Americans are educated

[Seppo]

Check out this video. They probably interviewed like thousands of people and just picked the ones who didn't know the correct answer. Or not. How the hell should I know?! Judge it by yourselves

The triangle thing was quite funny

 

[Sebastian]

They probably showed only the wrong answers. But a good vid none the less.

 

[The Monkey]

Been posted before. Many times.

 

[Seppo]

Oh well it's still quite fun

 

[The Monkey]

They skipped the part about Kyrgyzstan.

It's included at the end of this video.

There's also a section where he convinces people he's the Prime Minister of Australia.

 

[Baal]

Probably, but come on. I LOL'd hard at the part with Australia. Looks like Australia is everything from France, Iran, North Korea etc. LOL. " I just realized something, Noth Korea is a lot bigger than South Korea"

"-Who is Fidel Castro?"
"-Umm, a singer?"

Oh and another personal favorite:" -How many world wars have there been?
- Aaa... Three?"

You're asking about a specific place within a Country, that's not fair.

And the imperial system is bad so who the hell cares.

*Hi5's Baal*

It's an up high five not a hi how you doin' five! :naughty:

But seriously, is there any better decision Canada has made than not participating in the Iraq war?

 

[Remus]

make them convert metric to standard...

You mean from standard to feet, cause as far as I know the metric system is standard in a shit load of countries.

There's stupid people everywhere.

You got that right.


Also "What is the United Kingdom" gold LOL

It's just really annoying that for reason it's the world's joke that all american's are stupid, AND that people find something that is clearly edited with a huge bias (and possibly setup even) funny.

A triangle has 8 sides, and we're fighting world war 7. Did you laugh when I said it? Did you laugh when the people on tv said it?

This kinda stuff just gets really old....I had people in NY asking me how I kept my KKK hat so straight, and when my clan meetings were. ha ha...yea those jokes get better every time!

But other countires are labeled with stereotypical images too. For example, all swedes are homosexuals. All oriental people have huge teeth and eat only rice. Germans have no sense of humour and they're all nazis. All frenchies are gay, wear berets and have a moustache. See? All these stereotypes are also old as **** and no one cares anymore, but still people make jokes about it. I bet you too have laughed at these jokes at some point.

 

[ktimekiller]

funny stuff

 

[Krynn72]

You mean from standard to feet

?? Does not compute.

 

[The Monkey]

?? Does not compute.

He means standard to imperial.

The metric system is standard in every country in the world except for Liberia, Myanmar and the US.

 

[Raziaar]

Smart Americans wouldn't make for good TV, so nobody ever shows them.

 

[Absinthe]

Anybody who might take this kind of thing remotely serious needs to sit back, take a deep breath, and remember...

It's comedy.

This is the world of comedic stereotypes we live in.

The Germans are inhumanly efficient machines.
The French are pussies.
The Americans are stupid.
The British are tight-asses.

Just laugh and move on. Don't waste a second thought on it.

 

[Raziaar]

The British are tight-asses.

Never heard of that one. The biggest british stereotype is that most of them have horrible teeth.

How many people here from the UK have horrible teeth?

 

[Remus]

Never heard of that one. The biggest british stereotype is that most of them have horrible teeth.

Well actually east Europeans have horrible teeth. *Looks in mirror* The horror!

 

[The Monkey]

Well actually east Europeans have horrible teeth. *Looks in mirror* The horror!

Nah, eastern Europeans are big, strong, have beards, drink Vodka and work in coal mines or steel factories. Your women have beards too. In your countries it's always autumn, everything is gray and the air is full of smoke.

 

[AntiAnto]

Irish don't tan and are always drunk.

On topic, what a bunch of stupid asses...
