i agree with trauma entirely...what makes me laugh (and a little pissed off) is when people from other countries say shit like "americans are ignorant because they dont know anything about the world outside of america"...well here's a good example that always stuck with me...one day i was talking to mauzip about all of this shit...like a year ago. and he was like "americans are ignorant...you dont even know you're geography overseas" and i was like "no, not all of use are like that...most of us do know our geography but its not like we memorize every little place" and he was like "well thats ignorant" and this convo started because of the war so i was like "we know all the places we are at in the war(s) and whatnot"...at that point he was like "yeah but you guys dont know anything other than that" so i said "i bet before you moved to the US you didnt know the geography of all 50 states"...his reply was "no but i knew all the important ones, texas, california, etc..."...i laughed so hard...so we are ignorant for not knowing the geography of a place we've never been to. but the place he lived for a year or more he still didnt realize that every state has just as much importance as another. im not tryin to diss mauzip im just sayin i hear a lot of stupid shit like that. and its rediculous. people have this preconcieved notion that americans are just a bunch of ignorant assholes...and its not true.
man i've been to a lot of different counties in my lifeAmericaCanadaMexicoEnglandItalySpainand i can honestly say from my experiences that americans are far from the dumbest people, we're far from the most racist, and we're far from the most arrogant!the amount of intellect i've experienced is about the same....the dumbest people though i'd have to say out of that bunch would have to be the french canadians as well as the rudest.the most arrogant people i've ever met came from englandthe most racist , mexico
American people in general:1) Hardly know anything about things outside America2) Are ignorant as fuck3) Are very nice people4) Live in a great country.

Quote from: AcGrundy aka budsmokeronly on December 17, 2003, 11:06:42 AMI never bothered reading anyone's post, but yes I am American, and yes I agree, overall and in general American's are fucking dumb. 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 DumbB) Do not thinkC) are LazyD) are kind hearted and nice, but dumbE) have their head shoved way up their assI 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

Every dog has his day. But yeah, Trauma did make a strong case for America, you can't be stupid and accomplish all the things America has in a short span of time.

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.
