    “the” society? “neighbours” in a US-centric meme? who made this?

    edit: I wouldn’t expect someone writing from a US perspective to refer to society as the society, or to spell “neighbors” with a “u”. I mean, I guess people outside of the US can comment and meme on US politics all they want. But, like, memes sowing discord in US politics in an election year coming from non-US sources sorta triggers bad memories for me.

        The meme template uses the UK spelling of “neighbours” instead of the US spelling (neighbors). While I agree the content is obviously US-centric, the spelling and some other irregularities make it unclear whether this meme was made by someone who has ever spent time in the US, which is what OP was pointing out.

      Man, nothing gets by you does it? You’re like a goalie for the Red Sox.
