Common sterotypes of you and your country

[JaymesFogarty]

Stereotype of me? I'm a pale as hell white girl with short hair, a bit overweight who wears a lot of black clothing, with a vocabulary that surpasses that of her classmates and a 'hate-everyone-she-meets' complex who hangs out on the internet.

Basically to sum that all up, people think I'm a snarky lonely goth lesbian. They can think what they want, though; whatever keeps them from bothering me.


Stereotypes about my country... everything's in French, we live in igloos, snows all the time and we all own pet beavers. I even heard we eat babies, from some asshat a few years back.

Eat babies, dear lord!? I have never heard that before, but I'm intrigued to know what kind of prick could possibly believe that. I'm sure you're alright, some people are, to quote, "asshats."
On topic, many people think that because I'm English, I drink tea, play cricket and walk around with an umbrella, (Deja Vu, I think someone else mentioned that before.) I'm actually rather embarrased, as I do drink tea in a bone china cup, I do love cricket, and I do walk around with an umbrella. I also live on the moon and eat moon cheese.

Me - I wear black and have long hair and that makes me emo/goth/whatever scene is popular(nope, extreme metal only please). I do computer science so automatically I am a social retard who is really smart and has no friends(i wont go into detail but false )

Country - I am Irish(as in actually Irish, as in, I live in Ireland) so automatically, I am a drunk, retarded, not actually Irish but British since they are interchangeable , have bad teeth because by association I am British as well as Irish, LOVE potatoes, Ginger, talk like leprechauns on American TV shows.(ok some truth to some of these, I go love drink, and potatoes)

Xbox live is the worst, anyone who can speak English and doesn't have an American accent is automatically British(country not specified) and hence has bad teeth, I facepalm every time before explaining the variety of things wrong with that.

Country: The US, and any of it's sterotypes, I guess.

City: Depends, are there any stereotypes for PA?

 

[Mar451]

Im American so i obviousIly think im the greatest ************ in the world, i also live in a small town so i obviously like Nascar and aspire to be a mechanic and im confused by words with more than five letters.

I'm also part Irish so i beat every girl i meet, i can drink an entire 12 pack to get a buzz and I am strong in Catholic Faith.

In reality i hate Nascar, i never want to be a mechanic, i have a very extensive vocabulary, i also don't beat every girl i meet i don't have red hair, and i never want to drink any alcohol as it were.

 

[LewsTherin]

I live in an igloo, ride a moose in the one month of summer and a polar bear for the rest of the year, get milk in bags, have a beaver hat, speak French, play hockey, say "aboot" and my blood type is maple syrup.

Please take heed to the following: no one says aboot.EVER. Except maybe if you're from Newfoundland.

City: We're all cowboys who drink bitumen and pay way too much in taxes. And hate Edmonton.

Only half of that is true.

Three guesses where I'm from and the first two don't count. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calgary]

 

[Connosaurus Rex]

I'm an American and the others summed it up well
I'm from boston and we don't all talk like Pak ya Ca in Havad Yad.
I actually Talk quite normal.
Other than that I"m normal and am not steroetyped badly

 

[RobotNinja]

Well I live in the American South (Texas to be specific) so I get lots of crap about incest and stupid stuff like that. That's not true at all (except maybe in Arkansas). And I DESPISE country music! It makes my ears want to throw up.

 

[Argtee]

Canada:
No I don't live in an igloo
No I have normal blood but I do like maplesyrup
No I'm not a pacifist
No Its not cold
Buffalo NY gets 5x more snow than me
I haven't seen snow since it melted last march.

This

I can't really add anything to this.

USA? Ha to many to list.
We "think" we are the world police. But when theirs a problem if we don't do something no one else does and blames us.

We only care about oil and fastfood.
We destroy other countries, and the ones that say that only do so to get more aid to shut them up.

For some reason if the UN says we need to act with military it's 90 percent the US soldiers asses.

For city, it's houston Tx. 4million people and most retards think we only listen to country music, ride horses and go to rodeos.

don't forget the obesity thing.

 

[Hollock]

For Americans My local area has some pretty big stereotypes. My town is all supposed to be rednecks. The town to the west is all lesbians. And the Town to the east is all hippies.

Yeah, but once again less thought of as Texans since we arfe cow pokes or Oil Tycoons.

 

[Double A]

People say I'm the definition of "Runescape Player" yet I've never even played the game.

And I'm American.

...exactly.

You know those giant douche-bags that have picked on so many of us in school??? Where do you think they go after high school?? The Marines, where they earn metals for bravery...

Country: Canada

Untruths: We have no military, we are the most polite people ever, we live in igloos, we say aboot rather than about, we like quebec and france more than regular countries (not necessarily true at all...)

 

[Ph33nix]

that we are fat and stupid and racists. you all know what country i am from.

 

[kannibus]

City: We're pretentious twats who wan't to be American, because we can't deal with Canadian Winter. (Toronto. We are sort of pretentious)

Well speaking as a fellow Canadian that has to bear the BONE CHILLING COLD of Ottawa and north of Ottawa's winters. I can safely say that you Torontonians have it easier than us schleps in O-Town. You never see us calling in the army to shovel sidewalks. (sorry bud, that was low of me, but it WAS funny from up here.)

On topic

Country: Canadian. So I must say "eh" a lot. I only say "eh" when I'm in the proper company.

City: O-Town wants to be Toronto junior who wants to be NYC junior.

Ethnicity: South East Asian so I must be a short, dirty little brown guy.

The town to the west is all lesbians.

Are they at least good looking lesbians?

 

[Romblen]

United States, any stereo type I could mention, has already been said before.

State: Wyoming, I've ranted on this a couple times, but I guess I'll say it again.

1. We're not part of Texas.
2. We're not all cowboys.
3. Yes, we have electricity.
4. Yes, we have internet.
5. Yes, we know a black person is president.
6. No, we do not all ride horses, we own cars.

Hey, in all honesty, I thought calling in the army was pretty fucking stupid. And I was 6.

Funny though, can't deny that. Saw a soldier shovel my street. And my walkway. HI-Larious!
