And there's more to american culture than fast food and capitalism, just as there's more to japanese culture than caligraphy and bonsai trees. Point being, there's good and bad, beauty and hideousness in every culture. After all, look at the high suicide rates in Japan. Cherry picking the bad of American to compare to the good of others doesn't make other cultures better. That said, I'm not claiming american culture better than others either, each culture has its own merit and reason for being in the first place.

Also, are you trying to say that those people that make one hobby they take seriously to be their sole defining personality trait aren't insufferable as well? We get it, you like (insert hobby here), now shut up about it.
