Thats the problem, those people that aren't like that very rarely speak up, so the only ones you ever hear are the 'we're better than everyone else' so people just take it that most of them must be like that.
Let me be the first to congratulate you on witnessing pure perfection!
As a matter of fact, I have and they where just as described. Some Americans are just plain stupid. They asked questions like, 'Do you have a pet kangaroo?' and 'Do you have a tv?'

Ya many Americans are like that but mainly because they're either stereotypical or there just plain ignorant but say an American visits that country and learns more about it they would know not to ask stupid questions, oh and some Americans just ask stupid questions because they just want act like jackasses.
Favorite Games: 1. Gears of War (Best Game Ever!!!) 2. Final Fantasy Series (FF7 forever) 3. F.E.A.R. Series (Very Creepy and Good) 4. Guitar Hero 1,2,&3 (Less Talk More Rokk by FreezePop...rock on!) 5. Rachet and Clank Series (Favorite Lombax and little robot duo) 6. Call of Duty Series (Take Cover and Kick Some @$$!!!)
14, 15 and 16. I'm 15 and I'm not completely ignorant about the rest of the world. And before you say it, they weren't joking they were asking me a serious question and seemed suprised at the answer.

its because many of our political veiws i dont know how we justify us having the most nukes in the world and when another country even thinks about building one we barge right and destroy the country's economy and imagine what it will be like 20 years later they will be like vietnam 20 yeas after we helped them imagine the fact that we arent helping these guys. my dads friend goes to vietnam to help people and there is a family 9 kids a mom a dad and a grandma the dad suports the whole family he doesnt make enough and they live off a loaf of bread and some rice maybe two pounds for a week and there are whole towns just like that and your surprised the world doesnt dont praise us
It could be many things that make people "hate" america. It could be the way the government is run, the president, our (I'm sorry to say it but it's true) stupidity, the amount of crimes, and the way people handle everyday life. I mean we can't even let kids and animals outside without the worry that some... gang member, depressed not giving a **** , not paying attention, phyco maniac, or so on person is going to hit them, shoot them, stab ect. IT'S REDICULAS. But I say say that nomatter what we do there will always be someone who hates america.
How about you guys start explaining how the president is stupid? And don't just say he started a war or anything short of a full argument backed with reasoning and references; I'd like to see anybody other than Arsonist come up with anything even remotely rational about why the war wasn't justified to the extent that you all assume everybody would agree with you when you call the governing body of a powerful nation incompetent.
As far as opinions go, I'm not going to let them slip anymore; if you want people to care what you think, start improving your post quality.
Now why in the world would you post something this ignorant straight after I warn you guys? Post deleted; not that you should know better - I don't expect you to - but don't be dumb enough to post something stupid right after me, it's too obvious.
I'm closing this if I get another crap response...
Well, well now, I smell a prime slab of FLAME BAIT here! But, I'm above flamin', I don't really give a load bout what other think, good or otherwise. Yes, I'll agree SOME Americans are like this; but look at tha common man. We don't look upon other that way, I personally like other cultures to a certain extent. Now I draw tha line when its stuff like harsh punisments or obscene customs, etc. We are no better than anyone else, its just people like ^^THIS^^ that give us a bad rep. I'll agree, some things we do are bad, but overall we're not that bad. Hell, look at places like Iraq, goin' around and blowin' people up in car bombs, and countries that claim to have weapons of mass destruction. Its obvious that only all of tha BAD stuff about us reaches other countries' shores. What, do you people have jokes about us just like there are black jokes and jew jokes etc.? I'm no bad person, in fact, most of us are decent, respectable people if ya'd just give us a breathin' chance, but no, you have to go off asumein' that we're all fat, evil, disgustin' slobs that do nothin' but cause crime and pollut tha Earth.
P.S. I DO take offence to this. And for tha record tha quoted above post was made by Fusion_Blastoise.

Way to bring up an old crappy post that had no significance what so ever, attempt to debunk it and utterly fail.
I would delete your post, but I'm going to leave it here.
I'll close the entire thread instead.
Pro-tip: you don't get offended here, not ever, especially if its inaccurate/generalisation/assumption. If you do you're a whiny little kid that's making my D&D look horrible.
