None in particular, I want my US friends to be able to escape persecution and be here where they're safe

Like, a Colombian, or an Argentinian or a Costa Rican?

Honestly, all the time. They're awesome folk!

when there is a door that is locked but it opens when someone fits the american-shaped hole next to it perfectly

[-] Daft_ish@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 days ago

For reference

Would that imaginary hole-shaped american come up and anxiously go "that's my hole ! it was made for me !" ?

When I can't find the oil I brought a few months ago.

I'm somehow forced into a couple's hotdog eating contest.

I was gonna say pie eating contest.

Trying to figure out if the mesquite smoked brisket served anywhere that isn't Texas is worth it?

Urgently needing to get rid of a purloined crate of Ozempic while the po-po is beating down the door and some dickhead clogged up the toilet?

Dunno really.

American, willing to be your brisket judge. Tex-mex too.

[-] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 2 points 1 day ago

Nice try buddy, but if I'm paying for brisket, you better believe I'm going to be the one eating it. On the other hand... I'm Danish and the Tex-Mex around these parts is - well - I would pay you for that. Acting as a food taster deserves fair remuneration. And hazard pay.

This question has me bside myself. I haven't lived there in more than a decade, though, so not sure if I count anymore. I was trying a joke and realized that I am, at least technically, American and had to stop, heh.

Needing to track a wild animal, picking medicinal plants, sending a smoke signal, building a wikiup, etc. the possibilities are numerous; although not sure all of these ancestral skills survived very well to this day.
