All societies have their own strange idiosyncracies which insiders can't see, what is America's?

But i wonder how much of the good stuff gets exported from America. I remember seeing Sam Adams on a menu in Milan once but does anyone know if the other craft brewerys export? (e.g. sierra nevada, dogfish)

I saw Victory Brewing's limited edition seasonal release in a bar in Vienna Austria. Plus they had two of their regular release beers. You have to go to a craft bar in Europe to see them, just like you normally would here. Although here in the States you can find them all over the place in the past couple years.

I think I also saw Stone IPA at a bar in Prague. But there is no place in the world where I can get as good of a selection as cheap as I can in the States, and I've been most everywhere. Within 10 minutes of my house, I have 15 or more places with craft beer. The creativity and selection that we have for craft beer is unmatched anywhere. The US is the beer capital of the world now.

Is France really hated in the USA ?

Replying to Britredditor · Or world war I. Why does everyone forget that they were even later to WWI?

To be fair, Archduke Ferdinand's assassination was not really at the top of our list of concerns at the time!

A friend of mine living on minimum wage recently waited in line for an iPhone 5, yet is so destitute that her 18-month old has been fed mostly Ramen and Cheetos for the past year. When have you seen young parenting go horribly, horribly wrong?

Police of Reddit; what is your best "Nope, not worth it" story.

Replying to Xaliver · seriously? This is their job. Why are they so goddamn lazy- drunk drivers are serious dangers. At least the chicago guy had an excuse other than that it was too much bother.

It's current policy in Chicago to not respond to non-violent crimes. There are actually signs in certain parts of the city. Too much violent crime and not enough police to handle it.
