LOL @ the title of this thread in relation to the absolute garbage that passes as anything more. So many nasty things I could say right now, but I will let that "culture" speak for itself!

Sure, I miss home, but not the lacking job market, crime, lack of affordable housing, and hostilities.

I will surely miss California; and lately, I've been thinking about doing more traveling within the country.

I agree. I think this person's foolish and biased. A ghetto scene depicting America?

Let's go to Robinson Street, CA. How about Texas Street, Pusan, or Ikkebukuro, JA? Are you going to categorize an entire nation by depicting the deplored state of humanity via red-light districts?

This is American-bashing, plain and simple. Besides, this is pop culture. You're the one who turned it on. Turn it off, as most decent Americans do.

Yeah, but that's what the kids dig about you, you see? You represent that culture, can see it in their dress, their habbits/values?

So suck it up, take it like a man, make them realize "it's you."

And those songs they hum to? Fill in the lyrics, see if they understand FU.

Akon sucks. It doesn't matter what your age is. You should be smart enough to realize how bad his music is.

Where's the link to that study that correlates IQ scores to what music you listen to?

Not American, but I do like Disneyworld. That place is awesome. So I would miss the states for that.

Do not care for Akon though. Always found him annoying.
