<p>"also get ready for some america-bashing..."</p>
<p>What a great way to make new friends. I'm sure your room mate will love you.</p>
<p>hey, i didn't mean bashing in a douchebaggish, hatist way. it's just that people form this part of the world tend to whine and complain a lot. trust me, so you'll often hear "man, this place sucks. back home i could do this and that". getting used to american life takes more time than you could imagine. besides, there has been a certain sentiment of antiamericanism (more like antibushism) across much of europe in the past few years.</p>
<p>I was just visiting the following in the cc parents page. The thread is listed as " American Stereotypes" and may be of interest to you.

<p>I know what SAT hater means.. i mean it's just normal. XP even when you move from a state to state or even from a city to city, it's perfectly normal to feel nostalgic towards whereever you came from.. (like "they had a bigger shopping mall, better food etc)</p>
