Move to Europe mate, just as stupid, but you can’t understand half of what they’re saying (especially if there from near London). Or move to Australia or South Africa…Australia is in Putney in London, and South Africa is just across the bridge in Fulham, or so it would appear since I got back here last week… 🙄
Where are you living buddy? Perhaps its time for another XDC reunion? Im free for the next few weekends running 🙂
August 4, 2006 at 8:47 am #31448sickofitallParticipantActually, the americans I’ve met in real life (granted, I’ve not met many) have all been alright. The one exception is this lad who kept getting upset when I kept saying his name “Gary” in a Team America voice and waving my arms about in the “I’m in trouble” signal from the film. In his defence though, I did find out later from my mates that he wasn’t called Gary at all and they they’d just told me that because he was american.
I suppose if you were american and kept saying to some drunk that your name wasn’t Gary and he kept saying “Course it’s not, Gary” and then waving his arms about like a pillock you’d get a bit miffed as well.

dont stop with England!. the WORLD is FULL of idiots! 😈
Amen. Each country has it’s fair share of idiots… Anyone watch Panorama the other night, with the undercover filming showing Yobs at the World Cup? What a bunch of Wankers! I would like to torture them severly 😈
But, the Yanks do have the highest proportion of idiotic people. I mean, look how many of them actively support and vote for Bush! IDIOTS!
RE: America, it sums them up at the minute to look at the Lebanon situation. They are giving Aid and relief to the Labanese, whilst at the same time giving the Israeli’s the means to destroy them… WTF’s that about?

Lol 😀
I’ve met lots through work (university) & they’ve always been very sound people. My brother went out with one for 4 years – she was sweet but a bit mad – but then thats hardly an exclusively american trait. 😉
In fact having met people from many different countries I can honestly say people are pretty much the same whether they’re from – Some are cocks, some are genuinely nice people. Only problem I’ve ever had is with the fundamentalist types from saudi & north africa. But i won’t go into that because we’ve all been sent on “diversity training” 🙄 and I am no longer allowed to have an opinion on such matter as religously inspired bigotry and discrimination.
August 4, 2006 at 1:14 pm #31453DreamwalkerParticipanti guess what i really mean is that the bad ones are the worst ones (Americans that is), they go around driving huge trucks and think they can kick everyones ass because they have huge trucks, or because they’re Americans. their idea of living life is “lets get rich as possible as soon as possible” and stive for that no matter what, the people who are rich are very aware of it and the people who arent try to act like it. thats probably true everywhere but since i’ve only lived in america i wouldnt know. anyway, iu think its kinda silly about us debating over who’s country is stupider(i know thats not a real word, its a joke).
August 4, 2006 at 1:20 pm #31454RonathonParticipant[Wipers] Yep that’s right, they can moan/bitch/complain and flout our laws as much as they want, but as soon as you question this you’re a racist or a bigot.
Still back to the Yanks, personally I’ve only spoken to few, but most seemed ok. One thing I did notice when I was in US/Canada though was that it’s a bit insular news wise, unlike our news which tends to be a bit more informative on a global basis.
August 4, 2006 at 1:22 pm #31455DreamwalkerParticipantmedia sucks, bottom line.

Wisdom Words of the Week from Wipers !
Back to the main clip of the ‘idiotic Americans’, still doesn’t rival the day at work when a colleague asked me about back in SA, and very honestly: ” Have you been attacked by Lions ? “
Huh ??
“I saw this nature program where they are shown roaming wild, how do we stop them from attacking us in our towns ?”August 4, 2006 at 7:14 pm #31459Captain_ChronicParticipantI told one of the women at work that James bunt’s song “your Beautifull” was written about Myra Hindley , and she went around telling all her friends about this interesting fact . 😆
