Some of these are interesting, others are amusing. Especially since I know several Canadians (and yes, several of them would take offense if you called them American, and almost all of them would quickly correct you), and a couple who’ve spent several years in Japan and have adopted some of the Japanese culture. And my father-in-law is Belgian — I knew about the division between French-speaking and Dutch-speaking Belgians (it’s referred to regularly at the dinner table), but I wasn’t aware of the Belgian connotations of snapping fingers as impolite, I’ll have to be careful about that.
