Depends where you go.
Most wooded areas here have ticks. Ticks spread a host of diseases and allergies.
Poisonous snakes can be found in the deep south and out west. The rest of the country has them too, but it's a rare occurrence.
Bears in every wooded area. They have a tendency to pop out when you least expect them. Even in the suburbs.
Poison oak. Poison ivy. Don't touch 'em.
Stay out of the hills and mountains along the US-Mexico border unless you really need drugs.
Don't go to most areas of Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, Memphis, LA, DC, Jackson, and most other big cities.
Watch out for bigfoot and feminists of an unnatural hair color.

Awesome thread
I'm from Norway
Questions about Australia:
I've been watching border patrol...
- If I ever visit, do I like have to be really careful about what I bring and know every last detail of where I am going, how long I am staying in each place etc for them not to think I am a terrorist?
...or is it just the idiots that get stopped and asked those questions for acting oddly?
I realize it's a big place... but :
- Where do I go if I don't want to be stuck in the big city, but still have some civilization around (so I don't get myself killed by something poisonous )
How easy is it to get from Australia to New Zealand? (How long does it take if you depart from a logical place)
(How can I win the lottery so I can come over?)

Very cool thread.
1. Smucker's is grape flavored corn syrup. It's fake.
2. A ton of diners in my area. I live in the south and I don't think there's a town without one, but they're disappearing slowly.
3. This is my favorite question because I can understand why you're asking. Yes - without listening closely it would seem that radio broadcasters have a touch of the queen's english accent. But they don't. What they have is an exquisite sense of decorum and etiquette that has since been largely lost. I was watching an old game show on line that aired in the 50's I think that was called "What's My Line". It's irrelevant what it was about, but what was stunning to me was the immaculately polite and concise language everyone used. I think there was this gentility and formality with which people of that so called "Greatest Generation" of people used with each other that's sadly lost. Their children probably felt oppressed and morphed into a hippie generation and while their learned values remained rooted, their language and demeanor were more lax. They begat generation X who learned even less who begat the the millennials of whom you're not going to hear very many good things and a language that's lost the discipline of tact and a productive use of non-accusatory adjectives. Not lost because of rejection, but because we just don't know any better and there's no greatest generation around anymore to teach us by example. Maybe reruns are in order....
Ireland:
1. Do you really hate Americans?
2. If I got the chance to visit, is the southwest the best or is it more of a tourist trap?
3. I have relatives in Belfast and I'd have to visit there, but which is the better city, Belfast or Dublin? I've heard they're quite different.
4. Best places to go?

Just a side note. Irish people who fled the famine were treated like second - class citizens in the US.
...and having escaped from a society that was breaking down, maybe they weren't acting the way they normally would have been themselves?
I doubt modern- day Irish care, but back then it wouldn't be too strange if there were conflicts.
(Just like today, people complaining about immigrants stealing their jobs )

Wanted to share some answers
1)Yup, its a common brand around here. I dont really care for grape jelly though : p
2)Yeah we got lots of them here in my town. Theres actually one not far from my home I really wanna try. They used to have all you can eat pancakes, dunno if theyre still doing that though.
1) Id say its about half and half, but for the most part it seems like the people that like him love him so much that theyll defend him no matter what, and the people that hate him will always hate him no matter what, and that both sides exaggerate their claims about him.
2) I honestly dont know much about Singapore, its not a place you hear much about where I am, sadly. But, Asia in general seems to be super popular with the people of my generation. Everyone around my age that I ask where theyd like to visit, its usually somewhere in Asia (like China or Japan and junk).
3) No idea, I dont know how the people in other countries eat. But Id imagine its true, I mean we event fast food and junk. Wouldnt be surprised if our diet was pretty poor : p
4) Uhhh closest thing Id have to a role model would be my favorite musician, as he does the kinda things I wanna do. And yes hes American : p He lives in California, which is really far away from me, haha : p
Ill ask questions for the next most likely to answer : p
UK
1) What do you think the general views are for Americans in your nation?
2) Do you believe that American pop culture is well liked in your nation?
3) How do you think the people in the UK feel about American foods?
4) Do you think its unfair that Wales is not represented in your nations flag?
5) How much pride do you think the people in the UK have for their own home? (I mean in terms of England, Scotland and Wales)
6) What are some European countries that are well liked by the people in the UK?
7) What are some European countries that are not so well liked by the people in the UK?
8) What is the one thing you love most about your country?
9) What is the one thing you dislike the most about your country?
