I'm Paul from London. I don't talk like a cockney, and I never voted for New Labour.

I now live in Denmark, I'm polite and I know how to queue, and I'm not a closet communist.

Great thread!

Btw, I think this should be moved to 'General Discussion'.

Hi, I'm from America.

Our usual stereotype:  Fat, stupid warmongers.

That's not me.

Oh, and I never voted for G.W. Bush.

I'm from Canada. I don't play hockey, in fact I don't even like it. I don't wear flannels or hiking boots, I certainly don't say 'aboot', and I don't club seals.

I am posting on an internet forum, therefore my opinion is fact.

I'm from Canada too...  I don't say "eh" for every other word (although it does slip out), I don't live in an igloo, in most of the country we don't have snow most of the year, I don't drink beer - I'm more of a hard liquor girl myself

Hi, I'm Geoff from Toronto and I've never managed to watch a hockey game in my life. I can't skate or ski worth a damn and loathe most things about winter, in fact.

wow, going by you Geoff, I'm the walking Canadian stereotype!  I go to at least one hockey game a year, I figure skate and I used to love skiing (I haven't been in about 8 years)!

I'm from the Netherlands. No, I don't smoke weed or hash all day, I don't walk on wooden shoes, I don't live in a windmill, I don't grow tulips in my garden and I have never put my finger into a dyke.

I'm only saved by my own incompetence (again), really.  ;D
