If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make weekly "comedy" videos every Sunday evening. As an American living in London I love noticing the funny differences between the cultures and one of my most popular video series is my British VS American one. I'm also known for making terrible puns so sorry in advance. Hope to see you around, and I'll see you next Sunday! :)

THE BOOK THING! Literally pulled out a book at a family gathering and was told to put it away, no-one cared when I pulled out my phone and read THE SAME BOOK on my kindle app

[@flarlix9347]

It is really annoying when someone delayed or prevented my reading for any amount of time, personally I have never had someone stop me from reading, unless it something like a family gathering and they want me to join the for food but having people come up and ask me about the book is so annoying. Like I understand you wanna make polite conversation but I do not, I wanna read so please stop asking about the book and leave me alone. Worst part is that responding in a manner that conveys what I just said seems to rude so I often just answer their questions and wait for them to stop.

[@kulcsocska]

@@flarlix9347 in my family, when you're on your phone when with people, it's offensive, (I mean, sure, I get it, but I don't like to talk to people) so what I do is I just ignore them, or put headphones in, or pretend to go the bathroom and never return... sad thing, I've lost alot of respect for my family, so I don't really care when they're offended by this

[@marialindell9874]

And then they have the audacity to complain when literacy rates are plummeting and people don't read anymore. (As an avid reader, I wish everyone would just grab some books to read in their life. I have gotten way more praising from all kids of teachers for having a broader vocabulary, being able to write enjoyable text with variations and more. All those skills came from reading books. I often speak and write like an adult with a fixation toward Edwardian life and manner of speech. Then there is Julia, 17, who can't even write a sentense that has the capital letter in the beginning (basically she only can comprehend lowercase and thus her CV is shit. We study business and administration. We could be the next banker or the next heart surgeon if we would pursue those careers.). Also I seem to be the only person in my class of about 55 people that actually takes into consideration disabled people and the visually impaired and HoH communities. Because my mom is extreamly HoH and basically all blind. Huh...

Do you actually know why so many of these horrible crimes against children are legal in the USA?! This is because the United States is the ONLY country in the entire world (yes, literally every country) that has not ratified the convention of the rights of the child. In which precisely that is stated, all children's rights. So, in my opinion, that shows how much the USA actually cares.

Women kinda got to wear more in recent Times, lots of pants and Shirts and hoodies and shit not the dresses etc from maybe 100 years ago. I really like that, but men are sadly instantly "judged" for the most (miniscule?/minor) things in their appearance.

[@savingfelvkitties7424]

I think guys should be allowed to wear dresses without being judged! Used to be illegal for women to wear pants. Now everyone does. Same difference

[@gazevedo1025]

Edit: It is currently still legal in 40 states. Most states have a minimum of 15/16 years old. FIVE states have no minumum.. This is crazy to me, Evan, that it is still LEGAL in 46 states for a MINOR to be MARRIED! Not just that but their parents or a judge can sign off on it and it can be to anyone of any age! Also, in a lot of those states minors can't file for divorce in a court of law because they are minors so... why are we the land of the free?

[@sofiad6713]

we talked about this a few videos ago! it is absolutely insane and should be illegal!

[@grahamparks1645]

The logic is to prevent out of wedlock births. That matters more in the US and many religions require it.

[@gazevedo1025]

@@grahamparks1645 yeah which I understand as a Catholic. however, I think Christians as a whole should hold more reverance for the sanctity of marriage, not just as a convenience when it looks better. California, for example, is a very liberal state but doesn't ban child marriage. Why, you may ask? Because politicians believe it infringes on people's rights, which includes the right to marriage. My opinion is, if we care about a(n) (unborn) child's life, then wouldn't we want protection for their future to be free from likely missing out on education and suffering from mental health issues and trauma (ie what happens to a lot of people, especially women, who were forced into marriage as minors)? I'm not saying that child should live without their father however forcing a permanent relationship on young mothers is not the way to go, as it is seen in many of these stories of cases. I know there is some nuance to this and other objections, but I can't think that starting out with too strong of laws is going to be that much of an issue in terms of preventing marriages before the age of 18.

It isn't a law. It's a legal defence in court, hence why it can't be "repealed." The only way for the argument to become invalid is for higher courts to reverse the judicial precedence set by lower courts. It also means that a jury can reject the defence if they so please, and likely have more often than not.

Also a great way to get around the pay wall on scientific papers: Email the authors. Every single time I did that in college, they were delighted to send me the paper. It could take some time because scientists are busy people, but no one said no in the 4 times I asked.

'Call in' makes sense to me, it's the direction of the call, as in 'I placed a CALL from my house IN to the office where I work to tell them I'm not coming in today'. But, I concede that I could be placing my own meaning on it to make it make sense to me, 'Calling out sick' just doesn't sit well in my British ear.

[@zoeadams2635]

Going off of the one about turning the other way, I'd make it socially acceptable that when you ask someone for directions to a place you have a vague idea of where it is (you know it's "that way", but not WHERE "that way" it is), and they say "oh yes, you want to go "that way" (which is the opposite to YOUR "that way"), to completely disregard their instructions and carry on your "that way" without first pretending to go their "that way" until you're out of sight.

The cleaning thing, I think is a southern thing, most parties in the south the closest friends stay for an after-party/wind down and then clean before leaving. If you don't get to it that night then you text in the AM and see if/when they need help.

I'm 25 and the not being in relationships things in your mid 20's thing is something that i've had experience with some people having opinions on when they're not warranted. I had 2 relationships as a teenager but once I got diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome when I was 18 I decided to just focus on myself for a while and get used to life with the many hospital appointments and things that came with the diagnosis, plus with a 2 year battle with DWP to get PIP (disability benefits are so rediculously hard to get) there just wasn't the time for relationships. Learning about how if I get into a relationship and maybe we decided to move in together or even if at some point we were to decide to get married, My benefits could either my reduced or completely stopped because the government could deem that I wouldn't need the money because I'd be with someone who has an income and could support me is something I just can't risk. If my benefits were taken away because I was in relationship and that relationship became abusive, just as an example, it would leave me with little to no means to be able to support myself if I was able to escape the abuse. I've had people, including some family members, make remarks about how sad it is that I don't have a girlfriend. I also had some people say that I Should be grateful for the ones who have asked me out and went on to imply that being with a disabled person is such a heavy burden I should be thankful anyone would want to be in a relationship with me. Jessica Kellgren-Fozard has a great video called 'I lost money when I got married' which better explains some of the problems that can come with being on PIP and ESA and being in a serious relationship, maybe one day I'll feel brave enough to risk being in a relationship but for right now it's something that just fills me with so much anxiety and people judging me for not having a relationship since before I was 18 is really not fun to deal with.

[@MsPeabody1231]

Since you will be living until you are 82 you have a long time to get into a relationship.

[@geministargazer9830]

We would say call IN. As in call in to work to say you’re sick. But mostly we’d just say “chuck a sickie”

[@Wonderland2097]

I think the main issue with ad tracking is less about the basic collection of your info but more the selling of it which means many places can access this info to either cater ads to get you to buy certain products or more harmful things like influence your vote or use the info against you when applying to certain jobs, renting etc..

In Andalucia (southern Spain), if you see someone in the street, but don’t have time for chitchat, you can just wave and say “hasta!” (shorthand for “hasta luego/until later”) - I always think it would be helpful in English. Friendly, yet firm. Calling out “Until next time” would work.. although you do run the risk of sounding like the villain from Inspector Gadget..
