    But-but-but America bad!

    Seriously though, are Europeans so desperate to stroke their egos that they need to make fun of a trend so old it’s slipping from living memory?

      I feel like a thing isn’t “slipping from living memory” when it’s still being used to the extent that non-nationals even know the usage.

      Why does saying that ‘calling Jello a “salad” is weird’ mean “America bad”?

      Seems like you’re a bit sensitive about this topic…
