AMERICANS VERSUS FOREIGNERS:  

What foreigners like and dislike most about America?!

43-Some TV commercials like these:” Batteries not included” or “Not available in Alaska”, “Additional fees may apply”, “9 out of 10 doctors prefer this over that.”, “buy one, get one free”. The worst of all is what they saw in seafood restaurants!! This is a bigggggy! “All you can eat”.

44- American men and women walking barefoot in their homes. Exclude the Japanese. All other foreigners including the nomads and Bedouins dislike taking off their shoes when they enter somebody’s home.

 Many cynical fashion designers and famous fashion models (men and women) in Paris commented on this American habit and explained to me that “Americans have ugly feet, big and tough feet because they walk barefoot at home.”, they added: “Many American men have bizarre shape of feet and distorted toes nails because they walk bare foot and wear very cheap shoes. American women who wear all time snickers and jogging shoes have usually two toes “exuberantly and drastically” bigger than all the other toes. They stick out like an escargots pair of forks.” How about that??? Something else. According to them, all those who walk barefoot are low class and are not to be trusted because they have lost their sense of refined manners and etiquette.
