Reasons Why New Zealand Is Cooler Than America

So I figured I needed to post something on here, so here it goes. Why I like NZ more than the US, from my nearly 4 months in the country.

1. Sensible drinking age. Like most of the world that isn't America, they figure at 18 if you're deemed an adult, you should be old enough to drink. And I firmly agree. Mostly because I couldn't drink otherwise and living this close to downtown, the bars and clubs are a major source of my entertainment.
2. Censorship isn't as bad. For example, there's a hilarious billboard that's up on the motorway overpass on Khyber Pass Rd that says "I predict this billboard will get a shitload of complaints." I was cracking up laughing, cuz that'd never happen in the US. I also heard uncensored metal on the radio at like 8:30 one night. It made me happy as well.
   
3. Everyone's more laid back. It's true.
4. They have cooler fruit. Like feijoa and passionfruit. And it's delicious.
5. They have a much cooler accent.
6. Everything is multicultural. There are so many Maoris, Islanders and Asians running around everywhere it's excellent.
7. Every little town has everything it needs. At least around here, from what I've seen.
8. Everyone here laughs about military service because they know fighting in Iraq is pointless.
9. Everyone has house parties. All the time. There's yet to be a weekend where I haven't been able to find something to do.
10. I'm here.

And there are 10 reasons off the top of my head why NZ is far cooler than the US. Honorable mention, they use regular buses as school buses (they just slap on a sticker on the front that says SCHOOL) and today I saw a party bus called Purple Rain being used as a school bus. I wish I could've gone to school on one of those...
