#6: Americans Love Them Some Oprah
Every American is well aware of who Oprah Winfrey is. As a TV host and philanthropist, she’s done everything from talk shows to book clubs and even has her own network. Do you know what makes an American freak out? If you tell them that you don’t know who Oprah Winfrey is! They almost take it as a personal insult.
Take this as a life lesson; all you non-Americans. Unless you want an American to go ballistic on you, consider watching a couple of episodes of Oprah or Google her at the very least. If you really want to impress an American, maybe even consider telling a little white lie and say that you’ve met Oprah Winfrey.
