Before we start, I know there must be a multitude of things that us Brits do that Americans find bizarre, but as a Brit, I can only share the perspective that I know…

And that’s why I’ve rounded up some American things that don’t really make much sense to me…

1.Sharing a room with a stranger in university is the norm

2.Toilet bowls having that much water in them

3.Heating up a mug of water in the microwave instead of using a kettle

4.There are gaps in bathroom stall doors that are way too big

5.Eating scones (or biscuits I should say) with “gravy”

6.Sales tax not being added to an item until you get to the till

7.No on/off switch on plug sockets

8.“Creamer” in coffee

9.Fahrenheit instead of celsius

10.Jello is jelly, but jelly is jam

11.The American flag is, well, everywhere

12.Jaywalking can lead to a fine

13.Some areas have a home owners association (HOA)
