Can I ask where you live/are from, Ando?

I ask because that certainly seems like a cultural thing. My family is the same in regards to "dude, whatever, just stay here, it's the most logical decision." We're also big on having lots of relatives under one roof - my lovely Aunt, before she passed, had four families living in her house. Granted, her house was huge, but it was still a fascinating thing to see. But that seems frowned upon in America, although it also seems to be changing with how shitty things are economy wise here.
