But not as ubiquitous. Dunno if that's just cos American towns don't have centres for them to congregate in, though.

No.

It's because you would never go to the centers where they do congregate.

The latter are commonly known as ghettos, I believe.

Septics are okay as long as you pump out the sh*t every so often.

And yes, I am referring to yanks

At least that's what I oftentimes think...
I've heard quite a few American men saying over here, "we're pregnant".

No they're bloody well not - their wife/girlfriend is the pregnant one!

Yes I know that the word 'pregnant' means expecting/waiting but when it is in the context of someone carrying a child it normally means the woman is pregnant and not the man!
