Do you think we don't do that in the US? The only thing that stands as different in this pic from the downtown area near me is all the cigarettes and stucco.

The open button-up cardigan is something I wouldn't expect to see in the US, but I could be wrong.

It’s daylight and these folks might hang out for four hours… we have a lovely downtown… but this kind of convivial relaxed atmosphere?? Nah. We might understand it but it’s not part of our lifestyle.

I’m pretty sure that no one at any of these tables has used the phrase “social anxiety” ever.
