Americans are FAT!!!
The average American is dumb!
Americans are ignorant about the rest of the world (in geography, politics, and everything else!) and think they are the best.
Americans like everything BIG.
Everyone in America is materialistic.
Americans think that everyone else that is from the same country know each other.
So, now that you've read some of the American stereotypes you probably don't agree to most of them and get mad about what the other countries think of you! EXACTLY! Yes, they mostly are funny but it is annoying because they're mostly not true! Well that is exactly how Canadians feel when Americans make up stereotypes. But what's even more sad, is the fact that most Americans don't realize that they are STEREOTYPES and not real! They believe most of the things I listed in my last blog... yet the rest of the world doesn't really believe all Americans are fat and what not. But what I can assure you is a true fact is that Americans need to learn more about other countries ESPECIALLY if they share a border!! Geography is also something Americans should educate themselves in, take a look at a world map once in a while, PLEASE!
I think that the funny part is that even though these are stereotypes of what other countries think of us, I think a lot of us think the same about other Americans as well :) For every one of those stereotypes I could give you at least 5 examples of Americans who are like that!
