1) Hardly know anything about things outside America
2) Are ignorant as fuck
3) Are very nice people
4) Live in a great country.

Dutch people: ;D
1) Are ignorant, but by far not as ignorant as Americans. Basically, most people are ignorant. I'm just not one of them, I know that ;)
2) Will cuss you out if you're walking outside and you coincidentally walk against someone; Americans will laugh about it.
But I'd rather live in the US to be honest. I think it's a great country. I'm actually trying to move there in 2 years. First I'm gonna finish college and then I'm gonna try to find a job over there :)

I have had tons of experiences with a ton of different american people. I have worked many many different service jobs where I deal with hundreds of people a day. I now own a business which provides services to people. From dealing with so many people I have come to the conclusion that Americans in general:
A) are Dumb
B) Do not think
C) are Lazy
D) are kind hearted and nice, but dumb
E) have their head shoved way up their ass
I could give thousands of examples, but I'm not going to, because there are a lot of dumb people on this forum too, and I don't need to prove to anyone that americans in general are dumb, because I know myself from personal experience.
Not to say American's are the dumbest people on the earth. I wouldn't know. I have never been to any other country except for Mexico. The whole rest of the world could be very well as dumb as American's, I just don't know that.
ANd I will also say, that for as smart of animals as we are compared to every other animal in the world, we have got to be the dumbest. Many of the problems of the world today are brought on by humans themselves. We make the world and our lives much harder than it should be. One example: Starvation. Nobody in this world should be suffering from starvation, yet there are a lot of people who do suffer from it. It's not like there is any shortage of food at all, its just that people are dumb/selfish/greedy. Do you know how many restaurant's/grocery stores in America throw away a shitload of food everyday?

if i worked with handicapped people all day can i say that everyone in america is sufferening from down syndrome? in any kind of experiment, you need multiple variables to prove your point... so you have a business and people go to you for help...that makes them stupid? tomorrow i want you to apply for NASA and tell me how far you get dealing with these stupid people... or go to home depot and build a house with no help from those stupid people

hey smart guy (are you american?) I didn't say people are dumb because they come to me for help. I said I run a business which is in the service sector. I encounter people all the time. I have had many service jobs, in which I deal with people all the time. Never did I say people are dumb for using the service. I have plenty of variables. I'm talking about people just not thinking in general and having no common sense. You obviously don't understand. How in the hell would you know any experience I have had with another person? You don't. My opinion is that in general, Americans are dumb. You cannot say that is not true, because its my opinion, and I am the one judging the people. me and you could have a totally different meaning of what a dumb person is. I have no tolerance whatsoever for dumb people, so it doesn't take much for me to consider them dumb.

yea it is pretty ignorant to say we dont know anything outside of the us.....why would i care about politics in turkey or what they are doing in angola..I could give a rats ass what they are doing...and geographically i can name all the big countrys over there but i couldnt name all the southwest asian countries that change names every 10 years.

don't forget tho how big america is and where most origionally came from (europe) and those who unfortunitly we took with us...
JTSimon:
Americans only know about countries they are invading ;D
If you ask an American 'List 3 countries and their capitals excluding US/Iraq?'
I bet 95% of Americans couldn't do it.
