Cultural differences I don't think so
It's a little more than a year in the US. At the surface the culture here looks totally different from India but after a year I have seen more similarities than I have seen with any other culture. Here are some them
- We have around 50% illiteracy and the US had 51% as of November 2004.
- We have morons who name their children 'Butterfly' and they have morons who name their children 'Finally'. I am not kidding on both counts.
- US and India are probably the only two countries where unusually high number of crappy movies are made and are yet successful.
- We kill in the name of religion and they kill in the name of race.
- We have contributed some cool music genres like Bollywood music and they have Country music and boy are we proud of it. (I happened to drive a few hours through Indiana without my iPod and was at the mercy of the radio stations for music. Fuck I was close to going nuts, every fuckin radio station playing country music).
- We have retards who believe that their language is the mother of all languages and they have retards who believe everyone in this world can speak English.
If any one has observed other similarities please chip in.
