    I mostly threw these out of the top of my head. You’re mostly correct:

    • most people use cards, not checks, but they’re still widely in use. For example if you’re paying a handyman, piano teacher, or just dealing with someone older, or someone who just doesn’t have other ways to receive payment
    • I’m in rural Ohio so I see Amish on the roads all the time. They’re not where it is expressly forbidden, like a divided highway, but you can find them on roads with speed limits around 50 or 55 at times
    • For the windows, the sliding style is what is weird to Europeans. We mostly use the kind that swings out in one direction it the other. American windows make more sense when you take into account that they have screens on them. (I forgot to list screens.)
