Howdy, my name is Rawhide Kobayashi. I'm a 27 year old Japanese Japamerican (western culture fan for you foreigners). I brand and wrangle cattle on my ranch, and spend my days perfecting the craft and enjoying superior American passtimes. (Barbeque, Rodeo, Fireworks) I train with my branding iron every day, this superior weapon can permanently leave my ranch embled on a cattle's hide because it is white-hot, and is vastly superior to any other method of livestock marking. I earned my branding license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day. I speak English fluently, both Texas and Oklahoma dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about American history and their cowboy code, which I follow 100% When I get my American visa, I am moving to Dallas to work in an oil field to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become a cattle wrangler for the Double Cross Ranch or an oil rig operator for Exxon-Mobil! I own several cowboy hats, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to America, so I can fit in easier. I rebel against my elders and seniors and speak English as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond. Wish me luck in America!

I would accept that man as an American, especially when he’s fluent in the Oklahoma dialect.

If any weebs wanted to be a fisher this is pretty spot on. I've heard dudes at convention say this about the tuna trade a few times even :|

Joke explained for your convenience:

oh my god. I'm certain that was a joke, there's no way it's serious

Well it originated on /jp/ in the late 2000s, so there's a >9,000% chance that it was only ever trolls trolling trolls trolling trolls.

They say their 27 and hoping to attend a prestigious high school so they are definitely not being serious.

For me it was the “kanji” dialect instead of “kansai”. Freaking hilarious though.

And greeting with "gomenasai" ("I'm sorry").

Also just noticed the 27 years old and attending a High School!

it could also be rage bait: the person in the image may not have written the text, or be aware of its association. it's a form of cyber bullying.
