Every time I hear of someone going to the US for the first time I feel the need to show them this. Personally I've only been to New York and I've usually found that big cities don't really tell you much about the country itself and its people. In a way all big cities around the world are the same sort of multicultural beehive.

That video doesn't really show English people in the best light. It does reinforce the stereotype that people from England are arrogant and condescending though - thankfully I know that Clarkson while a funny guy, seems to have some strange dislike for America and isn't representative of the entire country.

I don't know why, but "edit: I'm back in Japan" is extremely funny to me. I keep picturing you getting lost somewhere in California, stopping, looking around, seeing that everything's written in Japanese, and saying "Ah... fuck".

I should probably have my morning coffee before going on the internet.

Pretty much this. It's all conducive on where you are in the country that dictates what you "should do" or where you "should visit." Personally, while I have visited Cali before, I've never been to San Diego so I can't really help you. I think they have a Sea World over there so you might wanna check that out.
 
Oh yeah, and WELCOME TO AMERICA

so im back in japan...feels a bit odd but anyways when i was in san fran i went back to the WhiskeyMediaHQ  and got some autographs,they were pritty busy and the kind lady(dont know here name) was nice enough to get the autographs for me,could not get vinny,alex,tested peeps autographs though maneged to get matt rories thumb print so thats awsome,also got to meet greg kasavin,saw him walking out the door and just had to ask if he was greg kasavin(though i totaly spaced and asked what he was working on after red alert 3 when i was totaly hyped about spec ops the line) got his autograph to so thats awsome,his video reviews on gamespot was the reason i started looking into reviews and before that i thought they were completely useless like who cares what some dudes on the internet think about games,so meeting him was nice. its been 3 mailbag videos and they still havent shown all the japanese snacks i gave them,but in the 775 twinkey one they said dont come to the office and i just gave them the snacks a week before that video so yeah...well i guess 775 twinks will take up a hole vid,and they did show the aloe drinks in the next vid whitch a dude brought over so its probably not that i came to the office to hand them the stuff is the reason they havent shown my crap at all,so it is bugging me,i have to send an apology email cuz i feel bad for the hole dont come over thing,but that did go up far afgter i went so yeah. also gpt all this footage on my iphone from my trip that im not to sure if i should post or not,maybe ill work on that some.

i wish i could have stayed longer but they were just about to record the bombcast so i got  a quick tour,said hi to everybody,gave them my snackpack from okinawa japan and bed farewell,i asked if i could get a cross interview and be in the mailbag video but they said they were too busy(completely understandable),first time in america and i have met some of the coolest people in the world,but in the heat of the moment i forgot to film it all...goddamit,i guess ill have to ask if i could get another quicktour and this time film it,whitch is near imposible becouse they said they were busy all week but i just have to ask,well wish me luck.

But yeah, the Mariners aren't too hot right now. The teams to see are the Sounders and Seahawks, because even when they're losing, the atmosphere is special. 137 decibels can't be beat.

Maybe you can go see a San Diego Padres baseball game. Baseball is pretty American, although its kind of japanese too.  It would definitely be a good chance to eat some quality american hot dogs. :P
