I too suffer from some of this having grown up in Australia. There are something in Australia which are frowned upon for being too American but not all.
What I also suffer from is oddly misplaced cultural references. Australian TV and music is a weird mix of UK, local and US and I never know if a TV show I am about to reference has been released here.....
I once was heavily criticized in the UK for using the term real estate. Not that I cared as the chap involved was a moron but there you go.
