In the late 80's I was in a modern art museum in Germany, probably Berlin, and there was a display entitled "The American Wife". The setting was an ugly couch, TV, and a fat woman in a robe with rollers in her hair, cigarette, Jim Beam, and TV dinner leftovers. Not a flattering picture but hey - it's Art
Yes the UA's are still out there, along with the UF's (French), UG's (Germans), etc... I always go out of my way to acclimate to the local language and customs. Setting a 'good' example for us uneducated Mericuns.
Lighten up folks!
