The question is simple. How do you feel about Americans as a people. Lets leave our government out of it. No Bush, no Iraq, no War on Terror. How about the American people? If you have been to America what do you have to say about us? What are some of your experiences with us that you have burned into your memory. If you havnt been to America...what did you think about any Americans you have met while they were travelling abroad. Stereotypes are allowed (freedom of speech), trolling is not(you dont have the freedom to act like a tool on this site).

Now, go ahead...you're on your soapbox.

*shrugs* They're nice enough as a people, but like all nations they have their ignorant, psycho-christain, rude extremists. Theirs are pretty vocal though.

I'll admit it, I used to just blanket hate you US citizens. Of course, I made excpetions for certain celebrities and rock stars. But until recently, I didn't really know anyone from the US in real life. By recently I mean in the last five years or so. Since then, I've been forced to revise my opinion. I hate your government with a passion, and that isn't going to change. That doesn't mean I can't see any good in it...but there you go. Toss me a Canadian or a US citizen...I can't tell you before hand if I'll like or dislike either one.

As for generalising...I think you guys are a little too diverse for that. Chile is much easier to generalise about;)

Some of the best people I know are Americans.

I found many Americans to be in general a friendly, kind bunch who are quite helpful. Though I did see some Americans now and then who were not so enjoying (not mean, just ignorant) - for example, in my trip in Buffalo I bought a hot dog and some sprite, and there was a small line. When I bought my hotdog, the guy behind me said: "Better watch it there little buddy, you might spend your whole month's paycheck on that food."

He had the dumbest chuckle ever, and he looked like what most people imagined the Southerner to act and look like.

Otherwise they were a cool bunch.

I like the american people, I dont like this administration, but i love the constitution. And i like that i can run for goverment as any party i want

Aww but they are really lovable and tame if you raise them together from a young age. :p

Just wondering...did you also blanket hate the French, English and Spanish?....Honest legit question.

First off, I question the political leanings in the poll when this was supposed to be about the people, not the government.


Second: being an American myself, I've got to like some Americans. And I do. I dislike some as well. People are people, regardless of the country they live in. Anyone who blanket hates everyone from a particular country is a bigoted fool, methinks.

Nope. Just the yanks. I think it began pretty early on...my Godmother was a nun who was gang raped because she was a Sandanista supporter. I learned about US involvement in various dirty wars in Latin America...did a paper on it in Grade 5 that just about got me booted out of school. We also used to take a road trip to Montana about once a year, and I hated the ignorant questions we'd get, like "do you live in igloos" and so on...that was when I could still rattle off all the states mind you. So yeah. It was just the US.

I hate Americans. They are all ugly and fat and stupid and mean and arrogant and many other uncomplimentary adjectives! :mad:

No, not all, don't worry, just keep watching your TV. *salivates*

Americans, I believe, are more ignorant on the whole than those of other nations. I like their patriotism, their economic conservatism and their unapologetic confidence, however. I've been told on more than one occasion that I am more American than I am Euro. I guess I am, in some ways.

Damn Americans are stealing our jobs! :mad:

Anyway, I don't like people in general but I know some really good Americans and some really shitty ones. There is no real answer, I like them fine.

I'm Floridian, that's something else entirely.

I like how, despite the OP's plea to leave the government out of it, so many posters still feel the need to promulgate their opinion of the administration :p

Na, you just haven't been around long enough to know I'm also a raving feminist, a huge supporter of transgendered people, big into Latin American history, education, etc etc etc. Aboriginal issues have been my main focus here on General lately, but I'm obsessed about many more things. Oh, like sex. And everything mentioned previously.

No, I've just stereotyped you as fanatical, and aboriginal issues being one of your major buttons.

Riiiiight. I don't actually recall you every putting any effort into a conversation with me, which causes me to stereotype you as trivial.

You're right, Yuengling is absolutely fantastic.

Riiiiight. I don't actually recall you every putting any effort into a conversation with me, which causes me to stereotype you as trivial.

What? I can't see your posts unless they're adressed to me?

being an American, i will be the first to admit that many Americans are ignorant hicks that litteraly dont know their asses from a hole in the ground (thank you Randy Newman). Our government is run by Americans, and therefore i cannot *not* include them in my response. I strongly dislike (and that's putting it rather mildly) the government right now, but as a whole, Americans are generally very nice, until you begin to talk politics. Even the most ignorant person in this country has an opinion on politics these days. But until you mention politics or beliefs or anything along those lines, most Americans are nice when they first meet you (unless they dont like your ethnicity for some reason...i.e. a KKK member meeting a black person, or some ignorant person that thinks all Hispanics are illegal aliens here to take their job away...etc)
There are, of course, the same greedy, selfish people here as there are anywhere else, but here there seems to be more of them and they always seem to be in control. But a vast majority of Americans are good people; just split on their opinions with no sign of a compromise in sight.

Contrary to the stereotypes of Americans being obese and stupid and all that, most of us arent obese (a bit over weight, perhaps, but not obese...actually, i'm UNDERweight, if anything...) and much smarter than we're given credit for (we might not be Asian, but then again, who is? ...oh, right...the Asians...:rolleyes: )
i'm going to stop babbling on and on now though and probably forget i ever made this post. reply to it if you wish, but i probably wont read this topic again, as i hardly ever read the forums here.

What? I can't see your posts unless they're adressed to me?
Yes, I'm really sure you read my replies in context, and in full. What's my stance on abortion by the way?

Eh, prolly something weird, if you bother to ask. What does that have to do with me finding you fanatic? You could be fanatic Pro-Choice or fanatic Pro-Life (Or both, if you think abortion is bad or just don't like it but still think the women should have the right).

Uh-huh. That you find me so extremely weird says more about you than it does about me. Maybe one day we can have a conversation, rather than you making odd assumptions about what I believe, and how 'fanatically' I believe it.

It's not that I find you weird, it's that I expect you to make your little test of me difficult, by choosing an out of the ordinary position of yours. We've all got weird positions.

Is that like..a chick with a dick?
Or a guy with a vagina?

I'm not sure...I dont think I've ever met a transgendered guy.

Sounds like a Magic Hat beer..

as a USian how could I not like my fellow citizens? There are some good people here who don't fit the stereotype at all. There may be a few who do (in my family no less) but it's not like there aren't those types everywhere. It's our govt that I cant stand and am embarassed at our actions as of late on the world stage and depressed about whats going on domestically, but all I can do is my small part in making a difference by pushing the viewpoint in the direction I would like to see my country go.

Hahahahahahaa.

Well, this is certainly akward...I am sooo fucking glad that this didnt just happen in person (although I dont think it could have).

k people... As an American, generally speaking I don't like Americans, and the thing is, I don't like them cuz they typically don't like change, they also do like their rights infringed upon. But there are times when they have to be. And I wont say what I think about Bush, or the corrupt government.

Some of the best people I know are Americans.

Stereotypes are allowed (freedom of speech), trolling is not(you dont have the freedom to act like a tool on this site).

Hmmm, this is so much trolling... I better do not tell that some people were asked wether Hitler is still chancellor of Germany. or link to this: http://www.centos.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=127or so this: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11178669&postcount=71

But then, I guess there is always a stupid group of people - in any nation.

I try not to judge all Americans solely by their less tolerant citizens.

I like Americans very much. I don't, however, like the assholes who currently "represent" them, run their government, or support their current administration. I also can't stand those religios zealots who proslatize at every operatunity and try to convert their country into an executive-run oppressive theocratic dictatorship. I could never support those who do not support freedom. Benjamin Franklin (who would currently be celebrating his three-hundreth birthday if he were alive) once said, "They who give up a little liberty in order to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. He was right. Once you give up your rights, it will be virtually impossible to get them back. Freedom is priceless.

I don't generalise about several million people, and my views tend to be left-wing.

No poll option for that, though.

my 2 cents:
I don't mind the americans as people, half my family is american and most americans I know are nice. Their international politics on the other hand, suck big time.

and @ Congressional Dimwits, aren't those religious zealots and the assholes that 'represent' them the same? ^_^

*Is an American*

Anyone who says "All (insert nation of origin) are...", and proceeds to explain a stereotype, is an asswipe.

That being said, all people can have tendencies to act, or think, or do something that most of his countrymen would also do.
Part of it may be common sense, or part of it could be where he/she was raised.

People from Britian for instance, tend to eat beans on toast occasionally for breakfast... that sort of thing...

However, thats about it.
The United States has every culture on Earth living in it, and its people are equally as varied.
Some of us lean to the left politically, and other lean to the right.

I look at my fellow Americans, and I see many things.
I see a growing tendency to let the television think for us, hearing about world events on television, and then listening to some douchebag like Bill O'Reilly, or Mike Moore tell us how we should feel about what just heard.

We have a tendency to allow our elected officials to do some pretty awful shit in our name, and convince ourselves we can do nothing about it, and matters could always be worse.
We do this becuase we have so much, for so long, and we often take what have for granted.

We are taught to be patriotic and that our nation is better than anyone elses, and many of us, take this far too seriously, and dont realize that many places are really cool as well.
Theres nothing wrong with loving the country your from, but pledging blind obediance to an ideal, when the people who represent that ideal are bastards, makes one also a bastard, and a dumb one at that.

Nobody likes dumb bastards.

Dont call Americans stupid.
We arent stupid....our devious assholes in power are taking the soil and everything its worth from YOUR devious assholes in power.
Our schools are educating YOUR children as well.
We are smart enough to have our fingers in every pie in the world, and are leading the world in some very good and noble things, in addition to all the greedy backstabbing shit we pull as well.

As for our military....
Yes, its bloated, and far too large, and is used as Sword of Damoclese for every malcontent third world nation we see fit...

BUT....if a European nation were attacked by some other larger, more powerful nation, you know damn well you'd be happy to see us.
Think of us as that big arrogant guy your sister married, who you know works for the mafia as a leg-breaker.
Sure, he does some shady shit, but if you need some legs broken..you'll be glad you know him.

Things are coming around, douchebags in office are replaced.
Sometimes they are replaced with lesser douchebags.
That time is coming.

Our schools are educating YOUR children as well.

Huh?? :confused:

Huh?? :confused:


How many of the world's elite send thier kids to our "Ivy-League" schools?

Our schools are educating YOUR children as well.


Gawd I hope not. Please tell me that's a typo or something.

I particularly enjoyed hearing about the survey of high school kids in the US a few years ago where 45% could not name a country in asia.

How many of the world's elite send thier kids to our "Ivy-League" schools?

Last I heard, your ex-presidents were sending their daughters to Oxford.

Our Ex-Presidents are barely subhuman.
We actually keep them around as experiments to see how they react in "normal" society.

They are to be ignored at best...and dont offer them peanuts...it offends them.

A couple of rich bastards... the vast majority prefer their education over here :D

The thing about rich bastards is, their education is more or less irrelevant. They'll never put it to any use anyway. I'm guessing that for the most part, your "Ivy League" schools are used to get some contacts into the right circles :p

Took me ages to find a dictator who was educated in the US. Got one:

Disturbingly, some of the others turned up with references to Sandhurst and other British institutions.

*shrugs* They're nice enough as a people, but like all nations they have their ignorant, psycho-christain, rude extremists. Theirs are pretty vocal though.

heck ya, but what is wrong with that?
Its a Democracy. me and my fellow ignorant, psycho-christain, rude extremists have a right to voice our opinions about throwing gays into jail, ending all abortion and stopping the satanical stem cell research.

You think its not the same over here? Oxford and Cambridge have come under fire because of their selection methods before

Americans are OK, but pity how they decide who they vote for sometimes.

I hate Americans. They are all ugly and fat and stupid and mean and arrogant and many other uncomplimentary adjectives! :mad:

...Does that mean you haet me?

:(

WAAAAAHAHAH!!!

Why is that that people so often neglect a centrist choice when formulating their poll options? Your poll sucks!!!

If I say that americans are all the inhabitants that live in the continent of America I could be seen like a total smuck, no?

Yeah, "target" would be more accurate

No pun intended.

In which case, I really like Americans, especially South Americans. ;)

I'm generally fond of Americans.


Maybe thats because I am one.....

Or maybe its just me?

I think you size it up quite well...

I'll agree with much of what you said here. I'll specify that the "average guy" like myself-likely you too- goes about his or her daily life doing the best he can to do his job to raise his kids and provide for them. Making sure they are well fed, clean, healthy, educated and entertained.
Do we have more opporotunities than many other countries? Yes. We still have to work for them.
We are also among the most compassionate and charitable people on earth.

If I say that americans are all the inhabitants that live in the continent of America I could be seen like a total smuck, no?
Yes but a correct smuck, nonetheless.

Taking into account that the original poster probably meant Citizen of the US of A, I have come to the conclusion that they are, as a people, very insecure. Case in point: the many thread asking how we feel about americans.

See, the thing is, those submarines were never intended to be used as submarines. We wanted those to be giant tanks of water riddled with holes that we could use to stop forest fires. That theory went up in flames when our "tanks" caught fire. :D

The question is simple. How do you feel about Americans as a people. Lets leave our government out of it. No Bush, no Iraq, no War on Terror. How about the American people? If you have been to America what do you have to say about us? What are some of your experiences with us that you have burned into your memory. If you havnt been to America...what did you think about any Americans you have met while they were travelling abroad. Stereotypes are allowed (freedom of speech), trolling is not(you dont have the freedom to act like a tool on this site).

Now, go ahead...you're on your soapbox.

Well, Americans as a whole are great. If they see something that needs fixing they normally try to fix it. With or without permission from the Tools at the UN ;)

Americans are nicely indepedant, although you still have the minority of mind controlled people who think that everything Bush does is wrong because Bush is Satan and don't support anything spearheaded by Republicans.

But luckily, those idiots are in the minority.

I think that most people's views on Americans depend on the majority that they meet or see. There are alot of mean, stupid hicks here. Alot of my friends are nice and well educated. Most people say that midwestern americans are nice. I don't really see where they get that from. Maybe, if we're compared to people from New York (no offense) or places around there.

I like them in general. They tend to love me cos of my accent :p

My best friend in the world is an American, so yes, I tend to like them. I just tend to be a bit more left wing...

Halfbreed']Well, Americans as a whole are great. If they see something that needs fixing they normally try to fix it. With or without permission from the Tools at the UN ;)

Regime change to get rid of a nasty bastard in Iraq? Check.
Regime change in Zimbabwe? (where?)
Regime change in Burma? (where?)

New glasses required I think.

Cant do everything at once, can we?

..Also, if you want these regimes changes, Europe could help you know.

Some are nice, some are average, some aren't nice *shrugs*
Judging all Americans as one big group is kinda crazy. I judge them as individuals.

Refutation:

no need to love or hate the USA to see that statement has been debunked.

Help? Europe could do it.

On the other hand, europe wanted nothing to do with iraq without UN backing.

A point lost on Mr Bliar.

American's can be pretty nice, although I must say I prefer the americans that live outside of the USA to the ones living in the USA. I have/had a lot of american friends and I don't think they'res anything wrong with them.

Option 4, and I live in Wisconsin o.0

Americans are arrogant, narcisstic, fear/hate/warmongers, they live and breathe materialism. If there was an American on fire right now, I wouldn't even spit on him

Yes, knowing the type of person you truly are, I wouldn't put it past you.

Yes, and you know me so well. :rolleyes:

I may dislike the US, but I do like most individual Americans.

As a society, I do find them generally ignorant of the world and very self-centered towards their country.

Individually, they are usually like anyone else that I have met and are good people.

Yes, and you know me so well. :rolleyes:


Don't worry, I know....Certain things about you. ;)

Even without considering the state you are in yourself? Its not very gentlemen-like to call a woman a whore. Just thought I'd bring it up.

I call 'em as they are.
as you see them, actually.

That said, can't hardly fault someone when they express their disdain in a thread asking their opinion on said topic, now do we? I thought your first response was the best one.

And remember, "Don't feed the troll".

QFT.

I have to say, though, that I'm utterly amazed at how many of the Americans I know go "What the hell? I didn't know that!" when I mention some headlines going around on international papers and news services. I swear, news services in the US are almost all crap.

Oh I could go sign into my real nation, but that would just shatter my image as a nice guy. I can't go about doing that, now can I? :)

But the troll's not expressing an opinion on the topic anymore, merely targeting me, which I find rather amusing as it's revealed itself to be a coward hiding behind a puppet. That said, however, you're right. "Don't feed the troll" is the best policy. :)

Sure. Now about Canada... :p

What about it? ;)

The US rocks, especially the South! God bless America!

The US rocks, especially the South! God bless America!
I don't really like most American people, especially those in the South! Allah Akhbar! (Ok, maybe not the last bit)

First off, I question the political leanings in the poll when this was supposed to be about the people, not the government.
I too question your motives for including political persuasion in the poll when you state that you want to keep politics out of this thread.

Since you opened the door, I immensely dislike the foreign policy of the Bush administration, but I generally like Americans and I have some friends and family that live there.

I have vactioned many times in the US and I have always enjoyed my stay in your country.

What about it? ;)

It's just north of the US. :p

First off, I don't really think that you can judge EVERYONE from a country easily, but in general, I'm definetly more than a little bit fond of my fellow Americans. People seem to have this mental image of people from the South being racist rednecks, but from what I've seen down there it isn't true at all. People from the South are the friendliest people in this country for the most part, much friendlier than the assholes up here (I'm from New England). Also, I'd say that oddly enough, racism is worse up here too, people in New England just hide it and pretend to be "cosmopolitan" instead. I used to believe all of the stereotypes about the South too, so really, it's best not to judge unless you've been there yourself.

And of course I like Canadians and their #1 export... Degrassi! :)

Oh, sweet jeebus...

Ive been to the US a couple of times, and really they dont seem much different to us Europeans. Shame that their politics is so polarized.

Needs a "neutral, don't give a frag about politics" option.

Really? I'm from the South, I've never been up to NE, but everyone's said that they are pretty snobby up there... However, here in the south (at least where I live) people can be pretty snobby too... :headbang:

I've never met any Canadians, so I can't personally say I like them/dont like them. And Degrassi is not their #1 export (but it is still pretty good :D)

And of course I like Canadians
Thank you. See, everybody love us.

and their #1 export... Degrassi! :)
Hardly. Our number one export would be Celine Dion. At least, I heard she reached number one in many music charts. ;)

Good-save your spit. And your breath, while you're at it.

I don't know. I must confess the general american appears to be somewhat moronic, and chronically jingoistic, however their "alternative" kids are a delight to meet.

My High School had a pretty extensive exchange program, and we got a bunch of students from Germany, France, a few from the UK, etc.

It seemed that those people are just like us Americans--they're mostly nice, they try to help when they can, they like to joke around, etc.

Now I haven't actually been to a foreign nation yet, but from what I've seen, there's really not that much a difference between us Americans and you.

Well, except for our fat asses. We had this guy from Germany who was so thin I thought I could stare at him and break him in half.

Yeah, when I lived in the UK (when I was a little kid...) none of the kids there were much different from the kids here in the US (though the accents were different). I went to France once on vacation and a girl came up to my sister and I and said something in French (it must of been to the effect of "Hello") but neither of us understood her, being very young at the time. It's quite the same in the US, actually, except that some kids can be a bit rude about their questions (but I expect that could be anywhere).

As for the last part... we should ban fast food.

Send us more women from sweden . They make wonderfull exchange students ! Can we keep them ?

Americans are generally friendly though a bit too friendly if you ask me and very weird about there constitutional rights and such (though American ladies love British accents :D)

all in all there like that mad uncle with the rifle everyone loves them but I wouldn't leave them alone with children or anything that can explode

i don't like the yanks, i rather fight agains them then with them puerly through hatred, although my bias view out the way, americans are arrogant, fat loud mouths, that dont really have a clue about anything else then what effects them and their own country, i must admit there have been a few good ones like every country i guess

Yeah, well if we hadn't bailed your ass out in WWII you'd be posting in Japanese right now. Ungrateful filthy foreigner.


I guess I told him.

lol we didn't need your help as i remember 10000 japs ended up sick or dying just trying to get to port morsby before they even encountered the Australians, and the attitude towards the Americans at the time was over paid over sexed and over here. and the only reason you help us was because of pearl harbor, if that never happened you would never have joined.

You'd be posting in Japanese and eating sashimi. You should be grateful, but you're not. You should be personally thanking me, but you're not a big enough man to show gratitude.

how does a fat American lard arse that sit at his computer day in and day out deserve gratidude for evens that happened over 60 years ago, the Australians did a mighty fine job we didn't need your help the only reason you even join the war was because you were personly attacked by the Japanese, in the 2 years before that the war was still going.. and where was America??? sitting once again on its fat arse not giving a care about anything else but its own affairs.. you have to remember it took the deaths of some 5000 men i think (correct me if i'm wrong) and sinking of many ships for the Americans to even notice there was a war going on.. sure the contributed in small amounts in Britan and made some planes and tanks.. but nothing major

anyway during the war most of my family fought for the germans, only a few great uncles fought for the australians rather..

but what the americans did do for my family, one of my australia great uncles was on a prison boat and he was killed when the americans sank in, and a couple of my great cousins were in the hitler youth died in norther fance facing the americans and canadians

I think 'nice' is a fairly universal concept
