I've had people abroad tell me that we only have winter in Finland and no other seasons. Also the Swedes think we're alcoholic and violent.

Truth is most of our year is winter, 6 months of winter starting from October to March, there's still snow in April but it's technically spring by then, we have two months of spring, Two months of summer, and two months of autumn. Then back to hellishly-cold-freezing winter.

And also alcoholism statistically is quite high here. But I think I blame the cold dark winter for that, when you go 3 months without sunlight at a time every year, you're bound to go kind of insane.

All of our teenagers are utter imbeciles and just love shop and hang out at the mall and flirt. Although many are like that, there are some teenagers who are not at all like that! I say I'm 16 and people go, "Oh your one of those preppy little snobs." No I am nothing like that.

You're asking Americans about misconceptions people have of us? Brave man!

We're not all loud-mouthed jerks, ignorant fools, insenstive clods, or rude oafs.

Btw, one of my neighbors is Ukrainian -- she's slim, funny, and has a great figure. :)

Can not speak for people overseas. I just know that Americans are hated in many places, and people have general reasons for thinking they hate Americans.
