From a political angle your media and politicians seem to throw around "unamerican" around alot. That seems uber patriotic to me as start.

=/ I haven't really got any stereotypes that arnt true.

Let's see. I'm half Italian so everyone thinks I only eat pasta and pizza.
I'm also half Irish so all the non Irish people think I only eat potatoes.

Irish, drink and violence.

Actually, both of those are somewhat true, we're the second heaviest drinkers in the world (1st is Luxembourg) and we have these incredibly violent guerrilla wars every once in a while.

EDIT: I removed the video at another users request.
Correction!
Irish: Awesome awesome awesome people. At least for me. Please rejoin Britain!
I am about 1/4 welsh so I obviously like to shag sheep, I am 1/2 english so I like tea and the rest is mostly Russian so I... I... What stereotypes are there for female russians?

Fat and obnoxious and stupid.

It's the God bless America thing that does it.

OT: I'm not even going to list the ridiculous amount of Australian ones.

Holland: We all walk on wooden shoes, we are known for our tulips (that we stole from the Turks but hey!.... shhhhhtttt :p) I can't go to the bus stop without bumping my head against a windmill which I could have seen coming because the land is so flat (and that's true). We all were funny costumes and like cheese but were nifty enough to redirect the name that stereotyped us "Jan Kaas/Kees" (according to wikimnotsosurepedia it's "Kees" sowhatthahell) to yankees, and got away with it.

I live in tennessee, so I presumably am:

inbred

stupid

in love with country music

a bible-thumper

a republican

racist

very country, with a strong accent

drive to school on a tractor

play bluegrass

in order, I shall refute these claims:


lolno

sorry, try again

i hate country music with a passion

nope

I'm a libertarian

I won't deny that i make racist comments among friends and on the internet (I'm a chantard), but im not actually racist.

I Don't dress like a hick, and I have a very small Tennessee accent that i can cover up if i try. i dont use "ain't" or that kinda stuff either.

I live in the city, and we don't do that. i hear they do it in the county though. the city high school was facing the county school (our biggest rival) today, and we had a hillbilly day while they had a ken and barbie day (apparently we are overprivileged)

I hate bluegrass

I'm from Kansas, and you know us; All of us live on farms and pitch hay, ride horses, and love the good ol' country music. Oh, and Kansas is flat. Totally flat. We have no cities anywhere, and technology is a foreign concept to us. We aren't exactly rednecks, but we're right up- er, down there with them.

EDIT: And we all farm wheat, and nothing else.

With Australia, I will leave *some* populations out of this.

For the main Australia the stereotype is that I drink lots of beer (hate the taste), love my sport (bores me), lazy (maybe some truth there), tanned (I am a ginger, tanning is stupid) and live in the isolated Outback (the majority leave close to the coast, I am not an exception). Oh and speak in heavily-slang speech. Now with that, I attempt to speak somewhat formally in everyday life.

Believe me, the Australian stereotype is one of the least true to the reality.
Watcha talking bout mate? Did you misscook one of ya' bloody barbied shrimp and have ya memory do the old harold holt on ya? :p
In all seriousness though everyday is a battle for survival due to the numberless amount of venomous animals we have to fight on our way too school/work everyday. If it weren't fo me trusty knife i'd be dead a couple of times over by now...

American: Fat, Lazy, Stupid, Patriotic, Gun-Totting, Heavy Drinking Bum. I might be Lazy and somewhat of a Patriot, I certainly am not Stupid, Fat, Gun-Totting (Though I do support Gun Rights with some control, obviously), an Alcoholic, or a Bum.

No, we do not have polar bears in our backyards.
No, we do not live in igloos.
No, our parliament buildings are NOT made of ice
No, we do not say "eh?" all the time.
No, we don't have permawinter. Yes, our winters are icey hell, but we DO have summer. And summer is pretty damn warm.
Yes, we do have the best hockey players in the world.

So yeah. Canada. More specifically, Quebec.

I'm from Pennsylvania, so apparently I'm Amish. I did go to college in a corn field and drive past buggies on my way to school, but my hometown is known more for being ghetto and having a lot of gang activity.

I do love some shoo fly pie, though.
