Americans Try To Educate Europeans but FAIL... 🚨🤣

Added: 2026-05-30

[00:00:00]All right, y'all. Hello. It's Friday.

[00:00:02]Let's have some fun as we always do.

[00:00:04]You're really going to enjoy this one. I think you might want to buckle up for it because uh well, we're taking a look at some seemingly clueless Americans. We're not sure yet, but these Americans are trying to educate the rest of the world.

[00:00:18]In this case, they're trying to educate Europeans.

[00:00:22]If you're not already laughing very, you know, hysterically, you will be. Can anybody explain to me why in Europe you cannot get ibuprofen just like normal drugstores but rather the fact that you have to go toarmacies to get it? And even moreover the fact that pharmacies often close kind of early and even more the fact thaties often times are not even open at least in Germany they're not really open on Sundays and the only ones open on Sundays are these emergency ones which there's only a few of them and not really located in very many places within the city. Can anybody explain that to me as a dumb American? That would be really helpful. Before you kind of attack me, I'm Jonathan, American that's been living in Germany for the past 10 years. I speak German. I have a master in German. My fiance's German. I bought an apartment in German. I'm I'm even a dual citizen of Germany. And still I'm pretty German, right? And still it's like I don't understand this thing. And you could say yes, it's because it's a medication, all that kind of stuff. But it's like guys, it's ibuprofen. What is the big deal? So, can anybody explain this to me in the comments? Additionally, the Americans that are living in Germany or Europe, what's your take on like the fact that you can't get like ibuprofen anywhere except for a pharmacy. And for the Europeans and Germans, French, whatever, what is your two cents? Don't be too hard, but just let me know cuz I'm genuinely kind of curious because it's kind of a pain in the ass. Let me know in the comments. Peace.

[00:01:47]>> Okay. Holy crap. Let's unpack this. So, first let me trust me, I got a lot to say. First, let me try to see this guy's point here. So, as an American, right?

[00:02:02]This is just the tiniest inconvenience.

[00:02:05]So, tiny. Like, come here. Zoom in on this.

[00:02:10]Okay.

[00:02:12]tiny tiniest inconvenience ever that if you happen to need ibuprofen on a Sunday. Um there's not as many places to get it as you would be used to in any suburbia town or city here in the US. The reason this is not a huge deal is I'm sure there's somewhere you can get it. It may not be as available or what you're used to, but I'm sure there's somewhere. Second of all, um we will go to the comments as well. I'd like to see how the Europeans weighed on this weighed in on this. I'm sure it's quite entertaining. But just as someone with, you know, logic here, um I'm pretty sure there's multiple places you can purchase ibuprofen in basically any developed country, including the country of Europe. How about this? If we're complaining about Sundays in Germany, to be specific, how about you just buy it on Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday? And uh if you think that you're going to need it, well, now you have it in your cabinet in your apartment in Germany. That way, if it happens on Sunday, don't have to worry about who is open. Just open your cabinet and it's right there. Like what are we what are we doing here? Right.

[00:03:37]This is actually kind of funny. Um it's the title that gets me, right? Why are Europeans afraid of ibuprofen? U first of all, everywhere's got different culture, right? So maybe, you know, they eat different in different cultures.

[00:03:50]Maybe they pop pills differently, right? Like there's just different views on things. I don't think they're probably they're probably not afraid of ibuprofen. Maybe they just don't, you know, take it a lot. I'm American. I take ibuprofen maybe two or three times a year. Like I just don't take it unless I really really need it and that's basically never. And I don't think of what day of the week it is when I do need it because I have a, you know, some ibuprofen in the medicine cabinet and there you go. I'm covered. But let's go to the comments. I'm sure these are hopefully entertaining as I think they will be. What's a normal drugstore if it's not a pharmacy? Netherlands here.

[00:04:30]You can get it in a supermarket. So there you go. You can get it in more places than just a special emergency pharmacy. You can get ibuprofen anywhere in the UK. Every corner shop sells them.

[00:04:40]Normally open from 6:00 till 10:00 p.m.

[00:04:42]is not open till 10:00 p.m. Sunday you can get them till 400 p.m. in major stores and boss man shops till 10:00 p.m. Then you can get them for 24-hour shops. Yeah, I'm pretty sure this guy just didn't think this through all the way. Can you tell me why I can't buy Kinder eggs in America?

[00:04:59]That is true. That is true. That is the hilariousness of uh our country of the United States. Oh boy, that is one of many. I can buy ibuprofen in any store or gas station in Sweden. Can you explain to me where you get your info?

[00:05:13]Well, I think that should uh prove the point here. Yeah, this guy. Sorry, man.

[00:05:19]I think you're wrong. Let >> me tell you something. The time in my life that I felt the most American was when I used to teach English in Europe.

[00:05:26]The standard in Europe is to learn the Queen's English. Okay? They be all talking like they're from the United Kingdom. So imagine me on my first day when I >> Well, before she continues, that's not too much of a surprise because I could think of two major things. One, English is from it's in there. There's a clue, right? England. Okay. And if it's from England, that means English is from England. That means that's the original language. that means the actual language at the source like how it's supposed to be. Uh also also England English is uh well it's a lot closer to Europe. I mean it's literally part of Europe. Might not be part of the EU but geographically England's a lot closer to France or Germany or Poland or Latvia than it is to well the US or some other random English speaking country. All right. Now that we got the obvious ones out of the way, let's go. I >> enter to my class and a student comes up to me and says, "Hey, Mali, can I go to the toilet? Can I go to the toilet? Why are you talking like you're on Love Island, bro? Can I go to the bathroom?

[00:06:39]Can I go to the toilet?" It's like, "That sounds so weird." And like my own students used to correct me saying that my English was wrong because the standard of grammar in British English is very different than the standard of grammar in American English because normally in the United States for example you would say something like I don't have any food but in British English it would be I haven't got any food. I haven't got any food. I haven't got and so if I say yeah guys I don't have any food. They would say, "Mali, I think the correct way to say is I haven't got I haven't got." Well, take a trip down to my goddamn country and I'll tell you how we say it there. All right. The worst one was the >> So, it's funny because, you know, if she wants to think that American English, you know, the way she's used to isn't wrong, you know, that's fine. Um, maybe it's harsh to say it's wrong, but technically it is wrong. And yes, technically English is from England. And yes, a lot of countries around the world speak English, but uh, you know, the UK, like they have kind of the, you know, the OG status on this. And yes, we kind of speak our own brand of English over here in the US. And that's just how it's, you know, how the cookie has crumbled basically. But, uh, you know, we can speak that and that's fine. But we can't expect the rest of the world to necessarily adopt it over, you know, actual British English. Uh, birdish English is the original. I mostly agree.

[00:08:12]I think British English is the original.

[00:08:14]Know what a birdish is, but uh, yes, I get your point. Do you have baths in school? No. So, the kid was right. This is actually hilarious and something I have to admit and as well as other Americans have to admit I am you know I say this too like can I go to the bathroom right like that's what we call it here but in reality a lot of times we're referring to just you know a toilet toilet room restroom whatever um there is no bath in there a lot of times and uh why we say bathroom in any context even when there's no bath in there well there in lies where we're wrong I'm not sure why we say that. It's just what we say. And so if we try to correct someone on it, it doesn't pan out.

[00:09:00]>> Hello, I am here to have an actually realistic conversation with the Europeans who would like to walk to the World Cup games at Metife Stadium. And here are my credentials. I love walking and I don't like paying for parking. I have walked to multiple concerts at Ford Field. Yes, walked multiple miles to get to concerts at Ford Field. Here was Beyonce.

[00:09:18]>> She's got credentials, guys. Listen up.

[00:09:21]I have also walked multiple miles to go to concerts at Soldierfield in Chicago.

[00:09:26]They are both big football stadiums.

[00:09:28]Don't have a picture of me outside the stadium, but like trust me, this is Soldier Field for Chicago. I walked multiple miles to get there. Here I am at the Aerys Tour at Metife Stadium where some of the World Cup games are happening. Guess how we got there. How do you think I got there? We drove in a car. We're tailgating in the parking lot because we drove in a car because it is not safe or smart to walk to Metife Stadium. Here's my friend that I went with. We stayed with her parents that weekend who live literally minutes away from Metife Stadium. Looking at it on a map, it's only a couple miles. We still drove. And I'm not saying you have to drive. There's a bus that goes to Metife. You can take a train over to New Jersey. But the way Metife itself is set up with the roads and the parking lots and the highways and the neighborhoods around it, it is not safe or smart to walk there. You will get hurt. And whenever there's a big event at Metife, many of the hotels in the area will put signs in their lobby that say, "Do not try to walk to Metife from our location.

[00:10:30]You will be arrested." Yes. Arrested by the police. Do I know their plans?

[00:10:34]>> Damn. This is kind of crazy even for me in America to hear. Yikes. Um, I'm not sure if this is great advertisement for uh the World Cup here. Just another thing on the pile of reasons why a lot of people probably won't be coming here for the World Cup.

[00:10:53]>> Yikes.

[00:10:54]>> For the World Cup? No. I don't know if they'll be putting out those signs or whatever, but as an avid concert goer who loves walking to stadiums, I'm telling you, please do not try. And I hope this also helps you understand that >> you guys think you walk a lot as Europeans.

[00:11:10]Not as much as her. Once a year she walks to a couple concerts, right? You know, she showed us her her resume of concerts.

[00:11:21]And she walked to a couple of them. Not the Metife one though, but couple others. Basically, y'all got to stop talking like you know what's up with walking, okay? because you don't have credentials like this one.

[00:11:34]>> America is not some desolate wasteland that hates people who walk and doesn't have any walkable stadiums. We have walkable stadiums. Metife is just one of them. Okay. I >> This stadium is not suitable for walking. So, we'll host the most important international event there.

[00:11:51]Sounds so logical.

[00:11:54]Well, yeah, that's the funny thing. Um, logical and the United States don't seem to they don't seem to line up a lot.

[00:12:06]>> The [ __ ] the German children would ask me when I was their English teacher in Germany. Is Ohio real? Have you ever been to Crumble Cookie? Do you have a gun? Can you bring us Crumble Cookie?

[00:12:18]Have you ever been shot?

[00:12:20]>> Have you ever been shot in school? Do you like Donald Trump? Why did every American vote for Donald Trump? Is it true that there's no real bread in America? Is it true that there are no trains in America?

[00:12:36]Do you play Fortnite?

[00:12:38]>> Do you play Roblox? Is Florida man real?

[00:12:43]>> Yes.

[00:12:44]>> Do they have alligators as pets in Florida? Have you ever been to Ohio? Do you have hockey in America? Is it true that going to college in America costs €1 million?

[00:12:58]>> Not that much, but a fraction of it. It costs a lot.

[00:13:03]>> Have you ever met Kanye West? Is it true that American windows only open up and down and they don't swing inside?

[00:13:11]>> Mostly true. There are some fancy creative houses that have windows that sometimes will let's see some of them will uh like maybe open like this but they they still don't do all the little tricks that like the European windows do but I would say 80 to 90% of windows yeah they just slide up and down that's it >> how do you do fund in America if there is no fund the [ __ ] the German >> huh the little American children yearned for crumble cookie. So, fun fact, um I as an American, uh now, of course, I've seen crumble cookie, you know, the the little cookie restaurants or whatever you would call it, I guess, a bakery. Um I've seen them. I I have them near me. I haven't actually stepped foot in one. Like, I've never actually been there. Um fun fact.

[00:14:07]Yeah. So, uh some Americans are obsessed with it.

[00:14:11]Uh, I'm not. That is hilarious that German kids have heard of it and literally yearn for it. Like kind of sounds like they they are they're curious.

[00:14:22]I don't know why that's like so fascinating. They got to think the US is Narnia.

[00:14:29]Maybe as kids they do, but boy, once they grow up they probably realize some things and they're like, "Yeah, it's not Narnia." The only reason that Europeans can afford health care and long vacations is because Americans pay for their defense and medical research and development through taxes. Two of the most expensive things.

[00:14:49]>> Oh my goodness. Sugar Daddy America, thank you so much for buying us nice pretty things and a little apartment in the city where we can have our little European affairs together. I just have a couple of little itty bitty like non-important questions to ask like whose taxes are paying for what now because like we pay for a lot with our own taxes including defense and you know we are very grateful that none of you want your own free health care or you know stuff like this or indeed any time off from work and we're so happy that you all happy to be in whatever situationship you are with your own government. Also, Britain called. They said, "Don't even worry about all of the free colonizing they did for you." Oh, France just called. Also, they said, "Don't worry about, you know, giving you your freedom from the British with the money and the military help and those things. Also, the Statue of Liberty."

[00:15:42]They're like, "Oh, don't even sweat it."

[00:15:43]You know, the whole symbol of your country. Oh, look at this. Germany also called. They said you're welcome for all the free scientists that you took from the war and developed you know your whole rocket technology systems that you use both for space and for the boom booms on other people. And look none of us will even mentions the insurmountable amount of debts that you have and owe to even us in Europe for some reason even though we keep buying all of your like military stuff and we don't know where you put the money. Yeah, you keep burying it somewhere or something. We're just so grateful that you've been keeping war away from us for so long.

[00:16:19]And if any, you know, we're threatening to start, you were just clicking your fingers and making them over in 24 hours so that there are no wars in any European countries.

[00:16:31]We just believed you when you said that you really like to spend your money on all of the latest gizmos and gadgets that make things go kaboom. And look, we know that you're not the only ones interested in such topics and we will endeavor to buy less of your things and make more of our own and you know do our own thing separately so that you don't have to worry about the burden of taking care of us anymore and you can do more for your own people. I know I'm so sorry this almost sounded like socialism and I'm sure that you have not taken your antihistamines yet. So I will not bring this up. I will let you continue with your day without breaking out in some sort of red rash. Yeah. Anyway, please, we are desperate for you not to rise up and demand more of your government in terms of, you know, social spending within your country to create a more equal society that >> yeah, people uh they do protest a riot here. Now, of course, never to the scale and organization of what I've seen from European offerings, but um they do they do riot and you know, protest and all that stuff here. It's just they never do it for stuff like he's mentioning. They always do it for some random news, you know, bit, some random uh political topic of the month. Yeah. Some people, some Americans have the wherewithal to kind of criticize and question why, you know, some of these things aren't more well relevant here, why uh, you know, some sort of while taxes that we all pay go to something that actually helps us out, why the government's not more accountable and more helpful, no one ever actually protests about it. Welcome to the United States. If it's you and ultimately it's the whole world, please don't do this.

[00:18:26]It would be devastating. We don't know what we would do without our big old sugar daddy. Yeah. To to hold us through the night. Okay. Yeah. Anyway, thank you for all of this and goodbye. The >> I'm sorry. That's funny. We We kind of We got to end it on that one, right? I feel like there was a couple more I had in the in the pipeline here, but that was just I mean, how do you even top that, right? I mean, here's the thing. I don't know if this original guy here if he truly believes it. It almost kind of sounds like he does if he did this for clicks or what, but I can guarantee, okay, cuz I've seen it out in the real world. There are people regardless of if they're on TikTok or not, there are people, Americans, that do like 100% think like this. And uh it is pretty well, I guess, let's put it this way, it's pretty wild to see. Um, but ignorance is bliss, especially in the land of the free. Well, it is Friday. I hope your weekend is going to be stellar. Enjoy it. And, uh, I hope to see you, of course, in another one. and I appreciate you taking some time and watching the uh the video. I thought that was a lot of fun. Yeah, I'm going to end it there. I My face almost hurts from laughing so much. That was pretty interesting. Americans trying to educate y'all Europeans and uh well, really just the rest of the world because remember the United States is just the best at everything. And uh y'all could learn, I guess. I'm sorry. I can't even say it with a straight face.

[00:20:03]I love you guys. We'll see you another time. My name is Andy watch. I do rocker. Until next time, y'all. Catch you catch you later. I messed up my outro. Whatever. I'll see you later.
