    Americans really are not stupid though I'm a Filipino. Most of us here have been aspiring to work their to earn more money... And what do you call a country helping other country? Stupid? Well I guess you are wrong if you think so! :D

    Those are just people's opinions. Everyone has the freedom of speech in America so they can say actually say that :p. I mean look at our president, watch some of his speeches, he sounds more like a comedian than a president.
    Just my 2 cents.

    I'm not sure because I don't watch that show anyways but obviously, it was in our headlines for a couple of days.

    I think it was the Main character among the girls who said that discriminating line

    These were the lines that were shown on that particular episode.

    Dr. Mayfair: "I know for a lot of women, the word ‘menopause' has negative connotations. The heart aging, brittle bones, loss of sexual desire...."

    Susan Mayer: "Before we go any further, can I check those diplomas? ‘Coz I would just like to make sure that they're not from some med school in the Philippines."

    Anyone who has replied to this post, and even the original poster:

    What makes you think you can speak for an entire nation? Out of all of you, who here has a degree in anthropology? Anyone?

    The top 5 countries with highest IQ estimate are all in Asia. Hong Kong (a province of China) is listed as number one, and if any Americans are unaware, the University of Hong Kong is highly prestigious and competitive internationally.

    America is 23rd, right before Canada. So all of North America is of normal intelligence. :(

    I'd also like to mention, tho I was born in Canada, my parents are from Hong Kong and Asia. :D

    Fugura bosto de peire sumo booya la kaaabu aaahh como esta mui bien lalalalala

    All these views are getting your signature links a lot of clicks, aren't they?

    Exactly. I'm Asian yet I barely passed through high school; I even dropped out of college! But then I started doing business online and got filthy rich but that's beside the point ;)

    What's important is that it's all about shock value for most people as I've already said. Americans are not stupid; neither is any other group or race.

    Nicely spotted. I've never seen that before. Maybe because it links to another forum?

    To the op: learn some punctuation and then give lectures on stupidity. And it's the United States of America, not America.
    God bless all the countries! LOL

    When I say Americans are stupid, I'm not talking about the elite few who create things, but the many sheeple, who do things because they're popular. I am talking about people who hear someone say something and either do not bother to figure out if these things that are said are true or not notice. I am talking about people who refuse to try new things and people who say that America is the best country just because someone else said it was so. Dumb Americans are people who cannot appreciate other cultures but with their thick skulls refuse to and watch FOX news and say to themselves "every other country is wrong except for America."

    Heh i have alot of smart friends in US

    i think calling a whole nation dumb just because of a few idiots (@ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj3iNxZ8Dww ) and nutcases ( @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijz1CdUj5fg ) is wrong and stereotypical



    but in general one cant help to get the feeling that the whole country is being herded like sheep before slaughter


    sorry but people in US in general do need to wake up, your standing and respect in the world has gone down conciderably

    i wish yee best of luck in future as im an optimist, suppose things cant get any worse for the US and its people at this stage?

    Well said. While a lot of Americans are really smart and have already recognized the problem, many still think the Bush administration and its "billion-dollar-a-week, kill-brown-people habit" (as said by Brother Ali) are actually good for their country.

    Bless you all.

    You have honestly proved to me your stupidity. You seem as if you have the experience of a 12 year old.
    So you do business with a couple Americans eh? Would that be just on the internet? Tell me, have you been to the United States?

    I will make sure I have a nice day and gey over it :rolleyes:
