It’s stunning how many people seem to forget that there are other countries on the planet that use dollars and weren’t involved in Vietnam. No, I’m not making an assumption. The person who posted this is Canadian.

Y’all really need to take a step back and reflect a little bit.

    Which all would be lovely and true if they were American.

    They’re not.

    It’s almost like countries other than the United States exist…

      I know it SAYS they live in Toronto, but they also said “Third Grade” and not “Grade Three”, as would be proper in Canada. Maybe it’s possible they are from the U.S. and currently live in Canada?

      It’s almost like sometimes people move…

        Are those phrases not interchangeable in Canada?

        Saying “# grade” might be more common where I am in the US, but no one would bat an eye if you said “grade #” because that is used commonly enough as well that people are used to it.
