What seemed weird when I visited your country
Method of Madness:
Caffeine-free Mountain Dew? :psyduck:
But also, why haven't you gone anywhere?

It probably doesn't come across well on Top Gear since many Americans I know who completely disagree with his views still think he's funny, but over here, Top Gear is just one of the things he's known for and he's a very outspoken, public figure in other ways.
Edit: Biking on the sidewalk is actually illegal in the UK, which is funny because in Norway it's sort of the norm.

He comes off exactly the same as you guys see him over here, Richard comes off as enthusiastic screw up while James comes off as old fashioned, careful, and slow...
Welu:
Clarkson has a page in one of the tabloid newspapers here where he spouts most of his thoughts. I can't remember which or even what he usually says in it, because I only read newspapers if there's one in work's breakroom.

The only form of Mountain Dew I see on a regular basis here is Mountain Dew Energy, which seems to be different from regular Mountain Dew. I've never tried it.

Reading the link from the first post has made me scared of American bread. Is it really that sweet? I love bread - real bread, that is. Eating sweet bread all the time.... god no. Also it would probably make put on 20 kilos in 2 weeks.

If they really think that American bread tastes like cake, they must have some really really bland cake. I have had a lot of different types of bread, and while most of the more American breads are generally sweeter, its not so much as to be anywhere near cake.
