Who taught you
- to knock the place people live;
- to complain about the ethnic/racial makeup of a neighborhood you are walking through (as you are walking past people of that ethnic background);
- to call local art "propaganda";
- to interrupt;
- to bring up topics of religion, politics, or law and argue the hell out of it with your hosts;
- to walk around a large city remarking that some areas smell like "dead animals", "raw fish", or "Mexico";
- to be taken to a lovely Italian restaurant which your hosts love and complain that "it's not what you were expecting";
- to describe how little you enjoy hanging out at bars because "they're too noisy";
- to complain that "fancy restaurants don't give you enough food to eat";
- to complain that the National Constitution Center consisted entirely of "propaganda" that promoted the end of slavery and women's suffrage (as if these things should not have happened!);
- to complain that anyone of any color other than white has no right to live in this country;
- to describe Mexicans in general as "dirty, lazy and the scourge of our civilization";
- to complain about surfing and the ocean because you think surfers are "assholes";
- and to all around represent my hometown as bigoted jerks who have never left their tiny little bumfuck town?

When I told Buzz about this he simply motioned his thumb to the right as if saying "if that was my guest I would have shown him to the door."
Sorry, kiddo. You don't deserve that kind of abuse.
