Ehhhhh...

Given how dominant English has been on the world stage for decades, there's been a few times in my life where I'm listening to someone speak English and I didn't realize that they weren't American/AngloCanadian. (Dear Canadians, I am sorry, but like, dude our accents right on each others borders are near indistinguishable)

Nope, Dean Kamen is still alive. The owner of the segway company however did fall off a cliff to his death while on a segway.

I don't think Ethiopian food gets the respect it deserves. There's a place I've been going to for years, pretty much always get lebleb tibs and that injera bread is so good. It's spongy and has a slight sour taste to it that's so good with the rest of the food.

I really wish more Americans understood soft power and how much we used to have. Hell, I was on vacation to Montreal a few years back and I ran into a dude from France there. You know what we did? Quoted American TV to each other, in English. He knew lines from futurama and archer in English.

Hell at work I run into a lot of Germans and French folk and dispite not using imperial they knew how far a mile was in kilometers (1.6 for the curious)

Having read half-ish of his wikipedia article, the only thing I'll correct you on is his age, 25, otherwise that's on point.

high in fats, sugars, and possibly moisture spoil so easily.

I went to the henry ford museum like a year and a half ago, they had Pokémon red and blue on display and I felt that in my soul and bones.

You're making the positive claim, the burden of proof is on you.
