasco for his salad, and when she brought him a small 50ml one (you don't really see bigger ones around here often) he pretty much shouted at her "What's this? I asked for a BOTTLE of TABASCO, not this!"

My friend does agree that he's a stupid prick, but one of his childhood mates, so..
 
Even better, the strip club was named the "Spearmint Rhino", and if you check out the link, the driver of the monster truck fits every stereotype.

Best headline EVAR.

jk. kid sounds like a douchebag...why would you try to "best" somebody's story when it's a story like that....
he probably has a small ding-a-ling and like unicorns. and he probably hates frank's hot sauce, and if you hate frank's hot sauce you ain't no friend o' mine.
 
Here's a vid of some kids driving by shortly after (I'm guessing kids because they sound like idiots and every other word is "fuck") and by this time a lot of the cars had been towed away.

 
thats nutes. the craziest thing ive seen, is cars on fire, big trucks upside down and what not.

bit just driving by that scene would of been fucked
 
I disagree, while Americans may not be the greatest they are certainly not the worst. I think we can all agree the Chinese cant drive if their life depended on it.
 
The funny thing about the video is the commentary. One of the girls says: "Put that fucking camera away! There could be bodies and shit! It's private, don't fucking film it!"

Then the guy says: "Okay...it's away now! It's away!"

Keeps on filming haha.
 
i dont really see the big deal with that video. that shit has happened a couple times on I-80 near tahoe this winter.

moral of the story: stay in your fucking car when its snowy out and you get into an accident on a highway. people get killed trying to look at the damage to their car.
 
i hate people like that, that have to just one up whatever you say all the time. like my friend, i was telling him how my other buddy got 360 disaster onto the flat down (snowboard), and he's just like "sooo what, brandon cocard can do like 540 on" im just like reallly???
 
hahahahaha

could you imagine living in a town that had 100+ car pileups every week

that would suck so much

that would be ridiculous

 
Vietnamese are crazy drivers. Within a half hour of being in the country, our taxi driver hit a motorcyclist. It was only a nudge but still....
 
Surprised thats all you saw...
A friend of mine flew into 'Saigon' a few years ago and saw bout 8 accidents on the way to the hotel, 3 miles away.
 
When my dad went there he got video of these two mopeders who crashed into each other. Then they just got back on their bikes and sped away.
 
America has pretty shitty drivers. VT fucking sucks to drive in. It's like they know one speed: 35. On the highway, on every road, in their driveways, in parking lots. It makes me facepalm. Then they seem to think that they can pull out whenever the fuck they want, regardless of there being a car coming.
 
Pssshhhtt, you guys dont know nothing about driving until you've driven in Massachusetts
 
wtf are you talking about, have you ever taken a stats class? as long as the study is done properly its totally legit. i understand how the media bends data, but real the objective scientist reports relevant facts, driving style is culture based, its not racist to say that one culture produces drivers that are more reckless. ignorance is ok, but i don't give a shit about your unbacked opinions.
 
Yeah, let's not get into this Race = Driving Ability convo...

I've just never heard or seen anyone (IRL) act like such a complete douchebag and actually brag about something without seemingly even thinking about the topic first.
 
What do you know about driving? NOTHING...
Muchomango and I are originally from THIS mess...
