Europeans do be like that.
Meh, same with US folks visiting Europe, which is actually a common movie trope. I’m sure there’s also plenty of people on both continents wo will think something through.
Just to compare

Sure, “TIL Europe is only seven countries.” Try the same but go Amsterdam -> Riga -> Athens -> Lisbon -> Amsterdam it’s 8000 km in a straight line. Europe might be smaller than North America, but it’s not that small.
In the US, the equivalent would be: Seattle -> Boston -> Miami -> San Diego -> Seattle. That’s 8500 miles (~13,000 km), and doesn’t even go to Alaska or Hawaii. I don’t think you can drive around Alaska, but if you could, it would be a similar distance.
Europe isn’t small, but it is a lot smaller than the US.
The US is a little below 10.000.000 km³, Europe is a little over 10.000.000 km³. I didn’t go to Russia, the UK, Iceland, Finland, Norway and Sweden.
upvote for Gulf of Mexico
Ahem, it’s the Gulf of America. Please get your facts right
Let’s call it the gulf of middle earth
Nope, it’s the Gulf of America. He said so. Now quit your anti-US retorics lest you be deported.
It’s pronounced Gulf of Mexico

Is this one of those weird maps with the equator going through Florida?
Gondor is going to need a lot more aid to move that gulf to the middle…
Silly! The game you play when the facts keep changing and the rules don’t matter

why is this being downvoted, have y’all never heard of sarcasm?
There is absolutely no way to determine if somebody is being facetious or serious over the Internet without further context. (Use a damn /s ffs)
Who could be serious saying that ??? (I don’t think Donald is posting here onlemmy)
77 million people voted for trump in 2024. Even if you subtract the 50% that can’t write, that leaves more than 38 million people who could seriously say this on Lemmy. Don’t pretend that the orange clown ruined the country all by himself.
Have you seen the state of the world today?
Whilst in all about road trips this fool better be driving at 1500mph to make these times
Mach 2 is very reasonable. Gillette makes a Mach 3.
Why not just take the High Speed Rail and get there in 45 minutes instead?
idk if I want to ride a train that goes at Mach 2.3 personally.
I’ll wait until it’s proven, then I’ll go find a g suit.
That’s gonna be a while. Current speed record from what I see for passenger trains is around 350 miles per hour. The quick math I did for getting from NYC to Miami in 45 minutes needed like 1,700mph. From what I’m seeing even the experimental stuff right now doesn’t get above 400mph.
US High Speed Rail:

When this baby hits 88Mph, you’re gonna see some serious shit

Nice to meet you Mr Estwoud.
