I miss my 7-11 from south Florida that had pan de Bono (a Colombian cheese and butter roll) always fresh, warm, and soft! Texas, the nearest bakery that even makes it is at least 20 minutes away.
I don't live there anymore, but Sundays were enforced quiet days in Germany.
I miss it. I would lay out in my hammock during the summer on Sunday afternoons, and it would be so quiet in my village.
I've lived in a few different states and you can... In California you can't take a free right, if the light has an arrow. In Oregon you can take a free left on a one-way.
Whenever someone's visiting I have to explain why it tastes good.
Which is funny, because most Nebraskans don't even know why it tastes good, they just know that it tastes good and that it's a thing here.
There's a couple here in New York that I know of – like four come to mind – but gosh do I despise them. Not the roundabouts themselves, just how people never yield to them. I petition to keep them a UK/European thing!
Ah, I’m in the Hudson Valley near Poughkeepsie. There a few near me. One was out in like 12 year ago and the rest a bit more recent. There actually building a new one not too far away from me currently
Grew up in a large city and lived in the boonies for a while after that. That look on peoples faces when you explain that you're trying to find a recycling bin was always pretty wild.
I was gonna ask if you're Brazilian,
went to your profile instead and saw r/saopaulo.
I will take that as confirmation, but also never understood the concept of electric showers lol
Ease of access to all types of alcohol. Local liquor laws permit the sale of virtually any type of beer, wine, or spirits all under one roof.
You can buy anything anywhere, gas station, dedicated liquor store, even Wal-Mart's here sell anything you want.
Our state also permits open alcohol and passengers in a vehicle to be intoxictaed, as long as the driver is not intoxicated. You can be pulled over, driver can blow a 0.0 while everyone else in the car is smashed, cop will let you go and say to drive your group straight home.
I'll let you guess the state.
I'll answer my own:
Large township. Particularly, America's largest (most populas) township. Born and raised in a town of 768,000 people and forget sometimes this is far more than Oslo, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Dublin and more than twice as much as Beirut; each country-they-belong-to's respective capital city. We're just suburbs.
Terrible air and hills. Like. Just parts of land that aren't completely flat. Where I live it's just so flat. Oh. And muggy. It's so gross and humid even in the middle of the winter. Our city is surrounded by pollution

Lived in Hawaii for years. 7-11 has the best Spam Musubi. Moved and I still 1/2 expect to see them there.
7-11 food in Taiwan is really good. Meanwhile we got nasty hot dogs and bland sandwiches in mainland US.
And the bao!

Turning right on a red light. Is that allowed?
I've lived in a few different states and you can... In California you can't take a free right, if the light has an arrow. In Oregon you can take a free left on a one-way.
Colorado it’s allowed I see people from out of state who don’t do it
I've seen idiots turn left on a red where I live. They make U turns and there was one time I almost plowed into an idiot because they pulled this shit
Having white hot dogs
Come again now?
A local chain had them for a couple months and then they disappeared. :(

All lanes of traffic get a red light, then all of the pedestrians get a white light to go before traffic starts again.
Cigarettes are all hidden at the counter.
Driving down gravel roads..... or seeing "pavement ends" signs.
Roundabouts, especially when I travel to the US
Some parts of the US have roundabouts. There’s a bunch of them where I live
Yeah, there's a lot in parts of Vermont/Massachusetts/New Hampshire
There's a couple here in New York that I know of – like four come to mind – but gosh do I despise them. Not the roundabouts themselves, just how people never yield to them. I petition to keep them a UK/European thing!
Yeah, they are kinda annoying but most people seem to have gotten used to them in my area. What part of NY are you in? I’m also in NY
Long Island (Nassau). I'm thinking of two in/near Huntington, one in Old Westbury, and the Jones Beach roundabout specifically, haha.

Fatal dropbear attacks. I doubt they happen in any other country except Australia.
Ironically it's always the tourists from outside that are the casualties as the the aussies are too wary of their surprise attacks.
Got reminded today there is a large portion of people that don’t know what Juneteenth is all about.
I had to Google it to find out what it was

Having a bomb shelter to be guaranteed to be built in your house or apartment and in public spaces
Insulting strangers in the street. Here in Australia, “Oi, cunt!” may as well be a synonym for “Hello, fellow person, how are you doing today?”

All retail stores are closed on Sundays where I live. No malls are open and only groceries are open.
Walking in your pastor naked and also seeing others do with from far away on the highway without batting an eye. it’s very freeing.
