Some Europeans are mean.

[Xiphon]

Everywhere I look online, I see European people being mean to Americans and making fun of them. They call Americans stupid, fat, and lazy, and I am tired of this.
Any opinions on this issue?

[Ifreann]

Yes, some of us are. And?

Its ok, I call Europeans weird, effeminate, bitter, and delusional to make up for it.

[The Humanist Federation]

An asshole is an asshole from Paris to Timbuktu.

[Vousielle]

But we are stupid, fat and lazy!

[The UK in Exile]

Yes, some of us are. And?

and the rest of them aren't pulling their weight.

[Vousielle]

But we are stupid, fat and lazy!

At least I am.

Then perhaps we can get Americans to stop calling Europeans lazy socialists with bad teeth, low hygiene and hairy women.

[Retro Lyra]

Grow a thicker skin and get over it. It's the internet. Did you expect sunshine and rainbows?

If Americans wouldn't continually give them so much ammunition they'd probably stop.

Or something. Whatever.

This is really just the modern equivalent of the old-school "in before the lock" that was banned way back when.

[New Sapienta]

Do bears shit in the woods?

Of course some Europeans are assholes, so are some Americans and every other demographic you can think of.

[Sovietta]

^This

We eat junk too.

[Kaikohe]

Some americans are mean, some asians are mean. There are mean people all around the world.

[Capitolinium]

It's hard for Europe to be in the position of an aged matron who clings to her faded youth by wearing too much perfume and makeup.

[Pravengria]

Sorry best reply I've read. Anyways, what's wrong with us having a view of Americans? I wouldn't say lay or stupid but I do despise your guys' government. I've met nice Americans and shitty ones. There's just shitty people lol

And sleeping with younger men.

[Damogran]

Some Europeans are mean. Some North Americans are mean. Some South Americans are mean. Some Asians are mean. Some Australians are mean. Some Africans are mean. There are probably some penguins in Antarctica that are more aggressive than others.

The point is, there are rude people everywhere.

And as for the American stereotype being that we're all stupid, fat, and lazy, is that our fault or theirs?

no excuses. if your from a nation thats too polite to be mean to foreigners, find someone from your own nation and be mean to them.

if your too polite for that, go to a zoo and flip off some monkeys.

There are no mean people from Antarctica. True fact.

Meh...we Argies are worse. Most politically incorrect species you'll ever find.

On the plus side, it means we can get really drunk at Christmas without anybody saying anything.

The kind of young man who sleeps with octegenarian cripples? Yech.

[Sidhae]

Of course we are mean, because poking fun at Americans helps distract ourselves from our own obvious flaws.

---

So, to sum it up:

European stereotype of Americans - fat, lazy, ignorant and arrogant jingoistic bible-thumpers who don't believe in evolution and see it as their God-given mission to spread "freedom and democracy" worldwide.

American stereotype of Europeans - smug wine-drinking cheese-eating over-cultured godless pinko liberals who live in a single federal state of Europe akin to USA and seem to forget that without Americans they all would be speaking German.

Mostly true if you look at the general state of things, though I'd hardly agree that Europe is more liberal than the US.

I'm an American, but I agree with your opinion.
