Culture is Ordinary

When I read this I get mixed feelings and emotions. I understand where the author is coming from when he says that Culture is ordinary becuase in a way it is. Every race, ethnic group has its own culture, so I can see in that aspect where he is coming from saying that culture is ordinary. The author probably was being sarcastic, in the sense to grab the readers attention. He wants people to read what he has to say so in a way he makes it ironic to grab the readers attention. I think he knows that we feel that culture is not ordinary thats why he wrote the titile like that. We know that culture is not ordinary. Culture is different to everyone thats why its not ordinary but the author is probably writing it to make us look at things differently not just one way.
