  • That’s pretty normal, a few years ago I ran into these Brazilian bikers in Argentina and they didn’t speak Spanish or English, so it was really hard to communicate. We (Spanish speakers) really rely on you guys understanding us. I can read Portuguese without much trouble, though, it’s the pronunciation that gets me.



  • That is not my experience at all. Most Americans get extremely defensive when someone criticizes the US, even people who know better. Many are ok with specific criticism (like, healthcare sucking), but it doesn’t take much for them to revert to 'murican mode.

    I have been living in the US for over a decade and been to 2/3rds of the states.
