I think what draws people to graffiti those places is that they want to catch your attention on the graffiti not necessarily what is truly beautiful. I mean some graffiti is beautiful and is very cool looking but it truly takes away the peacefulness of something so beautiful. I think it also could be a way for someone to be noticed, to feel like they belong. Something else that can definitely trigger someone to graffiti is that they think that they are adding to the beauty that that place already has. Sometimes that is not always the case. But I guess it is kind of like leaving your mark somewhere. I will tell you this it definitely does stand out. I hate the fact that some people do it, but sometimes there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. Graffiti is a beautiful art that is for sure but it doesn't need to be shown on natural beauty.

I think what people could look at weird or strange in our culture especially with food is how big everything is. I mean America has like the most massive portions of everything. From drinks down to the size of some fries. You can never escape getting something small. I know that some foreigners are completely shocked when they go to a fast food restaurant and order a large. A large to them is pretty much what our smalls are. It is kinda crazy, yet kind of disgusting how giant you can make a meal. Then again to some people it is not a problem. Even working in a restaurant people cannot believe how big the portions are there. You could definitely make yourself sick. Something else that I think that could be looked at as strange is our dumb measurement system. I do not understand why we can't be like every where else and just have the same measurements and what not. It is so confusing when you have to convert things, not to mention it is very time consuming. My mind seriously is blank right now and there is absolutely nothing else I can think of that is strange or unacceptable.
