Chris ABRAHAM on Nostr: We Americans have zero spidey sense for having the Mickey or the piss taken out of ...
We Americans have zero spidey sense for having the Mickey or the piss taken out of us. We’re dead serious and miss the joke even when it’s right in our grill.

Brits learn to laugh at themselves decades before Americans do.
