“The British think 100 miles is a long way.

The Americans think 100 years is a long time.”

How is 100 miles a long way? It’s like an hour and a half.

100 miles means I will likely never visit you

You wouldn’t spend an hour and a half to visit me? That seems like you don’t like me very much.

I have some family I visit for a weekend 2-3 times a year, a bit over 400 miles away. It’s a 5.5 hour trip I can knock out in a morning or after work.
