No culture for you

Joe and I were walking around the Japanese Cultural Center downtown the other day. 

We were headed back to the car, when an Asian lady stopped us in the parking lot.  She looked at me, and asked, "Are you lost?"

"No, we're not.  Thanks all the same," I tell her as we walk away.

I turned to Joe, "What.. are we not allowed to partake of Japanese culture if we're not Japanese?"

Joe laughs, "Apparently not."
