In the last day I've been gobsmacked at the space snowman that exists out in the far regions of the solar system
It's called Ultima Thule and was discovered by the NASA New Horizons probe

I've also consumed products or services by names such as Gillette, Google, Bing ( Microsoft ), Facebook and Jim Beam Red Stag.
What products or services have you consumed in the last day that originated in the USA, that you probably wouldn't admit to in polite society, but don't mind admitting to in this wonderful anonymous betfair forum?

Why would we be embarrassed to admit using US products? Make murrica gr8 again!

Well Just Checking it's to do with British values - which are tolerance, fair play and support for the underdog. And because the Union States of America are never the underdog, and the rest of the developed world likes to think itself superior for some reason, it's considered impolite to announce at a dinner party "I think facebook is cool and probably pays the amount of tax that the law requires" or "I've just had a great session on google maps looking at red lig . . ."

I hate facebook so I'm ok there ;) Gillette, I'm never buying one of their products again. American beer is meh. But Family Guy is starting, I'm guessin that counts.
I wonder what % of stuff is made in china these days? By concidence earlier I was looking at a couple "made in" labels and thinking that. |

I could not care a less where products I use or consume come from to be honest
 I am impressed by Americas Science, I would like us to land on Mars, and suspect only the Americans could afford this. All countries have their good and bad points, nobody is perfect, although the Americans sometimes think they are. One could never accuse them of false modesty. |
