美國人超受不了中國人不入鄉隨俗。說實話，我還就真受不了他們地理，曆史，數學知識的貧乏。他們老覺得美國快餐文化應該統治全地球。恕不知，中國人，歐州人都說美國人沒文化。美國人穿的沒品(破破爛爛)，吃的沒品(JUNK FOOD，THANKSGINVG吃南瓜，土豆，老玉米，HAHA，笑死我了) ，玩的沒品(吸毒，酗酒，亂交)，最有品的就是GREEN BILL 了，不過，好象世界貨幣當不了幾天了。好萊汙電影裏基本上沒有稱得上文學的，奧斯卡得獎作品更是汙七八糟，有的比李安的色戒還爛。有時候跟老美談文化，我才更加明白中文中對牛彈琴的真正含義。。。

'全世界的排華浪潮很快要來啦'，不會吧。。。聽著怕怕的。
我覺得國人的確有一些不太好的習慣。好像我們對他人的privacy和權益不是那麽sensative. 但是事情都在改變啊。美國和日本暴富起來的時候去歐洲旅遊，是最被當地人瞧不起的遊客。。。但是慢慢的世麵見多了，就好了。 中國問題多多，但是改變起來，也會很快的。現在大家都搶著跟中國人做生意，看在錢的份上，他們也得忍啊，嗬嗬。不過我們跟外麵交往多了，也會慢慢洗心革麵的， i believe.
