obscurantism
When expats come back from China and think everything in America is deep and meaningful, even the pizza.
My friend came back from China and said, 'The average American life is a masterpiece of chaos.' I said, 'You just saw a McDonald’s.'
My expat buddy claimed that the Washington Monument is a symbol of human potential. I said, 'It’s just a tall stone.' He said, 'You’re just not a visionary.'
My ex said, 'The Mona Lisa is just a really good meme.' I said, 'You’re not a Renaissance man. You’re a meme man.'
