As Stella said, it used to be longer. The whole system is weird. Why do you think Americans are so retarded? 😝
I actually never thought the stereotype was fair. Until now that is;)
Of course it's fair. We're an upstart, brash, bragadocious bunch of weirdos and idiots that love to fight but also come up with really brilliant stuff on occasion. And we're totally retarded now. 😅
