I've notice in DC, but not exclusive, that they tend to say 'I'm gonna let you go ahead and do that' or 'I'm gonna let you go right ahead and fix that up'.
'I'm gonna let you go ahead and....' it's like they're giving you permission and it gives off this sense of self righteousness and arrogance.
I'm sure they don't mean it like that but it's kinda just weird and different and probably comes across that way as a foreigner. It's like how they say 'isn't it?!' when they're agreeing with you.
I say 'ta' a lot as in 'thank you' and I'm not sure if they understand that. They're probably thinking 'wtf is TA?! you swearing at me b****?!' lol.
Went to the Capitol building tour today and the library of congress. The architecture is so intricate and detailed in their carvings as well as paintings.
The ceilings in the Capitol building are detailed with 24ct gold leaf and all the statues and sculptures represent something.
The paintings and artwork in the Capitol are representative of a significant time in history and when certain things happened to shape America.
Walking around so much really makes you tired so I'm gonna nap and then continue the mall on a bike. Yay bike ride!!
Oh yea, happy Australia day!
