    Rectangle - r/AskReddit u/Shelleton8 · 1y O 1 3 3 Non Americans of Reddit, what is the craziest rumor you heard about America that turned out to be true? 56.9k 54.6k ,↑, Share

    Reddit user u/Shelleton8 asked the non-Americans of Reddit to share some crazy rumor that they heard about American that actually ended up being the real deal. It's so interesting to see the little things that we don't question at all that are in fact very strange. We all know that other countries find it weird that we don't use Celsius or the metric system, but there is so much more.

    If this makes non-Americans feel better, this is also a shock from anyone not raised on the west coast. We all grow up making fun of this 'surfer accent' that we imagine is just used on TV, but let me tell you it is very real. And it always sounds silly. But then again every 'accent' is silly to someone.
