God that smug dickhead sucks. Especially when I heard him talk about what he thinks are the "ins and outs" of nuclear and electrical generation. Ignorant overconfident cringelord.
Oh I'm sorry, did I offend you and your love of concrete hellscapes full of gas stations, strip malls; lining endless stroads with wide lanes clogged with penis enhancing oversized, non-hauling trucks. Truly a modern marvel of urban design that is inviting for living-- not.
Later on he had moved to Cornwall. Cornwall, Ontario, Canada. BTW AFAIK Celine Dion and Rachel McAdams were born there, too. I'd guess OP (or whoever originally made this meme) also heard it from No such thing as a Fish.
Well... maybe its me and the terrible environment I create in some of my shitposts. It's like casting an AOE poison spell when I say X thing everyone here likes is bad. Tends to create a somewhat hostile comment section. Maybe it's that a ton of people on Lemmy truly believe everything they think is objectively correct.
I can spot your account a mile away. (That’s a good thing)
Also London Ontario has some nice areas and some shitty areas like anywhere else but it’s not a bad city all in all. I don’t think I’d move there but I’ve been many times and it’s alright.
The reason people hate America... well. One reason people hate the United States of America is that (some) Americans don't know that Canada is a different country.

Funny thing is... there's 10+ McDonald's' within walking distance of Big Ben.

As an American, you vastly overestimate the radius of 'walking distance' from a given point

These are all distances I've walked a number of times... often drunk.

Yes, there are lots of beautiful places in the Americas, people just don’t like the USA, the country.
They are probably better off just going to Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean instead and skipping the USA politics.
