She holds the title International Master, so I guess OP thought that's the same as World Champion? But she's currently ranked 6365th of active players.

"You'd better tell the Captain we've got to land as soon as we can. This woman has to be gotten to a hospital."

"A hospital? What is it?"

"It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now."

I was actually surprised when I was in the UK last year and people were standing on the right in the escalators. But they walked on the left in crowded places. I was expecting all pedestrian traffic to be left-sided, but it was more mixed, like their measurement systems...

The issue with these statistics is that they look at the average, which is heavily boosted by the exceptionally expensive weddings of the higher upper-class. The median is significantly lower.

Also I'm not American, maybe people there just spend a lot more on weddings in general than what I'm used to.

I have no clue how you define "middle-class" but not even the fanciest weddings I've been to have spent even close to $250 per person. That kind of expenditure sounds quite a lot more like upper-class to me. Assuming you invite 100 people to the wedding, an average Joe will not have 25k to spend on one party.

What the fuck is going on with their asses? Now I really feel we're missing out on something great...

I'm also confused by this 473 ml pint, is that some American thing? I always thought pints were 568 ml... as in pint of beer.

It would have cost you nothing to not write this comment...
