USA - Here follow some US-specific facts and cultural references that non-USians are expected to know..

Something I have wanted to verbalise for a very long time but couldn't because I'd just come across as a raving lunatic. I'm Australian, but I was born in China. I lived there and then in Ireland during my formative years. So yes, word to everything on the list.

Especially number 6 & 10.

Haha. I knew what you meant.

In relation to the health care system - exactly. The Australian health care system isn't perfect but it gets me by.

I blame the media for saturating the youths of today with so much American jargon. It just makes me annoyed - I mean if I'm considerate enough to get to know their little quirks and accept them (the spelling), the least they can do is respect my quirks and NOT correct me spelling.

"A university... is a college?"

O.M.G. Some days it just isn't worth it.
