Today I just bumped into a couple of funny (as in haha) videos and I thought of sharing them with you to try and get some conclusions. You know how everybody's always talking about how stupid and dumb Americans are, but, do you think it is fair to ask people in the street random questions to find that out???? I mean, what would happen if you started asking regular people in la Gran Vía in Murcia these kind of questions? Check this out and tell me what you think.....

For me the best question is Who is Fidel Castro? and the answer he is a singer. I think that everybody looks unintelligent when are asked for a TV program or something like that, abour the blonde girl I believe that she shouldn´t have gone to the programm without study all the primary subjects.
ReplyDelete10 Eiffel Towers in Paris, Budapest as Capital, situated in Australia... Woooo, I love F R A N C E! Seriously. :P
ReplyDeleteTo collect data for statistics, ramdom samples are used. So, as long as they're representative of the country's population in terms of age, nationality and gender, I find it a fair method.
Concerning the blonde, I've got nothing to say, She already did!
Good night! See you!
First of all I´d like to say that I´m not impressed at all ´cos when I went to USA people used to ask me where Spain was and also if there was beaches in my country.Despite the fact that Spain is the second most visited country in the world they seemed to be lost. But what struck me more was their interest in knowing what European people thoght about North American people. They appeared to be worried about their image, especially regarding political issues. But I have to say they were very friendly and treated me very well.
ReplyDeleteRelated to the videos, personally speaking I think it´s not fair to mock other people´s lack of culture. I know they´re playing a joke but it doesn´t make me laugh. I bet the TV show isn´t interested in showing us the people who answered the questions properly.
Nevertheless, I find it funny how patriotic American are.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThe american people represents the clearest image of a manipulated society, so much so that every chance they have, they demonstrate it. I know this is a video where they've chosen the best specimens, but history clears up how easy their goverments handled them. I'm not an intellect, but this is too much!
I'm surprised how amazing human beings are. It's just unbelievable the way this girl is talking to the crowd, seemed to know something but just telling "jokes". Maybe she is just an actress or maybe she is like we can see. Anyway, I'm sure all of us could give an stupid answer, haven't you played trivial? but we'd had never gone so far. see you guys
ReplyDeleteThe best question is: Star War is based on a true story; it´s that true or false? And the interviewed answered...True!!jaja
ReplyDeleteI had watched the blond girl`s video and is so funny.It´s not representative of amarican people, because it is just a coincidence that the lady was born there, but it could happend in other developed countries. In Sapain we have too many of this "blond" girls and guys....
