/jp/ - Otaku Culture

This is how Japan sees 'Merica!

>very classy and shit

Who gave you that misconception?
Europeans are just Americans with worse teeth and (marginally) less fatasses.

>>1289926
Id imagine they see europe the same way we do..

>>1289932
I think OP was talking about how Americans usually picture British people as polite people who wear hats and canes.

>>1289926
They want to be them. American culture is true class over there.

European = blond blue-eyed person with freckles and a glass of red wine.
American = fat blond blue-eyed person with freckles and a t-shirt with an American flag on it.

The Japanese see the amerikans the same way we Europeans do, and they see us as untouchable Gods.

Japan thinks Americans are gun toting maniacs, and if you walk down the streets of New York, you'll get shot. So do Europeans. Americans are the only people who don't, and that's because they are in denial.

>>1289957
Europeans and Japanese overlook the fact that they have similar places where you can't go without getting shot in their own countries.

It's called projection when they shit talk us about it.

>>1289957
Thats odd. I never feel that way when I walk around NYC. It feels just like any other large city. The only large cities I've not felt safe walking around in were in China, Russia, and parts of the EU.

German - Beer
Italian - Pasta

what

I'd post one of those IN AMERICA pics, but I don't seem to have any.
But yeah, basically loud fatties eating McDonalds for every other meal and wear shoes in the house.

>>1289966
>places where you can't go without getting shot
That's because they don't exist. Now places where you can't go without getting stabbed, those exist in Europe and Japan.

like this?

>>1289975
Lol, yes the famous city of 'parts of the EU'. I know it well.....just like you do....

>>1289990
You're kidding right? The EU and Japan have insane violent crime rates involving bladed weapons.

>>1289963
yeah ill have some of that pasta, baby!

Americans being gun-crazy has always been the weirdest stereotype. There are probably more people in 'Murica who don't own guns than those who do.

>>1290006
Read the post again?

>>1289986
What what?

>>1289926
Most of Europe doesn't exist to the Japs. France is a fairyland, Germany's cool, Russians are jerks. That's about it.

>>1290004
I didn't feel like naming cities in the Eastern EU.

>>1290012

Here is your answer

/thread

>>1290007
I live in the Southern US.
Out of maybe 1000 people I would say 3-7% are armed.
However of that 3-7% there are people like my grandfather who owns 117 firearms, 11 sport bows, and 30+ knives. When he dies I will receive over $15,000 in firearms. That's my quarter share roughly. Plan on keeping 2 sidearms, 1 rifle, and 1 shotgun and selling the rest. Maybe keep a sport bow.
I have no idea what to do with the 2 uzis and 3 assault rifles I will be receiving though. They're illegal as far as I know.

Yeah keep saying how dumb fat and violent we are, just don't forget that all the technological advances we turn out vis NASA or MIT.

>>1290012
You'd think they'd like the Netherlands for what they're known for, but nah.

This is the US to Japan.

It translates to women with blond hair and large tits.

>>1290012
>>1290014
>Being an American, I know fuck-all about the rest of the world, and care less.

There, fixed that for you.

>>1290012
But this picture >>1289963 proves they know about Italy and the UK... also my picture here proves they even know about my shitty country, but exactly why they know about it is a misery to me...

>>1290030
And you try to remember that 70% of your scientist arent even 1st generation Americans...

>>1290009
Most of Europe doesn't exist to the rest of the world, anyways.

France - fags
Britain - stuckup jerks or prim and proper people with high amounts of manners
Germany - smart jerks
The are the only countries in Europe. The rest are all stereotyped by their areas (like anywhere in Scandinavia or Eastern Europe), or just flat out don't exist (like Spain).

>>1290040
There might be a reason smart people come to the USA. Who knows?

>>1290042
Spain exists through all those countries it fucked up beyond salvation during the imperial age.

>>1290043
because for science the rest of the world is a shithole?

>>1290040
If Europe is so fucking great then why are the smartest people leaving? Tons of American Universities are flooded with International students not the other way around.

>>1290048
I guess thats why LHC is built in Europe.

I have learned to not argue with Europeans because they are the smartest people in the world.

>>1289963

>>1290055
>>1290055
Only because the tunnels for the LHC were already there... built in the 1980s.

>>1290049
Funny if america is so great why
>Most, 58.5%, of all Americans will spend at least one year beneath the poverty line at some point between ages 25 and 75.[3] While there remains some over whether the official poverty threshold over- or understates poverty, the United States has some of the highest absolute and relative pre- and post-transfer poverty rates in the developed world.

>>1290046
Yes, but a good deal of the kids I deal with at the University can't even tell me anything about it other than the conquering thing (granted most of them can't even find any of the countries in Europe on a map anyways). Even the foreign students usually don't know anything about Spain, other than where it is and their part in exploration.

>>1290040
Isn't the first generation the native americans? Everything else is immigrants lol

>>1290075
first generation refers to people who's parents immigrated.

>>1290066
Poverty builds character, something that Americans have plenty of. Unlike you spineless baby yuropeans.

p.s. be sure to call us the next time somebody starts kicking your collective asses again, we'll think about helping in a few years..

It was being built in Texas.

>>1290049

It's because a lot of our universities like to give the impression that they're, "international," hence they'll accept a lot of foreign students whether or not they have high scores and grades, or if their results are middling.

America: The Good Neighbor.

Widespread but only partial news coverage was given recently to a remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian television commentator. What follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as printed in the Congressional Record:

"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans as the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people on all the earth.

Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy were lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts. None of these countries is today paying even the interest on its remaining debts to the United States.

When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be insulted and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it.

When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities were flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped.

The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars! into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those countries are writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans.

>>1290060
>I have learned to not argue with Europeans because they like to think that they are the smartest people in the world.

Fixed.

>>1290091
I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane. Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10? If so, why don't they fly them? Why do all the International lines except Russia fly American Planes?

Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man or woman on the moon? You talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios. You talk about German technocracy, and you get automobiles.

You talk about American technocracy, and you find men on the moon -! not once, but several times - and safely home again.

You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right in the store window for everybody to look at. Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are here on our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking Canadian laws, are getting American dollars from ma and pa at home to spend here.

When the railways of France, Germany and India were breaking down through age, it was the Americans who rebuilt them. When the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York Central went broke, nobody loaned them an old caboose. Both are still broke.

>>1290094
I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced to the help of other people in trouble. Can you name me even one time when someone else raced to the Americans in trouble? I don't think there was outside help even during the San Francisco earthquake.

Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one Canadian who is damned tired of hearing them get kicked around. They will come out of this thing with their flag high. And when they do, they are entitled to thumb their nose at the lands that are gloating over their present troubles. I hope Canada is not one of those."

Stand proud, America!

This is one of the best editorials that I have ever read regarding the United States. It is nice that one man realizes it. I only wish that the rest of the world would realize it. We are always blamed for everything, and never even get a thank you for the things we do.

I would hope that each of you would send this to as many people as you can and emphasize that they should send it to as many of their friends until this letter is sent to every person on the web. I am just a single American that has read this.

>>1290075
Gee, I wonder why everybody immigrated to America.

Oh wait, no I don't. lol europe.

>>1290091
>>1290094
>>1290095
Cool story bro.

>>1290043
MONEY

The way I see it, no one rushes to aid america because no one thinks we need the aid.

I guess since we used to be a super power, everyone assumes we can handle ourselves.
And we can.
But fuck if it isn't hard.

>>1290106
I'm not your bro, buddy

If the USA was really as warmongering as you guys make them sound, you would all be dead or under a part of the USA by now.

>>1290143
I'm not your buddy, guy.

>>1290040
HAHAHA Wow you are a fucking idiot.

>>1290165
I'm not your guy, friend!

>>1290181
I'm not your friend, dear

burp! burp! I'm imitating an American.. hehe Americans are so pathetic without us Euros... lol rote merkins

>>1290214
This is America without Amerigo Vespucci and Columbus.

From Welcome to the NHK novel:

"I would beat out other hikikomori regardless of country, whether it was a Russian hikikomori who escaped through vodka, an English hikikomori whose escape was through drugs, or an American hikikomori who found escape by randomly shooting guns indoors."

So Japanese see Russians as drunks, Europeans as drug addicts, and Americans as gun-toting crazies.

10000000 internets to you my good sir, and a touhou art from 2chan

>>1290021

Is that British guy referencing the Ministry of Silly Walks sketch? Do Japs even know about Monty Python?

>>1290277
in b4 that fag who claims only japs can be hikki.

For the first time, a thread starting with a Hanyuu image is actual taken seriously.

Something is terribly wrong here.

>>1290505
It's like I'm in bizarro /jp/.

Or /pj/.

>>1290505

It started with a blank image, I don't know what you are talking about. That's why there's discussion, because they're no image to distract us.

Thank President Bush for strengthening the stereotypes of Americans. Presidents and Prime Ministers are a mirror of what their Nation's people are like. If the country is filled with dumbasses, you're going to get stuck with a dumbass President.

Holy shit, Russia is full of Putins?

Pajama hijack?

No.

>>1290644
Please?

>>1290648
well you could simply just make your own thread, hmm?

>>1290657
I wouldn't want to clog up the board with a /c/ thread, we could always just discuss whatever is going on in this thread while posting pajamas, no?

America? EUROPE!? Bleh, 3D pig disgusting! Me, I'm a citizen of the Internets!
