Why is it when people try to hurl insults at you, either online or off, the FIRST thing they try to go for, is your nationality?
For example, I was in the middle of a drama fest now 6 days ago, and the first thing this bunch of girls went for, was the fact I am Canadian - oh so im a stupid Canadian, im an ignorant Canadian, a Canadian hoe, you get the point.
But, you didn't see me calling them a stupid American, or an american hoe? I mean honestly its just so funny that people seem to think taking jabs at me because I am Canadian is going to hurt me. Nice one!
Has this happened to anyone else? Discuss!

Oh, I get the 'stupid American' thing all the time. And it never fails to boggle me. Yes, I'm American. Yes, I'm Christian. No, I'm not a fundy Bush a$$-kisser, thank you very much. Anyone who has to fall back on insults based on nationality need to take a step back and have a good long look at themselves, if you ask me.

Yeah, I've had people insult me online in the past before too based on my nationality, people have called me a stupid, ignorant american, fat american (they have no proof if i'm fat or not because they haven't met me IRL), etc. and it's just retarted. when/if people do insult me I'll just leave the convo because I'm not going to be as immature as they are and fight back
