    do you guys get offended when foreigners call americans stupid?

    how can you get upset at that if you take this forum as evidence?


    you call soccer a shit sport because there is not enough scoring

    you call the nba a shit sport because there is no defence and too much scoring

    wtf people


    the same people that were calling lebron and cavs overrated and done after they lost the no 1 seed are now calling him the greatest ever and that they will be champions

    the same people that were calling the warriors worst than last year after they lost a couple of games in the regular season are now calling them the greatest team ever and that they cant possibly lose


    same people that were calling houston an amazing team and spurs crap and finished after game 1 are now calling houston and beard losers and overrated and pop a genius and saying that if leonard wasnt hurt they would beat golden state


    and it goes on and on you could find a million similar examples every day



    seriously if this forum is a representative sample of the united states, holy penetrate

    I don't get offended because I constantly tell my foreign friends that Americans are stupid.

    Do people call you stupid because of your sad attempt in spelling the word DEFENSE

    when a French guy like this calls you a "stoopid merican", take it as a compliment:

    Nope.

    And collectively, we're not that stupid, we're actually pretty brilliant. You don't have a huge hand in creating the modern world and modern culture because you're a bunch of neanderthals. We are that rare combination of brains, balls, and creativity that nobody else has (but they're getting there, and that's good for everyone). We don't know where Bulgaria is, but we're practical, and we realize that in the end, information like that isn't useful. It's useful if you want to appear smart in front of other people from other countries, but we're not insecure like that.

    We're the height of capitalism, and that's going to breed a lot of stupid people that just never made it, and media will shine a huge spotlight on them and make other countries dumb enough to fall for it think that we're all that way. All while they read this info on their iPhones, which Americans (primarily) created.

    The real reason they shit on us is that our give-a-fukk level is so low, it drives them crazy. They spend all day calling us names, and we're just over here like "And.....who are you again? Never mind, I was just kidding, I don't really care, LOL"

    I agree Ralphie, collectively, maybe not so bad.

    But a small minority of intelligent people score so high that it brings the average up.

    If we judged the scale with medians, I think the story would be a bit less optimistic.

    No. Foreigners are very quick to shit on American exceptionalism anyway, often times because of their morphed sense of what is relevant to us as portrayed by the media and liberal controlled news. Like most facets of life, there are amazing and horrible things about most cultures, it's just which of them you choose yourself to focus on. If you listen to the mainstream media and celebrities of this country, how could you not walk away thinking we are all morons? Fortunately, they all collectively make up less than .0001% of the country. They just so happen to do 90% of the talking/image projecting for us as it appears to "foreigners."

    Americans are definitely not stupid, but many are ignorant and
    anti-intellectual. Anti-intellectualism is an historical American trait
    we can all admire, after all, who messed up this place and the world,
    but the think-tanks and complicators ?

    I'd guess that on average, Americans are pretty dumb. So no, I don't get mad at the truth.

    Snowball is right as usual.

    There is stupidity in every nation but it takes a different shape and kind.
    Speaking of some socialist countries - people there have read classic literature and appear to be smart - but fail to realize if noone pays taxes - roads arent going to build themselves for instance.

    Heard a cool joke that fits this thread
    - what would happen if all drunks move from russia to the usa?
    - IQ of both countries would go up

    Gotta agree with that. It's funny, when you would think of "intellectuals" back when you were growing up, you pictured really smart people doing and making great things. Then you grow up just to see it's just a bunch of elitists who like to put crowns on their own heads and walk around with them.

    do I get insulted when people with a much lower IQ than my country call us stupid? No, I find it hilarious actually.

    It's extra comical when it's a European lol

    I have gotten to the point in my life where it's difficult to offend me, but I can still offend libtards and conservatives...

    Watch...fukk the troops...they can all die for all I care, killin' babies and shit.... Baby killers (conservatives triggered).

    Hey libtards...Abortion is glorified baby-killing and if you had an abortion, you killed a baby. There.

    Both retarded sides (the left and the right have both been offended) are both wrong on both issues (conservatives wanna go to war with every country and give more resources to Israel) and libtards are too stupid to realize that Obama was just as corrupt and war hungry as Trump's administration, but the media didn't report all the corrupt shiznit that Oblackass did in all the same Middle Eastern countries that Trump banned Muslims from (like bomb them and stuff).

    Have a nice day everyone. The earth is still a flat, spiritual realm and we are all still Gods, but most of you are too stupid to know it. Stay positive, fukk hos, get money, and be whole and balanced.

    They are soccer players. Nobody ever accused members of that "brotherhood " for being Einstein's descendants, being Germans, Chinese or Aliens. Hitting a wet soccer ball with your forehead for the better part of your developing years doesn't help either. Plus Mueller is a german redneck anyway.

    well tell those foreigners that they need to brush up on their US and World history...the only and true "Americans" were the native Indians (as Columbus called them) who were already here and indigenous to this land...every single one of our ancestors came over from the Old countries...German, Dutch, Greek, French, Italian, Jews, Spanish, English, etc, etc!...so in essence, after 400+ years of breeding and assimilation, you can basically call us Americans domesticated Europeans!...

    the USA looks like a giant stomach anyway - the most a stomach can think of is whether a bigmac or taco should be a next meal

    Ignorant with regards to some areas. I have some friends who work immigration at the US/CAD border and they'll occasionally get Americans from the south driving to Toronto in the summer with winter coats and parkas packed in 90 degree weather. I've come across some in Vegas in the summer who asked me how freezing it is in Canada at the moment. I know not all are that stupid, though. I deal with a lot of stupid Canadians everyday, too.
