Things that are very American but that I forgot about while living abroad, Part 1

I forgot what it was like to have TV, and so I forgot about what it was like to be interested in pop culture media, and I forgot what it was like to internet-follow something.

(American) City Problems

I used to open my windows in Jakarta and smell smog.   In Ann Arbor, I open my windows and smell all of the restaurants grilling food I cannot afford.
