exactly. those americans (north americans as much as the south americans) are really overdoing it, coming cross more as annoying, rude and ******** (and in saying this, i realize i may come cross as a quasi-racist or at least a "hemispherist"she fit in without going overboard!
even though the cheese is encouraged by producers, i agree it's overkill and kinda embarrassing^and as a northern hemisphere dweller, even i was annoyed by the obnoxious pointing and overkill poses (kissy faces, winks, etc.).
