Culture lag

Culture lag: hopelessness, irritability and other effects felt by a person after a journey across cultures seemingly more advanced than its own.

Culture Pirate

A person who changes their own accent, phrasing, or mannerisms to match the assumed accent, phrasing, or mannerisms of their audience. Often results in embarrassment when the wrong accent or mannerism is chosen or when the audience feels offended by the pirating.

"Yes, why?"
"...We're in an Indian restaurant! You're such a culture pirate!"
