Screwed before they even try to start conversation with someone else from another country because of all of the hatred; not even provided a chance to debunk the stereotypes.
American visitor: "Excuse me, sir?"
British native: "Shut up, you fat, stupid American!! Nobody cares; World War II ended over sixty years ago!!!"

Despite conventional intuition, rednecks are incredibly inventive when it comes to engineering.
I've seen a redneck-built jacuzzi constructed from a metal tub, a scaffolding frame, and a fire pit. It may not look very glamorous, but hell, it works, doesn't it?

Sent on a dirt nap; outfitted with cement shoes; deep-sixed. Pwned in a very gangster-esque manner.
Johnny the Rat thought he could get away from the mob, but Vito caught up to him, and Johnny got Al Capwned!

The way that driving has always been done. In order to drive in manual, you control a clutch and a gearshift in addition to gas and brakes. Manual transmissions give you much more information about your car such as its feel, its power, its engine to gear ratios, etc.
Newcomers to manual transmissions often stall out and get frustrated by the addition of extra controls. But if you practice at it a lot, it becomes delightfully challenging, you will feel out of place in an automatic by comparison, and the feeling you get when you drive circles (or donuts) around your friends is totally worth it.
I've been driving in manual transmission for so long, automatic just didn't feel the same. My hand kept reaching for a stick that wasn't there, and I almost hit the emergency brake thinking it was the clutch. I hope automakers keep offering stick-shift models!

The day after Thanksgiving, on which thousands of people flock to the stores like lemmings, risking getting trampled just to save a few dollars even though they have a whole month to do their Christmas shopping.
Also of note: retailers sometimes understock the shelves to create an illusion of scarcity. That "last item in the store" that you just bought was probably one of many "last items" sitting in the store room.
Black Friday makes complete nuts out the sanest people; mothers will kill each other just to get a doll for little Suzie.

Most common method of execution in the United States. Condemned persons are injected with three drugs:
The first drug is a tranquilizer, intended to induce unconsciousness in the condemned.
The second drug induces paralysis, rendering the condemned unable to move or breathe.
The final substance, the killing blow, is potassium chloride; a salt. The saline solution disrupts the conductive flow in the heart muscles, essentially electrically frying the heart muscle and inducing cardiac arrest, killing the condemned.
Although this method is no doubt very effective, it causes undue and excruciating pain in the condemned if the warden misses the vein and the tranquilizer fails to take hold. Supporters of the current method do not seem to realize that prisons can undertake a much easier, much less risky, and much less expensive process by simply overdosing the condemned on the first drug. No pain is felt, and the excessive dose ends the life of the condemned without suffering.
Lethal injection could be a much more humane method of execution if only the government would change the way in which it was done.
