Let me tell you a secret. American culture demands everything. It demands you have money and that you don't, it demands frontiersmanship and beauty and acting skills and plumbing know how.
But above all else, it demands that you know how to tell "culture" to sod off

Become a rebel! Get a black leather jacket. Look up some Korean street fits. Relax your hips, swing a kettlebell around, some a cigarette!
You could be a great rebel, QC
