My question is which temperature do you consider as cold and what hot in your country?
Well in Texas some of us are wimps. Hot is around June, when it's 90F - 115F (32C - 46C) and around now, november or late october when it just hits below 60F (15C and below). 60 is already quite cold to some of us, idk, i heard some people get VERY low in temperature, but a lot of us complain about it being a little chilly, including myself.
However on the internet I know they're a cast of snowflakes ranging from people like you to people like everyone else.
I don't know if i should take offense or not, people like me or like everyone else... lol am I bad xD (Jk btw im not offended)
That man is an inadequate representative. Not because he said much that was wrong, but he looked like a complete dickhead.
That's alright, it was pretty cool to hear, i knew some would be a bit inadequate, but you know, you could always tell us some of the things that were wrong c:
Whenever we got something that we considered a bad grade on a test, we used to make ourselves feel better by saying that Americans probably got C's all the time.
Not gonna lie, a lot of us who arent A students, are happy for C's. I struggle in school, so we get C's we're like "Alright cool! Atleast i'm passing!" I think that was the first step into our laziness... When we were younger we congratulated C's as passing and okay! So now, a lot of students aim to make a C, and not an A or B.
My question:
Are politics are good in your country and why?
I say no, we have a democratic system as you know, but a big issue with our country is Money and Religion.
We are quite greedy honestly, a lot of stuff we go over is over looked if it Costs too much money, or if they think that people wont have to work at all for it. Like free health care, we don't want to allow that, we wont make any money off of it, so everyone has to pay for medicals, even things like childbirth, car accidents, random violence, all of it comes with a bill later on. They save your life, and kill your wallet.
We also haven't really seperated Church from law. Most people would like everyone to be Christian or Catholic, some just want everyone to have atleast a god to believe in. And in court, you swear that you'll tell the truth by god. And some people may not like that because they may not be religious or they may not be talking about their god.
Some people want to take God out of the pledge, but then again, america was founded on christianity so that would be a horrible thing to do.
These little things arent HUGE right now, but do cause some contrversy.
AND, a big one right now, Gay marriage. We dun like that shit. (I do though xD)
Right now our President is trying to get Gay Marriage legalized, but our country doesnt like it because the LGBT makes up about 10% of us. So the other 90% doesn't like it. Some by religious standards, and some by moral standards. And being caught in the middle of that as a bisexual male, has me scared sometimes because people die and get beat up and thrown out of houses sometimes for this stuff. And living in the bible belt, if you go against god, you go against Murica.
I also think that we are full of ourselves sometimes, we want to be the chief and commander of every country, which causes some issues sometimes.
This is all from my point of view as a SR in highschool, if i'm wrong i'm sorry. Lol
Q:
How is the military involved in your country?
Do they ask for recruits, or are you forced?
Do you have one?
Do they make themselves known, or do they sit back until something happens?
