It's just gross and nasty to wear your shoes in the house that you wear on the streets, you don't know what the hell you have walked in and then track it onto you floors of your home.I thought everyone had house slippers that they change at the door onto with a can of lysol spray.

to the seperate schools: whats way more important here is that you try to form classes of children that learn at the same pace. If the disparity between the learning pace of children is too big you will never be able to educate without having either bored kids, or kids that cant keep up or both. when it comes to digital payment, its not that we're afraid.. we just understand that the less we use cash the faster they'll get rid of it.

Greetings to Schwäbisch Hall. Used to live there from 2010 to 2017.

Card payments! hahaha I'm laughing if you go to the grocery and have no Cash inside your pocket then they have guaranteed a collapse on there electronic cash-register (network fail)! I pay all by Card but if you don't have exact or more the Cash inside your pocket I bet the Electronic payment is not working on the counter! They have then a massive problem if you don't have the money in cash! Film "Wired Science" interchanged to "Lisa der Helle Wahnsinn" - I'm asking me why? - What we don't understand is why Americans have the toilette in the same room where the shower stand? If one is under the shower and the other go to the toilette this is not nice for the person under the shower - we have that separate! May your noses are deaf. Haha About the smoking I think if American Tobacco don't export there Cigarettes and make Billions after the WW2 to Germany then you don't have the problem right now! US cars have also a lot of problems we remember the economic from American car builders in Detroit falling like a stone (never the less AIG (American Insurance Group) don't support the Car companies. The American worker in the car industry lost near all there working place and my last Chevrolet Orlando (with a practical Hedge back during I have had the Familiy) is build in South Korea. Now American workers will never more need in the Tesla Giga Factory all runs fully by robots!

We got insane amounts of sugar in nearly everything you can buy in the supermarket in germany. If you don't spend 300€ or more for shopping you leave with unhealthy food and if you look in the industrial segments in germany nearly everyone is a fatty.

Mouthside? Mahlzeit.

Well 50% of Germans are fat.

*I like Seattle but I can't get used to avoiding human waste on the sidewalls.*

*To fly a flag in Germany it's considered "NATIONALISM" which got them into trouble in the past.*

Germany is no different to most other western countries. Go to a big city and you will find more opportunities to build connections with people. Move to a smaller regional town/community and people can be very cliquey and it might take longer for them to open up to newcomers. However, how quickly one establishes connections with other people is very much a personal thing and it is, after all, reciprocal. Unfortunately, there is that image of the ‘ugly’ American, that has become a meme in many foreign countries. Some people assume that all Americans are loud, brash, ignorant, entitled, superficial, opinionated and badly dressed. Just as there are people who think that anyone who is of swarthy complexion must be from the Middle East, a Muslim, budding rapist of white women and terrorist. If people choose to think such thoughts there isn’t much that one can do unfortunately.

There is one major difference mentioned in that video between Europe and the US. And this is why the TTIP- Treaty has been failed to sign years ago between the US and the EU. EU insisted on it, that companies has to prove that the stuff they are producing and selling are not harmful for the costumer. This cost more effort and money in the product development and authorisation process. In the US the consumer has to prove that the producer put harmful ingredients in it, to force them by court to change their compositions.

There are more than one selection for Quiver, can you specify which one?

If you WANT some Starbucks come to Austria But i guess in 3 years Germany build some Starbucks

My wife came to join me in Germany {USAF} in a village called Delkenheim in 1974. She wore orange short shorts, an orange halter top, and white go go boots and was really, really hot. We went to the gasthaus right down the street and the Germans stared at her the entire time we were in there. We were not prepared for this and found it extremely rude.

Every state, county and city has different tax rates. It's important to not bury taxes in the price. !) Governments can raise taxes and you don't see it. 2) Companies run ad's across many different areas with different tax rates. We don't eat in certain cities because the tax is 3% higher.

I agree with some of this up to a point. But one great advantage German (and other European and Asian ) Companies have over the USA is that of the US Legal System. The US Legal System puts a MUCH heavier burden on U.S. Corporations than what the legal systems of other nations put on their companies. Of course lawyers reading this are going to slam my comments but I don't care. I've seen how the U.S. Legal System operates first hand and it is an enormous handicap to U.S. Companies trying to compete.

Your brother and the OSU Beavs just scored before halftime to pull ahead of the WSU Cougs 21-17. Go Beavers!!

Never wore shoes growing up, or in any house since. Never common for my whole extended family.

I watched your video about German guilt and the very next video was this one, where you talk about German BEER PURITY LAW. Now that is a hell of a coincidence. Purity laws...

Regarding the School System: In theory, the system might seem to make sense, but in reality, the current education system is incredibly flawed, outdated, and broken, and it definitely needs to be reformed. Personally, I would much rather have a system similar to the one in South Africa, for example. There, everyone attends the same school, but after Grade 9, you can decide for yourself which subjects to take. For instance, you can choose between "Math 1" (easier) and "Math 2" (more advanced). The same applies to language classes; you choose between "English 1" and "English 2," and whether or not you want to continue with "Afrikaans." You also select three or more additional subjects, along with other compulsory courses like "History," "Physics," "Politics," etc., depending on your interests. These additional subjects can include options like "Hotel & Tourism," "Arts," "Business & Management," "Dance & Theater," "Cooking & Gastronomy," "Ceramics," "Sports," "IT & Computer Science," and so on.

I see your pain about the lack of metric system on your line "no divisible by 10 simple nonsense". I think...you should rather move to england or learn any language of europe, move there for 3-5 years and still will be cheaper and higher quality than what is happening there under the name of education for ridiculous high money... Seriously. I know its the unknown, and scary, but better overall ending with it. Dude, I don't need to scream to someone in an empty office from 2-3m distance. I feel myself and the other one when its painful to my ears. Your kind will get deaf sooner, but the problem you make everyone else deaf too in the meanwhile. If you ever visit eastern europe, the balkan, or far east...take off your shoes, especially if there is carpet on the floor... this is a personal offense and very rude not to... you walk outside in sht with those. Its called slippers. It would be healthy for americans to visit any european country for a longer period, it would make them able to upgrade their concepts about life, work and how to not get scammed by oligarch corporates... It wouldnt be that good for the europeans tho. Well maybe only from a touristic point of view. Here the country makes the rules, not the companies. Seriously guys, you need a french type of revolution with corporates and their leaders...get those heads off... When will you realize in "The land of free" you all are actually slaves? Why would you want to make your food in agas stinky parking lot? Not to mention in europe we don't have so much big spaces, so we talk about underground garages here...

I'm an American who simply doesn't think my country is perfect. I appears to me that lots of developed countries are currently more free and have a smarter populace than we do. Let's improve instead of just bindly waving the flag.

3:30 the reason manual transmission went out of style is that originally automatic transmissions were a luxury that became a fad, then people realized they were easier to drive, then manual fell out of favor because they were cheaper.

The US Federal Government is on the metric system, and all measurements in their documents reflect that as such. If you deal with the feds you use metric. Ask any soldier over there.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. = BARBARIANS. They showed their "excellence" in the many brutal ways the EXECUTED the Greeks who resisted during WWII. When Greeks killed ONE German, the Germans executed an ENTIRE VILLAGE: men, women, children, ALL. Yes, they definitely excel in BARBARISM. And so do AMERICANS: your country is HATED by the entire world for the ENDLESS WARS and DESTRUCTION it has caused. I see why you feel "at home" in Germany: you are both made of the same sh@t.

YOU ARE SOOOO BORING.....

GERMANY= SHIT. USA=BIG SHIT. No wonder you feel great there!

I can't stand either country: GREEK here.

Great video, with smart explanations. As a German having lived for almost 11yrs in the U.S. it is nice to see, how to create more understanding for each other.

"Americans are loud" --- when they are on vacation, yes. And once you have that idea then it gets reinforced by loud ones. When I am out alone in Rome or Berlin, people assume I am local and come up and speak German or Italian. Point being almost no one assumes that a lone person is a tourist. OTOH if you speak English in a group in a non-anglophone country then you are going to stand out. Do Germans perceive English tourists as loud and rowdy? That is who I notice. Plus they walk down the wrong side of the staircases, etc.

Three thing are important when driving on the highway: 1. Schulterblick [ looking back - checking the blindspot] when changing lanes. 2. Keeping the "two second" distance ( above 150 km/h it is better to be 3 sec) from the car in front and 3. Turn the dashcam on. Germans have a strong culture of driving - especially keeping the distance ( Tailgating is not done). Dutch have no such culture - tailgating all the way, changing lanes before your engine hood. The most annoying Dutch folklore is brakechecking - especially if you drive according to the German rules ( 2 sec rule, 20 sec rule, 45 sec rule/10 km/h speed difference, etc) in a car with German registration.

Great video... I expected nothing, but was pleasantly surprised by the end. However, I think you missed something very very important. It is the name for the American game that is not played by foot and not played with a ball. Yet it is called football. Another important thing is about the overstatement (relating chess to "the chasing egg" game), simply because the chess requirements are a kind of too high (at least for the best NFL players).

Chieeeeefs!!!!!

He is talking about Gernamy and there is Italian music playing in the background! 😅😅

I am a retired Social Studies high school teacher. I’ve been a sponsor on several student summer trips to Europe. On one trip I was standing on stairway with most of my kids and two of another teacher’s kids in West Minister Abbey. Suddenly we heard loud noisy rude teens make jokes about Brits. I waited with my group to ask the drunken teens to be more respectful. As they got closer I heard them speaking German or shout insults in German accented English. I let these poorly raised Germans go on by without comment since I realized they were drunk (and disorderly). My American students asked “ who are they?” They’re Germans. Drunk at 11 a.m. Why are they doing that in this church, etc. Finally one of the kids said, “So they’re kinda the Texans of Europe?” So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

The Cash thing is mostly because of the costs for the shop. They charge them a few percentage of every purchase payed by card. Especially with credti cards. In every bigger Shop or Restaurant u can pay by card.

The topic 'hatchback' astonishes me a bit. Because of smaller roads and parking lots, it could be very anoying, driving an SUV. And also regarding the costs for fuel, insurance, new parts (e.g. wheels) etc. , especially when it comes to larger SUV vehicles. Therefore, over the decades, a hatchback (not every one!!) becomes what we in Germany desired...

This video has huge hints of ADHD

The imperial system yields nice proportions for graphic arts, page layout and other design. Divides nicely into fourths, eighths, sixteenths. European page sizes seem completely arbitrary, which makes no sense to me. When you work in printing, you want things to impose neatly onto a larger press sheet. Inches rule! edit: and tailgating culture spills over to the ski resort parking lots!

Weil die Deutschen trotz Maulkorb noch ansatzweise selbstständig denken können ( nicht alle ) Aber bei den Assmericans ist hopfen und malz verloren verblödete kriegsgeilen HU- Nation

The culture that allowed the nazis to come to power thinks they have the right to criticize? Lmao

LOL. The Germans got proud a few times in the past and twice, did not work out very well. You cannot be very proud, when you get your @$$ handed to you. Waterloo and 1871, may have been OK, but not so much in 1918 or 1945.

Regarding drinking in the US. Most of the time, we tend to say, let's go get drunk. In Europe most of the time they say let's go have a drink. We may get as drunk as in the US, but the purpose was to have A drink. I quit drinking years ago, before it became a problem for me. Same with smoking. Almost 70 now and feeling pretty good. LOL

As a german i can reverse the privacy-nude-point to you americans because i find it weird that your clothing style and general outer appearance (especially girls) seems so liberal and you show a lot of skin, but on the other hand you are morally so conservative. That feels like a big paradox

well we also like to take walks^^

Europe needs more NFL ! More games no only in UK or Germany, we´ve got a lot of great stadiums, we´ve got passionate fans, emotions, we can support. Can imagine NFL to be played in Saint Denis, San Siro, Solna, Warszawa, Budapest.....

I don't feel guilty at all but I feel responsible that such atrocities don't happen again. I do think that Germany has done a very good job working up its past in contrast to many other countries. I mean, the victims meanwhile have turned into perpetrators.

I would love to see dignity restored for Germans in their national pride. So sad to see them kind of uniquely neutered in their patriotism and their accepted freedom to express that. Stop interpreting this as the slightest bit pro-Nazi

Maybe “Taken” sounds Japanese if you pronounce it differently as someone reading the language who isn’t an English speaker
