That makes me think of Battle Programmer Shirase ep 1... every American they drew as fat!!!
We're not all fat. A majority, yeah.  Not all. British drink tea? Didn't know that.  heheh j/k I know y'all have named a whole meal after the stuff.  When I hear Britain I think "England".  Scotland, Ireland and Wales don't seen to enter into it. Monaco - gambling United States - power Switzerland - banks -k |

you got it all wrong grav! thats not how I interrpret britian at all! (well except for the tea part! 4'oclock! tea time!)..lets see, everyone around the age of 12 talks with an oliver twist accent..like this..Aye Gov'nah! -then- they move onto the posh accents. oh! Everyone has a corgi! And also dont forget the spooky nursery rhymes-
Lizzie Borden took an axe, She gave her father forty whacks- When she realized what she'd done, She gave her mother forty one! |

Here is what americans think of
Canada: mostly everyone is below average intelligence, lumber jacks, and sometimes refered to as "america's retarded little brother" Mexico: A craphole, everyone's poor, Drugs, everyone mexican tries to cross the border at least once a day, currupt police officers and goverment officals. Ireland: Always drunk. sweeden: hot tall blonds greece: yes, we think a lot of them are gay France: They give up to easy, anyone can conquer them, this is because they got over run with very little effort twice within 30 years. cheese eating WIne drinkers than are in love with jery lewis, always snobby to american tourists because we had to save thier ass so many times in the past, and so they have an inferiority complex. Japan: drunk japanese business men who peek on japanese school girls. Very polite, and will kill themselves if they are dishonored. Russia: Vodka, cold, everyone is bitter Austria: bunch of criminals germany: wienershnitzle, nice cars, those guys in polka outfits dancing around with beer in those laugers things. Britian: tea, bad teeth, dry humor Middle east: raghead terroists, doesnt matter what country in the middle east wether its friend of foe. well, thats all the sterotypes of countries that i can think of now, but these are not just my opinions, but a lot of americans think this. |
