I've recently been pondering the idea that even with my receding hairline, I could still grow a mullet. I haven't shaved my head now for a month and a bit, and I'm considering just letting it go.
I grew up in PA and moved to Texas for a while and everyone in Texas teased me for being from the North and called me a Yank and I was like "Lmao if you only knew the level of redneck I grew up around, it would put all of you to shame"
This is so American like I can feel the essence of a different culture. I don’t know why I like America since I was a 12 yo, and wanted to visit so much but never had a chance.
I’m American and I hope you can come visit some day. There are many interesting places to see and things to do here. And despite what you hear on Imgur sometimes, it’s not all completely terrible here. Haha! Many people are very kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, the worst of us are also the loudest.
It’s not American, but it so totally is… It’s performative self-parody. The contestants are performing. Look at the crowd. They’re laughing, not really judging… not even internally.
With some exceptions, part of American culture is to celebrate and mock American culture. We’re the greatest God-blessed country in the world, all we touch is black gold, and so on… we go big.
This show isn’t about having the best mullet. It’s about having a show about having the best mullet. That’s truly American.
There are so many different parts of America to visit! As an American myself, I can say this aspect of 'our' culture is so foreign to me, it might as well be another country. I could probably spend years on a roadtrip in the US and still miss half the cultures represented within its borders.
We got a whole variety of culture here. Loads of food and drinks too, that is always popular. I like the natural resources, like parks. We have some amazing federal and state parks in every state. I have enjoyed the ones out west the most. I want to go feral in Zion. I went there on a school trip that was poorly planned and almost froze. I had a great time!
Just like anything with people, it's complex. I think you can say "America has let capitalism run rampant, destroying healthcare and education, and causing so many to struggle" and at the same time also believe that America is full of diverse and wonderful people, from our California surfers to our Texas ranchers, from our Wisconsin cheeseheads to our Florida Man. Humanity is beautiful, and I think despite our many, many problems, America and Americans are beautiful.
The biggest issue I think regarding America is that it's extremely hard to tell how people in any location are going to react to a specific thing.
You can make some basic assumptions that generally hold true, like many people along the bible belt being less accepting and more hateful towards things unlike themselves. But you can also find extremely welcoming and progressive communities within that area and horrible racism and bigotry in areas that otherwise skew progressive.
I dunno. I don't think I'd say that's the biggest issue. But, I think your point stands that the US is not a homogenous monoculture, and I'd add that all attempts to make it so are incredibly un-American.

The second I saw the kid in the yellow shirt and sunglasses I was like "yea that's the one"

One day I too will ish to rip off my t-shirt to reveal another, smaller, t-shirt under the first t-shirt.
Maybe spice things up with a long sleeved shirt under the t-shirt under the t-shirt.

I want to get a mullet, but my hair is way too long, and I don't wanna cut it.

I want to get a mullet, but I don't have hair on top anymore. Can't rock the skullet.
ComoSeIguana
My brother has a skullet. He can surprisingly pull it off.
TheJuiceLoosener
The beauty part is that if you tire of the mullet, guess what? You're like four snips away from a boss rat tail!
PastureofMuppets
With a mullet you can have both!

I love the PA farm show! Tractor square dancing, sheep to shawl competition and giant butter sculptures the size of real cows! That's entertainment!

It’s not American, but it so totally is… It’s performative self-parody. The contestants are performing. Look at the crowd. They’re laughing, not really judging… not even internally.
With some exceptions, part of American culture is to celebrate and mock American culture. We’re the greatest God-blessed country in the world, all we touch is black gold, and so on… we go big.

Australia has it's own mullet championship (Mulletfest)
memedrift2410
It's not "American". It's redneck, a subspecies of American. It's like seeing a Flamingo and saying "that's so bird!"
Snuggelapolous
It's such a huge place. Any regions you are particularly interested in visiting? There is still time before the apocalypse.

skip the mullet competitions and find a small-town rodeo.

Please don't let the anti American imgurians cloud your own judgement. This country is wonderful.

It was wonderful then they turned it into strip malls and concrete as far as the eyes can see
