And I just had my latest French course about Finland and we listened French people talking about Finland and Finns and they think we are cold people, because it's cold in here or something like that...
3. And everyone thinks we are terrible barbarians or something because we go to sauna naked. OMG! How can we do something like that?!!!! *is very shocked* I meen... what is it with nudity? How can it be so terrible?
4. I've known an American exchange students from the Southern States, who was shocked when she saw a few young guys wearing boxers. She was all freaked out and wanted to go home after that...
5. Okey, I'm not saying all yankees are that stupid, I just meen...
6. Not all of us are terrible drinkers.

1. I've never heard any stereotypes about Finland. I think it's cold up there, isn't it? That's all I know.
2. Heh! Pretty funny some stereotypes, ain't they!
3. Heh! Naked... Scary!
4. Well, notice 'Southern'. If I remember corectly, the Southern States are full of overly-religious freaks who see spaceships every fortnight.
5. You mean a lot are... Or at least I do.
6. Well. You drink cider, don't you. Which I hear is a terrible drink...
