Many Americans ARE full of themselves, I agree! The government constantly tells them how "blessed" they are and spends money on overseas wars instead of taking care of domestic issues.
Everything is easy, instant, and guilt-free. They eat crap like McDonald's and Taco Bell, and then want to take a pill and lose 20 lbs overnight. They can't understand how they crashed their cars in the snow when they have all wheel drive, GPS navigation, stability control and ABS.
They worship insipid television programs like American Idol and Jerry Springer. Schools only get money if they graduate all the students, so kids end up stupid just so the school board gets paid. Being a "gangster" is cool, and even 10-year olds have been charged with shooting people.
There are some wonderful things in America, but the general population isn't one of them. Maybe it's because, as countries go, the USA is quite young. You all across the pond have had a few more centuries to get things worked out, and you can make fun of each other without being sued.
So try to think of America as the rebellious teenager that gives everyone else the finger and acts like a bully, and hope that it somehow grows up.
For the record, we're not all like that, and despite what American media tries to convince you of, close to half the country is disgusted with everything here. It's enough to make me want to move to Europe.

Some people gave you the answer to your question. Do you include them in this? Yes, there are not just arrogant people in American, but moronic as well. But every country has those. You cannot judge a country on the answers you get on this site.

I hope you are not so naive as to believe that just because someone says they are American they really are... I mean I could claim to be from Russia then act like an a$$hole ,then you would think the same all people from Russia.. Truth is American has a lot of good people but alas we do have some bad...just like where ever you are from....GET THIS no other country on the face of this planet gives more money to other countries during times of need... and guess who's pockets it comes from... Americans....that's the way we are.....:):):):)

Dont judge a whole country by a few jerks on here that like to pull your chain. I have news for you, there are people in EVERY country that are just the same as SOME Americans. Our dear president has brought out the worst in some of us with his actions,lies, his useless war, and more. I am not saying that in defense of the people that were rude to you, only stating a fact. I am sorry that you were treated the way you were.
American by birth, Southern by the grace of God.

I'm sorry. I'm American and proud of it. I also grew up in the military and lived abroad for more than a decade. We Americans are bashed in all countries, and no longer have any patience. We are what we are and make no excuses. But I will apologize.

The operative word here is "some". Not all of are arrogant. Unfortunately, a lot of us (not me ) put an idiot in the white house. Go figure.

Well, I am American and if you are going to judge us as a whole based on the comments you see here, then you are no better then the people who made those rude comments. Not all of us are rude and prejudiced.
