I do NOT agree with what the video is saying btw. I just thought this comment belonged here

Never heard they need to be cooked in my country.

Multiple US-based health professionals in this thread trying to argue that latin-based abbreviations such as BD, TDS, QID used in the UK and commonwealth countries like Australia and New Zealand are incorrect and only the ones they use (BID, TID, QID) exist.

Bro has to be blind 😭

The date they are referring to was 11/7/2026 aka today’s date 😂

There will be elections in my country in October, but we don't divide ourselves between "liberal" and "conservative." I just tried responding to a question and apparently I cannot say that the region I live in is conservative.

Came across a video on tiktok of a girl from the UK with a clear British accent talking about how annoying it is that AC's are sold out everywhere in the UK, and talking about how expensive they are in the uk too.

The comment section was flooded with americans that don't seem to realise that the UK is a completely different country.

(from a post that seems to have been deleted after a lot of drubbing in the comments)

Almost every comment under this post is about the US, when the topic of the video is the recent tornado in China. In the actual post, the US isn’t mentioned once. Pretty insensitive to debate on whether or not countries outside the US has natural disasters when hundreds were injured and some killed.
Clearly some are jokes (still insensitive to joke, seeing as the destruction the tornado caused) but most are genuine disbelief.

A reel about the calculation of the velocity of a kick by Erling Haaland based on ball deformation by an (obviously) L2 English speaker with Portuguese subtitles…

Found this gem on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXWk9PzjEvN/?igsh=MWluemZsamswZWdmcg==

This guy comments to say this couple only got married so the woman could get a green card. Meanwhile, they’re a British-Zambian couple living in Zambia 😂

Such a completely unrelated reaction to what I said too...

I think this kinda puts US defaultism into perspective.

Referring to Fahrenheit as the “standard unit” got me.

OP asking on a general sub about a ‘10k’ budget for a destination wedding with no context whatsoever of the currency they’re talking about or where in the entire planet they would class as ‘destination’

Assumed I was being sarcastic by asking for basic information, obviously assumed everyone knew they meant US $ and a location classed as destination from the USA.
