Lauren : "I don't mean it that" and also Lauren after a while : "i've seen some things" hahaha and Christina's reaction towards her is hilarious 😂😂, love you guys
The last time Christina and Lauren were together in a video was on February 22, 2022 in the video about hospital bills and medication , really long time , finally together again 😁
@@xZankiohx actually , he did see the last video , I think he is talking about the last time that videos with these two are more common and didn't have this "pause" for months
@@cheman579 Cheman, I disagree 100%. We pledge to the ideals we strive for. We pledge to come together if the country is invaded. To simply say everyone for themself is very poor.
I'm an American who likes small talk, at times. I once was flying from Naples, Italy to London and was sat between a Brit and an Italian. I said hello to each when I sat down and as soon as the Brit heard my accent he completely hunched against the wall and started to read. I just knew he thought "oh no, an American who'll likely chat my ear off." 🤣 But the Italian on the other hand got all excited and we ended up chatting the whole way lol. I think the Brit was completely annoyed with us. I'd also like to point out that it's not just Italians who speak with their hands, so that could have also been a source for irritation.
don't worry, they're annoyed with everybody that is not from UK (I'm Italian and I've lived both in USA and England, people from usa were so funny, nice and positive, exotically with Italians ))))
I mean, if you're talking _conatantly_ for the whole flight then I think pretty much anyone would be annoyed with you right? Or is that just my English showing lol
@@toffonardi7037 bullshit. some brits do but us brits also get irritated easily. if it was 2 brits talking the whole flight instead of an italian and an american they'd have been just as annoyed. it's not because they're from a different country, it's cos they're annoying. if there was a sound american in the middle and an annoying brit at the end, we'd be annoyed by the annoying brit and we'd be sound with the sound american
@@sileudies yes I do, at least Majority of low class Living in south England. Never seen that amount of racism not even among souther rednecks in the Usa
I appreciate Christina sharing her point of view and that she said it differs by region. As someone whose family is from the South, she mentioned higher gun ownership but she made it about mostly about “protecting the land”. It took Lauren from the UK to bring up hunting. A lot of my family owns guns as a lot of my family hunts. A lot of my friends and coworkers do too. Hunting is important because it keeps certain populations in check when they don’t have natural predators around. Anyone ever hit a deer with their vehicle? It can be deadly. My family, We own hundreds of acres of undeveloped land in the country. It’s not unusual for my family and friends to own livestock, chickens. As far as protection, guns are also used for protection from animals. I don’t own a gun but there were times I wished I did when walking through the woods or a marsh and seeing animal tracks. Someone who spends their entire life never leaving a city or suburb probably wouldn’t understand that I primarily associate guns with hunting and I consider Americans who don’t primarily associate them with hunting as being of a different culture. I wouldn’t say one night stands are common but I think there are a lot of people who are in short lived relationships. But where I’m from because overall we are more religious than the northeast. I think Southern people are more patriotic but that is specifically Southern white people. Keep in mind Christina is not a minority. POC, especially black people are more likely to have a distrust of the government because it wasn’t all that long ago that we didn’t have equal rights under the law. Southern people are very chatty. I strike up conversations with strangers all the time and they do the same. I think Midwest people are pretty chatty too in the store, in the elevator, wherever. Someone who isn’t this way will likely be seen as cold, rude and stuck up. Also in my culture if you don’t have what is considered here to be good manners then people will think you weren’t raised properly. I would say of all the regions the Northeast is the least friendly and the most direct blunt aggressive.
Haha I'm glad you responded to this video because your observations tally with mine. I've lived in the South but I'm not a fan of guns unless it's needed for hunting or you live on a farm.
It definitely is. I’m a city person but I’ve spent enough time in the country to be aware of the differences. Also there is a difference between a country town and living in a rural unincorporated area. Where a lot of my family lives the nearest store is a 20 to 30 minute drive into town. So people are raised to be largely self sufficient although not totally self sufficient as they were just a generation ago as my mom’s first cousins didn’t grow up patronizing grocery stores. Nowadays They still only have on gas station nearby and the pumps still have the rolling numbers.
@@humphreychannel582 It’s sizable for sure but not known how many Americans have never left the country. many non-Americans assume the stats are the same as the number who don’t have passports. To me this way of thinking is flawed because I grew up on the Southern border and went out of the country driving to Mexico many times before I ever had one. We can go certain places without needing a passport. My mom went to Canada without a passport. Keep in mind also we have island US territories like Puerto Rico, Guam and USVI. No passport needed. and before 9/11 restrictions weren’t so strict. my parents took us on a family vacation to the Bahamas when I was a teen . We flew there and I and my brother didn’t have a passport. Also I know a lot of people who are current or former military and deploy to different places around the world. They aren’t required to have tourist passports for deployments. I don’t know very many people who have never been out of the country but I would guess most of them live in Middle America.
Guns *used* to be more common here. Some quick ways to see this: 1) Alfie King's letter to Lord Kitchener 2) the Forgotten Weapons video on the Larne gun running (there's a side remark somewhere in there about parlour shooting)
I think people in the US 🇺🇸 are much more smiling, excited, optimistic and outgoing than other countries in the world. Anyway I loved the video and of course both girls' talk , especially Christina's reactions
I can relate to the smiling part. as a west european the people were way more outgoing to other ppl then in my home country, which was refreshing. I cant relate to the optimistic part tho. It might depend on where you live in the US, but when I visited it was shocking how paranoid a lot of ppl were. Thats not a surprise for me, because the media was full of messages that u have to be afraid of everything. I also observed a lot more segregation. If you are poor or live in a social weak neighborhood you were way more stigmatised then I knew it from my country. This came with some real trust issue from a lot of ppl against other social groups.
That's exactly what I love about Americans 🇺🇸. Always kind, nice above all optimistic. Christina is the type girlfriend to get. She's from Boston and vegan
@@TheHolladiewaldfeee It might also have to in which part of Europe you are and even within in a country which region. In regions where most are without religion and mostly no socialist, the people seem more optimistic (if in Europe)
Christina : "No! not all people have guns in the states.Seldom in my state". Also after realising it Christina : " Recently many in my state stocking guns for some reason" 😀😂😂
I feel small talk and chatting up people is much easier in the West than in the Northeast, which can be a little colder, and mind your own business. So depends on the region.
Some of these are relatable like the small talk, I hate small talks, because they're boring, depressing and a few things more. And many people are optimistic compared to me. And in the US, it is legal to own a gun, because of the 2nd amendment in the bill of rights when Americans declared independence. The 2nd amendment says "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." In other words, you have the right to own a gun to defend yourself from any personal space invaders. Oh, and a friend of mine mentioned about his parents meeting each other on a one night stand.
I’d say generally, regardless of location or political affiliation, most Americans consider themselves proud to be an American. I know there’s a lot of people on Reddit and Twitter who are staunchly anti-American, but social media sites are never representative of people in general. Americans differ more in how strong their patriotism is or how to approach issues facing the US. For myself, as someone who grew up in the same state as Christina (I now live in neighboring Rhode Island), I’d say I do love my country and wouldn’t leave unless I was relocated for work or something like that. I also find anti-Americanism hurtful. But I will never pretend that the US is perfect and acknowledge there are problems that need to be fixed.
It's funny because as a canadian, I don't understand why americans still live in the US lol. I guess we just get used to where we were born and unless there is something so dramatic we need to move (like Ukraine) we just don't.
As an American I feel blessed to live here. I think the anti-American rhetoric I see online is kind of ridiculous. Often times I'll see individuals who have never been to the United States like to talk bad about it, but also I noticed that American media also loves to bash it's own country. I'm not saying the USA is perfect, oh far from it but with seeing what my parents had to deal with before moving to USA and having traveled the world...yeah I'm happy I live here.
I'm just here to comment I agree with both Pluto and the other commentator on this response, Zhivago928. You're both right in, that's how I personally feel too.
I have my fair share of complaints about the US but when i see Europeans talk shit about the US something takes over and I become the most patriotic person that ever walked the earth lmfaoo but i talk shit about it all the time irl
For non-American viewers, many differences to questions like guns, and patriotism are between people living in urban versus rural areas. In those places not everyone thinks the same, but a large majority does.
Far more Americans own guns than Christina thinks. It's just that only certain types of people subscribe to gun culture and actually feel the need to broadcast their gun ownership. Regarding patriotism, the question was actually do people think America is the greatest, so it's debatable if everyone who loves America also thinks it's the greatest. Like, I love my dog, but she's not the greatest guard dog.
@@hueypautonoman specifically 32% of U.S. adults say they personally own a gun, an additional 12%, report living in a gun household. So 44% of households have a gun. I didn't google where those households are, but I'm pretty sure I'm correct that higher percentages of rural households have a gun.
@@flinx Yep, that's what I've read as well. Because of laws, I think more rural people would be willing to admit they own guns. I imagine a lot of people in poor urban areas wouldn't even respond to the survey, especially in places like Chicago where they travel across state lines to Indiana to get their guns.
@@hueypautonoman My thing is I think where people come from makes a difference in why they assume someone owns a gun. My first thought after the word gun is hunting. While I don’t live in the country most family mostly lives in rural areas. They hunt deer, rabbit, squirrels and whatever. And in my mind as far as protection a gun is protecting from a person OR an animal. I have never owned a gun but there have been times I was walking in the woods or marsh an wished I had a gun as soon as I saw tracks. People who have never had to worry about animal attacks don’t think about it. I have cousins who don’t go into the woods without protection. Another thing is when you live deep in the country it takes longer for law enforcement to arrive if you call 911. So people have to be their own first line of defense. Unlike urban areas, people living in rural communities are more likely to be related. After my cousin died his house sat empty for awhile. I asked my other cousins if they worried about squatters, drug addicts or vagrants coming in and causing problems and they said no because people assume country folks are heavily armed and so they likely know better than to come up in an area starting mess.
Man Christina is an attractive woman lol I needed to get it out of my system. But yeah I missed this duo. My favorite girls I think. Might be since I’m American and it’s interesting seeing how the uk differs from us
I think Americans like any foreign accent as long as they can understand what's being said. Some are deeply intrigued by foreign cultures while others turn their nose up at them.
I'm the opposite; if it's raining, I just enjoy life and enjoy the day as it comes. Christina; when someone from Manchester or North of England, Welsh or Scottish comes to the UK; can you pick the accent up
Funny fact, the Brazilians I know who live in the US don't think Americans are so friendly, maybe that's because in Brazilians we are even too much friendly
It’s interesting that sarcasm is looked down on in the states as being negative. In the UK sarcasm is very normal & healthy for the most part, and a dry sense of humour is something I actually seek out.
Lauren is the best example from the UK 😍 I love her accent, her style and I hope she goes back to being a light blonde :( reminds me of Dakota Fanning omg
Let me put it this way. Is the US the “greatest country in the world?” … no . Do we have the potential to be that??? Yes. Our fight right now is trying to convince the general populace that we CAN BE BETTER. Unfortunately most of the country is caught up in the mindset that we are already the best and there’s nothing for us to change or improve upon. Many if not most of us are way too caught up in the @conservative mindset” and think we need to go back instead of moving forward and improving.
Notice how they normally put a quick preview of the video at the beginning but they didn’t do that here. I think they’ve realized everyone is going to watch the video regardless simply because it’s Lauren and Christina. Lol! 👍
@@Blueyzachary you claimed that there are wait times to see a doctor in the US, which is categorically false. Pure ignorance. Sad how gullible and uninformed you are.
Ok yeah the north east and west coast are like a completely different culture than the south, midwest, west, southwest. Just because id say the answers given by that group would be probably exactly the opposite answer of both her answers
I like the premise of this interaction, but I don't understand why these questions are asked to early to mid twenty year old people, who have has less wisdom, less knowledge, and less life experience than to someone who could give better answers because they are in the mid 30's to mid 40's or even 50's.
I know you guys in the US perceive it as polite and hospitable, but for me as a northern German it feels insincere and pranking, no offence. Maybe it's just that I'm not used to it - or maybe it's just us guys from the North Sea coast who are seen a bit more reserved/taciturn/reticent even in Germany-
There’s major irony in the gun question. Since Boston is one of the few extreme gun restrictive states. Real answer is yes most Americans have guns. And it’s because of the British and because what happened in Massachusetts in the 1700’s.
Sorry, you don't seem to understand the history of your country. I think it's sad to dis the best country in the world, but gosh darn.. I'm just a hick what do I know. I still like you Christine, you are delightful young lady hope you come to realize and understand America..😮
The people that think America is the greatest country on earth mostly lean republican and the people that do not think that way mostly lean democrat (on average).
I've thought of that saying as like an unofficial slogan (I guess the official one is now "in god we trust"? I liked the old "out of many, one" in latin). kind of like a state could be the "sunshine state" and so on. and same way as in advertising, people repeat sayings, kids pick them up without question and years later like programmed robots when someone says "greatest country" the association just comes up like the McD jingle. readjusting from meme to fact based opinions can be hard
@@xohyuu No North America is a huge continent just like South America is a huge continent. When you use the word America without north or south anyone with the brain knows you're talking about the United States of America.
Other things common in USA: hotel rental for an hour even though one cannot go more than 5 minutes. ...paying child support for someone's else kid ( because your wife forgot to make him wear condom) .....
Seems like Lauren has got a lot closer with Christina than before. Judging from her voice, I hear some slight British dialects from her due to her being relaxed?
Yesssss. Georgia here and this lady representing the USA is not a typical American. I dont know how they do things where she is from but if she said some of the things she did down south, she'd get some dirty looks and a few bless your hearts.
My idea of America is basically New York. You know, restaurants, barber shops, pizza places, some fat guy with a pompadour, a bowling shirt and a golden necklace. You know what I'm talking about
@@patrickmccutcheon9361 I live in Italy. My personal opinion, pizza in the style of Napoli is superior, big crust and soft paste. Second is pizza in the style of Rome, thin and slightly crunchy. If anyone offers you a pizza in any way different than this run, it's probably gonna be some weird thing originating in northern Italy
@@patrickmccutcheon9361 Pizza as a fast food around the world is highly Americanized. Also, Chicago, NY, and Detroit Pizza is a ligitimate cuisine, despite you hating everything that American.
@@davidcosta2244 I actually like much about the US, especially the can do attitude and innovative spirit. Less so the gun culture where you run the risk of being killed when go to a supermarket, church, school or gay bar. I like the food except for that served by the chain restaurants, especially the fast food chains. That said, there are some authentic pizzeria in Brooklyn.
Wow, I can't believe she said definitely not to America being the greatest country. That is a political issue. The left says hell no, the right says hell yes.
There is no left in the USA. It doesn't have to be a better country than others. That isn't patriotism; that is nationalism! Christina aknowledge that her country has issues and she's vocal about it. Wanting to better your country isn't bad...
Here's a good video idea...have people from all over the world read the first 10 Amendments to the United States Constitution and see if it makes sense to them
There are 400 MILLION guns in private hands the United States, and the past two years of "mostly peaceful" violence has led millions of people who didn't have guns to buy them. There are some Federal laws restricting them, and most states have additional laws. The places with the most restrictions on honest citizens having guns are also those with the most violent crime, because the criminals DO have them (Chicago, Illinois, for instance, or Oakland, Callifornia). Even in states with major cities, once you get away from densely-populated areas the rate of gun ownership goes up. For instance, I live in Nevada, which is mostly rural, with three big cities. Most people in this state have guns, and outside of the cities, a high percentage of people routinely carry them. The state next door, California, has many restrictions, and a corresponding high rate of violent crime. A recent decision by the Supreme Court found that giving government officials the power to arbitrarily keep people from having guns (laws based in the racist Jim Crow/Ku Klux Klan era) is a violation of the Constitution, so there is likely to be a massive increase in the number of carry permits issued in the states which had those laws. This will lead to a shift in gun ownership statistics. I will be teaching a group of women to handle and select guns this weekend, and what had been intended to be a class of 5 is now going to be a class of 14, with all of them coming from California, expecting the laws keeping them unarmed to be relaxed.
All thanks to BLM xd People afraid that bunch of thugs and thieves can go in their houses or shops excusing themselves that they are marching for "freedom".
@@shure81 Unfortunately, that doesn't explain to a foreigner the complexity of the issue. The more information they have, the more likely to understand.
@@shure81 The constitution merely states that a “well trained and armed militia” may exist for the purpose of keeping the government or a foreign invader in check. Never promised unrestrained weapons of war to the hands of any and every civilian with minimal oversight… furthermore gun violence infringes on Americans’ most basic constitutional rights to life liberty and happiness. The interpretation of the right to bear arms has been bastardized by far right gun company funded groups over the decades and we are now seeing the twisted effects of that deregulation.

@@hueypautonoman specifically 32% of U.S. adults say they personally own a gun, an additional 12%, report living in a gun household. So 44% of households have a gun.
I didn't google where those households are, but I'm pretty sure I'm correct that higher percentages of rural households have a gun.
@@flinx Yep, that's what I've read as well. Because of laws, I think more rural people would be willing to admit they own guns. I imagine a lot of people in poor urban areas wouldn't even respond to the survey, especially in places like Chicago where they travel across state lines to Indiana to get their guns.
@@hueypautonoman My thing is I think where people come from makes a difference in why they assume someone owns a gun. My first thought after the word gun is hunting. While I don’t live in the country most family mostly lives in rural areas. They hunt deer, rabbit, squirrels and whatever. And in my mind as far as protection a gun is protecting from a person OR an animal. I have never owned a gun but there have been times I was walking in the woods or marsh an wished I had a gun as soon as I saw tracks. People who have never had to worry about animal attacks don’t think about it. I have cousins who don’t go into the woods without protection. Another thing is when you live deep in the country it takes longer for law enforcement to arrive if you call 911. So people have to be their own first line of defense. Unlike urban areas, people living in rural communities are more likely to be related. After my cousin died his house sat empty for awhile. I asked my other cousins if they worried about squatters, drug addicts or vagrants coming in and causing problems and they said no because people assume country folks are heavily armed and so they likely know better than to come up in an area starting mess.
Man Christina is an attractive woman lol I needed to get it out of my system. But yeah I missed this duo. My favorite girls I think. Might be since I’m American and it’s interesting seeing how the uk differs from us
I think Americans like any foreign accent as long as they can understand what's being said. Some are deeply intrigued by foreign cultures while others turn their nose up at them.
YESSS MY FAVOURITE DUO IS BACK!! missing them ft. grace from australia tho
Lauren has a channel on YT (Laurenade), and the three have done videos together, too.
I think too in america, your politics will influence if you are more patriotic or not.
If im not mistaken, i believe montana has the most guns per capita in the us. Likely from the sparse population. I remember learning that years ago
I don’t know about per capita, but Alaska has the highest rate of gun ownership (3 in 5 Alaskans are gun owners). Montana’s high too though.
christina and lauren are the best duet on this channel we want them in every video .
I'm the opposite; if it's raining, I just enjoy life and enjoy the day as it comes. Christina; when someone from Manchester or North of England, Welsh or Scottish comes to the UK; can you pick the accent up
I say like SO much so go smash the like button🤪
The "I don't mean it that" is priceless oh 😂😂
Another very interesting video, thanks ladies .
yasss Lauren's back
Yay, Lauren and Christina are back. WOHOOOOO
I think guns are more common out west than in the South. But there's a significant minority with them in all parts of the country.
In the South, the number of the police station is not sufficient | Пeрeмога Үкраїнi!
Они красивые. They are beatiful.
A very sweet conversation. I enjoyed it.
Please, though, don't assume waving a flag is the same as patriotism.
Christina's pronunciation is like proper American English to me.
I can understand what she says when she is speaking.
Funny fact, the Brazilians I know who live in the US don't think Americans are so friendly, maybe that's because in Brazilians we are even too much friendly
This is the first time I see Lauren not cross legged.
Awesome to see Beautiful Cristina back & Lauran is such a sweetheart ❤️
It’s interesting that sarcasm is looked down on in the states as being negative. In the UK sarcasm is very normal & healthy for the most part, and a dry sense of humour is something I actually seek out.
It’s not like that. Its mostly old people who kinda look down on sarcasm but its not so much for teens or at least where I live
Lauren is the best example from the UK 😍 I love her accent, her style and I hope she goes back to being a light blonde :( reminds me of Dakota Fanning omg
I built two night stands from Ikea.
I've got to say we do have guns in the UK. We just don't let lunatics have them in much the same way we don't allow blind people to drive
Let me put it this way. Is the US the “greatest country in the world?” … no . Do we have the potential to be that??? Yes. Our fight right now is trying to convince the general populace that we CAN BE BETTER. Unfortunately most of the country is caught up in the mindset that we are already the best and there’s nothing for us to change or improve upon. Many if not most of us are way too caught up in the @conservative mindset” and think we need to go back instead of moving forward and improving.
Notice how they normally put a quick preview of the video at the beginning but they didn’t do that here. I think they’ve realized everyone is going to watch the video regardless simply because it’s Lauren and Christina.
Lol! 👍
Bumbag vs fannypack kills me every time
You’re ignorant and uneducated.
@@fatherson5907 care to elaborate?
@@Blueyzachary you claimed that there are wait times to see a doctor in the US, which is categorically false.
Pure ignorance. Sad how gullible and uninformed you are.
We need a video compilation of just Christina's hand gestures. 😆
A British asking about one night stand being too common is hilarious to me,I have literally had loads in the U.K.
yeah you know guys how long i'm waiting for you both to show again on this channel together!!.. miss you guys so bad!!~~
I think America and Britain have a lot of common things also different things
Guess I definitely live in a different part of the northeast than her…. A lot of us carry in my neck of the woods
Well, here in Brazil people will NORMALLY have one-night stands. Whether it’s a man or a woman, people will go out at night to drink, dance and flirt.
When I think of the first thing that comes to my mind is you Lauren
Ok yeah the north east and west coast are like a completely different culture than the south, midwest, west, southwest. Just because id say the answers given by that group would be probably exactly the opposite answer of both her answers
I like that. I always like to live in an American style.
North or Latin American style? | Пeрeмога Үкраїнi!
I like the premise of this interaction, but I don't understand why these questions are asked to early to mid twenty year old people, who have has less wisdom, less knowledge, and less life experience than to someone who could give better answers because they are in the mid 30's to mid 40's or even 50's.
"I've seen some things." Lauren, What are "things"?😂😂
I know you guys in the US perceive it as polite and hospitable, but for me as a northern German it feels insincere and pranking, no offence. Maybe it's just that I'm not used to it - or maybe it's just us guys from the North Sea coast who are seen a bit more reserved/taciturn/reticent even in Germany-
Is that me or Christina do a lot of hand gesture? I'm totally fine with that, since I'm Italian
POV: you’re watching this video just to learn English 😅
Iconic duo 🔥
After Christina called it a "fanny pack" did Lauren tell her what "fanny" means in the UK? lol
Christina
Lauren reminds me of a British Drew Barrymore.
Yes | Миру мир!
Make America roll again
North or Latin America? | Пусть наш Бог хранит Үкраїну.
One thing I’ll never tire of is that Americans call bum bags, fanny packs. As fanny is British slang for a ladies front bum.
Fanny in the US means butt.
British/UK accent is very sexy for me.. Not just the americans but I think majority of the world love their accent. Very sexy😉

Today i saw real Christina
Not all Americans have guns, but we sadly have more guns than people (roughly 330 million people).
These poor folks really are too young to answer those kinds of questions 🤣... It's fun to watch though 🤣
To most Americans, the British accent sounds like singing to them as compared to the bland and boring American accent.
@@xohyuu
I am referring to the USA.
Are you both and all other guests in the US whenever you make a new video?
There’s major irony in the gun question. Since Boston is one of the few extreme gun restrictive states. Real answer is yes most Americans have guns. And it’s because of the British and because what happened in Massachusetts in the 1700’s.
That's just not true. The majority of people in the states don't own guns. But the people that do own many.
About 1/3 own guns legally, I mean.
I can't say i like british accent in general, but i definitely like Lauren's accent
I can’t imagine not having guns around, I would feel unprotected without it
My two favorite people on here! Love the video I was particularly interested in Lauren's counter points for the UK. "I've seen some things" lol🤣
Sorry, you don't seem to understand the history of your country. I think it's sad to dis the best country in the world, but gosh darn.. I'm just a hick what do I know. I still like you Christine, you are delightful young lady hope you come to realize and understand America..😮
The people that think America is the greatest country on earth mostly lean republican and the people that do not think that way mostly lean democrat (on average).
I've thought of that saying as like an unofficial slogan (I guess the official one is now "in god we trust"? I liked the old "out of many, one" in latin). kind of like a state could be the "sunshine state" and so on. and same way as in advertising, people repeat sayings, kids pick them up without question and years later like programmed robots when someone says "greatest country" the association just comes up like the McD jingle. readjusting from meme to fact based opinions can be hard
[ America is the greatest country ] > It is a huge continent | Пeрeмога Үкраїнi!
@@xohyuu No North America is a huge continent just like South America is a huge continent. When you use the word America without north or south anyone with the brain knows you're talking about the United States of America.
Anyone with the brain may call America a continent at all times@@xshadow737x5 | Пусть наш Бог хранит Үкраїну.
Hey shall we increase the world population?
Interesting question, and some of them a little bit spicy hahaha
I love Christina + Lauren duo!
Other things common in USA: hotel rental for an hour even though one cannot go more than 5 minutes. ...paying child support for someone's else kid ( because your wife forgot to make him wear condom) .....
Christina is dancing in her chair
💃💃
Seems like Lauren has got a lot closer with Christina than before.
Judging from her voice, I hear some slight British dialects from her due to her being relaxed?
Real patriotic Americans do not see the USA as the best country in the world. They know there is no such thing as a best country in the world.

It's weird how unfriendly people are in other countries. Not wanting friendly small talk or interactions when out and about.
Writing a comment i think that 35th number writes a thought to first five
Could you guys add a Georgian person as well?
Yesssss. Georgia here and this lady representing the USA is not a typical American. I dont know how they do things where she is from but if she said some of the things she did down south, she'd get some dirty looks and a few bless your hearts.
My idea of America is basically New York. You know, restaurants, barber shops, pizza places, some fat guy with a pompadour, a bowling shirt and a golden necklace. You know what I'm talking about
If you want authentic pizza go to Italy not the US.
@@patrickmccutcheon9361 I live in Italy. My personal opinion, pizza in the style of Napoli is superior, big crust and soft paste. Second is pizza in the style of Rome, thin and slightly crunchy. If anyone offers you a pizza in any way different than this run, it's probably gonna be some weird thing originating in northern Italy
You forgot the diamond pinky ring, just saying.
@@patrickmccutcheon9361 Pizza as a fast food around the world is highly Americanized. Also, Chicago, NY, and Detroit Pizza is a ligitimate cuisine, despite you hating everything that American.
@@davidcosta2244 I actually like much about the US, especially the can do attitude and innovative spirit. Less so the gun culture where you run the risk of being killed when go to a supermarket, church, school or gay bar. I like the food except for that served by the chain restaurants, especially the fast food chains. That said, there are some authentic pizzeria in Brooklyn.
😍
I missed this duo so much 💖
I think I may have a crush on Cristina..
You two are great in these videos...
Thank you, girls! Fantastic video!
2 people talking in perfect English, so why are there subtitles?
Wow, I can't believe she said definitely not to America being the greatest country. That is a political issue. The left says hell no, the right says hell yes.
There is no left in the USA. It doesn't have to be a better country than others. That isn't patriotism; that is nationalism! Christina aknowledge that her country has issues and she's vocal about it. Wanting to better your country isn't bad...

Here's a good video idea...have people from all over the world read the first 10 Amendments to the United States Constitution and see if it makes sense to them
Just have Prince Harry do it because he is CLUELESS!!
Scrap the constitution cause clearly it’s not working with the countries best interests at heart.
but like, why?
Answer: No, it doesn't

There are 400 MILLION guns in private hands the United States, and the past two years of "mostly peaceful" violence has led millions of people who didn't have guns to buy them. There are some Federal laws restricting them, and most states have additional laws. The places with the most restrictions on honest citizens having guns are also those with the most violent crime, because the criminals DO have them (Chicago, Illinois, for instance, or Oakland, Callifornia). Even in states with major cities, once you get away from densely-populated areas the rate of gun ownership goes up. For instance, I live in Nevada, which is mostly rural, with three big cities. Most people in this state have guns, and outside of the cities, a high percentage of people routinely carry them. The state next door, California, has many restrictions, and a corresponding high rate of violent crime.
A recent decision by the Supreme Court found that giving government officials the power to arbitrarily keep people from having guns (laws based in the racist Jim Crow/Ku Klux Klan era) is a violation of the Constitution, so there is likely to be a massive increase in the number of carry permits issued in the states which had those laws. This will lead to a shift in gun ownership statistics. I will be teaching a group of women to handle and select guns this weekend, and what had been intended to be a class of 5 is now going to be a class of 14, with all of them coming from California, expecting the laws keeping them unarmed to be relaxed.
All thanks to BLM xd
People afraid that bunch of thugs and thieves can go in their houses or shops excusing themselves that they are marching for "freedom".
I can sum up your reply with "Shall not be infringed"
@@shure81 Unfortunately, that doesn't explain to a foreigner the complexity of the issue. The more information they have, the more likely to understand.
@@shure81 The constitution merely states that a “well trained and armed militia” may exist for the purpose of keeping the government or a foreign invader in check. Never promised unrestrained weapons of war to the hands of any and every civilian with minimal oversight… furthermore gun violence infringes on Americans’ most basic constitutional rights to life liberty and happiness. The interpretation of the right to bear arms has been bastardized by far right gun company funded groups over the decades and we are now seeing the twisted effects of that deregulation.
@@SoloPilot6 There's no complexity. The right to defend yourself, your property, or your family cannot be taken away by the government.
In the Midwest small talk is VERY much alive and well 😂😂
