- 1. (American) (3562↑, 1354↓)Technically, an American is someone from the Americas - i.e. North or South America. However, it is so commonly referring to people from the USA that we'll just ignore that point for now. An American is someone who lives in the USA. Not all americans are overweight, ignorant pricks with an addiction to burgers and flag waving. Some of them are actually friendly, intelligent people\! Remember, kids: just because meet or hear one person from a certain place doesn't mean that everyone from there is like it. Oh, and did I mention that the actions of the US government don't ALWAYS speak unanimously for every last citizen of the USA? Just wanted to clear that up. They do think some wierd things, though.. They call football soccer, American football football, aluminium aloominum, jam jelly and so on. But belittling them for differences like that would be a bit petty of me, wouldn't it?
While playing a game, I once met an American who was a mindless, stereotyping, bigoted, ignorant prick. But did that make me hate all Americans? Well, yes. But eventually I got over it. I would like to find that guy and cave his skull in, though..
Author: do I have to put something here? http://american.urbanup.com/7861542. (American) (2584↑, 1069↓)Probablly the most bashed on country in the world. Things you should know: 1. Yes, we are aware the term "American" can be used for anyone living in North or South America. The term "British" can be used for someone from Scottland, Ireland, or England. What else do you want us to call ourselves, United-Statesians? Besides, I don't see you calling people from Brazil or Argentina or Cuba American anyways. Why should we? 2. Yes, we are aware our President shows serious signs of mental retardation. All goverments have their problems. 3. We're not stupid. We don't go around speaking "American", laughing at all other "American" speaking countries thinking they stole the idea from us. 4. We're not all crazy extremists or blind conservatives. 5. Your country probally produces almost as much pollution as ours, and seeing as the US is about 3,718,695 cm2 (9,631,420 km2; gasp\! an American knowing about the metric system? unheard of\!) large and has 302,431,000 citizens, we're not doing that bad. 6. Celsuis- Farheniet, Meters- feet, Pounds- killograms. Gallons- liters. We use both you know. 7. We don't hate all Canadians, Brits, Cubans, and Japaneese people. We don't think all Muslims are terrorists. No matter what Bush says, we most definitely don't eat "freedom fries". We don't all support Iraq. We don't think Pakistan is in Africa. 8. Just because we can't trace our ancestors in America back for 329 years, it doesn't mean we love our country less. 9. Patrioism is never a bad thing. Even if you lived in the crappiest country in the world, it's still your country. 10. No, we don't think everyone in the world celbrates July Fourth with us. 11. We don't eat McDonald's everyday or drive five cars. 12. Not everyone speaks like their from Texas. There are forty-nine other states you know. 13. We don't think we're better than you. 14. Lastly, half the people that bash us are allies with us. Our country has relations in more than half the world. Most likely, we're best friends.British: "They're bloody pricks too. Look at Bush." French: "Look at Iraq. What a dumb mistake." American: "Dude, we know our president's an ass."

(american) (655↑, 483↓)This definition if for everybody who stereotypes America. - Just because we have a high obesity rate does not mean every last single person is fat, I'd rather be fat than be starving , I think most normal people would agree - We are not all stupid, yes there are stupid people but what country doesn't have stupid people, we have most of the elite universities in the world - We aren't all ignorant, many of us have a desire to travel outside the U.S - In school they teach us the metric system, and yes I know zero degrees celcius = 32 degrees faranheit - Anybody who says America deserved 9/11 is heartless and evil, they were innocent people and had nothing to do with the goverment's action - I know that American means anybody from North, South, or Central America but mainly it means somebody from the U.S because you don't refer to somebody from Brazil as a south american but just as Brazillian to make it more specific - You can't just sterotype a whole nation and be correct, I could say that in England everyone has bad teeth and drinks tea but that is not true for everybody and it is ignorant which is exactly the same when you try to sterotype Americans - Also the joke is on the people who are from different countries and sterotype us, I bet you thousands of people from your country come to ours so you are also making fun of your own peoplePerson A: Hahaha Americans are fat and stupid\! Person B: That is ignorant because American is not a race, Whites, blacks, Arabs, Hispanics, and others come to America so your making fun of your own people

(American) (136↑, 37↓)People who reside in Northern or Southern America, but usually pertaining to the United States. Contrary to popular opinion, not all Americans are fat, eat at McDonalds, drive 4 SUVs, or think their country is the best. Many Americans I know eat like normal people though. Last time I checked there, I have seen more ads for healthy, organic food than for McDonalds. It wasn't like that a few years ago though. SUVs are becoming less common, and there is now a growing number of Hybrids on the road. Driving a Peugot around on an interstate highway wouldn't be as safe as a Prius, but still very efficient. Americans also aren't stupid at geography either. Most do know that England and Scotland are two entirely different countries. Not every American is arrogant about their country. The US is the world's lone superpower, but whether it is the "best" is subjective and must be based on many variables. Most the negative definitions about the US come from Americans themselves. Oh, and you can make fun of American culture, but chances are if you have a computer and internet then you are as greedy a capitalist as they are. America is a huge country, so there are definitely many nutcases out there, but you can't judge an entire country based on a few pricks on the internet. I have met many people who have traveled to America and had a grand time there. America may not be perfect, but it has a lot to offer if you look in the right places.Bigoted American: "Our country can kick your ass\! Our culture is sooo much better" (answers Japanese-manufactured cell phone) Bigoted European: "Whatever, you greedy capitalist yanks" (takes huge handful of McDonald's french fries) Observer: "Guys, shut the fuck up, you both sound like idiots."

Author: Jaymz™ http://american.urbanup.com/312113711. (american) (95↑, 45↓)An American is English, French, Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian, Greek, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Australian, Iranian, Asian, Arab, Pakistani, or Afghan. An American is Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, or Muslim. An American is also free to believe in no religion. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for God. An American is from the most prosperous land in the history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes the God given right of each man and woman to the pursuit of happiness. An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need. When Afghanistan was overrun by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country. As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan. The best products, the best books, the best music, the best food, the best athletes. So you can try to kill an American if you must. Hitler did. So did General Tojo, and Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung, and every bloodthirsty tyrant in the history of the world. But, in doing so you would just be killing yourself. Because Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom.

(Real) As an American citizen, I hate calling myself an American, here are my reasons. Americans are [ignorant] and respond to anything different from what they are accustomed to as being "stupid" or worse than theirs. America's most favorite liquid is gasoline, which they eagerly feed over-sized vehicles Americans cannot pronounce Rrr, they say are. Americans cannot realize how stupid they actually are being and how limited their knowledge is. Americans have no taste in [culture], [architecture], or any form of something other than [fast food] and [television]. The American dream was long-ago demolished from its original European descents during the time of the founding fathers into an ignorant and tasteless existence in identical neighborhoods of the same homes, same cars, same food, etc that is saved from mass-suicide by television and stubborn nationalism. All that being said please do realize that they are not truly horrible people, and this does not describe everyone who is a documented member of the USA.I saw a guy who thought a bidet was a urinal and when I told him that was not what he thought it was he ridiculed it and described it as homosexual, naturally it ocurred to me to be an American.

Use of the word is often a point of contention for Europeans, South Americans, and other Pussies in general. Americans are stereotyped as fat, lazy, or Imperialist. "Fat" due to getting off their ass and Work for a living, instead of relying on government to shit them a meal from the minute conditions are 100% ideal. "Lazy" due to the fact the United States is the most productive nation on the Entire damned planet Per Capita AND GDP, and the average U.S. worker pulls more hours than any Fucking lazyass country in Europe. (Look it the fuck up.) I suppose that debunks that load of retarded european horse shit entirely. Americans are referred to as "imperialists" because in 200 years they accomplished more than europe put together. They are called imperialists for their tradition of warring with democracies. Wait... we've never Gone to war with a democracy? Well I'll be damned. Guess that seperates us from alot of other countries then. While Europeans are busy with a fantasy of having the next Hitler or Stalin's cock up in their asshole, Americans ruin their dream by bombing their boyfriend straight to hell before they can become a threat to world peace.

Author: The Chickenfoot http://american.urbanup.com/495155237. (American) (7↑, 3↓)Any person from the Americas but usually means someone from the U.S. Contrary to the popular opinion of other countries (France,England, ect.) we are not all fat, stupid, arrogant, and violent. We still have the leading education system in the world, we are well aware that 1/3 of the world hates us and are not war mongers. If people want to criticize us for stereo typing they should at least avoid using stereo types in their argument. True we do have a obesity problem because of a high fat diet with little exercise to compensate. This is mostly because are nation is spread out across a vast distance and drive everywhere because of that.We are not violent rednecks our country has only fought wars when we believed necessary for the security of our citizens. Which if you look at the middle east and Europe where pretty calm. Also most of you owe your freedom to the U.S. for saving you in world war 2. So next time you say Americans are stupid, dum, violent, and arrogant remember we are leading in education, we saved many countries from being taken over by Nazi Germany. Also we are not all monolingual, all states now require 2 years of the same language to graduate and unlike other countries that require you to learn the native language before getting citizen ship the U.S. does not, in fact we don't even have an official language. P.S. it's not arrogant to defend you country from slander.Ese [americano] es muy amable, inteligente y tiene un excelente español. For those you who aren't [Bilingual] maybe you should quit mocking the U.S. and learn some Spanish so you can translate that.

Some people are incredibly intelligent, some actually having ambition, aiming to study at the most prestigious schools in the country like [Yale], [Harvard], and Stanford. [Obesity] is a major problem here, but so are [anorexia] and [bulimia], especially in[teen girls]. We call [Futbol] soccer, and [American Football], Football. Calling soccer Futbol here will make people think you mean American Football, because Real Madrid is definitely not an American Football team here. I don't understand the American Football craze;being of Latino descent I do understand the FUTBOL craze, and if you ask around, yes some people can actually name five European club teams.Why do us Americans only dream of [traveling] to France and Italy? Both beautiful places, but why not open our eyes and see the other places we can discover, like [Argentina], [Columbia], Japan, [Brazil], Mexico, Dominican Republic, South Africa, [Fiji], Egypt, [Portugal], [Ghana] and Spain? Its a big world and living in a single culture all your life is as boring as [The Hills].

A stereotypical American unlike me, is overweight not very intellectual and hated because of a stuck up attitude. We do not see the appeal in using words such as: yank, bigot, and football (soccer). A stereotypical American believes that America in everyway is superior to any other country.1) Someone from Brazil is American. 2) An American is to the world as New Jersey is to America. For an example of a stereotypical American watch the show Diner's, Drive-In's, & Dives.

Of course, there are people like this is in America, but you will find them elsewhere, too. Also catagorized as redneck, demanding, bitchy (in males and females,) and spell terribly, but these are not as common.Look at that fat American girl over there telling her Dad in a bitchy way how she got an F on her report card in a redneck voice\!

Author: The American who is mad http://american.urbanup.com/577266443. (American) (30↑, 31↓)A citizen of a country in which "freedom" has been stressed to too much of an extent for far too long. Yes, the word "American" unfortunately is commonly correctly defined as "an ignorant, bigoted, gluttonous prick". Those Americans who have exploited the word "freedom" are an embarrassment to say the least. I'm an American and I must say I'm humiliated on a day-to-day basis by my fellow citizens' ignorance, but to those of you who are reading this as a non-American citizen, please know we're not all the same. Anyone who is well educated in world history, however, surely knows of mistakes made by nations in the past. The United States is still a young nation and therefore still exhibits the ignorance that older countries have already learned from. When you think of the word "American" try to remember that while most Americans exploit the word "freedom" many of them acknowledge the word "accountability". Fellow Americans: We can change these problems. Humble Yourselves\!Englishman: "Oh dear. Americans have such awful grammar. And why do they talk so loud?" American: "What you talkin' 'bout bitch?" Englishman: "Ugh..."

America (USA) is fueled by a vast array of citizens, most are stereotypes by some other race/religon in there own country. The south tends to be more stereotypical, that doesnt mean ALL people are stereotypical. The Gaverment is corrupt, they are nothing but evil Hell-bound politicians that only care about themselves...proof? Dick Cheney and George Bush. America has so many laws pertaining to political correctness that it is slowly turning its citizens against it, can't even say "Under God" in the pledge in school. Alot of Americans are under false pretenses that "America is the best country ever\!", when its not. Massive debt, corruption, rascism, and violence are not things to be proud of, unless your last name is Bush or Cheney. Unfortunatly, most countries fall into destruction eventually.

Author: BlueTrousers http://american.urbanup.com/503167056. (American) (4↑, 14↓)No one stereotype can define an entire people, in every country (except Scotland- the lary bastards) there are good, bad, stupid and intelligent. It is believed that the majority of Americans are retarded, fat fuckers with the negotiation skills of a landmine. Now this may be true for 79% of the population, but lots of them are caring, free loving people who want nothing but peace - these are the hippies. Useless layabouts who try to re-invent the corrupt system of the human world into what is essentially the same thing but only ever manage to achieve a severe sense of smugness, and a drug induced state of euphoria which they likely won't remember. Most Americans like to consider themselves international do-gooders and world leaders in ethics with such organisations as the KKK and NAMBLA. In response to the English's comments concerning their language and culture, they refer to themselves as the best parts of the world put together (like a sausage), and insist their variant is the correct, despite it being called ENGLISH. Rather than a sausage, a more accurate representation of the home of the retard with a superiority complex and land of ignorant narcissists, would be the creature of a Mary Shelley novel. I would bet that at least 85% of Americans would have to research that last reference to understand it. :) Ya gotta love 'em\!Me: .......would be the creature of a Mary Shelley novel, American: What in the name of the sweet Jesus Christ every bodies lord does novel mean?

Our country is the coalescence of just about every other culture in the world. Although most Europeans think of the average American as being a fat WASP, this is simply not true. There is so much diversity in the nation that it's too hard to generalize. I am pretty modest and hate bragging, but I have to say that I am fairly intelligent/articulate. I cannot wait to see the rest of the world in its entirety. So many Americans around me feel the same way. Although some people can be ignorant, I resent them, and the same is true of any other culture anywhere. I will have a celebration the day George W. Bush is out of office. He is perhaps the worst president our country has ever seen... and can certainly stand next to Millard Filmore in the hall of shame. The fact that he was re-elected, it just blows my mind. But I digress. Back to the point, Americans are not one people. In the same way that British citizens, Frenchmen and Middle Easterners cannot be typified. Our country has accumulated a terrible reputation over the years... but I hope to make friends in other countries anyway. Say what you will about our excuse for a government, but please, don't think of us in the same light.British person: Americans are stupid, fat, lazy, ignorant people with nothing to add to this planet. American person: You're stupid, lazy and ignorant for just saying that. Look beyond the rep.

Americans have some of the richest cultural traditions in the entire world. There are even separate cultures within cultures. For example, look at the differences between the American South and New England; these places are very different from one another, ranging from the way they talk to the food they eat to the majority-religion. Then look into the different cultures of the people in each region, Southern Blacks differentiate from Southern Whites, and both of them differentiate from New Englanders. Even though we have many differences, we are united under a cultural blanket filled with unyielding national pride and patriotism that you European fucks could only dream of having. We know that people across the world are racist against us, but they look the other way when we tell them about our first class universities and the encouragement from all sides to think free-spiritedly. They ignore the fact that Americans have done more good for the world than almost all others. They don't hear about how we donate more money to suffering people all over the world than dozens of countries put together. They don't care about all of the good things we do, just the bullshit. Americans are talked about all over the world; if you're an American, try it; go to some weird country and see what the people say to you.

The American culture is a loose conglameration of many different cultures, centering on european cultures because of the "melting pot" philosophy To those of you who dislike America, think of this: Hypocrisy is to tote beleifs you yourself do not have, to say all americans are arrogant, stupid, proud is itself and arrogant, stupid and proud notion.

Author: Dave http://american.urbanup.com/58841276. (american) (24↑, 118↓)One who lives in the United States of America, obeying the law, following community standards and ethics, paying taxes, speaking the language, exhibiting national pride, and following the ideals of the founding fathers: self-reliance, ingenuity, duty, responsibility, and RESPECT.Domingo is an American: he makes an active effort to obey the laws of the land, pays his taxes instead of living on handouts, speaks English, and treats people with respect. He celebrates his Latin culture, but he's proud to be an American, and calls himself an American, not "hispanic-american", "multi-cultural", nor "mexican". Some day, Domingo is going to run for governor of California, and I'll vote for him. Umbobo is from Nigeria, and although he lives in the United States, he lives under the assumed name "John Bobo", steals money from people, and considers America his personal toilet. He operates with impunity because he knows the law can't catch him, and they will just deport him if they do catch him, and he can just come back and shit on everyone some more. Umbobo is NOT an American, he is a piece of [shit]. Jose is an undocumented migrant worker. Jose finds it easier and easier to skirt the law, and eventually outright break the law to suit his needs. Although there is a legal process for living and working in the United States, Jose chooses to do whatever benefits him the most instead. Jose sends his kids to public school and gets free healthcare at the county facility, but does not pay taxes. Jose engages in identityh theft by using someone else's Social Security Number to obtain employment illegally, and in some cases, he uses their personal information to sign up for bank accounts and credit cards. Why not help himself? He feels that since he lives here, he deserves it\! 15 of Jose's closest relatives live with him in a 2 bedroom house, parking vehicles on the lawn and trashing out the neighborhood. Jose's kids have been brought up to disregard the law, and are arrested on a regular basis. Since Jose's oldest kids are also illegal, they just get released instead of incarcerated, because the cops don't want to fill out the extra paperwork, and the legal process to incarcerate illegals is too convoluted to follow. Jose knows that this is because his government, the mexican government, is closely involved in forming US policy regarding mexican illegals. Jose's kids are growing up to be competent and dangerous rapists, thieves, and murderers. Jose takes pride in his mexican heritage, and prominently displays a mexican flag in the back window of his truck. Jose feels that it's COMPLETELY UNJUST for him to be expected to put forth an effort or pay for services he receives. Although Jose LIVES in America, he is not an American. Jose is a parasite.
Author: Bob-American http://american.urbanup.com/401741277. (american) (99↑, 193↓)While several have said the most obvious fat, stupid, wasteful, rich and racist. I'll add a few new ones to all those hateful, ugly comments. Americans are truly for the most part caring and giving people. Most people wish they could be American. There are thousands, maybe even millions of foreigners who try every year to get that coveted citizenship. Most are tolerant, but there comes a time when enough is enough, that being said it is almost the norm to bash Americans and if an American show any sense of pride they are labeled a dreaded "Ugly American" Americans are for the majority the complete opposite of the bible thumping hick stereotype. Americans are of various races, religions and cultures a young country that is better than the countries who consistently bash them yet ask for our help when their pathetic and lousy asses can't get their shit together\! Americans can handle being called every negative name in the book by citizens of countries that are suppose to be allies. Some of these foreigners are in the US spouting their hate and they wonder why we don't like them???? It seems as if being a "super" power is not so super. If it means dealing with bs like anti-american rants. Americans just plain kick ass. It is just fact. Anyone who is an American basher is nothing but a lowlife piece of trash who only wishes they could be the shit coming out of an Americans ass. To those Americans who are ashamed of being American go fuck yourself. And to the other Americans keep Rockin'\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!1.This kicks ass\!\! This is American\! 2.Oh no\! My country is in trouble\! we need help call an American\!

Author: Dave http://american.urbanup.com/45137580. (american) (24↑, 119↓)A term used to describe citizens of the country "America" (Shortened from "The United States of America") On a less objective angle... An American (From the country America. Yes, while it can technically be used to describe those on the continents on the western hemisphere, no one else uses the term, therefore, it is fair to say) is someone who supports their country. And no, that does not mean agreeing with everything the government says or does (It's doubtable that any average citizen around the world agrees with their government completely) but to call one's self a citizen of a country, commiting acts of treason make such a statement questionable. While the United States is lenient on letting its people badmouth and wish for their country's loss, demoralizing the troops who are working so hard for their country and to liberate the innocent people of the Middle East, it is hard to call someone an American when that person is embarrassed to even be part of The U.S. No, being patriotic is not being prejudice (Although, I personally believe that everyone is prejudiced in one way or another, such as 'my mother is better than yours'). By definition, it is the pride in one's country. If you hate your country so much, instead of rant about it, why not do something, or better yet, leave. But I digress. Sorry to say this, but it's just not good enough to have legal papers to be a citizen of a country. At least have some sense of loyalty, eh? Like, I don't know... not making Iraq another Vietnam where we lose because of loss of support of the people and thousands of civilians died."I hate America\! I hope we fail miserably\!" "But... you said you're an American." "I am\! I was born here\!" "But you want your country to fail and destroy the livelihoods of you and your countrymen?" "Yes." "Um, why?" "Because George Bush sucks and we deserve it\!" "Then go to Venezuela and support Hugo Chavez and so South America can be united under one dicator..."
Author: A. Mei http://american.urbanup.com/285291481. (american) (78↑, 173↓)1. An individual from the continent of the americas 2. A term of nationality for a United States citizen, a nation who's population approximates 70% of western europe. Certain states within said nation are larger and more densly populated than many countries within Western Europe, which makes travel within and particularly outside of the nation monetarily prohibative for approximately 50% of the population. For that percentage, governmental working standards do not provide paid holiday remotely simiar to world standards (10 days per year.) These conditions prohibit experience outside of a limited sphere and therefore perpetuate ignorance and indifference. This results in the unfortunate election and re-election of a system who maintains these standards in the name of 'patriotism' and 'freedom;' whilst never really providing either iconic ideal. This group maintains psychological function by instituting self-protecting biases of uniqueness and self importance to maintain integrity, and anything that threatens it is fiercly defended against, furthering the vicious circle. Perhaps after witnessing certain evidential and undeniable mistakes of their chosen system of rule, the population will over time begin to realize that the government is providing more regulations than freedoms and will moderate their opinions accordingly. With the passage of time, perhaps these citizens can accept, and be accepted to a place among the world's great nations, rather than claiming their right as the 'best.'I am an american (from the south, no less) and I'm proud of my diverse and world aware 50%. I don't believe the US is the best country in the world, however, I don't believe the rest of the world has the right to take the piss on 'americans' for choices half of us didn't make and don't agree with, especially when their understanding is limited and often misinformed.
Author: Erin82 http://american.urbanup.com/153431182. (American) (112↑, 212↓)A nationality of people from the continent America, mainly used when refering to those from the USA. Although the country was colonized very recently in comparison to the civilised world. As reflected in their people, the country rapidly grew in size to become one of the largest presences in the modern world, this was mainly due to the over indulgence in the vast resources pilfered from around them. The re-colonization of the Americas was mainly from European countries the main ones being Britain, Spain, France and the Netherlands.From the lips of a Briton: "We have done some bad things in our time, we sent our criminals to Austrailia, and our stupid people to America. Unfortunately, it was found that a great number of convicts were later found to have not commited the crime."

(american) (37↑, 138↓)haha ok so well americans (as in USA not south americans etc. etc..)....they are not all fat, annoying, arrogant, stupid, idiotic people. A matter of fact, there is a very large amount of people who have an eating disorder, and plenty of thousands of people who are not even close to being fat. americans are very athletic, just watch the olympics compared to all the other countries they're doing really well. oh and cmon they are sex crazed, and if u have sex 3 times a week for a year its equivalent to running 75 miles. yes some americans are very rich, as a matter of fact most of them are and most of them have to work fucking hard to earn their money, but also there are many people who are middle class. ok yes americans do have a fetish with cars, but many other countries do to. yes we have a shit president, but really don't blame some random american, cuz they most likly hate bush or didnt vote for him or are to young to vote so dude dont hate teenagers for their president they had nothing to do with it. ok now yes america creates a lot of pollution but also they are very into the whole environment thing,plus america is fucking bigger than a lot of other countries so really they're doing pretty well. america has some of the top schooling, yes its been dropping ever since bush decided to go with plan 'a' 'fuck up america dearly' but a majority of people are highly educated. and yeah that pretty much sums that up. oooh plus if you hate america so much, think about who kicked out all the native indians and took over the land and made civilization...europeans, so really you kind of fucked us up first.American1: Ew Dude I fucking hate mcdonalds.

Anyone born in the american continent (americas) 2. citizen of a beautiful country located between Mexico and Canada. 3. A way of thinking, good in the sense that itdrives indutrious, hard working disciplined people. Bad in that it also limits understanding of other cultures and suppresses interest in learning other things different. Americans are great people, I have traveled all over their country's vast and beautiful territory, they are kind and in general happy to live their lives, patriotic and proud of their country as they should be. The first love of my life was an american girl incredibly smart and stunningly beautiful.They have a strong culture and traditions. The problem is that alot of americans have earned the abd reputation they have nowadays. They are ignorant and too arogant to learn or acknowledge their mistakes. A lot of american tourists are rude condescending and filthy. Many travel on spring break to other countries to piss on their cultures, soil their beaches and offend the locals. yes It is the money spent in these countries by americans that help the host countries economy in some cases it's the main source of income for many families but that doesn't give them the right to just go around raping culture.They come to restaurants and order food that's not on the m,enu or are allergic to coriander or nuts\! A lot of americans also have the silly idea that god has blessed them in particular, little do they realise that god has left mankind a long time ago and he has no favourites. They also have wierd concepts like "terrorism", "personal space","jesus camp". In general they are very smilar to other countries but they have a wierd society structure, problems in highschools, bullying so tough that it causes kids to shoot each other. They are culturaly very diverse but their different ethnic groups tend to alienate themselves. They have all this food and they waste so much, they think of the darndest things like all you can eat restaurants that for less than 10 bucks you can eat all kinds of food, dteaks, prawns, chicken, pizza, salads desserts and yet they will take a few bites out of one plate and then go for a different one and all that food is just thrwn away in the end. they do funny things like elect terminator for governor. Americans are hated all over thanks world for what their government has done to every single country . Let it be the wars and bombings or the econnomical invasion with the transantionals that force countries to buy american products instead of their own. The insaciable thirst for oil, the unilateral "free" trade agreements and so on. I like americans, I've lived in the US on various occations and the americans i know will always be good friends of mine, they are people that love other countries as well and respect different cultures. Yes, many didn't know the names of the canadian and mexican presidents or in what year columbus discovered america or what really happened in ww1 and ww2 but that doesn't make them bad people. In particular I will always remember my first love: Azure. p.s. In a way you have to understand that they are arrogant because they have a bit of an identity problem, they come from all over the world, they don't know anything about the world and their country doesn't even have a real name.Ex 1: person1:Damian is a cool guy, a bit strange but he is alright. person2:He's got a bit of an accent, Where's he from? person1:He's american. person2: Really? never would've guessed, he is pretty fucking cool. Ex2: person1: those american bastards are pissing on the beach\!\! person2: yes, they are the same ones that were treating the waitress at the hotel like shit yesterday. person1: let's go kick their ass\!
