8. “The cute-sounding police sirens in Europe. In America, the police sirens seem like an urgent, semi-deranged warning to GTF out of the way, like ‘SHIT’S GOING DOWN AND I’M NOT THERE!! MOOOOOOOOVE!!!!!!!!’ Meanwhile, every European police siren I’ve heard just kind of politely annoys you out of the way. Like ‘bee doooo bee doooo, pardon me but a spot of bother has occurred and I must hasten to it, pardon me as I simply must attend to it, pardon me.’
“And the police cars themselves are so small. American police cars are big and brawny like they might need to make their own garage door into a building.”
