The Great American Dream
An average American gets married so many times that they made a reality show out of it. And in spite of my best efforts to avoid it, I ended up watching one. Its that mystical attraction that the disgusting has. Like how a few of my friends love "Nothing In the World" just because its a Paris Hilton song and listen to it only to criticize her vocal abilities.
Anyway, the show is called "For Better or for Worse". Quite a rhetoric, any American show about marriage has to be for worse.
Also seen recently is an advertisement about American Green Cards and how the country hands over 50,000 green cards in a drive to increase average IQ levels of the country.The approximate transcript says something like "Now, even you can Live,Work and Study in the USA and live the Great American Dream!!"
Great American Dream eh? They should call it GAD. There's already a band called Gatsby's American Dream that's called GAD.
Not so surprisingly, medical fraternities would squirm at GAD. It stands for Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Which of course means that you worry about absolutely everything and believe the world is snapping at your arse ready to snatch you state of peaceful existence drown you into cauldrons of misery. Not so surprisingly, one of the main sources of GAD could be WMD in Iraq.
Other versions of the Great American Dream include a startling discovery by a female American Senator, made popular by a youtube video, that claims "..we have seen societies being destroyed by homosexuality, which is more dangerous than terrorism.." . There you go. Generalized Anxiety Disorder again. Really? Can two men making out cause the fall of towers? or the absolute annihilation of countries?
I would love to change my impression about the world's foremost superpower and believe me I'm trying. Maybe I'm not smart enough.

Let me tell you some of the things I saw here that may have some vague connection with what your trying to say...
1. The French are snobbish
2. They dont like the Americans
3. They want to do everything American
In short..they want to live the GAD in France and yet deny it. There is something about the desirabilty of the GAD and the reason a lot larger number than 50000 people are seeking the GAD..
Seriously?
OMG even the French are infected.
The only thing that can save us now is an alien attack.
Its that mystical attraction that the disgusting has. Perfect :D
Waise, regarding GAD, I don't think it's surprising - a number of youtube videos and general knowledge shud tell u that theyre a dumb dumb nation...few exceptions at the end of the bell curve, but the hump is damn skewed to the left! :)
