I HATE BREATHING “AMERICAN AIR”

In America, it seems like every other person has allergies. My dad complained about how “American Air” is filled with pollen, and now he’s going nuts from his allergy. *Snuff snuff*

Football?

When I was pretty little, I didn’t understand the difference between American football and football. I didn’t know why people call American football “football.” They only use their feet for kickoffs, punts, and field goals. I am still puzzled why in America, we call football “soccer”.

Gunpowder!

Gunpowder. The classical explosive. A greyish dust dropped by creepers. Interesting. Apparently Chinese chemists invented that thousands of years ago, and used it as a primitive cannon propellants.
