Yeah, when I came over here I was surprised to see candy bars in vending machines instead of cigarettes.
When I was 18 I drank some beer at a party in Alabama and walked back to my apartment with my bottle of Moosehead in hand. In the parking lot next to the police station I got arrested and those vandal cops poured out my beer!
I had no idea why they were doing this to me, because I was only doing what I had been taught in German school: if you drink, don't drive 'cause that's dangerous; be a good citizen and walk home.
I was in total culture shock
