    Hmm... some people think Scots are violent drunkards, who live in caves and all that.
    I'm not particularly violent, nor do I drink much alcohol. And I live in a house.

    I DO say, "Aye" however.

    Haha, Shauna. xD

    Um.... do I fall into a stereotype? I really can't think of any. I'm a first generation Italian American New Yorker who loves pasta and zeppoles and pronounces coffee dog like cawfee dawg?

    Im from Merseyside, so Im already discriminated against, as Merseyside is the likes of Manchester and Liverpool.

    Im British, so I pronounce scones as "Scowns" and say "Jolly ho!" all the time.

    Nonsense! You live on farms and throw large logs great distances for fun. And then you moon people on the battlefield!

    Grin

    I'm Chinese. I know karate, not kung fu. I suck at calculus. I play video games. I wear glasses. I work with computers. I dance like a lunatic. I drive a Honda.

    I'm also socialised like an american/canadian, as far as I can tell.

    I also like hobbitsex. omfgaslwtfsarstdhobbitsex??

    If you can apply any stereotypes to PEEGEE that actually works, I'd be very suprised.

    I can fall in and out of stereotypes. It generally depends on my mood and whether or not I'm wearing the cute low-cut maid uniform at the moment.

    Happy Birthday to Me

    I'm multiracial. According to the government, my ethnicity doesn't, technically, exist (although they're finally realizing that we're around. Slowly) so I don't have any stereotypes you can slap on me.

    Moose meat rocks. Though I would have to correct you in saying that Maritimers are the friendliest bunch of people you'll meet.

    Also, more or less what Miriel said.

    Ah, right. It doesn't get much more friendly than us Maritimers. Look, you have TSoL and I as examples.
