   Roughly 30 questions a day about y2k.

2. Is life in America really like 90210?

3. Do Americans really stick their dicks in apple pie?

4. I watched Home Improvement. Why are all Americans obsessed with their tools having more power?

   Also, why wouldn’t you hire a professional to remodel your home when obviously it is very dangerous?

5. “Americans, why do you wear these silly JNCOs all the time?”

   “I just saw *Kenan and Kel*. Do Americans really love orange soda this much?”

   “Why are you Americans invading newly democratic Eastern European countries with your McDonald’s junk food?”

   “I just saw a documentary about the *Titanic*. Why did you Americans put an iceberg to sink it? Were you jealous of the Brits building such a beautiful and strong ship?”

   “Why do Americans like these hideous frosted tips in hair? I just saw NSYNC with them, and your guys must all be like that.”

   “You guys hosted the World Cup but couldn’t win it. Why do you Americans suck at football so much?”

   “Are the Spice Girls popular in America too? They are heard everywhere in my country.”

   “Does anyone else feel that the allegations against Michael Jackson are baseless?”

   “I am having trouble understanding Nirvana and Pearl Jam. What language are Kurt Cobain and Eddie Vedder exactly speaking?”

6. “I read about the OJ trial, and I assume that’s how all legal issues are handled, why is your system like that?”

7. Why do American use Internet Explorer when Netscape is the superior web browser.

8. What’s your reaction to the collapse of the Soviet Union?

9. I’m planning a trip to Los Angeles next month. Is it safe to go you know because of all the Oklahoma City Bombings and stuff?

10. Why do you just walk into your neighbors’ apartments without knocking? Don’t you have any manners?

11. Why do Americans listen to American bands, especially grunge? Is it because they’re not aware of other countries’ music? No offense.

12. Are all Americans like those on Jerry Springer?

13. Why do you use IBM computers when the ZX Spectrum is superior?

14. “WHAT’S WITH THESE CULTS? Is everyone in a cult? Are *you* in a cult?”

15. What do you think of the Y2K panic? Is it justified, or overblown?

    What’s going on with the Clinton impeachment?

    Did OJ do it?

    What is a “hanging chad”?

16. Let’s say this sub existed from 1970 to 1980 – what would the most interesting questions of the era be?

17. “What is the average Americans opinion on the war in Iraq?”

18. 2pac or Biggie?

19. Are there a lot of cults like the Heavens Gate in other parts of the US? Have you ever met people like them?

20. Cold War, preparing for year 2000, fashion trends, Clinton and Lewinsky, various questions based on 90s sitcoms, Gulf War, N64

21. “Do you believe Anita Hill?”

22. “Do people just hang out at coffee shops in America? It seems like that’s all they do in Seinfeld, Friends, and Frasier.”

    “Why does the US care so much that their President cheated on his wife? It’s his private life, and it has nothing to do with politics.”

    “Is the US concerned about a former President’s son running for President?”

    “Why do you love Real World so much? Why do you enjoy shows not scripted that just follow around people arguing?”

23. Why don’t americans pull up their pants? Do you really like having your underwear out like that?

24. Is OJ guilty?

25. Probably a lot of Russians asking Americans their thoughts on Russia or it’s people.

26. “Do y’all think we’re gonna die on New Years?”

27. Early 90s: Is Nirvana dangerous? Does headbanging cause brain damage? Do video games cause children to grow up to be violent? What are we doing about the crack epidemic? Will we ever find a cure for AIDS? Will cell phones replace landlines one day? Which is better – Nintendo or Sega?

    Late 90s: Which search engine is the best? Which is best for web-hosting – GeoCities, Angelfire, or Tripod? Should the supreme court intervene in the Bush/Gore election? Will SNL even be worth watching after Will Ferrell leaves? Will Y2K destroy the fabric of society?

28. It depends on the meaning of the word is. Are you Americans so stupid that your president can’t understand the meaning of a simple word
