I can't help but laugh at this picture. But, I wonder if it's 100% true for each country in this pic. Discuss.

I don't know if it's true/false or stereotyping or not, but it gave me a chuckle.

I would've shown a silhouette of a man wielding a hockey stick, riding on the back of a moose straight to a Tim Horton's.

Why aren't the Americans holding guns? They should be holding guns.

The Irish female silhouette should have a black eye.

While I understand the joke of showing the opposite of Ireland, aversion to alcohol isn't the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of Saudi Arabia. Is there some way you can show (in silhouette form) religious police chasing down a woman who isn't fully clothed?

For the Netherlands, I'd bathe the leaf in some red light.

I think Americans holding guns would've been offensive. Of course I'm not saying any of those silhouettes aren't offensive.

The Canada thins is totally wrong, it should be the guy chasing the moose. Up here in Northern Ontario, it's the moose that are scared, not the friggin' sheep, eh?

Also, don't understand the association of polar bears and Russia; while polar bears are indeed there (as far as I remember), that's something that's normally associated with Canada.

For Greece, there should be food and wine. Money chasing? That belongs to Israel (oy vey, my relatives would be so disappointed) ;)

Hurr durr, Americans are fat LOL. I don't know any obesity rates of any other countries exept MURICA so I'll continue to make ignorant generalizations that pertain to only 30% of the 300+Million 'Muricans

By the way I'm European, or Canadian depending on how stupid i'm feeling.

America!! FVCK YEAH!! (Jk I hate Americans LOL)

Um, no. That would be a very western-centric stereotype. Most people love Hay'a. And there's no such thing as "fully-clothed", there are two kinds of Abaya, you either wear them, or you don't (not possible).
