Aside from the guns, most of that is not my America at all.

At least the guns are your America. How very comforting :P

Well, I didn't want to go into it, but unless I'm talking about inner city areas where they have more of a tendency to use them on each other, Indiana is a pretty farmy/hunty place. Lots of us grow up learning gun etiquette and that they aren't to be screwed with. It's like kids who are allowed to drink early, imo. It's less of an issue for them later (usually) because it was never a big deal in the first place.

american culture? - 06/10/2010 04:50:27 AM 698 Views
Some of that may be more European than American culture. - 06/10/2010 04:20:16 AM 667 Views
But circumcision is a hot topic in the US - 06/10/2010 05:42:25 AM 722 Views
It is? - 06/10/2010 06:51:31 AM 760 Views

That surprises me, but alright. - 06/10/2010 10:00:14 AM 688 Views
It is indeed only prevalent among Jews and Muslims - and the old British empire. - 06/10/2010 10:38:07 AM 760 Views
And, apparently, most of Africa. - 06/10/2010 11:46:32 AM 883 Views

You make a good point about tipping - 06/10/2010 09:58:10 AM 706 Views
I disagree - surely tipping is much more internationally widespread than some others in that list. - 06/10/2010 10:43:32 AM 670 Views
Re: I disagree - 06/10/2010 07:41:14 PM 787 Views

Hm. Interesting. - 05/10/2010 05:43:19 PM 622 Views
