Only found in AmericaOnly in America...can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance... Only in America...are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink... Only in America...do people order double cheese burgers, a large fry, and a diet coke... Only in America...do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters... Only in America...do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and leave useless things and junk in boxes in the garage... Only in America...do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place... Only in America...do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight... Only in America...do we use the word "politics" to describe the process so well: "Poli" in latin meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "blood-sucking creatures"...

Only in America...do we have the freedom of speech allowing people to post things so funny (and so true) that they cause people to laugh so hard they fall off their chairs and hurt themselves, and THEN they appeal to the government for lifetime Social Security disability benefits because they were 'injured on the job'! Great post, drunkenvibe!
