so
how the fuck an "austrian" from Austria who never been to US besides an ocasional visit, speaks perfect english... is in tune with every aspect of american social and entertainment life, writes like an american with all the particularities
and follows popular american shows
I'm good with english, always have been. I watch american movies only in the original language and I'm active on english boards (for as long as the internet exists). I also primarily read and write in English due to my job.
You can easily watch popular US shows from everywhere nowadays. I e.g. watch Dexter, Weeds, Californication, Man v. Food etc. And I like a few US radio shows like Howard Stern and Bob & Tom.
If you would be a skilled native speaker, you could easily spot all the little stylistic mistakes I make. Deicide e.g. asked me right away if I was German when I first came onto this board. Just from reading a few of my english posts, he knew.
