  • The nationality telling the joke against the others, usually.
  • The Australians. I'm not bias or anything :)
  • I always think of the Japanese as being very smart. PS - The British make fun of the Irish? I never knew that - I'm Irish, those British wankers :) Well the Irish make fun of the Scottish, who do the Scottish make fun of?
  • A country who doesn't drop to those levels.
  • The Japanese.
  • I think it's funny that, in American, people in Illinois make fun of people in Indiana, and people in Michigan make fun of people in Ohio, people in Indiana and Ohio make fun of people in Kentucky, who make fun of people in West Virginia. Who do people in West Virginia make fun of?
  • I had no idea we made fun of the Poles. This is news to me. I'm gonna have to agree with the others that the Japanese have probably gotten pretty smart because they place such a huge value on education.
  • British. They know how to talk right.
  • Jewish people and Japanese are often stereotyped as being more intelligent.
  • I think everyone makes fun of each other at some time or another.
  • Here in the U.S. many people consider Asians to be more intelligent. Honestly, they do seem to be far more dedicated to their studies than most American kids.
  • Which nationality has the reputation for being smart? These are all huge stereotypes but I will answer from observations of such sterotyping none the less: -Japanese -Korean-Americans, "math whiz kids" -Dutch, "masters of trade" -Jewish people in general, wherever they have dispersed to -The American upper middle class: doctors, lawyers, etc. are considered smarter than their counterparts in other places; also American "entrepreneur" spirit embodied by people like Bill Gates as well as historic figures (Carnegie, et al) who helped steal this continent and exploit its natural riches Please don't flame me for this. You asked for stereotypes.
  • not the US, that's for sure.
  • The most intelligent nation (or ethnic group) is this one which value an education of their childern. As for stereotypes, it is said among educated Europeans that Americans are unintelligent, what's more Americans have barbarian manners(it is said in Europe). European have a complex of being less wealthy than Americans. Americans have a complex of their behaviour and manners. In sereotypes there is always one rule that neighbours do not like each other. British are smart for Americans, but stupid for French. Canadian do not like Americans and vice versa. Everyone or everything is better, smarter if the one is far away.
  • The asian-indians
  • The Jews! That being said... Germans have a reputation of excellence in Science and Engineering. Russians for Chess, Choral Music, Philosophy, and the more esoteric (almost mystical) frontiers of Math and applied Physics. Scots for practical down-n-dirty engineering. French for abstract reasoning. Irish for literature. All the Celtic peoples (Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Breton) for oratory and drama. Blacks for athletics, improvisation, music, performing arts, public speaking, and negotiations (and like the Irish, make damn good cops, and the Scotch-Irish, great marines!) English for seamanship, merchant banking, and their shear pluck: their effortless air of superiority over foreigners. Swiss for organization and administration. Americans for R&D, invention, innovation, adaptation, implementation, and reorginization. Chinese for scientific research, classical music, and encyclopedic learning. Hindus for knowledge of (if not the creation of) arts and literature, and the more etherial regions of Math and Computer Science. Italians for style, design, and simply for their genius for living!
  • I work in tech support I can tell you who the dumbest are: 1. Americans - they fall into the your too stupid to own a computer category. Remember you can buy you education in America and you can always hide your past in this country. 2. Any Asian. Overall a real big bunch of dumb and dumbers. It's a pity that most Asian cultures support the smart kid the family doing the homework of all the members in the universal family. Gives the misconception that there are a lot of smart ones. 3. Indians - Yes I know they are part of Asia (I'm not American). What Indians are good at is saying "yes sir", then going out onto forums and asking everyone else how they should do their job. 4. "white" Commonwealth member Countries. Political correctness and left wing communist mentality has corrupted these once bastions of intelligence. I guess this is what happens when you piss in the gene pool.
