Some Australians who go over to America because they've got family there, they'll be hopping around all the major sites and they'll be like, oh, this is what it was like when I gave blood in Phoenix and Miami and New York and Australia.

Also, I mean, the converse, to be constantly in combat and angry with people and not giving them the benefit of the doubt, it just kind of eats away at your own self in a way.
