You do realise this is all because we are british and have a historic rivalry with france.

If you asked an american, they would probably have loads about canadian people, just because they have a rivalry too.

The_blue · 28 Feb 2011 at 16:49

Same for the scots

Also same rules apply for the welsh but in reverse, we've never cared enough about them

Fully lol'd.

I'm not racist in the slightest, but one thing i don't mind at all and that i can't help but lol at, is racial stereotypes, because more often than not they are so ridiculous and have no basis, they become hilarious.

They're sort of "faux ignorance".
