Stereotypical Dumb/Stupid Americans

Back


READ ME: If you want to know why there's a 'dumb American' stereotype here's why. An excerpt from the Chaser's War On Everything in Australia.

And to everyone watching (especially some of you touchy US folk), this is a COMEDY show. Their intention is to select the idiotic responses - just like what would happen on something like Letterman or Leno. It's not a show aimed at giving people an insight into Americans, it's a show which people watch to laugh at.

Why is it funny? Because it reinforces a stereotype (read: STEREOTYPE) that Americans are dumb, and although stereotypes are almost never completely true, they are often exaggerations of the truth, as can be seen.

I sure hope that people don't think that ALL U.S. people are this dumb - that'd be as ignorant a belief as the people in this clip. This clip is really just funny because of the ignorance of the people in it; it'd be the same if they were Australians, British, or Indian - stupid people are entertaining!

I'm so dumb I can't even formulate a coherent message, let alone spell it so it's legible to anyone except my stupid fat ass.

Even though I'm American, I can take a joke, I'm not one of those people in America that dead-serious that don't know how to laugh.
