(Aug 22 05, 06:08)haaaa you guys laugh, but to be honest, go to any country and there are loads of village idiots running around that wouldn't know Peking from Beijing from Rio. It's not just Yanks you buggers...
Americans just don't care. We don't travel enough and we're too ethnocentric.

(Aug 22 05, 06:11)I met a Portuguese guy in Lisbon who thought that Ireland was joined to Britain by a little rope bridge, that Lucky skateboards were our national representatives and that the movie 'The Devils Own' was based on a true story and that he felt sorry for our politics.
How I laughed

nz is pretty heavily influenced by US culture I reckon. as is most of the western world.
strip malls, big franchised "sell everything super shops" instead of small mom-and-pop neighborhood specialty stores,
shitty urban plastic looking architecture, mini storage for all your worthless crap...
its all going pear shaped down here.but as long as the kiwi DIY spirit and maori culture remain, theres is hope for us.

Nz is ok. It's been on a slow decline since I was born there in the 70s. I think its suffers still from the incredible greed that came out of the 80s. There is now a sense of instead of helping your neighbour you screw them for as much as you can. The housing situation and anything where you have to buy something to live have become more and more degraded and expensive as the population has gone into survival mode. Dairy, food, power, rents, petrol are all becoming harder to afford while wages have remained stagnate since the 90s. It's not third world yet but it's getting there.
