You just took me back to when LAL and I had a Finnish exchange brother - well more me than her, cuz she was away at school. The information pipeline to Helsinki and beyond back then was constrained to Hollywood dubs. Nevertheless, one of the first questions asked of me en route from CVG to our house was “Do you have your own car? A Firebird?” Sure, Petri’s take on America was skewed; no worse then than now, really. Still, I shudder to think of what would’ve, could’ve been posted online back then, and hairstyles and fashion may be the least of my worries 😂
