National Stereotypes

[Laddy]

What are your opinion of national stereotypes?

Being an American tourist kinda sucks, because everyone's kinda a smartass with you (in a good-natured way or not). So, yeah, American stereotypes are hardly flattering.

I think they're super accurate

What in God's name is wrong with American stereotypes, fatty? ^_^

The thing I probably find most incorrect and annoying about English or British stereotypes is the notion that we all talk like Liquid Snake. No one I know has a "british accent." And I suppose the sort of idea that we're upper class sipping our nice little cups of tea in our bowler hats. Its a bit of a hole in reality.

Although us brits do talk about tha weather a lot. =D

EDIT: What the hell is with the smileys? haha

actually nowadays the British stereotype is more about chavs drinking themselves into a coma and eating fried mars bars

I'm happy with American stereotypes because I know I'm better than everyone else.

It's even worse when you live in a southern state. Obviously as a girl in the south I am an obese welfare queen living in a trailer with the confederate flag outside my window

Well, at least thats a little closer to the truth.

Stereotypes are true, because I live in New York and I am a fast-talking badass.

Except WNY doesn't actually count as New York.

Sadly there are a lot of people who do fit the stereotypes. You're just not likely to meet a lot of them. Especially in such a well bred internet forum such as this :} I actually work with a couple of American stereotypes. Thankfully they're the minority. They just get noticed a lot abroad I guess

Geordie stereotypes are fun, apparently we're all brown ale addicted, cold tolerant fat bastards with a liking for kebabs, gaan oot on the tap and knocking someone's heed off.

In reality, I'm mostly tea total, hardly drink unless i'm out, I can't take the cold because i'm so thin, I hate kebabs and well I hardly go out on the pull because I get jumped on. Every time. D:

So yeah, Tea sipping, cricket loving, buck toothed, queenie bashing, civilised gentlemen my arse XD

Maybe we should do, little brother. Or big brother, I'm not sure which. HELLFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEE!

See how much more fun it makes life?

Belgians and their inoffensiveness and bureaucracy

Also I'm not a big fan of the Azeris, with their oil and their "Oooh Baku is so great" and make up your mind whether you're Persian or Caucasian.

And don't even get me STARTED on the San Marinans. "Most Serene Republic of my Arse" is more like it. Think they're so fancy with their microstate with no debt and a budget surplus and oooh look at us we're too GOOD to join a REAL country like Italy. Berlusconi should invade.
