Oh, aren't YOU the cool one, SS! What a marvelous idea, let's
stereotype everyone. Apparently you have met every U. S. citizen
to come to your conclusion that we are all tossers. That's strange,
I don't recall meeting you. You just keep marching backwards there, SS.
Pretty soon you'll find yourself just where you belong; somewhere
in time before civilization began.

...but back to business!
As a young American who has traveled abroad twice in the last three
years, I have to admit that although the United States is one of the
many lands of the free, its people when found traveling abroad are
more often than not utterly revolting. I have never been so
embarrassed to be an American as I have been when visiting Europe.
Personal anecdotes aside, my ability to speak the native tongue there
allowed me to put some space between myself and my English-only
speaking countrymen; as a result, my eyes were opened to the reasons
why Europeans and other countries around the world have such a
negative outlook on us. Frankly, I don't blame them. Our attitudes
are abhorrant when it comes to expecting others in countries we visit
to speak English to us (to the point of cursing and making a huge
scene) to international policy making and curriculum design in the
schools (isn't there anything else to study in history than American
History to 1945?!). Americans force their ideas, culture, and
language upon the rest of the world with their dollars in financial
aid, loans, and via the typical American tourist who needs to have
his/her hotel room with a bathroom in it just like the Holiday Inn
does and not down the hallway like the visiting country's hotels do.
And how do we accommodate visiting foreigners? What are the chances
of them even finding someone to speak their language or a travel
brochure in their language to learn more about a site or exhibit?
French and English are the official languages of the 1996 Olympics in
Atlanta--and that is because the Olympic Committee is INTERNATIONALLY
based; had it not been, I have no doubt English would have been the
only tongue of choice...and I can hear the typical American saying,
"If they want to come to our olympics, they'd BETTER speak English!"
It's a sad, sad situation. I often wonder why we don't have a sign at
our borders with the following message (author unknown):
"Welcome to the United States.
We don't speak your language."
As I wait to hear whether I will be able to work abroad for a year,
learning not only about another people, their history, their culture,
I look forward to hearing more positive things about Americans and our
country as a whole; somehow, I bet history will repeat itself (as it
so often does) and I will once again find myself withdrawing into the
other culture's language, hoping no one will associate me with the
loud, overbearing, know-it-all Americans.

All right, I'll buy that there are plenty of "ugly Americans" infesting
Europe and elsewhere, but I've got to laugh at how we Americans "force"
our "dollars in financial aid, loans" and even from the tourists on
all these poor "furreners" --- as if some great, big cargo ships just
dumps these greenbacks on the wharves of third-world countries, and
our imperialistic, running-dog-lackeys-of-the-military-industrial-
complex bankers infiltrate the borders of far-away lands and coerce
the natives into taking out otherwise unsolicited-for loans.

After a fashion perhaps. They actually grunt a simplified version,
casting aside the beauty and finesse to concentrate on the bare-bones
rough gutteral snorts, capable of expressing whatever mishapen idea
their flimsy ganglion attempt to rationalise. Of course this
bastardisation of our mother tongue is used almost solely to order

They may think that, but I'd doubt they could manage to express their
feelings in anyway other than monkey-like screaches and the acts of
violence for which they have become famous.
In fact, since anyone able to declare themselves over 15 is allowed
any weapon of destruction they see fit as a penis substitute
(including the "females"), it's hardly surprising (though not
unwelcome) that they appear to enjoy killing each other with such
alarming regularity.
>And please explain how an American in the UK would manage to avoid a

It's well known that the holding pens we herd the beasts into before
sourcing supertankers with hulls sufficiently strengthened to
withstand the enormous forces of four or five yanks, have no comforts
at all, in an effort to disuade these monsters from returning to
blight our shores. The only upside to these having these wandering
simpletons marauding through our streets is their inherent stupidity
making them incredibly easy to fool into handing over all their stupid
"dollars" for trite souvenirs. Try it yourself, if you can stand the
stench and hoards of flies swarming around their sweating frames, pick
up a rock and offer it for 20 dollars. You will undoubtably recieve
50 dollars or more - a benefit of their lack of education, accompanied
by their attempts to communicate:
"Gee, that looks just swell! Real English rock huh? Wow!".
At this point it's best to take their money and leave the fools in
their stupor.
>Alexis, you're full of shit, and you make me ashamed to be English.
Well thank you Marcus. As always, I will give your opinion the respect
it deserves. After all, it may come in useful the next time I feel the

Do you know of the term IKYABWAI? Trust a stupid yank to write one.
Here, i'll try to explain for you (keeping the words short of course):
(Actually, this is the first IKYABWAI by proxy i've ever seen...)
1) I wrote something about another poster.
2) Beth, stuck for something to say (but posting on regardless) jumps

3) Beth looks stupid. Even alongside the average yank.

Hardly. The nearest I've come to sticking my head in shit was reading

Thanks for the advice. I have no doubt that cleaning and polishing

You might consider that those of us that have left it for travel

country, as well as the other cultures we have dealt with.

"Brain" Catlin - clued up as ever, decided to repost an entire article
to add his steaming turd to the end. Not only that, but the fool could
offer little other than 2 cliches so tired I wouldn't be surprised if
they didn't demand free bus passes to make another appearance. "You
don't have a clue" and "Get a life" are the last bastions of the
creatively bankrupt. In fact, those who advise others to "Get a life"
are more often than not totally devoid of one themselves.
Perhaps "Brain" should examine the "mysteries of education" before
posting his tripe again...

Yes, and we force a fat little yank to perch on the top for the
duration of the Christmas holiday. It's a well known fact that 92%
of american males are in fact gay, or "fairys". No doubt this can
be partly attributed to the disgusting creatures deemed female, if
only for the reason they posess slightly smaller penises than the
"males".
The "Golden girls" are an example of the average american woman -
scary eh?

Perhaps if my IQ fell below 50 I might be able to enjoy every aspect
of american way of life. The only benefit I can envisage for wearing
bermuda shorts and flip-flops is that the average yank can proclaim
his/her lack of style,lack of diet and lack of sense without the need
for vocalisation.

Then at least he wasn't responsible for the alphabetic comprising the
text to your sorry articles. BTW, do you often have this type of
halucination whilst watching your VDU? Being a yank, with the most
mercinary and corrupt legal system on earth, i'd guess you could try
and sue the poor sap who sold you the monitor. After all there have
been documented cases of:
a) A young girl suing her mother because she tripped over the vacuum
cleaner.
b) A boys family suing a vending machine company because their stupid
son rocked the machnie till it fell and crushed him.
c) OJ Simpleton literally getting away with murder and creating
another fortune for himself in the process.

Don't attempt to appologise for me, dopy. To be honest, I couldn't

The sad thing is that they weren't trying to be funny, they just can't
help causing more mirth with every clumsy slap of their much abused
keyboards. Their continuing battle against evolution is fascinating,
and watching it's effects from a hygeinic distance merely adds to the
enjoyment.

Damn you! I was saving that for later. Never mind, he'll probably

Dave,
Thanks for the great post. The world needs more people like you.
Whenever someone makes negative comments about a whole country or race,
all they are doing is proving that they are either a bigot or ignorant ... or
both.
Every country has good people and bad people. If someone choses to look
for the bad ones and then claim that everyone from that country is same, they
will always be able to find a bad one to suit their purposes.
I apologize for not posting a tasteless joke :).
Peace!

I was simply attempting to prevent the baffled Beth from making a
similar gaff in future. Of course, I doubt she'll comprehend anything
I wrote - since I use English as a language, but it is my duty to try.
After all, it was our little island who taught the yanks to

is an ongoing process, and South Central LA is next on the list.

Especially when this "wisdom" is merely the almost unintelligable

The only area in which our Donald excels is supplying everyone in

own conclusions from this (obviously I didn't aim this last sentence

As far as i'm aware, there aren't that many shootings or murders
carried out at the average *football* match. I'm pleased you brought
up football though, as the yank version is hilariously bad! Is there
anything more crass than a clueless mob of atrophiated simpletons
with apparently no coordination running around untill they inevitably
end up colliding and then repeating the process, again and again? Not
only that, but whilst this spectacle enthralls it's doughnut and beer

with what seems to be a muppet on each hand. These are apparently
"cheerleaders", designed, I'd assume, to stop even the almost

Hmmmm, what did the captain of the Titanic say just before it went down?
"Be British," wasn't it?
Perhaps "Alexis" should learn to appreciate mysteries (of education or
anything else) instead of merely examining them. But that would require
slightly more warmth than that contained in the water that swallowed the
Titanic. "Alexis" appears too preoccupied with being British to stoke
those fires.

Yep. While the far superior British legal system feels the need to dress
up in wigs that went out in the 18th century, wondering what to do with to
boys who grapped a little child, beat him to death and left him to be cut
in half by a train.

Actually, if Amerika hadn't gotten involved, Hitler probably wouldn't have
been able to take power in Germany at all. Let's not forget who his biggest
supporters were before all of this nasty land-grabing started. All of that
anti-Communist, pro-Christian, economic slash-and-burn bullshit he said to
get popular support in Germany really gave you guys a serious hard on. After
all, he WAS Time Magazine's Man Of The Year TWICE. In fact, the NSDAP had
80,000 U.S. supporters before the war. The only reason why you guys even
WENT to war is because the U.S. doesn't like to play second banana to anyone.

Thanks for falling into the trap, Alexis.
Here in the U.S., the only times we hear about your "football" matches is when a
bunch of those jolly, happy-go-lucky skin heads go apeshit and start a riot.
(Much in the same manner that we only hear about your royal family when they get
caught with their knickers down.) Would you like me to believe that these types
of stories are a fair and accurate representation of your culture?
And, of course, YOU only read about OUR cities when something violent happens.
Yet you seem to be an expert on OUR culture...
>I'm pleased you brought up football though, as the yank version...
[Remainder of silly diatribe snipped]
It breaks my heart to tell you this, but I don't give a whit about football -
either your kind or our kind. So your silly blather on the subject was
completely impotent, to put it kindly.
From this, I infer that you have no military experience as you have no concept
of fire discipline. Fire discipline, in the most simple terms, is the concept
of NOT expending ammunition until you actually have a TARGET to shoot at. It
looks as if you expend the majority of yours into thin air.
Oh well. No wonder a fair number of your countrymen are making some effort to
distance themselves from you...

Well, first of all, American futbol is not all that bad. And while on
the subject, futbol in the U.K. is nothing more than a rugby match witha
a futbol and no hands, kicking the ball and running, smaking into one
another. And one more thing, the exceptional futbol is played in Italia.

My personal feelings are that we took the wrong side in the European war
completely! our only connexion to the UK was a purely emotional one (The
"Old Country" sob, sob, weep, weep) and the fact that they spoke a
a language somewhat similar to ours. If Churchill hadn't arranged for
the Lusitania to be torpedoed we'd've just ending up negotiating a treaty

The footwork is merely an attempt to keep your neurons, somehow

Reverse is it? No, forging straight ahead through your blithering. I
do not write nationality lames, period. An exercise for feebleminded
xenophobes who seldom possess the knowledge or experience to
speak convincingly about the nations they blast. You, for instance,
have never been to the United States--your crazed rants evidently
based on your observations of tourists and American television,
which I will quite happily admit is largely crap. It certainly is not
a representative view of the Americans I know. Fortunately, most
Americans do not judge Brits by the behaviour of the hapless Royal
Family.

Fraud. Humanity is not one of your virtues. And your only use for
English appears to be as a bludgeon, though it appears to be poorly
constructed and entirely plastic in composition.

Your evident ignorance of history is appalling. The first Yanks were
Brits (ignoring the Spaniards to the south) so unless you are ready
to admit that your ancestors were also dribbling brutish rapos--which
they assuredly were not, then it would be prudent for you to retract
this stupidity. But you won't. You'll simply tunnel over or under your
ignorance into a new vein of doltishness.

You're also convinced that all Americans are multi-tonned lardballs,
which can be quickly disproven. Therefore, your judgement lacks
merit--good bit of understatement, eh?

For someone who claims to use English as a language (how much

Everyone being our *charming* British friend, Alexis, an admitted

without scruples. Poor Alexis is so blinded by his xenophobia, he
fails to see that more reasonable minds on both sides of the Atlantic

a more evolved language because the use the familiar tense to speak to people
they don't know. For example they use the "Tu" in french instead of the "You"
and the "Du" in german instead of the "Sie". If you want a language of beauty
and finess look for the latin languages like french, spanish or portuguese.
I think that the British are the last people who should refer to anyone's
food as slop. They may make great beer but for fine cuisine they have
to cross the channel. As for American food, It may promote weight gain but it
sure tastes good. What I miss the most when I go to Europe are the Bacon &
Eggs breakfast.

I think it's the exposure to people who don't bathe that does them in.
The english word for something that is not good (BAD) happens to be
the German word for bath. Maybe that's why you brits are always walking

In Canada we may sometimes complain about our American neighbours but it
could be a lot worst. We could have the neighbor that the Irish have.

Man! It looks like *you* need to go back to fourth grade. You're
mixing up the two World Wars, as well as throughing in opinions as
facts.
For the record, Hirohito was emperor of Japan during WWII, and the
Lusitania was sank in 1915, during WWI, while Churchill was in the
Admirality, and before the revolutions in Russia from which the USSR was
founded.
No wonder we as Americans have a bad reputation. We can't even get the

The Lusitania was torpedoed around 1916 - 1917. The U.S. got into
WWI in 1917 and WWII in 1941. Are you sure you didn't mean that
Churchill arranged for the Japanese to bomb Pearl Harbor?

I prefer to point and shout. If they're too stupid to speak english I
simply use obscure words, laughing at their confusion. The only good

If you honestly think 2 peas and a rather sad looking sliver of veal
make for a good meal it's no wonder you also pig out on slugs, and
other vermin. Maybe your poor diet is the reason you have such oily
skin and terrible BO. Or is it the fact the average frenchman only
baths if unlucky enough to get caught in a downpour. How are the

Well, you may have gotten away with this fudge had I not typed the

Or simply prove you wrong again. You don't honestly expect me to agree

arranged for the Lusitania to be torpedoed to drag the U. S. into WWII.
I was 13 when the Japs "preempted" us with their undeclared war.

often than you get to hear about fist fights at an English Football
match.
We call the game Football because the players use their feet to
kick a ball. You lot have a game you call Football but the players
use their hands to throw an object that looks nothing at all like
a ball. Perhaps you'd like to explain the reasoning behind the
naming of your little game. Perhaps you'd also like to explain the
nature of this "trap" that you claim Alexis had fallen into.
As far as I can see your "Football" is much like our Rugby, except
our players don't have to wear bullet-proof vests and crash helmets
in order to feel safe on the pitch. Also in Rugby, the players are
trained to a standard where, when the ball is thrown, we don't have
to stop the game to regroup the team after finding that they've all
run off in random directions leaving them in no position to continue.
Also, Rugby players don't have to take regular "timeouts" to allow the
players to catch their breath and have a rest.
