Here in Europe we used to think Americans were stupid.

And it’s not like it’s prejudice from people never leaving their hometown. Nope, actually TV shows and movies make Americans look way smarter than they are.

Nope, the conclusion comes from people that met real Americans, either in Europe or in the US.

Last time I saw an American in Paris he was asking for ketchup on top of his duck breast. The most barbaric thing I’ve seen in a while 😂

  I get his point.
  What bothers me more than their stupidity is their boorishness and vulgarity of which they are totally unaware of.

  Man at least get your stereotypes right, the squirrel eaters are in Québec, we barely have them in Europe.

    Well I don’t know if it’s a common thing but I heard someone from there tell me about this so I thought that’s what you were referencing. In their story it was even about how you were limited to hunting a certain number of squirrels per day, but maybe they were winding me up haha.

Yes I don’t know what’s worse, their stupidity or their total lack of taste and style.
