Yes, I am currently living in another country and it does get alienating sometimes. Despite the hype about "Americans don't have any culture", that is really not true. When you live in other places you are shocked by some of the cultural norms in other countries. Certain things that are legal in other countries are illegal in the US.

i have no problem with americans, im english by the way, we are all the same, i dont care much for the bush administration especially on foreign policy but hey blair aint no better thats just politics, i judge people on who they are not where they come from, the world is only a small place and we are the same. i like the way you mention how we think americans are disrespectful i dont know about all americans but john s seems to be, not just disrespectful but ignorant also, we fought in those wars aswell john, and you were only our allies, allies that played a small part only in the war against hitler, we dont blame america for our misfortunes, we blame ourselves and colonialism where we exhausted ourselves giving the world "freedom" the same sort of "freedom" mr bush and mz rice are handing out now to the middle east, and we did that round about the same time that your ancestors john moved over to america from one of our (probably britain) nations, but anyway back to the question i dont dislike americans at all, i find myself disliking john s but thats just one american

Almost all of the people I come into contact with on a day-to-day basis are not Americans, although I am.  Aside from the people in my office, I know only one American.  Everyone else I know are English, Scottish, Turkish, Australian, Russian, Taiwanese, Spanish or Phillipino.\n\nEvery once in a while I meet somebody who doesn't seem to understand the fact that I am not George Bush, but it is rare.  Almost to the individual, they understand that the American people are NOT the American government.\n\nThey see our news and hear our commentaries.  Many of them are as aware of Bush's unpopularity as we are.  Few will even bring up politics with us, but when they do it seems to be with the understanding that we do not like the American government's actions either.\n\nMany people overseas are acutely aware of what it is like to live in a country where the will of the people is ignored.  This is a newer concept for us, but it is a very familiar one around the world.\n\nI wouldn't worry too much about it.  Yesterday I was talking with a Russian woman who likened our situation to life under Putin's government.  They understand tyranny and rigged elections all too well.  Now we are finding out what it's like, and I think you would be suprised how much empathy a HUMBLE American can get.

my understanding is that this is a universal ENGLISH yahoo answers, you will find more than just Americans on here, just change the time of day you are on and you will notice the difference.

Yes, I have been to other Yahoo!Answers countries.  I presume you mean visiting them online.  I usually am on Yahoo!Answers United States, which I take it is the main country and I get onto it through default.  I live in Canada.  I also have visited Yahoo!Answers Canada and Yahoo!Answers France, where I posed a question.  It is funny, until I read your question, I had never considered just visiting a certain Yahoo!Answers country just to get to know the country or the people better.  Maybe I should try it some time!

CHILL DUDE.\ni'm from UK and i personally think the Americans are great i've met quite a few and found them all to be polite and friendly and very warm people.\nWhat you say we think about you may apply to some but then again there is no shortage of that kind of people in the UK too,and probably any country you can think of.

Personally I think that Yahoo is flooded by foreign people. I find a lot from India.  So,maybe it is because they don't even speak English well let alone write it. Just an idea! \nThink about it.

If you saw how long I spend on some of my answers you might think I must come from a different country according to your statement. (Or maybe you'd just think I was a bit slow witted? Ha ha!) But guess what, I'm a US citizen.\n\nOne of my humbling moments as a US citizen came when I was living in Japan. I was at a business meeting with Japanese, Australians, English, and a couple of US citizens. One of the Australians started doing an impression of US citizens. She started talking loudly, smiling broadly (showing a lot of teeth), and gesturing. I thought it was funny. The citizens from other countries thought it was even funnier. I might imagine the whole world enjoying such a joke on US citizens, but that would be another stereotype--on the other citizens of the world.\n\nI think people will see what they want to see--especially if they are looking for it. For instance, "Is it true that Americans answer immediately, without giving it much to think about?" \n\nIt's easier for people to think in stereotypes. People think like that to make sense of their world. I'm not saying it's a terrible thing. However, they may be missing interaction with people they might actually enjoy spending time with. Such separation doesn't bring the world closer to peace. It's also rather lonely and boring don't you think?

As an American, all i got to say is amen brother. You have painted an accurate picture of how it is here. I'm almost ashamed now days to be an american.

Hey there. I'm a Malaysian (a country in South East Asia) and I may have a different perspective among other answerers (I do live outside of America, don't I?) Anyway, most people would view Americans as rich, well-educated, and sadly, trigger happy. Yes. Nobody here ever thought of Americans having troubles with drugs, illegal immigrants, and so forth, because the only news that we get about America in our news papers are about Bush's policies against the world, about Hollywood actors, and American sport. As a proof, give me a minute as I fetch today's paper.\n...\nOkay, from the Borneo Post on American related news:\nHome: None (for obvious reasons, haha)\nClassified: None\nSports: "Storms douse action at US Athletics championships"\nWorld: "US warships successfully shoots down warhead in test"\n"Poll finds great divide between West, Muslims"\n"FBI arrests seven in Miami"-suspect netted in raid over alleged plot to attact Chicago Sears Tower skyscraper\n"US Senate rejects Democratic deadlines for quitting Iraq"\nTV Guide: None\nPeople&Places: A lot especially on Keith Urban's and Nicole Kidman's wedding\nBusiness: None\n\nNo news on drugs. No news on illegal immigrants. We don't know anything about the real life of Americans unless we surf the internet and actually search for American news. America equals to Hollywood. If I were to tell my neighbour that I am going to New York, she would say "Are you going to Hollywood? Americans must be very handsome and pretty and rich. How can you afford to stay there? Don't they hate Asians and Muslims? You'd better not go if you want your mother to have a grandchild." Some also view that Americans are living in their own world. When the whole world is crazy about football (soccer), Americans would watch NFL. When the world is against George W Bush because of what he did to the world (such as invading Iraq without UN's permission and refusing to pay back US' debts), Americans kept supporting him. CNN controls the mind of Americans. Nevertheless, the American Dream is always on most pauper's mind, hence creating the illegal immigrant problem. I'm not suprised because before I saw your question, I came upon a question where someone asked "Which country is the richest?" and most answerers replied "USA". Americans are also vein for thinking that other countries are poorer eventhough most countries here have a lower unemployment rate and a higher buying power. Well, that's only from my humble opinion. I'm sorry if I made anyone angry but it is reality, and that is what we really think about Americans. I hope I helped out in a way or another.
