i dont know man! im wasted. i was just saying america is portrayed as something its probably not over here just as uk is portrayed as business men with bad teethe and all thats hit etc the stereotypes go on! |

"i think you are missing the whole fact that it is not a parody. at least not as far as i can tell." Of course its a parady. This is my point exactly. You WANT to believe its real because it is another dig on the old U S of A! Fuck we are all mental! What culture isnt? but please do not think the actions of our goverment or the drivel of our popular culture as being emblematic of the people as a whole. Who here isnt outside the mainstream of their respective culture/government? |

sure the usa has a culture. as it was already pointed out. jazz may have been made by african immigrants / slave, but by africans IN AMERICA. and it wouldnt have been possible anywhere else. then there's the whole lifestyle "american dream" / individuality thing. claiming america had no culture is just plain stupid. |

thats what i wa strying to say! also i think the problem is the whole comedy thing. like we use irony and sarcasm alot and alot of americans do to but it just doesnt translate very well and the video did seem very serious i couldnt tell the sarcasm. its complex lets just all huga nd go smoke a big fatty bum batty on the tube to camden! |

sir, i think you are overestimating the average american people. especially the christians. what makes you think its a parody? i hope you are joking. this is the singers website what makes you think its not a serious thing? |
||||||||

but it's something that distinguishes american culture. wheter the american dream may be a healthy ideal or not. by the way, i'm drunk and i dont wanna discuss and i'm not sure if i'm speaking correct english, fuck u all. |

I heard that! Let's let weed be the universal ambassador to all cultures! Im off to poop and dinner where I will doubtlessly indulge in too many cocktail, become my old beligerant self and log on and insult some more folks here. I am american after all. Our rudeness is legendary as is our fine Kentucky home-grown. Jah rastafari! |

"but please do not think the actions of our goverment or the drivel of our popular culture as being emblematic of the people as a whole" I think you'll find no one is doing that here. I have plenty of american relatives, friends etc....i love chris ware, old school hip hop, nina simone, alice coltrane, plenty of american film directors, the list is endless...i even have a pair of shoes with the name of a cleveland basketball player on! (shame on me btw) |

lol i get ya man ive had a few 2 ! its all good ! but i dont think people deny america has culture of course it does but the majority of its culture is built on the foundations of much olde3r cultures that never get such recognition and thats peoples beef. i think |

I'm not american btw. Where did you get that idea from? |

i think it's te big, bold american tourists who give America a bad name too. especially with comments such as: "england? is that somewhere near london" or anything other such " |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that was good, it cut out half my post... ...or anything other such "(country)? is that somewhere near (capital)?" statement |

i have no bad feelings towards americans my only gripe is never anything against individuals (bush not included as he is a fuking being form hell itself lol) but when americans say they are irish is very silly! no offence but seriously irish ancestory doesnt make u irish! love to the american brother sim off tow atch american films! |

hm, yeah. that might be a point. the american constitution was developed by french and english philosophers. the music is a result of different cultures' musics merging. but then again there's something unique about american culture in the whole. whatever. |

"but then again there's something unique about american culture in the whole. whatever." Of course there is, it's inevitable. |

I can see this Irish american is going to have to hurry up and get drunk in order to compete further in this thread. Cheers! |

it was almost the exact same conversation.. I remember actively screaming in that one. |
||||||||
|

|

We're no longer screaming. We're drinking and smoking weed raving about what great chaps we all really are. |

oh good. |

nah- I prefer a good argument, but most Europeans are too elitist about Americans to actually consider a yank has somthing to say. and the weed and vodka has finally subduded my coffee high of earlier today. |

Stop it! I can't even be bothered to give you examples as to why you are being paranoid again. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
typical American paranoia. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sorry. Being an American, I find it exceedingly difficult to feel accepted in mixed company. |
