This is How the “American Food Section” Looks In Stores In Other Countries

Who knew?!?!

I sure didn’t!

What the hell am I talking about? Well, let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen.

I’m talking about the fact that a lot of other countries out there have whole sections dedicated to American foods in their stores. This is kind of blowing my mind right now!

And, because we aren’t seen as the healthiest folks on the planet, a lot of these American sections are filled with JUNK…which I guess makes sense.

Hey, who are we to argue with these foreign folks? We love to eat stuff that isn’t good for us!

Check out these pics of American food sections overseas.

1. This needs to make its way over here.

I could see this catching on…

2. And here’s a flip side…

We’re practically related, anyway…

3. A true American tradition.

Well, they’re not wrong about it.

4. You gotta love it!

Hey, don’t knock it until you try it.

5. A little taste of home.

When you find yourself across the pond.

6. Oh, now it’s on!

Pass the Lucky Charms!

7. It looks like Myanmar has a pretty good grasp on what we like.

I’m impressed!

8. That’s quite a selection.

What’s your poison?

9. Well, would you look at that!

Isn’t that adorable?

10. Give it all to me!

I’m a glutton for punishment.

11. That’s basically all we eat.

Trust me on this one…

Have you ever encountered “American food” when you’ve been in another country?

If so, tell us about it in the comments.

And share some pics too if you have them!

Managers, You Should Be Careful Before You Send An Employee Home For a “Proper” Shave

A lot of companies that have public-facing or sanitary components also have rules and expectations regarding personal grooming habits. When you sign up to work there, you sign up for pressing your clothes or keeping your hair a certain length et al.

McDonald’s, apparently, likes you to have a neat face.

This kid showed up to work in the kitchen with just a bit of a five o’clock shadow. He was twenty and doesn’t believe it could have been offensive, but anyway his manager asked him to clock out and go home for a “proper” shave.

Another story from years ago at McDonald’s.

I turn up to my shift and am told a few minutes after clocking in that I don’t look presentable.

I worked kitchen and I was about 20 at the time, so after a couple of days of not shaving it could have been a “5pm stub” at most.

I’m told to go home and shave properly for my shift.

He took the manager’s words to heart, staying home long enough for a shower and a shave with the works – his face was perfectly hair-free when he returned (an hour later).

I go. I lived 5 minutes away.

I get in the shower, get a hot towel, shave carefully, I dry it off, put the hot towel on, apply the whole treatment – aftershave, lotion, etc make sure it’s perfect.

I turn up to work about an hour later.

His manager really didn’t have much to say, since having an argument about what was meant by a “proper” shave really wouldn’t have benefitted anyone (and presumably there were Big Macs to be made).

“Where have you been? What took you so long?”

“You told me to go back home and get a proper shave. I hope that’s better. ”

O_O

If you’re curious, no. McDonald’s doesn’t have an official dress code policy.

Dress Code – There was no policy in place that required a clean shave.

It would have meant discriminating against the Muslim employees who for religious reasons often grow long beards, or they would have to treat other employees to a different standard.

The policy was that if your facial hair is long enough you may have to wear hairnets which a lot of the other guys wore at work, but I wasn’t offered that solution, because screw me in particular.

It also helps that this kid was only 20 and didn’t really need the cash for the hour’s pay, and a bonus eff you that the manager had to man his station while he was gone.

Was I still on the clock? – No. I was told to clock out, go home and shave, so I did. The way I see it is I lost an hour at minimum wage, which amounted to about £3.33 after tax since I was under 21, so I lost about a beer’s worth of wages.

It being McDonalds they never schedule more than enough people, more likely just short of enough, so at his own wish my manager had to prep and cover my station for the hour while I was having the shower and shave I probably had to skip in the morning to get to work on time – again at his own wish. As you can imagine, the satisfaction was well worth the “tree fiddy”.

I did not protest, I did not plead for him to give me a hairnet.

I probably didn’t want to go to work to begin with, just had to, because bills.

I probably wished I could just call in sick, so when the manager authorised me to f**k off home for a bit more the guy was doing me a favor.

Ah, to be young and carefree again, right?

I miss being 20. Those were the days.

Some Older People Never Slow Down and Here Are Some Great Examples

Age ain’t nothin’ but a number, my friends!

And believe me when I say that a lot of old-timers out there these days are still going strong, living their best lives, and even doing cooler stuff than people half their age.

That’s why I personally believe that getting older is something to look forward to instead of dreading.

You can always be a kid at heart, whether you’re 10, 50, or 100-years-old.

Enjoy these pics because we think they are pretty inspiring.

If You Cheat on Your Spouse, You Will Suffer the Consequences

Cheating is dirty business. There are plenty of reasons people become unhappy in committed relationships and sure, folks make mistakes, but ongoing affairs have always just smacked of arrogance or cowardice to me. Or both.

This man – a pastor who always answered his phone – was not cheating on his wife when he received a phone call from a woman he didn’t know one night.

In a previous life—before my world came apart about five months ago—I was the solo pastor of a medium-sized church in a large(ish) Southern city. One unhappy side effect of being a solo pastor is that when your phone rings, you answer it even if you don’t recognize the number since you have no idea how important the call may be.

It could be a church member’s grandkid (whom you’ve never met) calling to tell you Miss Bessie has been diagnosed with some horrible disease. Or it could be a church member who just wants to talk your ear off for two hours.

So earlier this evening my phone rings. And since old habits die hard, I answered it.

He was polite but detached at first, figuring that the call had something to do with work.

Me: “Hello?”

Her: “Heeeeeey, what are you up to?”

I want to be clear before I proceed that I don’t recognize this lady’s voice but I just assumed that she was a former church member, member’s kid or grandkid…something. So I was cordial.

Me: “Not much, honestly. I actually just walked through the door with some food. How about you?”

Her: “I’m hanging out with {girl whose name I don’t know}.”

Me: “Great. I’m sorry to have to ask this, but with whom am I speaking? I don’t recognize your voice and I have no idea who {other girl} is.”

It didn’t, and hoo boy, he had stumbled into a circus full of someone else’s rabid monkeys.

Ladies and gentlemen, apparently that was the wrong thing to say.

Her: “Darren, you know who this is! This is Jessie!”

Me: “Well, Miss Jessie, I hate to break this to you but my name isn’t Darren and I don’t know any women named Jessie. I believe you’ve called the wrong number.”

Her: “No I didn’t! This isn’t funny Darren. What happened? Did you leave your ringer on again and you’re worried your wife is going hear us talking?”

Me: “Ma’am, I’m very sorry but now I know you’ve got the wrong number.”

Her: “I want to come over there and tell her all about us and how you’ve been screwing me behind her back for two years. I’m sick of this s*%t.”

Instead of trying to backpedal or to convince the woman that perhaps confronting a sleeping, clueless woman and her crappy husband in the middle of the night, she just sleep one it herself and re-evaluate in the morning.

Cue malicious compliance.

Me: “…you know what, that would be great. By all means, come to my house and wake my wife up and tell her all about our torrid sexual affair.”

Her: “I’m leaving now.” engine cranks in background.

Me: “Okay. See you soon!”

His decision was likely influenced by the fact that he had recently found out that his own wife had been cheating on him for the duration of their marriage, like some kind of sociopath.

He has no regrets, at least not about the phone call.

Five months ago I discovered that my wife of ten years started cheating on me eighteen months into our marriage. She racked up a grand total of 16 affairs in a decade.

Somewhere in my immediate area a man’s wife was just awakened by her husband’s sidepiece banging on the front door. She deserves to know what kind of man she married.

I’m just sorry I can’t be a fly on the wall for the very special episode of the Jerry Springer Show that just started in her driveway.

I have a hard time feeling sorry for this Darren person, though maybe that’s wrong.

Do you think he should have stayed out of business that wasn’t his? Tell us why or why not in the comments!

You Can Combine 4 States That Touch Into a New Country: Which 4 Would You Choose?

I love “what-if” questions – the ones that have no actual consequences or right or wrong answers, but can be fun to think about and answer.

Also, the answers can tell you a lot about a person, I think.

If you’re curious how other people responded, here are 16 replies to the question of what 4 contiguous states would make the best new country.

16. I like the way she thinks.

What is more important than yummy food?

15. Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio

I’m honestly not sure what the reasoning on this one would be…

Image Credit: Ruin My Week

14. I’m ok with that.

Texas needs to be messed with once in a while.

13. Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Arkansas

But she wants to live somewhere else. Ha!

Image Credit: Ruin My Week

12. Decisions are hard.

Then again, this is a game.

11. This person is thinking about access to fresh water.

That’s smart. And of course, New York is the coolest.

Image Credit: Ruin My Week

10. There’s always one anarchist in the bunch.

They make the world go ’round. Or not.

9. More references to the drinking water.

I suppose that’s pretty important.

Image Credit: Ruin My Week

8. Do you think this is a game, sir?

I mean. I guess it pretty much is.

7. There’s always one joker in the bunch.

What would we do without them?

Image Credit: Ruin My Week

6. Poor Michigan.

The Big 10 is really going to miss them.

5. This person is out to make some cash.

It’s the American way.

Image Credit: Ruin My Week

4. Oops.

Still, there’s no need to be that person.

3. I hope they have plans to combat the drought.

And also the electrical grid in Texas.

Image Credit: Ruin My Week

2. Idk if it’s a complete package.

But it’s some kind of package.

1. I’m not sure this is allowed.

You can’t just sneak in a bunch of Canadians.

These replies are really making me think, y’all.

These Things Are Only for Wealthy Pets, Apparently

I’ve never met a dog who seemed particularly picky. Not even about food.

In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever met a dog who was not full-on, b**ls to the walls THRILLED to be eating the exact same bowl of dry food he’d been getting every single day for his entire existence.

They’re really not that difficult to please, is the point. So one might well wonder why a company like Home Concept, which is based in Russia, might offer an entire array of pet beds that are way, way too expensive.

What animal is impressed by these? How is this a thing? Look at these prices (converted to USD.)

(Also I made up all the names because I don’t speak Russian, and I named all the pet models because I like fun.)

Times When Kids Really Did Say the Darndest Things

Kids say the funniest things…sometimes…

Like the time 5-year-old Bindi Irwin met her baby brother Robert, and decided that he should be called Brian “for short.”

Well back in January, feminist author @JessicaValenti tweeted about an incident that happened when her child was about that same age:

It was a great metaphor for life, and it spawned a whole thread of users telling funny things that their own children had said.

A lot of users focused on how children don’t pull punches, sometimes being brutal without even meaning to.

Picture book author Pat Zietlow Miller shared a time when her young daughter innocently cut her to the quick:

And another user shared her child’s response to her own midlife crisis hairdo.

Kids, man. Brutal, and brutally honest.

Sometimes they’re just trying to be helpful though, like when Heidi Hodges’ daughter overruled her little brother’s kindness.

And we all know what it’s like to be seen as the not-fun parent, but I love this user’s response.

I guess it would be way too mean to respond, “I know Dad’s the fun parent, just like your brother is the fun child.”

Yeah, you’re right. Parents have to be the parent, fun or otherwise.

Some of the one-liners parents shared were just hilarious, liked this one from Bonnie Jean:

Use the Force, Luke. Be the armadillo.

I love it.

And you know, it makes sense, because kids just really love animals.

So comparisons to animals are usually a compliment:

Until they try to turn you into one:

Kids, as we all know, also like to eat weird things.

(Let’s hope this isn’t why the 5-year-old wanted to turn her sister into a fish…)

And this kid… The shade.

But I mean, he has a point.

And just… wow.

Weird eating habits aside, sometimes even the best kids will misbehave.

As parents, you just have to teach them how to say they’re sorry.

Even if it makes you want to bust out laughing.

And when life gets them down:

Teach them to look on the bright side.

(This kid must have been friends with @welshlady17’s little girl.)

It’s so true what they say. Kids really do say the darndest things.

What’s something hilarious that a small child in your life has said? Tell us in the comments!
