And yes, americans are known for their stupidity, but we aren't mindless, you know...oh, what the h3ll...yeah we are...well, most of society...the ones that like xXx and not the Matrix πŸ™„ .

...i guess u live in a trailer park, cuz from my perspective i go to school with some of the brightest kids in this country...and mind you. even if u where born in Timbuktu, once u move to America u r an American... America is a wonderful country i think we sometimes get a lot of shyt from those who are jealous or ignorant..

I am not trying to say that every American is stupid. All I am trying to understand is how can America adopt a phase that authenticates its product, people, etc, when the comparison it uses draws a comparison that is not even correct?

That would be like a Canadian saying, "As Canadian as Baseball," or something to the effect.

Americans are allowed to be smart. I applaude you and your respective peers. I wish there was more of you.

what a minute its not like canada is brlliant there are just as many dumb people in canada as america...and heres your ansewer http://www.phrases.org.uk/bulletin_board/5/messages/1406.html

TPS, that last post was really good, you covered your point and flattered Canada clap

I totally see his point, for the record, and I'm British πŸ˜„

πŸ™„ Just because someone moved to America, it doesnt automaticly mean he/she is an American. Einstain was German, he was born and grew up there, he can never be American.

Although Lils, I was born in Wales, and moved to England. I'm therefore English. But I'm sure that has something to do with the fact that I was born on an English RAF Camp, else I'd be Welsh βœ…

Actually Australia is better at stealing then Americans are eg. Kiley Minouge is 'Australian' (english) Mel Gibson is 'Australian' (american) Russel Crow is 'Australian' (new zealander) America's got nothing on Aus πŸ™‚

Why does this expression exist? It doesn't make sense.

Because Canada is America Jr.

ooooooooohhhh insult lol

insult? I meant that as a compliment to Canadians. I could have always claimed they were dutch. πŸ˜„

It is true.

Canada has beer that is not watered down to the point of being disgusting, and America is the worlds Superpower. It is a win-win situation for both sides

Superpower? HA!

Interesting. But none the less I really don't care about who inventd apple pie.

Canadians just grasp to every little thing they have ever "invented" in order to make their country seem important in some way when it simply is not.

Hockey is the only important thing to ever come out of Canada.

but could you really classify hockey as important? eh?

Nah, I guess not. But that's aboot all I like that came out of Canada, eh.

To the best of my knowledge, apple pie was invented in England. I think people are just making stuff up to make Canada seem important.

Canadian Whiskey
Canadian Bacon

I like Canada! Cold but clean cities πŸ˜„
