Since I'm American, I'm going to tell you that an American is a person who lives in America. You can't say that 300,000,000 people (and counting) are all fat, ignorant, car-obsessed, self-obsessed slobs. There are some people like that, yes, but those people are usually either given a poorly-rated "reality" show or have the shit kicked out of them.
Me: So which presidential candidate do you think will do the best job?
Some idiot: Well, I'm not registered to vote so I don't really care and I don't know the issues.
Me: Maybe you should go on the "Flavor of Love"!
Me: Hey! Let's ride around town in a shopping cart!
My Friend: Yeah! That sounds fun!
Stereotype: Well, you guys have fun. I'm too fat to fit in a shopping cart and too lazy to push one. I'm going to find a Big Mac and maybe piss off some people on the internet so they'll hate Americans.
Me: ...Dude...

Get the americans mug.Seriously, people of non-american heritage we're not all like that. Many of us actually hate our president and wish he'd walk into oncoming traffic. WE also believe that this war with Iraq is pointless and want to put a stop to it. Also, most of the people I grew up with only ate shitty McDonald's because our parents were too poor to buy both good food AND the drugs of their choice. I hope someday that American POLITICS and some whacked-out-crazy assholes will realize that America isn't the best country in the world. Someday, I'll leave America to travel to the most beautiful and interesting countries and I hope that I won't be hated (or loved, eek!) for being American.
non-american: Stupid Americans!
me: W-why? *commence sadness and possible crying* Why can't we all just get along!
Eek! Don't hate me! I'm nice, really! I like kitties... and skittles.... I always try to remember to turn off the lights when I'm not using it and I hate littering and... um, DON'T HATE ME!!! Please.

Get the americans mug.People from America that are generally well-liked, easy going, and sometimes crazy (in a good way). Americans have the large scale on personality due to its diversity of culture and race in its population. On one hand, you have gays and lesbians participating in a gay pride parade, on the other, gays are being killed by others upon discovering their orientation. On one hand, you have "prides" (Black Pride), on the other, you have extreme-ists (KKK). One one hand, you have amazing college professors, on the other, you have the fat american kid that doesn't know shit.
Stereotypes:
-Americans are fat; Yeah, some are really fatasses, but many are really fit.
-American kids are rich and spoiled; Yeah, those that are expats in international schools and those in public schools can be real brats. But you probably are too, if you're encountering them and not the better ones.
-Americans are racist; Yeah, those trolls you see online, that white kid that picks on minorities, etc really need to be ball-smacked. But those are usually ignorant people from ages 10-25. Young, stupid, unsophisticated.
In general, they're pretty nice people. Respectable and reasonable, only a small percentage of the American population are douchebags.
This is not written by an american.

You racist shitfuckers at my school deserve to be castrated.
I should have given that Americans who found my wallet my week's pay.

1) not all of us our egotistical jerks
2)were not all fat...many of the people I know are painfully thin.
3)I think that the reason people see americans as fat, stupid, rich, and totally impolite is becuase they met my brother.

Get the Americans mug.Just bought a £5 quick shop from my convenience store, an American was stood behind me. Based on true experience with Americans.
Checkout Clerk: Sorry, your Credit Card has been rejected.
Me:(Searching pockets, wallet, don't find any cash.) Well, I don't have any more cash on me.
American: Don't worry about it, I'll pay for ya'!

Get the Americans mug.Citizens who live inside a big bubble between Canada and Mexico.
Americans makes up less than 5% of the worlds population yet 95% of the worlds ignorance and arrogance.
Traits and habits-
Calling themselves the only Americans despite the fact that ALL people living on the CONTINENT of America are Americans.
Calling things by their brand names rather than the name of the actual object or item.
Putting their country first in every online list despite the fact the United States starts with a U and the lists are in alphabetical order.
Putting an American flag next to 'English' for language selection incase they forget what language they speak.
Making fun of the metric system, despite the fact that they are one of only three countries who are yet to start using it. The rest of the world has been using it for over 50 years.
Killing each other is also a favourite pastime. More Americans are murdered by other Americans every year than all the American casualties of every war the world has ever seen. Pretty sad statistic.
Not all Americans are fat and stupid, and not all the world are anti-American. We just dont like arrogant ignorant idiots. It just so happens that The United States is always represented by arrogant ignorant idiots.
All the Americans who give a thumbs up are the exception to the rule who can actually think for themselves and can hopefully start representing their country in a better light.
