Stereotypes of your country (how much, shops, office)

[acrylic]

It is a stereotype that American students are dumb. The stereotype is right to some degree. I'm sure the US has the most number of students that go to school and don't apply themselves. That doesn't mean that all students are. But you know how stereotypes take things outta whack.

Capital of Stockholm would be Helsinki

The stereotype that many people of color have of us White Americans is that all of the guys speak like Jeff Spicoli from "Fast Times At Ridgemont High" and all of the women speak like valley girls.
