This is a thoughtful reply. I will just say that the UK also has public toilets all over the place, and a desire for people to not screw & get high in the cubicles. Ditto many other countries. But I've never been anywhere else with this door gap problem, where no-one gets privacy.

I did once use a UK bathroom in a supermarket where the lighting was all blue, which makes it hard to find a vein to inject. But the doors still closed properly.

Sir, pride in the sanctity of the Queue is reason enough alone.

Seriously though, being in places where people don't queue properly is miserable. That's something America should be applauded for.

You don't have separate recycling? With recycling bins & separate food waste collection, our general waste wheelie bin takes ages to fill up...

Come visit the UK. We have fluid ounces too, but only for baking. Your drink will be served by the millilitre, unless it's beer in a pub, or milk in a home, in which case it will be served by the pint.

Sticker price isn't the price you pay at the till. Why? Why do you do that.

Massive gaps between the walls and doors of public lavatory cubicles. This is not some mystical, advanced technology. Get it together.

Feel free to post alternative sources.

You'll struggle to find one that doesn't state the same facts: that following forensic investigation the victim's American Bully XL was destroyed, and two dachshunds were returned to their owners without issue.

Oh god, my table had an absolute hoot with Wild Sheep Chase, DM included. Highly recommended.

The dachshunds were returned to their owners. The victim's dog, an American Bully XL, was destroyed.

After investigation, it was determined that the woman in question

is believed to have been killed by her own American Bully XL

The victim's dog

was the only animal to have been destroyed, which they believe to be an American Bully XL

while

two seized dachshunds were returned to their owner.
