Hey, Lawrence from New York

What is American "culture"?
Well, that can be described as a bunch of fat pricks with money doing nothing for America saying we are #1. There is poverty, but we try to hide that from everybody else.

Americans live in urban apartments, suburban houses, rural houses, or giant mansions in California. I personally want to kill every single fucking mansion person.

America stands for not giving a fuck abou anything. Either that or they pretend to give a fuck. Our politicians are corrupt, we are not helping anything in the world with these wars. Also we have people who say guns kill people when they don't actually do shit.

One word that defines America.
Mainstream

Stereotypes of America are actually true.
Fat, lazy, rich, loud, drunk, listen to nothing but rap, waste money on useless shit, ignorant.

Yes, I have lived here for the last 7 years, wish I could go back to England though, hell even France.

Additional comments:
England did not lose the American revolution, they dropped out because it was starting to be too expensive. Saying they actually lost is like saying America lost the Vietnam War when they actually dropped out. Also America's past is just as violent as England's.

What is American culture?
There's no contigent culture and it depends heavily on your socioeconomic background. The average "culture", however, would be consumerism and escapist entertainment.

How do Americans live?
Oversized everything with complete disregard to practicality and sustainability for the environment and economy (think running your AC day and night in your 6 bedroom house for two people to live in is cheap and practical?).

What does America stand for?
Allegedly freedom, but words are not actions.

Given one word what would be most suitable to describe an American?

Additional Comments relating to Americans:
Did I say they were ignorant and gullible? It's not recommendable to have a country being run by irrational, religious prejudiced people that constantly scapegoat their blunders on minorities or redirect scrutiny to circumstantial sensationalism to avoid paying for their own actions.

What is American culture? -eating/football/work

How do Americans live? -in houses, that are worth less than their mortgage, and they live with a ton of debt

What does America stand for? - it depends on who you talk to but most people would say freedom -> this means different things if you're a republican or democrat. Republicans want freedom of business in a nearly Laissez-faire economy where personal/social freedom is governed by religion. Democrats favor helping the poor through government regulation of business and distributing the wealth but republicans argue that this hurts the economy. Democrats don't want to limit social freedom as much.

Given one word what would be most suitable to describe an American? - enterprising/religous

(was me)

After reading the above posts, just to add a few more points


I need to emphasize that we really don't have vacation days, and i suppose it's why we don't see the rest of the world and are essentially culturally isolated from europe and other countries.

religion is absurdly strong and polarizing especially right now, but this was brought about during the cold war and america's hatred of communist russia that was atheist.

the wars we're in are due to the fact that we are strong, we put in 500billion a year into our defense budget (defense/offense) -that's a lot! After 9/11 happened bush and his cabinet decided that no price was too high to pay for protection -apparently even our personal freedom. Amazingly we'll get into wars over 'freedom' yet we're blind to what's being taken away from us here.

/just a few thoughts

Americans are so caught up in wanting to help the poor that they talk more about helping them than actually helping them. Americans who claim that entitlements are the best for the poor are to unwilling to bring them into their homes or volunteer at the local soup kitchen etc. Rather than help bring up each other, they insulate themselves from the problems and beg government to deal with it. They have become too complacent since industrialization and have much too good a view of their country. Americans often whitewash their country's checkered past. You see it from conservative nationalists and liberals who claim America stands for greatness and freedom when less than 50 years before doctors refused to treat poor blacks with STD's to use as studies and injected South Americans with diseases to study them.

At its best, the USA stands for the things your people honestly believe their government stands for: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Justice for all, that sort of thing. Your goverment, be they red or blue, on the other hand, stand for the status quo, for neo-imperialism the kind of which was thought disregarded in the post WWII world. It stands for flagrant Human Rights violations, both of their own citizens and of foreigners over whom they have no domain. It represents corruption, inclemency and disregard in their purest forms.

Given one word what would be most suitable to describe an American?
Cattle.

Generally, how do most American's live?
Beyond their means. The average bank balance in the USA is $2400 in the red. Your drifting into the domain of a third world country, in terms of your public education and your healthcare, not to mention the rampant lack of regulation and corruption of the richest in your society.
