Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1448961What a pathetic moron! Lucky for you, this video was made to make you laugh. Are you seriously trying to tell me that you think all of America is like this? I had more respect for you than was warranted if you're being serious. I think it's time to stop generalizing and to start thinking outside the box. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1448854Don't worry i am sure there are many equivalents in Canada too. Some of my best friends for years are from Canada. I respect them whole heartedly, but I must confess, I laughed at the video. I too have hedges and I absolutely detest doing them. I'm thinking about just pulling them out and saying fuck it. It takes about 3 complete days to do my hedges :/ |

Truth be told, I have met many fucking awesome people from a diverse set of countries and I can honestly say, they are my fellow humans. Do I have a chip on my shoulder? Probably, but I can at least say, I have met a bunch of people from a plethora of different countries that I would gladly give my life for. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1448863 ![]() 06/30/2011 04:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are some Americans like this guy. They just don't live very long. The stunt was mildly funny. I liked the fact that the hedge actually got trimmed lower. I think the OP has a point, but his/her point is just too generalized. Some Americans will do crazy stunts, are willing to do jackass things to get a laugh, even at their own expense. Americans like to come up with new ideas, even if they are goofy or silly. Sometimes they are ingenious. People in other countries (at least the ones I've visited) are not as entertained or enthralled by these boisterous, crazy, sometimes arrogant behaviors and stunts. Although they usually like to watch them on television, they resent it when in person. |
