#1
General Facts:

1) American society is one of mutual imitation.

You also know you are American when:

1) You speak of how great your family business in America is in order to pick up girls... Only thing is that you omit the fact that your family's "business" is goat herding...

2) You wear a leather jacket no matter what the weather is like, all in the name of being "cool"...

3) You drive around in a pimped out BMW or Benz and wear designer fashions to impress your colleagues, friends, and people in general... But you hide the fact that you live in a hut...

4) You take the song "I wear my sunglasses at night" to heart...
