... does water have an expiration date...

...can you buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight...

...can you find a handicapped parking spot in front of a skating rink...

...do they define the world politics so well: Poli being Latin for "many" and "tics" meaning bloodsucking creatures...

...do people try to establish laws limiting speeding but won't buy a car that can't go over 100 m.p.h...

...do people order a double chessburger, fries, and a diet Coke...

But no doubt, America does have problems with obesity.

I say it is bull because many of those things 'only Americans' do, europeans do as well.

And statistics have shown that America has one of the highest percentage of Obesity per person compared with other countries.

I have lived in both, whereas you live in Iran. Since you are a minor and you don't know any better, there isn't any reason to get upset with your remarks. One day, if the opportunity arises, you should make the journey and visit America.

P.S. I've lived in Europe. How would you know all of that is true about America if you haven't lived there?

I was replying to abejnood. He responded to you by saying you live in Europe so how would you know, so I, someone who is from America, responded by cutting and pasting your exact message (which is 100% true) and sending it back to him. Kind of a joke.
