You're right about that....the larger cultures do tend to overwhelm the smaller ones, and you're right about our own vernacular. It can be pretty rough, but what we're mostly complaining about is this ghetto, tribal, knuckle dragging language and attitude that's come out of the US. I can imagine many over there cringe at it as well and would rather it dry up and blow away, but unfortunately it's become too ingrained into their society to rid themselves of it. At least not for several generations.
