Thoughts after returning from my 2nd trip to Japan

Immediately after coming back to the U.S. from my second lovely trip to Japan, three things hit me in the face like cold water:
1: Americans are FAT. Seriously, I very rarely encountered a fat person in Japan. They are in much better shape than we are. Their food is very healthy, and they don't eat garbage like we do. Also, they walk around a lot more, which contributes to their health.
2. Americans have pissy attitudes. Seriously, just experiencing the rudeness from the airport staff and shuttle bus driver after getting off the plane put me in a bad mood. I wanted to go back to Japan and be around polite people again.
3. Americans are unhappy. You hardly ever see Americans really having a good time and smiling. In Japan, even though they are strict about rules and noise in public, they smile more and seem happier. Their television is also more lighthearted with a lot of variety shows. The waiters at restaurant and hotel staff tend to pamper you, unlike the U.S. where service isn't usually that great.
