      I feel like this is part of the the joke because Americans often focus on Europeans when metric comes up. I’m Australian, and I have been assumed to be in Europe a number of times by US internet commenters on the topic haha

        There was this one redditor a few years ago who thought I was European because I held different values than him (I’m American). Man am I glad I don’t use Reddit anymore
