Pretty sure I don't fulfill any Irish, Italian, or Pittsburghian traits...unless you count a love of proper Italian food and the ownership of a Terrible Towel. (Okay, the towel definitely counts.) However, on the American level, I definitely have this gutsy "Want to kick your ass at times" thing going. However...it's better aimed than the actual nation, so that might actually cancel it out.

Bit of a nerd, I spend most of my free time playing games, I studied not only computer science at university but also maths. I'm also Chinese, and we're stereotyped to be good at maths, I'm alright at maths, wouldn't say I'm brilliant. Plus I'm pale even for a white person, let alone a Chinese person.

I don't THINK I fit into any stereotypes. Maybe that's a stereotype right there!

i'm of african decent and i like chicken. Not fried chicken , just chicken. Also i'm a fat geek, working on changing that
To be fair, chicken is awesome! I'm as white as they come (minus that 1/4 Cherokee thing) and I love fried chicken. Actually, I just like chicken. I think I know what I'll cook this weekend.

I grew up in Germany, I am very ambitious even thought the rest of the world doesn't understand me and fears me while at the same time wishing to be like me, I dislike the French, and used to be friends with Russians, but we seemed to grow apart, I pay very close attention to everything I do and strive for perfection in everything undertaking, although I spread myself a bit thin at times, I'm very pragmatic, and while I'm simple and don't draw to much attention to myself I yearn to be recognized for my greatness.

You tell me if I apply to any stereotypes...

I'm in Arizona, and yes I'm pretty stupid. I'm also a gamer, and happen to be pretty pyschotic(Or what my friends tell me).

As an Italian American, i have some, extremely minor, mafia connections. Nothing that lets me in on special privileges, but i do get to say that my grandfather ran with the mafia for a while. At least til WW2 came around. Bootlegging was a big deal with him, apparently.

I'm white and can't dance.
I'm part Russian and have a ludicrous alcohol tolerance.

I don't believe in stereotypes personally, but based on the ones I actually know of, I can't say I belong to any of them. Unless there's a stereotype for being a balanced physical/emotional being. :x
That is so against the norm it is the new meaning of insanity.

I am white and can not jump very high or dance well.
I am also a nerd who spends a lot of time in the same room and is socially awkward.

The biggest German stereotypes I can think of as an American, is that Germans are uptight and humorless in public, but lead ridiculously kinky sex lives in private.

So that maybe?

Perhaps, depends on what you define as kinky.

I game heavily, yet I have a good social life, and a girlfriend. I'm also not pale. So, I guess I don't fit the 'avid gamer' stereotype.

I'm very laid back, though. So I suppose I fit an Australian stereotype. But I hate shrimp.

Lesbian, vegetarian, left-wing commie hippie right here. The nightmare of the Nixon era! Although, some stereotypes are way off; I don't listen to folk music, and I never wear plaid or any of those associated lesbian stereotypes.
Right on sista girl! :)

Pale, chunky, unemployed nerd who lives in his mom's basement.

Hoping to fix all of the above next week. At least I hate Cheetos/Doritos/all chips.

Drama Geek, too. I'm loud, far too upfront with my personal info, and have a tendency to break into monologue/accent/song at random. I've improv'ed an entire musical in public with friends.

Massachusetts. I'm an aggressive driver, who hates the white collar despite belonging/being close to it, and I'm too smart for my own good (or at least act like it!).

Hot damn, I got quite a few of these.

I'd say that if you have to ask if it's kinky or not... it probably is.

And I am white. I... do things frequently associated with white people? I guess?

I circumvent most "college guy" stereotypes, though. For instance, I'm not a jackass! (At least, I don't think so.)
