You Candians should seriously milk that beaver thing. And sell it on the market. Americans would pay big bucks for authentic Canadian beaver milk.

 

 

 

And the Russians and vodka stereotype is rather true. My history teacher was in Russia on some business trip or something, I forget, but he was in a Russian school and the headmaster pulled out a bottle of vodka and offered him a drink. Not sure how much more authentic that can get, unless they drink it in church, too :lol:

 

 

 

One of the few cliches that's actually very accurate... Yes, Vodka is everywhere, especially when it comes to people over 40 years of age. Yes, they do drink even in churches.

 

 

 

Been exposed to russian culture pretty much since I was a kid, russians can really be pretty intense drunkards sometimes (fine people otherwise) :lol:

 

Can't blame them though, most russians still have it pretty bad in life (was way worse about 10-15 years ago though), plus the climate isn't very forgiving anywhere north of St. Petersburg..

 

 

 

Moscow isn't the pretty snowy wonderland the tourist pictures let you imagine either. It's ok during the summer but after autumn it's a freezing hellhole, and many average apartments don't even have warm water/heating.

Ha, country stereotypes are funny.

 

Canada: Oil, maple syrup, beavers, Eskimos, endless forests.

 

 

 

 

We've got rocks and trees, and trees and rocks, and rocks and trees, and trees and rocks, and water. -Arrogant Worms :lol:

 

 

 

 

Canada: moose-mounted beaver launcher, coated in maple syrup

 

 

 

 

You forgot the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (aka "Mounties"), endless winters and our special defense weapon the Chicken Cannon. :thumbsup:

 

 

 

Note: Today Canada is 141 yrs old.

Sorry to break it to you, but I just came back from Sweden the day before yesterday and there wasn't a single nude girl in sight. :(

 

I'm sure Dragoonson will be able to take care of that. We all know Swedish girls are daaamn good-looking, as is Dragoonson.

 

Corrected your error

 

 

 

Singaporean stereotypes:

 

All Chinese are Native from China.Wrong,my family line leads to Malaysia,and hints of America.And my brother-in-law is Canadian ^.^

 

We all have sh-- English.No dice,dude,I'm good at English,and can suck at it if I wish.That is to say,jokingly wrong.

 

We're all rude.Well I'm rude to my friends,but they're dumb enough to not know,and I'm generally polite to anyone who isn't rude to others.

Yay!

 

 

 

I think Canadian Idiot by Weird Al will clear up any confusions you have about Canadian stereotypes.(not so much with American Idiot... the song's just slightly strange)

 

 

 

 

 

 

I live in Michigan so our stereotypes probably are... well most of it's a pit, so we'll start there.

 

the Yoopers (is that how you spell it?) had a bumper sticker campaign once that said "Say Ya to Da U.P. eh!" and I love it to pieces... I guess MI doesn't have that many stereotypes except for in DETRIOT... where they have to shoot a bunch of people and have a mayor who's an idiot and should have resigned.

Hmmmm, If wine is on average 12% and represents Jesus's blood, then what would 40% Vodka represent? :-k

 

My blood. Stronger than Jesus'.

Hmm, for the most part I think Canadian stereotypes are true :lol:

 

 

 

1) I love maple syrup.

 

 

 

2) Most people here drink beer.

 

 

 

3) There's a house in Toronto that always has a moose on top of it (a fake one, don't get any ideas)

 

 

 

4) At my cottage I eat at a restaurant who's mascot is a beaver.

Lenin, Finnish stereotypes are that they're all extremely quiet, very unsocial, and dislike anyone different from them. From what I've seen, the first is true for a lot of people.

 

 

 

And the Finns weren't vikings silly.

 

 

 

Whoever said Holland did fair trading from 1400 is wrong, Holland was a very big contributor to the slave trade.
