So I’m scrolling through some American news on ABC, right? And I stumble upon this guide for refugees:

http://www.dw.com/en/10-things-to-kn...any/g-18735382Here’s a little sneak peek at a few points:
5. Keep it down! - Seriously, even if you're just catching up with old friends, being too loud in your apartment is a fast track to annoying your neighbors.
6. Fixed prices at the store - In some places, haggling is practically a sport, right? Well, not here. In America, supermarket prices aren't up for debate—not in grocery stores or pretty much any shop.
8. Being on time - It's like a core value. Showing up late to an appointment? Yeah, that does not sit well with people here.
I mean, what can you even say to that? What kind of lesson am I supposed to take from this?
