Pretty amusing, but not particularly fair. Even the first item, about driving slowly in the fast lane, rarely occurs.

Order tea from an American, and you will receive a cup of lukewarm water and a tea-bag.

This is actually changing. Tea is starting to gain respect. You can now find a legitimate tea house in many cities and even some towns.

My grandmother in England, when I visited her, refused to use teaballs, saying "You cannot make a good cup of tea by dipping a mouse up and down by its tail in a cup of hot water."

I have used loose tea ever since, and that's now 40 some years.
