Let’s face it, Americans have a reputation for being a little, shall we say incurious about other countries and cultures? That’s probably a little too kind. The fact is a lot of people from other countries think Americans are downright ignorant about how they do things. And those people aren’t entirely wrong!
We’ve collected some of the most cringe examples of Americans confidently putting their ignorance on display, and you know what? At least they’re funny.
