[Awww, Mike. You've definitely been adopted bro, this is your life now.]
Nothing bad! It's just that, like you've probably noticed, my three Chinese friends here all grew up in a very formal society, and it seems like the majority of Trench is, if not Western per se, at least from cultures that are American or European-derived, you know what I mean? So I'm trying to be a bridge and help them adapt, but I'm not actually Western myself, so there's going to be some gaps, you know? I'm afraid you're going to end up being held up as an example a lot, sorry about that. XD;
I'm also Chinese, for the record, but I grew up in a different, less stratified China than they did. Different worlds, different normals, you know?
