Stereotypes you break

[TheLazyKnight]

I live in the Southern United States but I am highly educated, literate, and rational.
I am a Christian, though I am accepting of all religions.
I am not a racist and have no homophobic tendencies.
I am a college student that only drinks occasionally.
I am studying literature and media and I'm not an arrogant snob.
I enjoy watching soccer, but I don't like other sports.
I'm a gamer, but I enjoy outdoor activities too.

 

[Normalgamer]

I'm Irish, and I don't drink.

Which I think makes me the only one.

What counts as not drinking? Not drinking to get drunk? Because I still prefer my wine with my dinner.

 

[ddon]

I'm american and i'm not fat.

 

[malestrithe]

I grew up in the 90's, but I hate everything about it.
I am socially awkward, but women like talking to me.
I am a gamer, but I prefer bubblegum pop over metal.

 

[Wardnath]

I listen to Nokturnal Mortum and I'm not a skinhead (seriously, read their lyrics).

That's about all I've got at the moment, I honestly can't think of one that I DO break. :S

 

[Sixties Spidey]

I happen to be a Halo fan, but I don't scream like a fucking child on Xbox Live (I keep my headset unplugged to the controller), and I'm extremely capable of playing games from other genres that DON'T include shooting stuff, and I can have about as much of a good time.

That, and I happen to buy Halo games for the single-player campaigns, if only, because I'm interested in seeing how the story unfolds. And the Single player campaign of Reach looks pretty awesome!

 

[breadlord]

I'm an American, but I'm not arrogant.

 

[TehChef]

I'm Hispanic and love snow/cold (though that could be the Norwegian talking). I'm American and don't care much for basketball, baseball, or football, but love soccer.

Also, at the risk of incurring mod wrath on my first post, I didn't see any of the Welsh mentioning anything about repaying debts. Perhaps the saying is true...

(That second part was sarcasm for the benefit of everyone on this board seeing as how I'm a noob.)

 

[Yoshemo]

I'm gay but Im not girly, I hate girly guys, I hate shopping (unless its for food), I could care less about celebrities, and I can't stand guys with a lisp

 

[Seven Bottles Of Gin On The Wall]

*Search bar approved*

What stereotypes do you break during your daily activities?

Personally I find I actually become more intelligent on the internet as opposed to the slobbering idiots I so often encounter outside this site.

I'm half-black. I am nothing like other black people I grew up around. However I break this down completely by loving fried chicken which is a well known stereotype.

 

[Syl4r]

British and not snooty
British and not "chavvy"
I'm atheist but don't wage wars on religion.

 

[omega_peaches]

I'm Asian and I speak clear english!

 

[The3rdEye]

I am Canadian and I hate the snow... with the burning intensity of a thousand suns. I also don't say "eh", ever, but I do however speculate that around 50% of my blood content is coffee. Mmmm, Timmies.

 

[Varanfan9]

I know I might be flamed for this but I'm a ten year long gamer who prefers and plays my Wii over my X-box
Then again I have yet to buy a bad Wii game since Mario and Sonic Olympic games

 

[yoyo13rom]

I'm Irish, and I don't drink.

Which I think makes me the only one.

Kill the impostor!!!

I try to post in a grammatically accurate manner on the Internet. Does that count?

That, and I'm a girl gamer who likes horror and FPS games in addition to RPGs and simulations.

Ok, you broke the stereotype(or at least that's my opinion).

OT: I was terrified of water till the age of 15, and I mean terrified+phobia. Now I'm like a natural athlete swimmer, does that count?

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

I'm British and hate football with the passion of the Christ.

I'm from Newcastle, live in Yorkshire and am a snob (these are very northern, working-class "we don't like t' guvmint unless it's Labour" areas). I can't stand strong regional accents. Seriously, how does anyone pronounce the word "no" as "nor"? I once spent time sitting in a library with a fellow very similar to me who lives in Harehills, a pretty low-brow area let's say, talking in such a way as to make two young children decide we were from Buckinghamshire.

We dismissed these children with hearty chortles and a twirl of our monocles, before placing our top hats upon our heads and sauntering off, arm in arm.
