True? False? Kind of right?

 

 

Fat is an American stereotype, but I think the more common one is that we’re all cowboys that love shooting guns and talking with a Southern accent.

Wait, "drink a lot of vodka" is a common stereotype for Sweden, Ukraine and Poland?  I've never in my life even heard those combinations  

 

Spoiler

Polish people in the Netherlands are more associated with drinking lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of beer all throughout the week.

 

 

Smoking weed? I guess a certain amount of people do, but only sometimes do I smell a weed smell or something. Sadly cigarettes are significantly more common, like probably in most places in the world.

Yes, I also noticed more people around me drinking beer than vodka. Although much more often there are empty vodka bottles than beer bottles in the elevator, on the bus stops etc.

So 'do not go to a Slovak hostel' is less frequent? That sounds dangerous, because you know, don't

CZE is impossible to beat in terms of beer consumption by the way, yes, but Slovakia isn't that high up  (High, but not 'top of the world' high)

Not exactly surprising Germany is high on the list, although a bit surprising it's not by far in 1st place

Obviously the "Hostel" stereotype is very high as well

It's not a stereotype if it's true man.

 

I'm now going to go out for some groceries on my wooden shoes !
