Specialized Turbo Vado SL: An Incredible E-Bike (User Club)

I'm originally from Jersey and we called the sea - the shore. And now in North Carolina - it's the beach. Me - I head to the ocean, mostly. Can everybody sea that?

I was born in New Jersey. We went to the shore, or seashore, every summer. After leaving NJ and moving to CT, it became the beach. Now on the Cape, it's either the ocean (Nantucket Bay) or the bay (Cape Cod Bay), because they are very different.

Why so serious?

We generally say "going to the beach" in Southern California. Northern California has a more rocky shoreline, so people say "going to the coast" sometimes. However, restaurants that serve fish are known as seafood restaurants throughout the state.

Drum roll, please....


And now ladies and gentlemen, the #1 reason that every American knows "sea"...

Closely followed, of course by...

Cape Cod Chips. Sadly, they are not being made on Cape Cod anymore.

A friend of mine brought back a big hunk of rock salt for me after touring a salt mine during a work trip to Poland. Maybe sea salt isn't a thing there.

So the "fun fact" was the statement that enraged you? Edited.
I'm so sorry you perceive all Americans as geniuses. Talking about my own nation, I would say a great deal of my compatriots are just idiots. Approximately 51% of the Polish voters are.

That’s a coincidence…..51% is the number of the UK population who voted to come out of the EU. I’m not really being fair as they are not all stupid….sadly just a little gullible perhaps.
Anyway everyone knows that the Americans, Polish or even the English don’t speak English properly. That honour goes to us Scots!

Then how come every time a Scot pops up in a British murder mystery, my wife and I have to back up and turn on the English subtitles to figure out what the heck he's saying?
