Non-Americans are sharing the things Americans do that really freaks them out – 19 weirdest
There are two types of countries in the western world. There is the United States … and then there is everywhere else.
A slight exaggeration, obviously, but stick with us because it does serve the purpose of introducing this tweet which went viral after @stylenat_ asked this.

Yes, it’s time once again to return to the well signposted ‘Americans! WTF?’
And these 19 people surely put it best.

There’s a lot, but the most baffling is assuming that American is the default setting of the world. Confidently coming into discussions like “um y’all are underage drinking at 19” or what have you. No other country does this https://t.co/3iyXPmSTn2

Probably how loud they are in a public setting. Whenever we’re on vacation you can always tell who’s American. It’s like they want you to listen to their conversations
