Wise guys as in made men. Those who have permanently relocated abroad are members of the "Happier Abroad Mafia". So Winston must be the Godfather, lol.rome86 wrote:As a foreign student living in the US, I love this website.Why do you love it here ? (including the chairman winston)

Why do americans seem so uptight ? they do not do jokes about themselves, they are very proud. That is why everything here is professional, business related.Winston wrote:Another thing that makes us different from the mainstream is that we don't care about what others think.

You see, mainstream people do not care if what we say here is true or not. Truth does not impress mainstream people (like it does us). They care more about looking good to others and not like losers. Looking good, making money and having a stable life are their top priorities, not truth. If their priorities conflict with truth, then truth will be tossed out. We care more about truth though, and not what others think. And we do not worry about looking like losers either.
Those are key ways that we are different from the mainstream. Some will find that refreshing, while others will see that as "weird, odd and loser-like".
The culture in the US is a business like culture. People tend to be uptight, stiff and anti-social, it's the way we are raised. Work is the centerpiece of most people's lives in the US. The first question a person asks you in America is, "what do you do for a living?" Most people in the US don't talk to their neighbors, some people don't even know who their neighbors are!rome86 wrote:Why do americans seem so uptight ? they do not do jokes about themselves, they are very proud.

Dating a woman here is like having a job interview.
