haha, i've just been looking about lithuanians and found this one

I would say that we don't say "eh?" a lot but I'm pretty sure we do. :blank:

I think we still appear as cold people too much...and we are correct and polite

some years ago there was this guy at the train station...he was from france and he sat ext to me and started talking to me...I was really friendly to him although I felt a bit awkward...he told me that I seem to be pretty nice and that he had the impression that germans seem to be rather cold...because they always want to sit alone in trains for example...but now that I think of this it might not only be a german thing...I don't know hm

I don't see the stereotype that we're all really nice and polite as very accurate, either.

Yossarian is - unsurprisingly I'm sure - what is called in these parts a true individual, a free spirit. Every time Yossarian is chatting up a lady she is utterly seduced and is all "I've never met anyone like you", and expects Yossarian to sleep with her just for that, but Yossarian doesn't take it as a compliment because there isn't anyone like him.

People think you have bad teeth, and are really smart and sophisticated it seems to me.

 

And they think you're sexy because of your accents. :thinking:

My teeth are good,must be my American side!,oh and we always play villians in American films:laugh3:

Arrogant,rude,drunk,tea drinking,loud,shouty um other English stereotypes please?:laugh3:

you forgot to mention lazy :D

they have a very special love for germans...at least that's our stereotype:wacky:

 

Personally every German I've met I've really liked and found really polite and welcoming, so I have a special love for you anyway:)

I'm Asian, therefore I am rude, anti-social and cheap.

hehe thanks:)

 

I can't say anything bad about you guys as well....people in London were very welcoming as well....but I think that german and british media are still rather picking on each other....well, shit newspapers like Bild and daily mail I think...

I do! :cheesy:

I've met one german who was very kind and generous and talkative, so I guess I can't tell anything bad about them, except that exaggerated saving :laugh3:

I bet you have red hair and freckles :wacky:

 

 

 

 

freckles? yes

Red Hair? used to :cheesy: but not ginger.

 

I AIN'T NO GINGANUT BIZCUIT :blank:

 

 

 

 

 

I do like ginger hair though.

hehe thanks:)

In the UK (certainly to a far greater extent than other European countries I've visited, though maybe its a cultural thing that only becomes clear after a great deal of exposure) theres a HUGE difference in the quality of our newspapers and whom they're targetting, to the extent that you can actually tell a great deal about someone just from their choice in newspaper.

 

Daily Mail / Daily Express - Age 40-80, loves racism, the royal family, The Who and Abba, hates recreational drug use and immigrants (legal, obviously, but try telling them that) and asylum seekers living in houses that cost more than 150k (ie, almost every house). Voted Conservative if they're slightly left-leaning, UKIP if they're not.

 

The Sun / The Star - Age 15-90, loves racism, football and the Kings of Leon, cannot understand polysyllabic words. Main features include AWESOME PUNS in the headlines and breasts on the third page, every day, without exception. Voted Conservative.

 

The Observer / The Guardian - Age 20-30, has a subscription to The New Internationalist, probably lives in Brighton and voted for The Green Party or lives in London and voted Lib Dems. Listens to obscure indie no one has ever heard of. Went to university and has a useless degree in Philosophy / Theology / Art History (delete as appropriate).

 

I really could go on and on and on...
