Yeah, and I was pointing out that it isn’t just a terminology difference, which is what was being discussed here.

For everyone downvoting me, an American CV is different from a standard British CV or an American resume

That’s a different thing

All the paintings look like someone just cranked up random photoshop filters

The street sort of counts too. Licensing requires them to stop for accidents, etc

And I meant that they were still making food spicy hot

They had pepper (actual, not chili).

Here’s how the creation of the graphic went:

• Create a binary
• Ignore vast majority (of people working with subject)
• slap together chart, cherrypicking
• Gloat

Spanish in other places, too—piña colada, anyone?

The takeaway here is, the rest of the world uses different words than the continents where it comes from

My cousin was given his mother’s maiden name as a middle name when he joined the navy

Did you switch the keycaps for your r’s and t’s?

Wouldn’t authentic house music be from Chicago and European be derivative?

The Upper Peninsula of Michigan and up by Buffalo, NY get some serious snow

I’m willing to bet prohibitively expensive insurance.

Just offering this as a possibility

I get all cooking, history, and movie reviews: Max Miller, Red Letter Media, Behind the Bastards, and four-hour history/archaeology documentaries

Ah, right. I completely overlooked that. Since it was such a low number, I thought it might be a numbered source
