Non U.S: What do you think of us?

[SlutPuppy]

How to travel safely and make everyone in different countries like you, when you're American: Say you're Canadian. :P

[jamness]

Well I think Bush sorta brought that reputation upon you... but to some extent its still true. You guys think you rule the rest of the world :P

When I say that, I mean your politicians think that.

[Lukeyjukey]

The only things I don't like about America is the way you guys pronounce oregano and aluminium. Otherwise we're basically an extension of each other!

Haha she was right to complain, it drives me crazy! I think at the end of the day England's got its mad bastards and America's got their mad bastards, but if you look beyond them to the normal people there's very little difference...

...Just those pronunciations!!!!!

Everything wrong in the world can be blamed on America. Find me one thing that can't.

But then again, that is the cost of being a superpower.

pfft, that honestly made me laugh. ^-^ How is cheese considered something wrong in the world. Its even on your list twice! X'D

How is America responsible for a lot of other stuff on your list? Sounds a tad ignorant lol.

I also take you up on your challenge of one thing wrong in the world that cant be blamed on America. I choose natural disasters.

How about karaoke? We have to blame the Japanese for inventing that!

Jackasses - Can you remember the imperial rule Britain imposed on the world in the 1600/1700/some of the 1800s? In other words, the British Empire pretty much rules a third of the world at some time, and I guess that makes them a jackass, pretty much calling one place a colony after invading it, giving them no choice. Is it different than our taking over the Native American lands? No, but we're not the only ones in the world.

Bullies - Ummm... Once again, Britain in the 17th, 18th, and 19th Century. Am I insulting the British? No, but you can't blame America for this. Oh, and Germany in the 1930s? Hah! I call THAT being a bully and a jackass!

Racism - You have us on that one. But not everybody is racist. That's stereotyping.

Stereotyping - What you just did above.

Cheese - You can blame ITALY for that one. I love cheese. I fail to see why it's on the list.

Grease - McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, and a few other fast food joints aside, we're not actually that obese. We just have a large population, with many people to feed, and many people don't have to sit down and eat a decent meal, so they resort to grease, and more grease. You have your fair share of greasy stuff too. We know EXACTLY how unhealthy due to the illegality of of saturated fats in many states.

Guns - Germany was the first proponent of using machine guns. They proved so in World War 1.

Stupidity - You Europeans have your fair share, trust me.


Listen: Every country has it's share of stupid people, fat people, STEREOTYPICAL and Racist people (the Moldova incident of the 90s, basic genocide, the German Massive attempted-genocide of the Jews and gypsies and gays and mentally disabled and paralized, must I bring up more?), you've covered the jackass topic I see, and... Well, that's it for now.

Have anything else rude and stereotypical to say?

BANG. BANG. Dang.... well, that's best thing I've heard all day. And, in my opinion, Americans are people and all people are the same (with a few exceptions here and there).

That's a very good point. If everyone on Earth came together as one this world would be a way better place for everyone!

Breaks out in song [We are the world...We are the children...We are the ones...who make a brighter day...So let's start giving.... /end song]


What I think about the US is this.... we suck. Anytime there is some natural disaster in some foreign country we can raise billions of dollars to help them but we still have starving homeless people here... Anytime there is a skirmish between some dictator and the people he would oppress we send in troops to take up for the defenseless yet there are whole neighborhoods here being terrorized by gang violence...

Bodacious did hit the nail on the head though, people are people no matter where they live and there will always be some good and some bad.

the one thing i hate about americans is half of them claim to be irish even though its like loads of generations away even their president is doing it.
