Haha- americans.

Allow me to narrow my quote down, then:

Aside from whether a person agrees with his political point of view, a person doesn't get [an Ivy League education] without having some intelligence.

I can safely tell you that this is not true.

[genocidal]

what the..?

dude, he says "canadas economy would be shit without the US" which came from nowhere, so I mentioned that we may be dependant on the US for economy, but our government isn't trillions in debt.

You're taking this the wrong way, I'm not pissed off.. we're just not understanding eachother.

Volcs you keep talking about this huge debt that America is in. Guess who the government owes money to. That's right, OURSELVES! We owe money to our own domestic banks. Wow, who gives a flying fuck in hell about that since it doesn't affect any of our social programs, our military muscle, or our trading capability.

guys- you really don't get it. I'm not saying "AHAHA THE AMERICANS ARE IN DEBT THYRE ALL GONNA GO ON WELFARE BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT SPENT ALL OF THEIR MONEY". I'm not an idiot. What I'm saying is that your government is over-spending trillions of dollars. It's a fault I wanted to point out in retaliation to the "canada has no economy" statement...

I wasn't even saying it with any sort of spiteful intention, it was a "yeah, well ___________________ :P" type of comment.

RELAX.

Prime "Stupid American" example:

foreigners are jealous, obviously embarassed to admit.

Look at the results. "other countries" scored less than .7 better than americans.

The test was in english. Names were in english. Books were books that were originally english. It's not a very fair quiz. <_<

On the other hand, what is a fair quiz. Maybe if every country in the world made 10 questions about themselves and you'd ahve to answer them all.. Hm..

Bush doesn't seem to be able to bring all that education across, I have seen him do and say lots of stupid things. No matter where he studied.

And if they owe money to the banks, doesn't that mean its YOUR money, those banks currently DONT have because the Goverment OWES them it? Banks pay with the money from clients, so any money someone owes to the bank, it's your money.

Bushism's make me giggle.
And doing well at an ivy league school isn't that hard when your daddy is George Bush...

[Verthanthi]

doing well at an ivy league school isn't that hard

Never a good decision!

I hope you're not basing that on the fact that I have any ivy league education.

Yeah, that's why I nixed it originally. But what the hell, so far it's been true.

I loathe Americans. And yes, of course that's a generalisation, before all you second-year high school students start wetting yourselves. It's impossible to live life without generalising. Otherwise no one would trust doctors, and schools would be happy to employ convicted paedophiles. There are exceptions to every rule. The trick is to generalise only where conditions appear to be averagely valid - and in the case of Americans, that average includes an inflated sense of self-importance, a near total lack of grace or empathy, almost porcine self-interest, and blinkered nationalism. And that's the short list. I have met a handful of Americans who were warm, compassionate, self-deprecating and genuinely intelligent - but they are a handful. The majority of Americans remain loathsome, abhorrent and, truly nauseating. The US is the only country in the world where they should hand you the sickbag after you step off the plane.

I now hate canadians(more).

Gotta be the teeth

Conquistadors, the British sailed a lot to conquer other lands and scurvy became common, ate citrus fruit to help it... I'm guessing.
