Languages and nationalities are not a one-to-one match anyway. What would you expect from a Canadian flag? French, or English? The USA has NO official language, so that makes even less sense.
I wish people would stop trying to replace words with cute little images.
Guarantee it'll be called FloorPlanFinalCopy2.ppt and will be for the company's previous office.
Every bad connection in the year 3453 still sounds like analogue static. Every dodgy video connection from a FTL spaceship gets VHS tracking lines as it breaks down.
Aliens connect their nanoprobes to your the main character's PC and download the Internet so they can judge humanity.
Even if they had magic tech to do this, they're still constrained by the MC's shitty 10Mbit DSL. Somehow they can download everything humanity has ever done in 5 seconds, and all while pictures of it are showing up on the monitor for no good reason.
In Scotland we have a thing on some homes - like trailers park sort of things - that requires them not to be used for living for at least one month out of the year. They're cheap to buy (like £30k for a beachside home with a deck and shared facilities) but you're not technically allowed to live there permanently.
My partner has the same name as her mother.
It's not the only way I've got a raise. I also got a raise once by saying I was planning on leaving. But I guess that's pretty similar :)
I'll be your data point on the other side of the record: Tailwind is the worst thing to happen to the web.

Same in Edinburgh. The buses and trams have a capped fee per day but it doesn't count if you're coming from the airport for some reason...
