Setting non-travel jokes aside for aoment because somehow Americans don’t travel but they also get spotted as obvious tourists in their jeans and golf shorts.

Between prior English imperialism and recent American global market share, just about any place with a decent internet connection will have English as a viable communication language. It won’t always be great and you may have to talk to a few different people to find one that speaks enough English. The places I’ve been often have ads in English. Often enough, they’re not even dual language ads.

Now combine that with American exceptionalism and you’ll see Americans don’t see a need to learn anything else. No, they don’t see the irony in demanding the language of England as their one and only language heard in the 'States.

But, in a less cynical take, that country is huge and geographically diverse. There are many Americans that travel. Americans that travel domestically (or even only Can/US/Mex) should not be shamed. Language aside, different regions can have as much diversity as denser countries. Think about your stereotype for a resident of California, then New York, and lastly Texas. That is, after all, because the US is actually 50 states in a trench coat.

Call me dreamy-eyed, but the reference to “machine learning” might mean this person has respect for what the technology is and has been for decades before the chatbot flood

Have some alcohol, don’t look directly at the ceiling. But I think I was still stuck in this uncanny feeling where the sky was a bright blue (midday color) but the lighting level was sunset without the orange hue. So I guess it felt fake to me regardless as I begrudge the casino industry and their bullshittery aesthetic.

I’ve been there. I don’t gamble, yet it was fun. I don’t think I’d go again, but a vacation is a vacation and the price could be right.

The big draw to me and, subconsciously, I’d bet most people, is that it’s walkable. You can arrive by plane, taxi to the hotel, and not need a car until you leave for the airport. I walked 7 miles on the day I went around the different casinos to see the “architecture”, including the one you’ve pictured, without ever really exiting an entertainment area. Other days were under 3 miles. One day, I saw a comedy show, a magic show, and an EDM set (concert?) and walked to each. Plenty of places to eat and drink, easy enough to find something between your hotel and destination to break the walk in half. Prices matched what I’ve seen in major cities.

So why wouldn’t I go again? Because I live by a major city already. With a little extra walking to get through residential blocks, I can get about the same experience. Travel to the city is the hangup, as it likely means a car for 90% of the area. If everyone is getting inebriated, that’s obviously an issue for the return drive. So, sure, Vegas is cool in that everyone can imbibe and no one has to take the brunt of the responsibility. It certainly has a particular flavor to it’s shows in both style/genre and quality, being it’s a world-renowned city.

But I would get baja blasted in the Taco Bell bar again.

Do you have proof it’s not an established god? Do you have proof that any of the current representations are accurate or inaccurate to the original god being referenced? Saying it can’t be an established god is as much of a commitment of faith as saying it is a specific god.

So you’re atheist? You have unwavering faith in the unknown then. No proof, just feelings and opinions. Just like theists.

It’s a sarcastic counter to the typical arguments that there’s no inherent morality in human culture without religion. You know, people don’t naturally have empathy, so they have to be taught to simulate empathy because they beleive they’ll be judged when they die.

The damage Friendshas done with this myth is probably on par with Archer and it’s made-up association between having a stroke and smelling toast.
