The ones ive spoken to for the most are really arrogant sounding, obviously this isn't the case for all americans only the few ive talked to.
Okay, I understand that most Americans are assholes, but can you let us make fun of ourselves?

I've met and spoken to dozens of Americans and they're no different to anyone else.

There are arrogant Americans and there are Americans that aren't.

Whatever society or culture you hail from, providing it's not localised and very secluded, you are always going to get a fair proportion of twats.

Americans don't suffer from this anymore than the rest of the world, there's just loads of Americans so it just seems that way.

Everyone in the world has bad thoughts, it's just the bastards out there act on them.

It's in everyones society for christ sake... I can remember going to France and Germany and most of them being cunts, but there are other natives in those countries that are nice.

Point being: Every country has a few rich cunts that are snobby.


Get over it.

Lots do act that way...and it's a shame...thinking you are on top of the world just because of where you are from.

[quote="Chronic Diarrhea":45039]He had every right to respond that way. I'm sorry Americans treat others like shit, they were probably rude ass yankees from NYC anyway. Us hicks down in the south at least have common decency, while a New Yorker would stab you in the face if someone offered him/her 5 dollars for it.[/quote:45039]

That has got to be the dumbest thing that ever came out of your big mouth !! What the fuck do you know about NY'ers ?? You probably were never there!! Oh, i get it, it's the "stereo-type" thing and you believe it. I guess you fuck your sister too?...i mean, you are a "hick" and thats what they do right? They fuck their own family members?
Oh, BTW, in case you didn't know, the war is over! (I'm talking about the civil war) JACKASS


As for the rest of you people who had bad experiences with "Americans", lemme ask you two questions.
1. Are you sure they were from America?
2. How old were they? (The guy who started this thread went to Mexico and was surrounded by a bunch of kids....what else do you expect from them......just look at this room here!!)

I traveled outside the US and never had any type of problems. The "locals" were very nice to me and commented how nice it was to meet someone from NY. They were diggin' my Brooklyn accent. I tend to treat people with respect and then see what happens.......I always put the ball in their court 1st. Too bad you peeps met dip-shits but, that happens sometimes. Also remember, sometimes the cultures are soooo different that it may seem the other person is being rude when in fact their not. I met many people from Europe in NYC and in the Hamptons...some of them seemed snobbish but it's just a cultural difference.

Arkan, you're just another example of people that crap their pants whenever they see or hear something they don't like. I guess you haven't noticed that I like to joke around a lot. There are rude ass people from all over America, south, north, west, etc... There are lots of rude asses at my school, including people from the north and people from the south. I'm sorry I offended you with my words.

No, but seriously I'm not trying to be an ass, I just like to make sarcastic comments. Sorry you couldn't see past that. And I'm not trying to flame you either.
