Oh hey~ It’s Emma. Thanks for having me 🫶🏻 ☺️
Ok
Running away from a gas station without paying is useless because they will have you on camera, either your face or the plates or both no matter what. They can just call the police and they will get you. You would have to conceal yourself and take off the plates, granted you won't be caught by police by accident early for NOT having plates lmao. It's too much hustle.
Theft under $1000.00 so police won't spare the effort to track.
air con is so expensive in germany, we have so high electricity bills you would work only for the ac
no, it is not. to this day i do not get why people claim that. you need about 100kW/h. if you consider running for about 6 hours a day (and you really do not need more with our isolation), that a running cost of about 6€ per month. people in germany just do not realize how efficient ac actually is ...
I’ve driven off before. Twice. Once I realized later in the day and came back. The clerk had made a note but didn’t get my car’s plate numbers. Evidently it happens a lot, but people return often enough that it’s not worth the trouble trying to apprehend someone.
The other time, it was my neighbor’s station, and he went to my house and let my son know I could swing by and pay anytime. My kids won’t let me live that one down.
The embarrassment has been enough to keep me on the straight and narrow ever since.
3:27 she‘s right! With your parents permission you can drink beer, wine, champagne at 14
I don't know about Germany, but it should be noted that construction with drywall is used all over the world. BTW, my main floor wall structure in Canada was made with cinderblock and it was a pain to update it, as the electrical boxes were originally in holes chiseled right into the cinderblock. (Our insulation is exterior.) The electricians didn't want to chisel new electrical boxes for our new kitchen, so we built another internal wood framed wall in front of the cinderblock just to accommodate the new electrical wiring (and some new plumbing).
In Germany, drywall walls are only used for renovations. For example, room division.
"we're not monsters... anymore" with the timing 😂😂
You can own a gun at 18 in the USA..... but not drink alcohol until 21....
Greetings from Germany.
Collecting bottles: our children were allowed to keep the deposit money if they delivered the collected bottles to the store.
Gasoline prices and theft: I remember in the 1980s thieves often stole gas directly from a filled-up car. The fuel tank lock on our car was also broken and the petrol was pumped out. In larger cities you often cannot find a parking space right in front of the door or this also happened in Park & Ride places because the thieves were sure that the car would not be moved for several hours.
Since we rarely use such parking spaces now, I can't say whether this still happens or happens again.
Air conditioning: some offices and shops use these, but employees often feel uncomfortable because the constant movement of colder air quickly causes neck and shoulder pain.
At my workplace, therefore, often only the units in the corridors were switched on and those near the actual workstations were switched off.
Drywall: rarely found, sometimes after renovations or on upper floors of new buildings. But these walls are still thicker than those in America and are usually installed with metal studs.
Where are the Germans?

Nikki is like lovely beautiful barbie doll, made in Germany!😍❤️
Very nice 👍☺
In m school, staff and students have separate restrooms
Thumbnail flag: The Star-Spangled Banner has fifteen stars and fifteen stripes as provided for in the second Flag Act approved by Congress on January 13, 1794. The additional stars and stripes represent Vermont (1791) and Kentucky (1792) joining the Union.
We have bottle deposits in California. Doesn't really stop littering.
Bring back Changyu ❤❤❤
Bring back Changyu ❤❤❤ please
Where does Emma live? In big cities every residence gets personal garbage and recycling bins and pays through their utility bill.
I explained that part but it got cut. That was in yeehaw Virginia (and mostly for large items). We had the recycle and trash bins too!
@@AnywayEmma Hi Emma. Thank you for responding! I wonder why they cut out that info. It’s important for context. I hope you enjoyed your time on Giggle!
@@taoist32thanks for watching 😊
Lol
Nikki is beautiful
14 with your parents….
한국어 번역 좀 넣어주지
Wow, the girl with the dark hair is so beautiful. I'm sure there is a french influence. Could it be? She look's like 80's dreamgirl Sophie Marceau ("La Boum").❤❤❤
The American girl isn't very versed on anything in america.
I’m American and I’d say she was spot on! I agree with everything she said.
@@nailartguy3363 well you must live in a bubble.
@@JohnDoe-xq8sk I have lived in many states and been exposed to many different and diverse communities. If you are the one who isn’t familiar with the things she talked about in the video (with which I agree based on my many life experiences), then it seems like you might be the one who lives in a bubble. For this reason it makes me think your response to me is what is called “projection”. Just because people have different experiences than you doesn’t mean they live in a bubble. The fact that you assume that might reveal more about you than it does anything else.
