UK people bring over 240V electronics to the US and they work, albeit at half-capacity.
Hair drier took forever to work (using american 120V while needing 240V to work correctly)
Fries 120V-rated electronics by using an outlet converter on a 240V outlet (HUGE RISK, too)
I'm not one to make fun of the people who don't care to learn technical bullshit because clearly, not everyone is into it and that's okay. But this one stood out to me because it just assumes that everything electrical works badly in Europe, when it's the opposite. Electric kettles are awful in the US, and other 120V countries, while in Europe they work extremely quick. So their whole thing is "i don't understand electronics thus USA #1", which... okay.
Lol trying to go at the Uk in particular about electricity is goofy to me. At least to my lamen eyes the Uk system seems way better thought out, even their plugs and stuff (other than the whole it laying face up on the ground and turning into a caltrop thing).

60 seconds to tea or coffee at any time. If I need my caffeine I need it NOW.
If you're a coffee nerd like me you need to wait at least 4 minutes for the damned thing to steep.
