Some Perceptions of Americans : Europe & especially England. Americans are stupid and unsubtle. And they are fat and bad dressers. Finland. Americans always want to say your name: Thats a nice tie, Mikko. Hi Mikko, how are you Mikko Indian. Americans are always in a hurry. Just watch the way they walk down the street. Kenyan. Americans are distant. They are not really close to other people -- even other Americans. Turkey. Once we were out in a rural area in the middle of nowhere and saw an American come to a stop sign. Though he could see in both directions for miles, and there was no traffic, he still stopped! Colombia. In the United States, they think that life is only work. Indonesia. In the United States everything has to be talked about and analyzed. Even the littlest thing has to be Why, why why?. Ethiopia. The American is very explicit. He wants a yes or no. If someone tries to speak figuratively, the American is confused. Iran. The first time my American professor told me I dont know, I will have to look it up, I was shocked. I asked myself Why is he teaching me?
