hey CCARNEL, good lookin' out, thanks buddy (thanks for backing me up)
and dubai,
i'm from israel, so i think i'm a little more educated culture wise (than what you give me credit for), seeing as i've been exposed to many different nationalities that were always around me, other than my own, and i think a year around europe also opened up my eyes to different things and people... so please don't belittle me as you just did.
just like ccarnel said and i've said before, i wasn't poking fun at your outfit, i was just stating what i thought it looked like.
picking out minuscule words in what i type, and pointing out to me that i misspelled them is rather immature.
i doubt we all type this on Microsoft Word and double check our errors before submiting a responce onto here.
but hey, at least i'm smart enough to know we drive AN s2000, and not A s2000 like EVERY single person on this board types!
(not saying that you do this, however, it just annoys me when people type that)

The would be grammar lessons but that is besides the point.
Is anyone sick and tired of the international community's assumption that American's do not understand culture. It pisses me off. Why should we be expected to know anything about the culture of Dubai, or who cares. My college was 25% international and I was friends with Saudi's, Kuwaiti's, Doobie's (sp?) and people from all over the world. Every international friend I had thought American's were uneducated about foreign culture. Well, reality is we don't need to know much about American culture while the rest of the world NEEDS to understand American culture.
BTW: you look like a ghost in the picture anyways so no one could distinguish what you were talking about.
Not to mention that for correcting someone's spelling it appears as though you should check your own post, I would say they appear to be at a 3rd grade level. No offense meant just trying to drive the point home.

From: Gunma Prefecture,
Do yourself a favor, don't correct someone else's grammar when your own drivel is in Engrish! If your going to act high and mighty you better damn well be able to back it up (second language or not). Tommy's right, you can't make out what the hell your wearing in the picture. It's your condescending attitude that creates animosity between cultures. I'm so sick of the rest of the world walking around with this big envious chip on their shoulder about America. Get over it!
