owes everyone money / spends 800 billion on badass helicopters
A Scumbag America2 post.
Your American colleague refuses to learn metric, on principle. On Saturday he runs a 5K and celebrates with a two-litre bottle of Coke. Nobody mentions it. Your cousin calls it the World Series. You ask which countries are in it. He names a team from Toronto and changes the subject to hot dogs. On a walking tour of Boston the guide describes, with real passion, how they threw all the tea into the harbour. The tour ends at a coffee shop. The menu says $12. The bill says $19. Tax wasn't on the menu, the tip is 22 percent and the waiter has been calling you "buddy". Freedom, it turns out, comes with a service charge. **Why it caught on:** the brown fur hat from Scumbag Steve marks whoever is behaving badly, and here it sits on a map of the United States in stars and stripes. Everyone has an opinion about America, Americans included, and the hat turns any of them into a punchline.
