Dear Africa,
We’re sorry about thick denim, non-breathable flannel and just plain stiff polyester—it’s simply much too hot here for that. You were right, clearly the loincloth was a much better idea. In the future, we’ll try to be more vigilant of your climatic needs when imposing our culture on the rest of the world. In the meantime, try to stay in the shade!
Friends ‘till the end,
The good ‘ol US of A
P.S.: Colonialism wasn’t such a good idea either, but you’ll have to call Europe for that one. I know, tell me about it, they did the saaaame thing to us!
