Your country's Stereotypes

[Soviet Heavy]

What are your country's stereotypes?

Mine.
Canada: Maple Syrup Eh?
Quebec: Assholish Separatists

Name your country's stereotype

 

[Jim Grim]

The English, we love tea and are very polite, yet at the same time aloof and condescending.

 

[Irridium]

America: Fat, loud, annoying, arrogant, stupid xenophobes.

 

[Marter]

Another one for Canada: Always saying "sorry"

 

[Radeonx]

America: Awesome, the best at everything, amazing, hilarious, god-like, and patriotic.

 

[Thaluikhain]

Australia: Hard drinking and (I think) athletic types. Oh, and we are surrounded by things constantly trying to kill us.

 

[Soviet Heavy]

Another one for Canada: Always saying "sorry"

Forgot that one.
Also, polar bear cavalry and all our policemen are mounties.

 

[DuplicateValue]

Irish: Drunkards... Erm, yeah.

 

[Monkfish Acc.]

Ireland: Rowdy, violent drunkards.

Cork: ... Bunch of dumb pricks who think they are hard? I don't know. Everyone who is not from here pretty much agrees it's a shithole, though.

 

[DuplicateValue]

America: Awesome, the best at everything, amazing, hilarious, god-like, and patriotic.

I think he means how other places stereotype the country.

 

[Eumersian]

As an American, I am:

-Fat
-Ignorant
-Radical Capitalist
-Right-Wing Christian Xenophobe

In reality, I am none of those things. I am in normal weight range. I can find Uzbekistan on a globe (I think). I am only sort of a capitalist. I am a Christian, but not wicked right-wing, or xenophobic.

 

[Dorian_Winter]

Australia: "Shrimp on the barbie". They're called prauns.

 

[DuplicateValue]

Australia: "Shrimp on the barbie". They're called prauns.

Ehm... Prawns actually.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

America: Fat, stupid, ignorant morons

I'd like to counter that, but I need to go on a Twinkie break.

 

[Radeonx]

America: Awesome, the best at everything, amazing, hilarious, god-like, and patriotic.

I think he means how other places stereotype the country.

Oh, right. My bad.
I'll add "Better than me" and "Feared by all due to unimaginable amounts of badassery" to the list.

 

[OctoH]

Philippines: BANANAS! KARAOKE! And we are short. And we like to fight.
United States of America: GUNS! CHEESEBURGERS!

Those are the ones that are true about me, though I am sure there are plenty more.

 

[FalloutJack]

Well, since I'm an Irish-Italian born in the U.S., I will give you three answers for the price of one. Take NONE OF THEM seriously.

America! - America is fat and lazy with a bloodlust a mile long and a short attention span. Also, according to the best terrorists, we're the most evil fucks ever to stand up and say "Yo!".

Ireland! - Gimme a pint and I'll crap potatoes and bomb a restaurant. Also, SHEEEEEP!!

Italy! - Pasta pasta pasta pasta pasta! And I can't talk without moving my hands around with a number of funny gestures.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

U.S.A. stereotype vs. me

Fat- I have to go to a doctor because I am underweight
Ignorant- I have yet to lose an argument based upon knowledge or logos
Conservative- Libertarian
Fundamentalist Christian- Atheist
Arrogant- No

Forgot that one.

Don't forget they say "Please" too much. For other Canadian stereotypes see:

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

I'm Irish, so I'm an angry, Catholic alcoholic.

To be honest, that seems to have subsided a lot here in England (except for the alcoholic part), and girls here apparently find the accent cute, so it's not all bad.
