English Sightings!

So the great (and also terrible) thing about being an American in a foreign country is that you are never really far from our popular culture. I can easily hear American music on the radio. American TV shows are shown (sometimes in Spanish, othertimes with subtitles). And there is English everywhere, or at least attempts at English. I especially love seeing people wearing clothing with English on it that they obviously do not understand.

Here are my favorites:
1. Recently I was in a dance club in Rosario with Katie, Jana, Jon, and our friend Federico. It was crazy-crowded and I was dancing next to a guy that had "We are breaking up" written on the back of his shirt. I got a great picture posing behind him looking sad. Check out facebook b/c it is now my profile pic. The best part--he had no idea.
2. On a crowded bus I saw a woman wearing a tee shirt that said in pink, sparkly lettering "Just Another Hot Pregnant Woman!" She was definitely not pregnant.
3. I was walking down the street with all my laundry and I passed a guy wearing a shirt with a picture of an angry man pointing and the words "Cut Your Mullet!". Naturally this guy had a fantastic mullet himself. It took all of my self restraint not to laugh at him until after I had passed him.
