Dec 4 2006Gwyneth Paltrow can't get her foot out of her mouth

Oh, dear lord, I do believe I'm first.

Oh Gwyneth, dear, do stuff it.

Who cares? So what if she likes England more. It's a valid opinion.

Flip flopper!

http://www.scandalsnappers.com/

The girl is such an unabashed Anglophile, it doesn't surprise me that her love of English guff accidentally spills out every so often. So, I don't mind it so much. It's like expecting an anorak-wearing train enthusiast to shut up about it, or asking me to keep silent about maiming small animals. Most of the time you won't hear a peep from me about it. But every now and then I might just mention how I LOVE WATCHING THEIR ENTRAILS PLOP OUT OF THEIR BODIES WHILE THEY SQUEAL AND WRITHE.

*cough* As I say, most of the time I manage to keep a lid on it.

She's ugly.

And she's a miserable person. Great combination.

Having spent a lot of time around both the British and Americans, I have to say she's completely right about the capitalism, civility and intelligence.

But I bet that doesn't go down to well, so I won't say it here.

Gwyneth and Madonna... good riddance! PS: Gwyneth lived in Spain with a host family during college, and she told Ellen Degeneres that she still speaks with them today. Seventh grade Spanish my ass.

I love how all these celebrities bash on American and what we represent...however, no one has problem making American movies and earning the American Dollar. If Gwen has that much of a problem with America she should shoot her next film in Europe and see if her that will make her as wealthy as she is today!

I thought Michael Richards raised the bar on controversy too high for this sort of thing to be newsworthy anymore...

Ok ok, LISTEN UP!! QUIIIIIIIIIIIET! ah aaaaa shaaaadup!!

Ok, everyone whose chest DOESN'T look like my grandma's raise ya hands....eh ehh not. so. fast. Gwyenith of Cuntenshire

Nice third eye she's got there. All that money and she can't get herself some Clearisel?

And in England, Gwynnie, love, they'd never talk about that big fucking spot on your forehead over dinner. But in America we would, you zithead.
And pass the fucking peas, bitch.

Does she use the fake accent like Madge? She would sound even more civilized.

I'm sure her husband discovered a whole new world of Coldplay after marrying her.

Her turnaround comes from her love of work and money.. How ironic..

Fuck this arrogant, elitist, anorexic, pinko twat. Let her stay in England. Her weak chin and sallow complexion should fit in nicely there.

Ok #15? I was about to post some insulting observations regarding your post but, I'm impaired by alcohol and a lack intellectual depth due to many many many missed college classes.

Please explain how irony applies here :)

within the context of what you posted sir.

Yes, yes, call out an actress on her contradictions, but give Bush a free pass on his. She's right about that intelligence thingy. Oh, and Tom Cruise Loves the Contradictions

"Obviously I need to go back to seventh-grade Spanish!"

Did anyone pick up on that? Was she trying to say her Spanish was misquoted? Well she should go back to second grade social studies and learn that they speak Portugese in Portugal not Spanish you dumb cunt.

7th grade Geography also wouldn´t be a bad idea, since people don´t speak Spanish in Portugal.

Well, that's a trick. Speaking spanish to a a portuguese newspaper. No wonder they didn't understand her.

did someone just compare paltrow to dubya? Once again, i am scared & confused.

And peeling. Take Spanish, Social Studies and a goddamn peeling.

That's a slam dunk, #19. Noice.

If I were her agent, I would suggest to the Duchess of Northtamponhampshire here to take a nice mug of STFU ALE (available at any pub) before her bankability (what's left of it) goes to shite.

she's lying. she said nearly the same thing to the british paper The Guardian 11 months ago.
go here:
http://tinyurl.com/wv9qm

about half way down.

Bitch looks harsh, especially the complexion, and the third eye on her forehead, and the Church Lady smile, ...

You've got to love the fact that such an elitist, talentless, repulsive sack of shit, is also a complete moron.

Spanish indeed!

You know who this situation calls for?

Yeah, if you guessed Mel Gibson circa The Patriot you are thinking like a proper fucking American.

I'll personally give Mel a half a gallon of Bacardi rum and two, NO, three!! rolls of quarters if he puts an Ax thru the back of her skull.

Well, my point was Gwyneth said that Americans talk about work and money while English people talk about more interesting things.

Now, Gwyneth came out and apologized (or pretended to be misquoted) BECAUSE she fears it will affect her career.. Ya know, WORK AND MONEY..

#29 then I apologize to you dear sir.

Although I'm not sure that's irony, is it?!?!?!?

Here in the US "What do you do?" is a conversation opener, but in England it's considered rude, as one isn't defined by one's work. Cultural difference, yeah, but we don't need her to point it out - and really badly, too. And FYI, baby, there's plenty of Eurotrash moneygrubbers out there, too.
What's rich is that for all she thinks she fits in so well there you KNOW they're calling her "Septic" (as in "tank", rhymes with "Yank") behind her back. Sweet.

no 7 is right on -

I have lived 10 years in the US and there is obviously a lot to like about it - but the public in general is less educated, less critical, less intellectual than most west European countries. I know this will be followed up with a lot of "get the f(*&(*& out if you don't like it" which brings me to the next point that the average American can't handle criticisms and resorts to jingoism.

When Gwynneth says mean things about me I just sit back and smile, because she has ugly kids named after fruit and I don't.

England, a nation of free people who voluntarily subordinate themselves to a wealthy, elitist, but politically impotent royal family, known more for their affairs, divorces, and illegitimate offspring, than their altruism or noblesse oblige.

England, a nation whose elected politicians voluntarily and enthusiastically went to war, submitting to the will of an American politician who is quite probably too dumb to spell "nuclear", and completely unable to pronounce it.

England, a nation of melanin-deficient people who religiously disregard basic dental hygiene.

#33
This is true, that kid's gonna be called "Apple Martini" all her life. WTF was she thinking? And her son's even worse off.
NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE, is EVER going to scream "Fuck me, Moses!" to him even if he had a 10 inch cock and looks like Brad Pitt and Jude Law all rolled into one.

Seriously, no one.

I like Gwyneth. Something about her smile make sme think "Mona Lisa". She could use some botox on her forehead though

#37 - Jingoism!! I friggin' LOVE that game! Have you ever played Truth or dare Jingoism? it's way better & sometimes you get to some sexing.

naturally I meant #32, i've got some pretty good dope this week.

Oh barf -- another rich, spoiled brat complaining about American capitalism. She should give all her money away and go live in a smelly commune.

Q: Do you know why her husband is gay?
A: He listens to Coldplay.

Oh boo hoo, are we Americans so frail that we can't take criticism? C'mon, we are obnoxious.

We've done worse things than name our child Apple, I can't think of anything right now, but I sure we have. ;-)

http://www.holisticwisdom.com

What a fucking slut, when will Shanna Moakler punch out this bitch?

She was right in the first place and she didn't need to back-pedal. Americans have very little that is interesting or useful to say. I lived in France for a year in the late 1980s, and I regularly had conversations with high school kids that were more intellectually stimulating than any I've had on a typical evening in the US since.
So, intellect isn't our strong suit. Fortunately, we have other charms. We can spend an outrageous amount of time, energy, and Web space spawning debates about Aniston vs. Jolie, Hilton vs. Lohan, Spears vs. Federline, Locklear vs. Richards. Who else can do that, huh? Who? No one. Chin up, America!!!
And just in case you still don't feel better, keep in mind that scientists have determined that the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica could collapse without warning in a matter of days, and many of us will be wiped out in catastrophic flooding, and it won't really matter who was more interesting than who. (Just google Ross Ice Shelf, and you'll see...)

PS: I loooove it that Gwen is letting her forehead wrinkles show instead of Bo-toxing. How cool is that?

@30. No, that's not irony, it just means she's a goddamn hipocrite. Irony would be if Chris Martin dumps her ass for Paris Hilton. Or if one of her British dinner guests stab her in the eye with a fork for being an insufferable twat. Either one would make me smile.

There is NOTHING wrong with her stating this. It's absolutely true, Americans are generally less intelligent than pretty much all first world nations. Unfortuneately, the extreme nationalism of Americans allows for absolutely NO honest criticism or feedback. Go Gwen, it's too back you had to take it back

We're talking about someone here

• who named her children Apple and Moses
• thinks of Madonna as a role model
• couldn't last one semester in college
• was born into wealth and privilege
• has never truly "worked to live" or "lived to work"... WORKED.
• has only taken on superficial, hypocritical contracts with makeup and fashion companies in the last 6 years

Now she wants Americans to think that she's sorry, and her words were taken out of context?

Bullshit. She should just be the high school educated BIGOT she is. Why apologize so she can make money by work- afterall, she finds capitalism so repulsive and ignorant.

seventh grade spanish? haha it was a portuguese magazine, not a spanish one! and i'm sure the journalist spoke english..

#44.

Your right! Gwenyth is the poster child for 'dumb American'. Thanks for clearing the air.

Spanish? It's a portugese magazine lmao. Who the hell cares about her anyway?

Contrary to what many people believe, especially the post regarding French High School students (who are mostly Arab these days) the English are more articulate than us but they are not smarter. In fact there have been many articles in recent months, most notably in a British magazine called "The Economist" detailing the effects of what they call an education crisis in Europe. They have Oxford, we have Harvard, Yale, Standford, Northwestern, U of M..etc. POLYwag I say! Polywag to the snagglehag! And Hobwartz...

if i was shaped like an ironing board, had a husband that looks like a ferret and a baby named after a fucking piece of fruit...yeah, i'd be a bit cunty too.

#49
Ahem, Jingo-bells, you left out Cambridge, U of Edinburgh, LSE and a few more. Make your argument but don't stack the deck in your favor when you do it.

oh yeah, and England can keep her. please.

if the english are so much more intellignt then why do their cocks and teeth look like this?

44. Americans are certainly not less intelligent than Europeans. The human genome changes very slowly relative to the period of time since most of our ancestors immigrated. And, we are not genetically isolated. America is a nation of immigrants, and it always has been.

Our universities can be outstanding, if expensive, and there are a few very good public school systems in the U.S. That said, U.S. public schools, on average, are among the worst in the industrialized world.

In France, fluency in 2 foreign languages is considered a minimum for university study, and I have several coworkers who are fluent in 5. My daughter's 9 year old Korean friend was 2 years ahead in math when she arrived at one of the best public schools in the U.S.

As a nation, education is not a fiscal or social priority. We have the potential, we simply choose to waste it, ...

@19-

I came in here JUST to say that in Portugal they speak PORTUGESE..not SPANISH, Gwynnie is a stupid bitch and needs to just stop making excuses and own up to what she said, and apologize, and everyone can move on. Denying it and saying that youre "misquoted" is just gonna make people hate you even more, and think that you're a lying bitch who cannot deal with the fallout from your asinine comments. Stupid cunt....but what do you expect from someone who is married to the guy from Coldplay, and named her kids Apple and Moses??

#42:
I notice you are slamming people who post on here. Well, looks like you are posting here, too.
And, if you are googling the Ross Ice Shelf, it goes to show that England really isn't that "intellectually stimulating".

I am off to google tube socks. Perhaps I can be of use later. No wonder you feel that way. After all, you lived in France, the pussies who beg us for help and then bitch at us after we helped them. Pussies.

canada: top notch education at an affordable price, excellent health care, fluency in English and French a standard, one of the best places to live, although recently beaten out by those Scandanavians.
Yes, I'm rambling without any reference to that Paltrow girl, but go Canada. Sure we don't really have an identity as a nation, but do we really need one these days?

and please don't nitpick my punctuation or capitalization, its a comment, not a graduate thesis

I agree with 54. Also, if Gwyn is so disgusted with the American education system, then why doesn't she use her wealth to fund educational programs and become more involved with educational bills? I think if people have the energy to complain, they should do something about it. She's epitomizes the lazy American who cares more about the problems than the solutions to them. Oh well. What can we expect from a misguided high school graduate. At least she acts well and can deflect criticism with a cute smile.

Stupid sodding, snotty, crusty cunt. Of course she is going to say that Americans have nothing to talk about except money and work. If she only hangs around those types, her daddy included (who gave her everything), then that is what she is going to get. But if Mizz Poultry could just get off her f*cking high horse for a second and talk to common folk, typically those that actually work hard to survive and don't spend time sucking daddy's d*ck, then she will get more interesting chat. But go ahead and assume all 300 million Americans are the same, fag! Somebody please drop kick her pasty face for me! I'm done!

Dear Gwyneth Paltrow,

Can you please shut the fuck up? You are a fucking moron. The British are not more intelligent, just because there accents sound "smarter."

Let me tell you a little story... Yesterday, at work, a courier with a British accent came in, wearing a leather jacket from the 80s and carrying a motorcycle helmet, to deliver a package. He was in his forties. Do you think that guy is smarter than most Americans? No. Case closed, based solely on a British courier, delivering a tape to a Hollywood studio.

In closing, (and imagine I'm saying this in a British accent) you are a dumb bugger. I am a smart bloke. Shut the fuck up.

I'm gonna go drink Budweiser, BBQ, watch AMERICAN football, make a bunch of money on Wall Street, fuck a hooker in Vegas and recite the Declaration of Independance...at every public school in the Los Angeles area. Kiss my ass, stay in Britain.

Also, I think Britain is awesome, but not Gwyneth "Fucking Moron" Paltrow.

Generalizations, gotta love 'em.

Yay, the 'fish is back in full force! And I am loving THIS post...

#57: I have RARELY come across a Canadian (French or English-speaking) who is fully bilingual. In fact, The French Canadians' English is often worse than the Fance French's. And the English-speaking Canadians go 'err... French? No hablo....'. You are probably referring to a tiny minority of educated Canadians living in a cosmopolitan city like Toronto. Oh, and I may say this. I lived in Canada long enough.

The English: a hilarious, confused tribe. Lovely people with a great sense of humour, especially where their screwed up politics (including the queen) is concerned. And the country with the highest proportion of PLEBS I have ever come across. But excellent universities, proportionally a high number of them - considering their tiny population size compared to the US. Go figure.

The Europeans in general can't be generalised about (lovely statement, isn't it? *grin*) There are many many many idiots here, there are LOADS of materialists here, loads of workaholics who live to work. And I have had super, intelligent conversations with Americans.

And Paltrow? Ha. One thing I do agree with that has been said here again and again: Her lovely complexion fits in well with her home of choice.

she's not being a hypocrite. she wisened up and realized that the stupid, uncivilized American perceptions of her opinions could make or break her career. Isn't that irony?
Anyways, if intelligence means dedicating your life to smoking, making cheese or wine, losing wars, and being a slave to the EU and UN....I'd rather be a stupid American. We continuously have the most Nobel prize winners. According to Gallup, About half of Americans are currently in the middle of reading a book. If we're stupid sheep, we would have easily fallen for The Guardian (UK) Clark County voter scheme. If we all voted the way Europeans want us to, we'd be voting for the party originally responsible for eugenics, segregation, exacerbation of the Great Depression. The same party is least likely to make policies based on the respective pros and cons or empirical evidence and most likely to make it based on current intellectual trends or cultural sentiment.

Let this photo be a lesson to 60 year old women everywhere.....after a while you have to give up black eyeliner.

And as for the whole intelligent Britts thing, I have 2 words... Benny Hill.

i somewhat agree with her

i'm on gwen's side on this one. ive lived in california and colorado my whole life and last year i lived in england for a few months and never wanted to go back to the USA. it's so much better over there.

The country that unleashed the Spice Girls on the world has no right to claim intellectual superiority over anyone.

And furthermore, her kid's name is Apple. Anyone who names their kids with a Speak-n-Spell doesn't have the right to talk down to anyone.

I'd also like to point out that Germans average the highest IQ levels in Europe and the largest group in the US population, 17%, claims German ancestry. Einstein was a German-American for godssakes.

Ouch.

Being an American married in Scotland and having traveled quite a bit, I agree with 7, 32, 34, 42--The English are generally better-educated and slightly more mannered in their manner of speaking.

HOWEVER...they don't want to do a fucking day's work. They're on holiday practically 3 days of every week, and when they're at work, they're planning their fucking tea. Seriously. You should check out the national holiday schedule for the UK. They have like a dozen weeks of paid vacation a year, in which they accomplish NOTHING but sucking down tea and making their unkept teeth disgusting. (Yeah, the nasty teeth thing is totally 100% true. Fuck. Pick up some fluoride.) ..This is why they're giddy and chatty and way better than Americans at social gab... Their "job" is being well-versed in society.. not actually doing WORK

I like the British, and I think socially they're superior to Americans in conversation and general range of knowledge; but when it comes to work ethic or drive, they rate a big fat ZERO...and that makes them mediocre, at best. Sorry! Get off your fat ass if you want total respect.

This coming from the bitch who named her daughter Apple.

She's your typical liberal who so desperately wants everyone to think she's an intellectual..

#70
Gee, thanks for linking up intellect and genetics, now let's go sterilize all the stupid people before they breed. Especially the ones who can't distinguish between education and intellect. Or maybe just those who hyphenate in a vain attempt to shore up a flawed premise.

Einstein was NOT a German-American - he was German-born and only lived here for 15 years while retaining Swiss citizenship.

I just wanted to point out that "Diario de las Noticias" is not portuguese. In fact the newspaper name is "Diário de Notícias", and this is a quote retrieved from the magazine "NS" that comes with that newspaper (or "Jornal de Notícias") on Saturdays.
Didn't want to be anal, but "Diario de las Noticias" is spanish, and this is not Spain, bitches :P

Just let me add that this is my first comment, and I wanted to say that this is great site! Can't get enough of it :)

What an arse! The name of the newspaper is "Diario de Noticias", by the way

Gwyneth Paltrow is nothing more than an overglorified Paris Hilton...

...except Paris Hilton actually recognizes that she's an idiot.

http://chasingculture.com/liberty/index.php

oh for fuck's sakes. The US has such a fucking "you're for us or against us" attitude. This is why you're all involved in a pointless fucking WAR that's costing billions of dollars, and more importantly - lives.

Like it or not, people CAN dislike your country. People are allowed to have opinions.

#78
You bet, and that's even funnier when people all across America are laughing at Borat...

hei has anyone noticed she said she has to learn more spanish
like...people in portugal TALK IN PORTUGHESE

or did she talk to them in spanish? that's just stupid and she's stupid
but i'm so sorry, she's right about the americans (in her first interview, that is)

Is the bitch mad? England is a giant toilet full of reality show wannabes and kids thinking education is unnecessary because they're going to be a pop star.

A picture of England today

I blame the Welfare State. Poor people used to work in the Big House and keep their mouths shut. Now they get government handouts and think they're as good as the rest of us [shudder]. And don't think you've got it any better in America!

Down with the peasants! They're ruining it for all of us with their nasty white tracksuits and gold-plated jewelry.

(Don't worry about Gwyny. She's so dull we didn't even realise she was here, so we won't send her back unless you really want her)

To be fair us British ARE more intelligent than you Americans. Maybe its all that obesity thats making you stupid...In fact, I would suggest that even the French are more intelligent than you! :P

PS #72 Fuck off, you stupid obese yank, English people do not have bad teeth, thats a complete stereotype!! You live in Scotland, you cannot make judgements about England if you have only seen Scotland. We do not get bladdered on Whiskey every morning like the Scots do. Any in any case, i'd prefer to have bad teeth than weigh 700lbs like you Americans do!!

Go and start another pointless war or something, just don't take our troops with you. fucking idiots.

Diario de las noticias??? That's spanish not portuguese, you ignorant fuck. It's Diário de Noticias FYI. Get it right. Portugal doesn't speak spanish! :P

errr.. #82 (and 83)... Americans IS the most obese nation in the world, but UK is SECOND (and catching up fast). Must be all the stodgy food and fish and chips ;)

ooops - America (as in US) and not Americans...

If spanish speaking Portugese editors think it is interesting to consider Americans to be dumber than Brits, what does that say about the opinion of England?

She needs to keep a foot in her mouth to distract attention from that god awful fugly face of hers.Idiot bitch.

http://celebriteaze.blogspot.com

Did you ever notice that when celebrities say something "negative" that backfires on them, they always have to come up with a contradicting statement? Sheesh...why say anything in the first place?

She needs to go back to Hogwarts for another semester. Fucking uneducated witch.

I wish that someone would come along and point out that Porugese people don't speak Spanish. Won't someone PLEASE point that out every 4 or 5 posts?

Portugese people speak Portugese.
Gwenyth Paltrow is a stuck-up, anti-American twat.
SoupaSara is a fat, dimwitted, toothless British prostitute.
And I can't wait until a fully fueled 747 takes out Big Motherfuckin' Ben and 3,000 Brits in jolly old fuckin' Londontowne and see how you fuck heads feel then. Cheerio o', assholes!

MirandaWilde should have stayed in France where bourgeois white trash scum are appreciated.

And give me an American educated and trained physician ANYDAY over one from any other part of the world.

Being a brit I have to agree with 72. The british work ethic is SHIT. The majority are lazy bastards (pronounced BARSTARDS) who moan about doing the work they are supposedly paid for!

I've worked with loads of different nationalities and i have to say Americans can be classed as 'Perky', Canadians are bloody hard workers but the best have to be the Polish. They work like donkeys (AKA asses) and you can pay them peanuts.

Literally peanuts - the excitement and gratitued on their little faces is worth every shell

I do love my country though!!
We may have bought the spice girls to the world but you have the honour of producing Paris, Lohan and Britney!! Oh and not forgetting the genetic marvel that is K-fed!!

I bet you are all so proud!

Hey go easy on Gwenyth. She played a great headless corpse in se7en... it's not her fault they cut that scene out.

I love the UK and have many friends there, but let's get one thing straight: your accent (I know we have the accent) doesn't automatically make you more sophisticated, and we took your language and made it better. Yea Americans sure are stupid... so stupid we managed to control most of the world's economic and scientific engines. What a bunch of fucking morons we are!

1. Having travelled in Europe and being a big fan of travel t.v. show I really have no idea why Americans are considered fat. I've seen SHITLOADS of fat people all over. A way larger percentage than I see on the streets in the US.
2. Since the US is chock full of Europeans I'm trying to figure out the logic that they became less intelligent after crossing the ocean to live here. Please exlpain the science there.
3. So the rest of the world is upset that a 'fat, lazy, stupid' bunch of people are so successfull and dominant? Waaaaaaaaaaah!
4. For those that think the English sound intelligent, you haven't watched much of their television. Only the upper classes don't sound like they are illiterate.

If Americans are so stupid then how do you explain the FACTS that all the science/technical nobel prizes went to America this year, American universities have far more nobel laureates even after adjusting for population disparity, all the brains in foriegn countries tend to immigrate to the US and of course, America is by far, the richest country on earth (Except Luxembourg, a tiny country).

It's Diario de Noticias.

Diario de las Noticias would only exist in Spain.

So, err, Superfish also apparently doesn't know the difference between Portuguese and Spanish :P

What a load of old tosh..
You get a large number of work shy lazy bastards where-ever you go. These people are often overweight, un-educated and breed like rabbits... meaning that pretty soon we will be over-run by morons on benefits, wherever you are from, be it the US or Europe or any other place for that matter.
Intelligent people do not tend to have more children than they can afford and therefore the population is dwindling.

The difference in our population size needs to be taken into consideration before making such judgments. Neither country is superior to the other. They are just different. People talk about how Britain is older and more sophisticated, which is nice. However, the US has a very diverse population as well as a diverse landscape.

Also, I'd like to add that Ms. Paltrow dropped out of college to purse acting, so she isn't necessarily an expert on intelligence.

Either have the balls to stand by what you say (however you said it) or don't say anything.

I agree with some of what she says, but she needn't go as far as saying Americans are less intelligent than the Brits. And while the Brits might not seem as concerned about work and money, the class system in Britian is far more rigid and established than it is in America. Any person born into poverty can be a millionaire by 21 in America. That's not as easy to do in Britian.

Of course, being a millionaire in America is a half-millionaire in England, so it all evens out. :)

#56-
Maybe I spoke too soon. Why, all this time I had no idea that I could engage in a conversation with someone who calls himself "TurdFerguson," who would jump to conclusions about my intentions without first attempting to clarify, and whose idea of witty repartee is to say "I'm off to google tube socks."
Maybe Americans are capable of intelligent conversation after all. I guess I have to backpedal, too.
But before I do that, let me just point out that what you're engaging in is the same sort of lightning-fast, reflexive, self-righteous, self-defensive, thoughtless judgement demonstrated by the Bush admin and the congressmen who voted that we (and yes, just to clarify, I am an American myself) should go to war. This kind of consciousness is what fueled the effort for the U.S. to go kill innocent people in Iraq and led to the deaths of thousands of American soldiers, and a ongoing daily bloodbath.

http://www.circinfo.com/glossary/uncirc.jpg

Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Hudson can kiss my ass. They're both spoiled rotten hypocrites.
I'm amazed at how tolerant Americans are of these assholes. Why would someone want to support such trash by going to their movies?

Miranda--shut the fuck up you yellow fucking terrorist-sypmathizing fucking cunt. Don't you know that it's in poor taste to talk shit on soldiers? And talk about killing innocent people? Do you know what a fucking newspaper is you ignorant bitch? One of my neighbors was beheaded by those cowardly fucks you worship--Paul Johnson--a few years ago. It's the fucking Iraqi insurgents that are killing innocent people -- get it straight. When a US Military mission takes out civilians, it's a horrible error, but terrorists and insurgents AIM -- you hear me-- AIM for innocents. So shut your fucking trap and get lost you stupid bleeding heart piece of fucking dog shit. You aren't fit to lick the boots of an American soldier.

I bet you feel sorry for the animals down in Gitmo,too. Yeah, go ahead and walk through that place and spread your love....they'll rip you apart with their bare hands, that's how they show appreciation for bleeding heart Americans. Idiot.

102 - order yourself another fat free bean curd chai latte frappachino and shut the fuck up....

If you don't like America, leave. You think this country is so bad? Go spend some real time in a country like China. Then you will see what the reality of our country is. Despite what asshat runs the country, this place draws more people that any place in the world. Because NO WHERE else are asswipes like you allowed to spout anti-government bullshit. And how did you get that right? From the soldiers you despise who walk the walls, died in the wars, and spend the sleepless nights protecting your right to be an America hater.

Don't spout about consciousness without doing some introspection you self absorbed fuckwit.

Once again: the Portuguese newspaper is called "Diario de Noticias". Portugal and Spain are two completely different countries with two different languages. Yes 91, Portuguese people don't speak Spanish and Spanish people don't even understand Portuguese :D

Hey, Miranda, do you know that you would have been brutally beaten to death, and probably everyone in your family shot, if you were an Afghan woman living under Taliban rule and you tried to talk shit on your leaders from under your BURKA? IF YOU LIKE THEM SO MUCH GO LIVE THERE! I'll look for your obit a month later.

#91-lol

#102- I hate to be one of those "If you don't like it then leave" folks but no, really, please leave. You don't deserve the free speech our government and soldiers have so graciously bestowed upon you. Millions of 'innocent people' have died over the past century alone so that you can run your trashy little mouth. Let me guess, your hero is murderous, drunkard Teddy Kennedy too? Fucking cunt.

#s 105, 106, 107, 109, and 110-
Thank you all so much for proving my point that Americans lack the ability to engage in intelligent conversation. I couldn't have proven the point better myself.
Please, don't let my comments upset you. Go back and enjoy your Budweisers.

Why all the hate? Everyone's reaction is so TYPICALLY American! Rah-rah, big deal. I am married to a Brit and I also LOVE America, but she's absolutely right about our collective mind-set and limited conversational skills. Ms. Paltrow is refreshingly intelligent and honest.
The pimple? Are you guys serious? Your petty childishness illustrates what she is saying perfectly! Go USA!

like I said, bitch, you like them all so much go fucking live with them. Go live in Baghdad. Go live in Burma. go live in China. See how much freedom you get. Prove your point? We didn't prove your point you half-witted communist slut.

To be fair us British ARE more intelligent than you Americans. Maybe its all that obesity thats making you stupid...

not so fast there sarah:

Britain's waistlines are growing
Around one third of adults and a fifth of all children will be obese, statistics from the Health Survey for England - published by the Department of Health - showed.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml.../08/25/ufat.xml

If the only topics of conversations you idiots (112 and Miranda the Commie) think Americans engage in revolve around Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton, then perhaps it's the circles in which you associate....did you two rocket scientists ever think of that?

Miranda - LMAO - You spout off about "the effort for the U.S. to go kill innocent people in Iraq" and you think you have some superior conversation skills? You don't even have a grasp on the reality of war much less of true current events in Iraq. 150,000 US troops have not been marching around killing innocent Iraqi's. Plenty of Iraqi's, Syrian's, Saudi's, and Iranian's have.

You are a complete idiot for even posting a retort regarding the intelligence of those who are obviously your intellectual superiors... Not that is matters since you are obviously delusional...

So go eat a pound of shit you Commie whore....

mmm....anyone know where a commie whore can buy a pound of shit for eating? Do I have to go all the way to Burma?
This is all very good advice, thank you all very much.

One more thing...SoupaSarah...
The correct grammar would be... "To be fair WE British ARE more intelligent"...

But way to go on being more intelligent and all...

Miranda-Go read an Ann Coulter book. You'll get a whole new idea of what truth and intelligence is.

i love how the brits accuse americans of being ignorant and dumb with their own ill-informed, bigoted opinions.

nice one.

miranda, if you were intellectually capable of intelligent conversation, you would have realized that the only point you proved is that you have the logic skills of a retarded chimpanzee.

Okay, hold it right there.
You can call me a commie whore. You can tell me to eat a pound of shit. You can tell me to go to China or Burma, and you can accuse me of being disrespectful of the troops, when, in fact, I was not. (I do need to point out that expressing my concern that thousands of them have died is *not* putting down the troops.)
But telling me to go read Ann Coulter and mentioning her name in the same sentence as the words "truth and intelligence" (except for the sentence "Ann Coulter has no truth or intelligence") is going way too far.

I have plenty of issues with my country, comes with being American. I abhor our current administration, but I can't muster that kind of ire on a Paltrow thread... sorry folks.

mirandawilde, you got ate.

I really wanted to come up with a terse, clever rejoinder to the comments of this pretentious bitch, but I got too distracted by that gigantic zit on her forehead and lost my train of thought. God, how repulsive. Ironically, I think my lack of focus proves Gwyneth's point, sort of like how she was so focused on making asinine movies like "Shallow Hal" that she got distracted from the fact that she's a B-grade Audrey Hepburn wannabe, and that Coldplay is fourth-rate rip-off of Radiohead.

Miranda, You did put down the troops, you pig. What Americans do you think are over there killing all of those "innocent" people, as you put it? The politicians? The USC Marching Band? The Rotary Club? Who? You accused our soldiers of killing innocent people, which is murder, so yeah, Mental Giant, you DID insult our troops. Then, just like a bleeding heart, fence-straddling, liberal fuck that you are you then try to defend them by showing your mock-concern for their safety. You can't even argue your point logically. You make me sick.

YOU MEAN THE U.S. NOT AMERICA MORON. NOT THE SAME THING. ONE'S A COUNTRY THE OTHER AN ENTIRE CONTINENT. WHEN WILL YOU CHIMPS LEARN THAT.

#126 - I think your caps lock key is stuck. Ask danielle what happens when you fail to get that fixed. And no, it is American. Canadians do not call themselves American, neither do Mexicans (except when ICE shows up).

camabron, far left, between the shift and tab keys, the key that says "Caps Lock". Now you can go back to calling people "morons".

p0nk, maybe you should send him a Visio chart with a complete QWERTY layout. It might help...

#125-
I am not putting down the troops. The point that I made in comment #102 is that is the *American* (yes, American, merriamwebster.com's #3 definition is "a citizen of the US")
consciousness, which is self-defensive, self-righteous, etc. that fueled the war. I am referring to the *collective* American consciousness, which includes all of us. All of us in this country who allowed our monkey president and his crew to start this war have blood on our hands, including the blood of dead American soldiers.
I realize that the troops are doing the job they have been paid to do. I have a nephew in the military who has been in Iraq twice so far and I am very concerned for his safety and the safety of others who serve there.
You and your black-and-white view of the world make *me* sick.

miranda, go vomit elsewhere. we're tired of reading it.

Coldplay's music sucks nowadays - has got much too commercial, and all songs sound alike (namely like someone is pinching whatsisname's nuts). Paltrow's nonsensical utterings are merely a bid to get back in the papers in order to get her hubby some publicity, good or not - we all know from the shining example of paris, britney and co. that bad stuff gets you more publicity. So in the end, well done, Gwyneth! We're talking about you again!

Ponk-
"Get off my Web site by sundown?"
Now, that's American. That makes me feel nostalgic for John Wayne and Ronald Reagan. I bet Bush and Cheney wish they were there now, too.
Again, all of you, I just want to thank you for helping to demonstrate my original point.
Signed,
Your favorite terrorist-loving communist slut

not sure who you think you're quoting. typical liberal commie, setting up straw men to hack down with your irrational self-important rhetoric.

THIS statement comes from someone who starred in "View from the Top?"

Puuuleeeze.

How can anyone take anything this air-headed fool says seriously?

I'd have more confidence in a statement by K-Fed than this overpriviledged princess of stupidity.

So we're uncivilized here in the States? If we're so uncivilized then how come last year when I atteneded a Manchester United football match was I only allowed to drink BUDWEISER during halftime and only by where the vendors are selling them??? They don't trust you bunch of hooligans enough to even allow ADULTS to drink alcohol in the stands of a sporting match.

Sophistication at its finest! Fack off limeys! Football is about the only thing you schmucks can do right.

bitch only has a high school education. very "civilized." and didn't seem too concerned with capitalism while making millions shooting shitty movies that contributed to "uncivilized" america. eat a bag of shit!

#33, thanks!

I just spewed potatoes across my office!

I thought I was a typical liberal commie bastard, but mirandawilde just set me straight. I am off to vote GOP now folks... what..? Oh I have to wait until election day..? Well, I'm going to volunteer for Focus On The Family's egg zygote implantation program to save me some kids... what..? I have to be a chick..? Fuck! Seriously mirandawilde, stop regurgitating yesterday's class lesson and have an original thought. College kids annoy the fuck out of me.

my bad.....#35. You are the culprit!

ah yes, the superior intelligence of the Brits strikes again... timely article.
Briton fined for relieving self on famed Latvian monument

lmao rich, well done.

I'm not basing this on any hard research, but my opinion is that a lot of the condescencion the British (and a lot of Europeans) have toward Americans is not so much because the British are culturally, socially and intellectually superior and we come off as boors in comparison, but because Europeans have for at least the last sixty years had their self esteems bitchslapped by the fact that year after year their influence and relevance on the world stage of economics and politics is inferior to that of the United States and even Japan and the rest of Asia.

Europe used to be more important to the world, in that it was the arbiter of basically everything important that occurred on the world stage, now it takes second (third?) seat to the U.S. and even in that role it depends more than it wants to on the "inferior" Americans' power and influence.

Europe is a fallen giant, and so it's natural they hate on America and wish that we too will fall right on our faces. Europeans feast on the comfort food of alleged cultural superiority as a mitigating factor to make themselves feel better for being weaklings and nontentities.

Also, I think that a country like Britain that at its height of colonial power raped and gutted over a quarter of the world for its land and riches should never go around pooh-poohing America's global committments, however misguided those committtments may be.

Is it too hard for some of you to spell PORTUGUESE correctly?

#139,
What exactly in my comments would you characterize as "yesterday's class lesson?"
And after reading all of the posts here, you single mine out as devoid of original thought?
Did you hear the phrases "stop regurgitating yesterday's class lesson and have an original thought; College kids annoy the fuck out of me" somewhere yesterday and decide you would use them somewhere, anywhere, regardless of their relevance?
I'm just curious...

Bugger off, Gwynnie (or G-whiney). And thank you for reminding us and the U.S. for the reason that we left that continent in the first place.

Miranda, do you happen to know anyone named Danielle by any chance?

Since we're on the topic of generalising: To everyone who loved using the Nobel prize as an indicator of who is the more intelligent nation - UK or USA: yes, the US has won more Nobel prizes than any other nation. But that is not really surprising, considering it has 300 million brains. The UK has only a fifth of that (60 million) - and has won A LOT of Nobel prizes. The numbers of brains are greatly diminished by all the Irish and Scottish whose favourite past time is over-imbibing in alloholl (thereby effectively killing grey matter), the Welsh whose favourite past time is exactly the same as the New Zealanders', the English classist society which consists of a HEAP of low-class scum who would never even get close to a university cafeteria nevermind writing a thesis. So now. Let the debate continue *grin*.

"Quite, Gwynnie. Do shove it straight up your arse."

"And have a nice day...may you discover a dead mouse in your steak and kidney pie, whilst guffawing at the table with your intellectually superior new English friends, and snark in your phony British accent."

How nice that Gwynnie now only has to "work to live" not like millions of other people who have mortgage payments and kids to feed while she gets paid millions of dollars to make shitty movies.

Cunt.

Americans have a good work ethic because they don't have a government to take care of them should they decide to take six weeks off a year. The United States is most definitely the "Land of Opportunity", but it's also "Every Man for Himself" in these here parts.

#145 - No, cupcake, it just seemed to suit you. But nice try. And of course by nice try, I mean blow me and bruise the back of your fucking throat. Now that I think of it, you're right. We Americans are assholes... that is until someone needs our boys to bail them out of some idiocy they've gotten themselves into...

Oh. Thanks for the clarification.
Another typical tactic adopted by the Bush administration and used to the tune of thousands of dead people and billions of ill-spent dollars - bullying when someone doesn't agree with you.
"Blow me and bruise the back of your fucking throat."
Now that's some intelligent conversation.
Hold it, everyone, I must go and re-think my original point, considering all of this truly interesting and stimulating American conversation.

okay, UNCLE! yaddah yaddah yaddah, Jesus Christ, Just shut the fuck up. If this is such tedium for you, then stop responding. Take up knitting, go hug a tree, go watch TV.... something but just shut the flying fuck up already. Jesus you are like a rash.

Interesting how people spew about how free America is, yet anyone who criticizes her gets told to go live in China with the terrorists. Ah, the joys of faulty logic.

I'm a Brit at a top graduate school in the US. The guys (and gals) I go to school with are just as smart as any at my top undergraduate school in the UK.

There's a portion of American society that doesn't take criticism too well. The problem is all the yahoos who, at the mere whiff of dissent from their world view, the idea that maybe the United Staes of America isn't absolutely the best place in the world on all counts, start jumping up and down, red in the face, screaming about bad teeth, the queen and how much money, power and influence Amer-ka has (note: not usually them personally). It's unfortunate that its these yahoos who feel compelled to post their thoughts and opinions all over the interweb, thus perpetuating the stereotype that all Americans are dumbfucks.

So, in conclusion, being American does not make you dumb per se. Spewing flag-waving, jingoist bullshit at the first hint of a different point of view does.

Hey what can I say, blowjobs make me laugh. Look tootsie pop, you want intelligent banter, wrong fucking site. But if I may, a few suggestions:

1 - Come up with original points, unswayed by cnn.com or foxnews
2 - Understand that when people (like myself) start being juvenile with you, it's either to get a rise (which is working) or to tell you your point is stupid, shut the fuck up (which is not working yet)
3 - Vote and encourage your college buddies to vote, or shut the fuck up. If that doesn't work, rally and write your congressperson. If that doesn't work either, well, you may just be wrong...

I'd take you a lot more seriously if this wasn't a Gwenyth fucking Paltrow thread. Are you upset with the current state of politics? Go volunteer. Leave parroting to the birds. And thank you for reprinting my "Blow me line", just make sure you give me the proper credit when you use it. Your "Another typical tactic adopted by the Bush administration " is lost on me, becuase everyone here already knows I can't stand those fuckers. Better yet, go serve in the military and stop being a pansy. People like you make me pray they bring the draft back.

#72, are they poor though? if they can have fun and not starve, then I'm so there! i agree with #78 and #94 (esp. about the paris, lohan, britney part). to a non-american and non-british like me, britain: culture; u.s.: george w. bush. it's a no-brainer!
whether gwyneth said that or not is immaterial. people should be allowed to dislike the U.S. that's not being anti-american. fuck, that's being honest about having preferences.
and some of the "pro-american" comments here (for example, the one that mentions her zit) just confirm what gwyneth allegedly said.

154-- You're missing the point of us telling her to go somewhere else...we tell her to do that so she can see for herself that there are places in this world with NO FREEDOM, Miss Asshole-come-lately, and then maybe she'd appreciate the freedoms she does have here in the U.S.

And if you think our grad schools suck so bad then I have a very simple solution for you.....don't go to them. Stay in the U.K. Seriously, you're not a citizen, you can go home if you don't think you're getting your money's worth at our academic institutions. Why did you choose an American university if you find them substandard?

154--and another thing, we're not shitting on someone's "world view" we just don't like people shitting all over our country. It's called sticking up for yourself. Totally different.

#157 "And if you think our grad schools suck so bad then I have a very simple solution for you.....don't go to them. "

Did you even read my post? Where did I say your grad schools suck?

I'm a Brit at a top graduate school in the US. The guys (and gals) I go to school with are just as smart as any at my top undergraduate school in the UK.

What that says is American students at the top American GRADUATE schools-- the post- Baccalaureate level -- are only as smart as the students at the undergrad level in the UK. You're comparing Grad students to undergraduates. Or, perhaps you meant to compare apples to oranges?

She should have just stuck by her words. Now the "I didn't mean a word of it" folly starts. How predictable.

#160 That's funny. Pure paranoia on your part, methinks.

My point was that I have just as high a regard for my peers at graduate school in the US as I did for my peers at undergraduate level in the UK. No negative subtext about the quality of the student body was intended.

I'm not sure how to make it clearer than that, but let me know if you'd like me to further elaborate.

#153-
Again, are you saying "get off my Web site by sundown?"
I'm sorry, I thought I was exercising my right to free speech. Isn't that what the troops have been dying for, so that I could have free speech? I've been told that so many times I guess I should believe it, and I guess I should exercise that right.
It begs the question, why don't *you* stop reading and stop posting? Are you expecting me to stop just because you and your bullying friends are giving me a hard time? I think more liberals should fight back in whatever venue and whatever form seems necessary. Enough people have died, enough money has been wasted, enough social programs have been cancelled to pay for this war to show that the BushCo, bullying way of communicating and operating doesn't work, and the early November elections show that people are ready for a change.
#155-
cnn.com and other like organizations post headline about Britney's divorce alongside news of social and political importance. I see no reason why I shouldn't debate politics on an entertainment Web site. In fact, I think people should debate politics, environmental issues, and social issues wherever they feel the urge, because obviously things aren't working out so well for everyone on the planet right now. There are about 1 billion comfortable people and 5 billion more who are in suffering because of poverty, natural catastrophes, and American foreign policy that has misused so much money that could have gone to help those in need. So, I think we all should do a little more debating, and hey, maybe even work on some solutions.

Nice summation, #154. This I agree on. Many Americans brag about "freedom" but when someone exercises freedom of speech criticising America, they throw a ridiculous hissy fit and tell you to shut the fuck up. And they resurrect that lame excuse of "well, they shouldn't have said it in a foreign country.". People who can't take the criticism are going to bitch no matter where she said it. As for Paltrow herself, she should either stand by what she said, or shut the fuck up.

fucking trolls

paranoia? no, just used to people like you who come to the United States to take advantage of the best things the U.S. has to offer and then say disparaging things about this country. And I don't need some piss head grad student to elaborate to me on anything....you're talking to a U of P grad, junior, ivy league, so stuff it. Perhaps you should formulate your sentences in a way that isn't so confusing to the reader.

And now for some intriguing & highly intellectual British conversation:

"Geeves, please make my automobile ready for me as I must meet the lads down at the pub for some pints and a footie match"

"Sir, will your wife be joining you?"

"Not tonight, old chap, we conversed briefly about possibly sheduling intercourse next month and it made her positively exhAUSted".

"Well done, sir, well done. arhararhararhar"

"mmmmm, yyyes. Indeed. arhararhararhar"

(throw in some random "bloody ell's" if you must).

bores.

"get off my Web site by sundown"....do you think that's clever and bears repeating? It was stupid as hell the first time we suffered through it. I'm just saying you're annoying as fuck. You can blather all you want, but I'm merely begging you to go do it somewhere else because I'm sick of your retarded statements. It has nothing at all to do with the First Ammendment....but everything to do with you being the human equivalent to a canker sore.

Biatcho - you forgot about all those "arses" and "wankers" they abndy about...

mirandawilde - You need to accept the fact that sometimes your well-intentioned, type-written diarrhea is just not appropriate everywhere. I've gotten into political debates here before, but each time I do I remind myself (or am reminded) that this is not the place for it. Do you walk into church and start screaming "FREEDOM OF SPEEEEECH!!!"? No, you wait for the right forum. Don't lecture any of the adults here on world affairs; we all pay taxes (except for grad students) that help pay for your education. Go and read some Chomsky, maybe a little then balance it with Pat Buchanan's latest, and come back with an original thought. I think I read all that crap you were spewing in the letters section of the NYTimes last week... the soldiers are not dying for your right to speak freely on the Fish... just to make sure you don't get sniped when walking through any international airport where you should normally feel safe.

#168-
No, it's nearly so clever as your "canker sore" statement, which obviously bears repeating. In terms of cleverness, I know all who read this will see that truly you are the winner of the cleverness contest today.
But I have to ask *why* are you begging *me* to go somewhere else?
Can I suggest that you follow your own advice from comment #153-
"If this is such tedium for you, then stop responding. Take up knitting, go hug a tree, go watch TV.... something but just shut the flying fuck up already."

#166 "you're talking to a U of P grad, junior, ivy league, so stuff it. "

I feel your shame.

#169-
The guy who wrote "blow me and bruise the back of your throat" is going to lecture me about what's appropriate?
That is the best laugh I've had in a long, long time.
Thank you.

British people laugh? Get the shit out of here!

I do know for a fact that only British people can fly! (1 million pounds to whoever knows what that's from).

171--you feel my shame? is that sarcasm? and what fine graduate school's doorstep to you darken, oh great one? C'mon, honestly, where do you go to school?

Miranda....honestly, I think you're drunk.

miranda, i only assume that i speak for others when i say that i'm begging you to go somewhere else with your political rhetoric because you make me want to stab myself in the eye with scissors. This forum is not the place for your "debate". maybe you should try some place more intelligent, like Benny Hill.

Or, Miranda, to add to the suggestion of my esteemed colleague, Ponk, a more fitting venue, like, Chuck E. Cheese or The Brookings Institute.

...i think disney channel is looking for political commentators as well.

ponk.....Disney.....nnn....too....cerebral in this case. But I think the Hilary Clinton is looking for a few good bearded ladies.

lol jrz, yes i believe you found miranda's true life calling.

#172 - That's twice you've quoted me... my check better be in the mail. That comment is appropriate for this site, and I was just trying to help a young'n out, but fuck it, you sem to enjoy the vulgarity better anyway. As I once told a Star Maker, go blow a horse... while it's taking a piss. I bet that blows your skirt up, doesn't it? Good luck aging... I've seen the older women from over there... not cute.

This thread is getting far too cerebral for me - I am sick of hearing about the gulf war, I would rather talk about Britney's nasty, flappy little fuckhole and the snail trail she left on Paris' car seat...now THAT'S intelligent!!

So I am off to find some truly retarded conversation, hopefully something with Paris, Britney or Lindsey in it...

So there...

I really have to get to work, so I'll have to say good-bye now, but in light of all that has been said here, I think I'll pull a Gwyneth and retract my statement that Americans don't engage in interesting conversations. RichPort, jrzmommy, ponk, and the rest, it's been ever so enlightening, and clearly I've been proven wrong.
RichPort, I'll think of you fondly every time I tell someone to "blow me and bruise the back of your throat."
Again, thank you.

This perpetual myth that people in England and the rest of Europe are such geniuses and everyone in America are morons is ridiculous. There are intelligent people everywhere.

I've been to England and parts of Europe. It's not like everyone there is walking around in togas discoursing on Plato and nuclear physics. There are plenty of regular, largely clueless people there just trying to live out there day-to-day lives. (If Europeans are such advanced geniuses, why is it that they continue import American crap entertainment and culture by the ton? I could hardly get away from MTV when I was in Europe even when I tried. The Santa Clause 3 and Jackass 2 have been top grossing films in the UK recently.)

Maybe there is a higher percentage of intelligent people in Europe. Maybe not. Depends on how you define intelligence. All I know is that I detect notes of resentment and a desperate need to feel superior whenever Europeans start talking about how much more intelligent they are.

holy hermaphrodites, batman!

#182 - I'm glad we could help. I bet you give great head, beacause you're filled with so much anger... and angry girls give the best head.

Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya, douchebag!

Oh, biatcho (173) you owe me a million.

Bob from Mr. Show. Great episode.

#183 "If Europeans are such advanced geniuses, why is it that they continue import American crap entertainment and culture by the ton?"

It serves the same purpose in Europe as it does in the US - keeping the docile masses from rioting.

I agree with you about a desperate need to feel superior in some quarters of Europe. But it cuts the other way as well. I think this thread demonstrates widely held beliefs of cultural and intellectual superiority on one side, and political, moral and dental superiority on the other.

Can't we all just get along?

#187 - Ok, I sincerely love you 21st Century Digital Boy. Mr Show fans are few & far between and are the greatest people on the planet.

Let's hang at the Altered State of Drugachussetts - "As Mayor of Drugachussetts, I deem this pizza to be... AWESOME!".

I can't see any reason why Spanish is even an issue here. The rag that interviewed her was Portuguese? Nuff said.

#190...

Right on Nutz, here is a newsflash for you Gwynnie...
PORTUGAL - People there speak POR-TU-GUESE
SPAIN - Please speak SP-AN-ISH

Reading this whole thread I'm amazed by how well Miranda held up here.

well done madam

We went easy on her... it was busy at work today.

Damn. I feel like I missed all the fun.

Jrzmommy, Bravo and well done! I love your fire women.

As for Whinny�s comments on the superiority of Britain�s intelligence, I guess she has never watched Princess Nikki or listened to Jade Goody (try to) theorize on world politics. Spend two minutes watching these two jackasses and then tell me again about the advance superiority of British intelligence. Or it was probably that jackass who put a firecracker up his ass and had to be hospitalized a few weeks ago that persuaded Whinny about Britain superior intellect.

I am also guessing based on her statement regarding Britain�s civility, that she has never walked on any of the numerous high streets after a dinner out during the weekend. When it becomes lager-lout hell. The violence, the screaming, the continuous chanting of Ing-a-land, Ing-a-land, repeat at the top of your lungs until vomiting or passing out ensues, and all the flashing of tits and asses (trust me it is not always from those you would want to see.) just exudes civility. I am also guessing due to all that British civility, the fact that the British are looked down upon across every major European resort from Mallorca to Ibiza and Kos to Ayia Napa has nothing to do with their infamous loutish behaviour.

To all those whingers out there who spew continuously about the aggressive nature of America. Read the article on what the French like to get up to in African countries when nobody is looking. http://www.fuckfrance.com/topic/2375189/1/France/French-bomb-Central-African-rebels.html&replies=21

I still fucking hate Ann Coulter.

I usually stay out of these 'debates' because I can't stop laughing and I'm an 'f'in' foreigner.
Good luck to Mr. Gates and although I have American relatives etc., I'm afraid this was what Gwen and Miranda are on about...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Dailymirror.jpg

Everyone has an opinion. I think the sad part is that she's got to be so afraid to express it. I guess that's part of the job when you're an actor. It IS a popularity contest.
But as far as the comments... who cares? It's just an opinion.

I don't care a bit if Gwyneth Paltrow likes England better than America, but she doesn't have to be a stupid, obnoxious bitch about it. Make that a stupid, obnoxious, back-pedaling bitch....geeez, Gwyneth, have the courage to stand by your convictions without all the doesn't-fool-anyone babbling about your American pride.

I like what #33 said. Hee hee.

Heh. I think this is funny. Some guy on Fox was saying she should be banned from the country for her opinion. When did America get so fucking touchy? I'm American, always have been, and I got no problem with this. Gwen doesn't like America? That's fine with me.

I love the people going, "Then leave America and give back all the American money you made!!" Get a grip. If you don't like Gwen, don't pay for her next movie.

The only stupid thing here is when the celebs back-pedal and say they were taken out of context. Like, "Shitsburg" and "Sugar tits" are SOOO ambigious in their meanings. Ha.

#200
I agree - for a country that was founded on dissent and one's right to exercise it we can have amnesia quite frequently. Where would America as a nation have been if Britain had said "love it or leave it" and we just sat back, dummied up and claimed George III took our remarks out of context?

jrzmommy and Rich...I think I love you both.

#189 Biatcho - Here's some of that love right back at ya! I got to see Bob and Dave live on their Hooray for America! tour in Madison, WI. They had Lincoln doing a driveby busting a cap in slavery's ass. It was awesome. Rendezvous at Altered State of Drugachussetts it is. Let us also remain united in our hatred for hippies.

#188 Tiffin - Agreed, delusions of superiority abound on both sides of the pond. It's just that I keep hearing this particular version of it from the European side that it irritates me. Either way, I think we can both agree that Gwyneth needs to seriously STFU.

jrzmommy @125...
YOMANK!
have you ever hung out with the USC marching band?
i have. anything's possible.
watch out for tuba section. seriously.

Mirandawilde,
answer this one, why are Brits plain and ugly looking?

True about their teeth, well look at the Queens dead mother for example. Her teeth looked like they were dipped and marinated in shit, hit a few times with a pick axe, and dipped and marinated in more shit for a good 90 days.

#203 Agreed.

As an afterthought, I'll leave the last words to the legendary Mr. Bill Hicks.

“…I was asked, ‘Are you proud to be an American,’ and I was like, ‘I don’t know. I didn’t have a lot to do with it, you know. My parents fucked there, that’s about all... I hate patriotism. In fact, that’s how we could stop patriotism, I think. Instead of putting stars and stripes on our flag, we should put pictures of our parents fucking. Gather round that flag and see your dad hunched over your mom’s four-by-four butt. See if any boot rally mentality can circle round that fucking image. God…damn, I’m out of here! Fuck it…Let’s go garden.”

Gee, last time I checked they speak PORTUGESE is Portugal, not seventh grade spanish. Where's your cultural prowess now Gwyneth?!!!!

#208. No, they don't either. They speak PORTUGUESE. And thanks for the update, we all had absofuckinglutely no idea. Thank God you can along at the eleventh hour plus one and clued us all in.

#201
there is a massive difference between dissent and just spouting bigoted stereotypes. don't get me wrong- i enjoy watching celebutards like our gwyneth embarass themselves, but when an entire group of people gets unfairly labelled by one of their own, it's a bit irritating.

#209 sexybitch - Yeah, seriously! These people, so eager to get in and post at the end of a couple of hundred messages, not reading what's gone before, assuming that NO ONE in the last two hundred posts has pointed out that they speak Portuguese in Portugal and Spanish in Spain.

What fucking insight.

#210
I quite agree, as you can see from an earlier post regarding that eugenics-minded idiot. I think dissing your country based on dinner conversation you've enjoyed in the UK and making broad assumptions based on that just shows how shallow she is, and she should've kept it to herself. She probably has a very skewed idea of what the average dinner party conversation is outside of South Kensington; if it didn't concern macrobiotics, she might be shocked and rethink that "civilized" comment again.

I'd rather debate cultural differences rather than fight about which country weighs more - it's a silly red herring argument. I'm an American but I've also been to school in England and know that both nations have weaknesses and strengths - and that if we cop to what they are we'll be the better for it.

#211
Seriously, I just couldn't stand it any more. Do the reading, people.

BTW, what's for lunch?

It must be time for Miranda to go cruising for johns.
I've been reading a long time, and I must say I enjoy reading jrzmommy, RichPort, and (where the hell is he) Papa Hot Nuts.
Anyway, just to clarify for Miranda (since she's, um, busy right now)....
A) This is a celeb bashing site. If for some reason you love K-Fed, Britney, Gwyneth, feel free to STFU.
B) No one likes you.
C) You're far from intelligent.
D) Maybe I'm a girl. In fact, since you pointed me out to be a boy; and we are pretty sure you were wrong about most things, I am damn sure I am a girl. And a hot one.

And, I understand that you have your tongue so far up Gwyneth's ass you can french her, but try to focus and listen to jrzmommy.

Apparently, this conversation is so intellectually stimulating that you continued it. Kudos for hypocrisy, Miranda!

Here are some of those intelligent, civilized Brits sharing their superior culture with the Germans during the 2006 World Cup:

http://img.dailymail.co.uk/img/galleries/stuttgart/chairsPA_350x250.jpg

It's strange how the people who moan about the other countries shortcomings or take the piss have never traveled outside of their own country let alone spent any time with its' citizens.

Most Americans dig up Austin fucking Powers as an example of looks. #53 thinks being uncut is a sign of lesser intelligence. No, posting shit like that is a sign of lesser intelligence.

Most Brits think all Americans own a gun, are obese and voted for Bush. They sterotype American tourists as being obnoxious fashion disasters, yet pay no attention to the ear screeching eysores that many are when they travel overseas. Many believe they are more cultured as they own a passport and travel. Son, going to Ibiza or Shagaluf does not make you cultured or well traveled. That simply means you are having an extended weekend of binge drinking with better weather trying to fuck the moose in the next hotel room. Most Americans you meet are friendly and are always interested about life in the UK. Most Brits take the piss and they know exactly what it's like in the US 'cos they watched Friends. Most Americans don't know any town other than London. Most Brits could not show you Texas on a map. I remember a question on Millionaire here about what state had the longest coastline and a third said New Mexico. More intelligent?

I have no unattractive unitelligent American friends, but then I have no unattractive unitelligent British friends either. Or any obese ones. All of them have pretty good teeth. Not one of my American friends owns a firearm (though my best buds' uncle in NC has a wall full) and I have lot more experience with firearms than them. None of them voted Bush (or admit to it). Most of my friends on both sides of the Atlantic went to college. None of my friends have criminal records or act like violent hooligans.

I can find a shitload of things I like and dislike about both nationalities (more British, but then i'm a 33 year old Englishman as opposed to seven years of traveling to the ConUS). IGNORANCE however comes out on top. Both nationalities are as ugly and fucked up as the other. Instead of trying to get one up each other, take a look in the mirror. Point the finger and see what stares you in the face.

Okay, done talking bollocks now. Boring pointless fucking argument....

#216, POS: Hear, hear!! *claps*

#214....eh, don't speak for others it makes you look like an ass. And it looks as if you took a little break to cruise for trannies yourself and you just came back for one last cheap shot when she's clearly not here.

Thanks, BarbadoSlim. I appreciate the words of support. I find this whole post amusing on the one hand, and deadly serious on another.
When BushCheney Co. took office (they weren�t actually elected, of course, they were appointed by the Supreme Court the first time and swindled the election the second) I couldn�t believe that there was enough stupidity in this country to allow it- I couldn�t believe that anyone, let alone millions of people, would vote for them, couldn�t believe that people didn�t do more to fight the results, couldn�t believe we were going to even attempt to take this administration seriously. His stupidity didn�t seem to be a problem for those who voted for him, in fact, it was said that people found it �endearing� because he�s �one of us.� Al Gore had to keep his intelligence under wraps as best he could for fear of alienating himself from the general population. It seemed very clear to me that Bush would drive this country into the ground, and he�s come close, and he and his administration have turned Iraq into a bloody nightmare as well. We�re all (Americans) participating in this by allowing it, but I had to wonder about the people who willfully participate, the people who choose, enjoy, and cultivate the culture of stupidity that has swept the nation in the past few years. (I thought the nation was pretty stupid when Reagan was President, so this has been unimaginable.) Forums like this give me an insight into that type of thinking. The bullying, reactionary, nasty, childish antics that were demonstrated on this post yesterday (and yes, I admit that I wasn�t on my best behavior) is a vital part of the energy that fuels the Bush Administration, the Iraq war, and the inhumanity at Abu-Ghraib and Guantanamo.
I live in a city where I�m relatively isolated from the people who voted for Bush on purpose, but I grew up in a small town in the middle of the country where people who behave like ponk, RichPort, and jrzmommy, and TurdFerguson did yesterday were everywhere. Name-calling, intolerance, and nastiness were a part of daily lives, and bullies were the objects of reverence and esteem. So when I read about the events at Abu-Ghraib, for instance, (and Rumsfeld�s approval of those events) I felt shocked, but not altogether surprised that that energy is alive and well. The way that RichPort, jrzmommy, et al banded together to say �get off our Web site; nobody likes you� (TurdFerguson, I found your last post hi-larious, btw) is of course harmless, but it contains the energy necessary for events like Abu-Ghraib to occur. When many people detect weakness or vulnerability, they want to attack it, and the more people they can get to support them, the more powerful they feel. It�s sad, but true, and even a Web site like this can demonstrate that point.
So, while my first post was an attempt at levity (though there was some truth to it) I have to say that I can see today that it was inflammatory for me to make such a generalization about Americans, and I do apologize (I�'m back-pedaling; it�'s the new black). But I am very concerned about the absence of intellectual debate or thought in this country, and the time, money, and life force spent on meaningless concerns. And like I said yesterday, if they are going to post Britney�s crotch shots as a story on cnn.com and abc news, then I see nothing wrong with bringing a social/political debate to a forum like this.

Is it me or is it tired in here??

Miranda - I am begging you... Will. You. PLEASE. STOP. Rambling on & on & on & on... it is old and as boring as most englishman.

I am not sure what the word in England is for "superficial" but I ask you to please look it up in a dictionary and think about it. Then never return to this site again. You sound like the ugliest, most boring girl sitting alone in a corner at a high school dance.

Al Gore had to keep his intelligence under wraps as best he could for fear of alienating himself from the general population.

......

...........

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

PS, Miranda, are you sending codes to aliens or some shit? What's with all those weird symbols? I know now......I know!!! You are a martian, aren't you? Miranda, do you own a French poodle that turns toward Mecca every night and barks?

biatcho-
This may seem fairly obvious, but if you don't want to read what I have to say, then can I suggest that you don't read what I have to say?

#218 - Blah, blah, fucking blah... geeez... correct me if I'm wrong, but don't tax payers support and perpetuate an outdated monarchy? And Americans are fucked up for making a bad choice? The Royal family automatically negates any opinion on our choices here. Maybe it's, oh I don't know, you who has tolerance issues... me telling you to blow me is feeding Christian fanaticism..? Who knew? I mean I heard when a butterfly flaps its wings a hurricane forms across the ocean, so that must mean when I say blow me some illegitimate president bombs a few sand jockeys? Yea, I guess I get it now...

And for the love of grammar, please please edit after cutting and pasting from Word.

And you owe me a dollar everytime you say mine name...

This discussion brings up lots of good points. I wish Gwyneth would keep her opinions to herself.

Since Gwyneth has gotten the majority of her money and good fortune from Americans, either her rich parents or American film companies, she should shut the fuck up.

jrzmommy, you amaze me each and every time you post with your stunning wit. Martians? A French poodle that turns toward Mecca? Now that's what I call comedy.
Shine on, you crazy diamond.

Miranda, I christen thee the new Sasquatch. sorry, Danielle, but I think we found someone just a tad more annyoing and hairier than you.
And Sasquatch, if it's Floyd quotes you want, well, one of these days, I'm gonna cut you into tiny pieces.

How do we kill it Jrz, you know, since you an I allowed Abu Ghraib to happen? This chick is a limousine liberal, rebelling against daddy's money... that is until wedding day (what? sasquatches need love too), then she'll embrace capitalism and vote for John McCain or Mitt Romney.

Miranda - you think very highly of yourself if you think ANYONE is actually reading what you're spewing here. Just looking at all of that garbled fuckness forced me to take a nap. Don't you have some tea water & meat to boil?

I just don't think it's going to go away Rich. Maybe we should start showing some old Cold War, 80s films, like Red Dawn and Rambo and that Rocky where he beats the piss out of Dolph Lundgren (Way to go, SLY!!!) and maybe the patriotism will be so overwhelming she'll have to leave? Should me and you and commish put on crazy wigs and paint U S and A on our respective chests in red, white and blue and chant USA USA USA until she leaves????

should I make the Superfish guy demand she shave her armpits and trim her toenails? that may set her over the edge....

Sasquatch- I like it. I liked commie whore better, and I've asked all my friends to please call me that, but Sasquatch is also fine.
Thanks.

Jrz, that's the kind of bigoted crap that made Osama hate us.

it is? Well then, let's turn it up a notch, shall we? Let's start singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic and You're a Grand Old Flag, too!!

The United States has too many Black people. That messes up the stats.

and then some random fuck chimes in with something completely incoherent.........

http://h1.ripway.com/debisis/takeitfromme_essay_submission_seconddraft.htm

This is a comp I'm submitting to a local yachting zine. To the Ed, if you log on to this site and you're reading this, sorry, but I had to do it!

Note to Gwen: Let's not confuse our unemployment rate as laziness or having bigmouths as being ignorant. I happen to take pride in my big American mouth and stubby fingers. At least we're not sniveling and overly reserved...which is kind of narcissitic if you ask me.

It's pretty irresponsible for any one to say that one country is more "civil" than another. Especially if she's talking about her own country. Reservation isn't necessarily the same as etiquette either..believe I've worked in the yachting biz with enough Brits to know.

I'm an American stewardess in the yachting biz, and I can not tell you how many times I've heard Brits, South Africans, and Kiwis say that Americans are pathetic, ignorant, etc...this kind of behavior in front of myself... on an American boat...in my country. Could you imagine saying the same about English people in a pub in England...you'd have your ear bitten off, by bad teeth no less.

Note to F'arigners: We're not natives of the Americas, I get your point, but we are citizens of the United States. Many of you who are guests in our country could use some wising up BEFORE there are more people like me bitching about people like you. You don't impress Americans by saying such, dum dum.

This is going to be a little brutal for me to say, but I happen to agree that had we not have won the American Revolution, perhaps the English and thier ilk would be speaking a different language.

Thanks for the English language. We'll take it from here. Don't even get me started on some of those mean and pesky South Africans who are over taking the yachting industry like maggots on a dead kitty cat.

--Me and My Big American Mouth
..Pal.

"Thanks for the English language. We'll take it from here. "

That's poetry...

A farce with some truth.

#237: erm, sorry to have to correct you, but the 'we almost had German as our world language' story is an urban legend... check it out:

http://www.snopes.com/language/apocryph/german.htm

and.. 'had ... have won' is fabulous. Thanks for the giggle. Had you have been having to write in German, I wonder what would have come out...

#237: err... sorry, but the 'German would almost have become the world language' story is an urban legend... check it out:

http://www.snopes.com/language/apocryph/german.htm

And 'had...have won' gave me a good giggle, thanks! Had you have been having to write in German, I wonder what would have come out...

oops... my laptop went a bit crazy there.. sorry for the (not identical) double post!

I am still waiting for someone to please tell me what exactly is the definition of an intelligent conversation? Because at the moment, I am guessing it is a political conversation that requires one to agree with the initial person who started the topic. Therefore, creating an unwanted medium for the sole purpose of that person who started the conversation to repeatedly reiterate his or her own perceived sanctimonious and superior political ideology. All this political hooey just so one naive person can bask in a deluded feeling of moral righteousness against those who don�t share their ideology.

Miranda, clearly you were never taught that it was bad manners to bring up politics amongst strangers.

As for your weak reasoning that if CNN or ABC can deliberate on B.S. cunt then you can therefore come on entertainment site and pontificate on your unwanted political views. Perhaps you have not understood clearly how the news works. You see, the news is based upon various topical events on various topics not inclusive to politics. It also examines events at a local, national, and worldly level. The news also acts as medium to disperse information on sports and entertainment and the weather too. You see, all these events change on a daily basis. Sometimes-even hourly. It is clear based on your own blundered reasoning that you have invalidated your own justification for discussing politics on an entertainment site as it is the norm for a news format to discuss a washed up singers twat if it is determined news worthy and topical. So Fuck off.

falsusangelus,
And you, on the other hand, have dazzled everyone who may read this with your clarity and brilliance. I do appreciate the lecture on what the news is, as well as the lecture about what is appropriate and what isn't on this site. Are you always so helpful with issues related to propriety?
I just have to wonder, with all of you who said that I shouldn't post here- why do you think that *you* should be the censor and decide who should post and what should be posted? Would you want to be censored yourself? Those of you who throw around words and phrases such as "cunt," "pussy," "commie whore" and "blow me and bruise the back of your throat," is there anything other than the overwhelming need to be a bully that motivates you to try to censor rather than just ignore my posts?
I find it all fascinating. I feel like I'm in a kind of lab, studying supreme human stupidity. Normally, I would have to tune into Jerry Springer or go over to the Bowling Alley at closing to witness it at this level, but now I don't even have to get out of my chair.

PS: It's a wonderful world we live in. God bless the USA.

Thought I'd swing by and see how the debate is going. Glad to see the finer points are still being debated. I think we're reaching a consensus.

All Americans are fat, war-mongering ignoramuses.

All Brits are elitist, beer-swilling hooligans with bad teeth.

Let the lurve unfurl.

tiffin - you forgot to summarize how much of a cunting asshole miranda is.

done.

Good summary, Tiffin.
Please, though, do not overlook the narrative that's been created. Apparently, last night I took my daddy's limo to a dance where no one would talk to me (who would want to? I'd eaten a whole pound of shit earlier) and as I realized that no one likes me, I was forced to do what many before me had done: I became a communist whore.
I was out all night with my customers, including a communist terrorist, who I blew. Then I woke up in the morning to find that I had become a Sasquatch with really poor manners and an inability to understand how the news works. Later, I became a cunting asshole.
You know, that's a pretty creative story, considering a bunch of morons came up with it. Isn't there some saying that if you put a hundred chimpanzees in a room with a hundred typewriters, eventually they will write Hamlet? Well, clearly these people are on their way.
And now, I really must sign off and attend to a rather nasty bruise on the back of my throat. You know what they say about those communist terrorists (wink wink).
It's been a lot of fun, everyone, and I'd love to chat some more, but I have to move on.

And thank fuck for that.

Well she's cetainly demonstrating how moronic americans can be - doing "as she says" and "as she does." I'm a bit perplexed by her last statement. I presume she thinks the portuguese speak Spanish. Fucking idiot.

I'm just wondering why anyone is actually paying attention to the little twat. You're only provoking her to produce more of the same-old same-old bile. I mean, if I wanted to participate, I guess all I would have to do is post a conservative news article and her head would probably start spinning, with steam coming out of her ears. In fact, her head may pop off. Hmmm...I might just have to visit anncoulter.com or intellectualconservative.com then...

mirandawilde: You all are so mean to me! All I wanted to do was educate you idiots on how much we Americans suck! We're murderers and complicit in the rape of Pakistani women! And our genetically modified crops from Archer Daniels Midland which are supposed to alleviate world hunger are really responsible for the bruise on the back of my throat (damn you and your enormous cock RichPort!!! Damn you both to hell!!!). I am so disgusted that I can't have an intelligent rant about unrelated topics on a celebrality site without being bullied and told to shut the fuck up... CENSORSHIP I SAY!!!! Very unAmerican, which is wait... if American sucks, then unAmerican must unsuck... I'm fucking confused... this remind me of speaking with my parents and being ignored and.... what's that? Uh, no, I can't vote in my state... I have a felony charge for masterlocking myself to a tree trunk when there were building that mini McMansion in the forest, so no, but I can still complain with the best of 'em... and you can't force me to move to the UK... I like Borat better than Ali G anyway...

RichPort-
You seem to be implying a level of intensity that simply isn't there. I'm not angry, upset, or at all worked up. This was all in good fun for me, and I think all of you are precious in a guest-on-Jerry-Springer kind of a way. I feel no ill will toward any of you.
Well, except for the one who said "Go read an Ann Coulter book." That's simply unforgivable.
"Go read an Ann Coulter book." I'm no fan of censorship, but those are words that simply shouldn't be stated. It's amazing they don't sink to the bottom of the computer screen with the weight of their own tremendous stupidity.
So, really, thanks for all the fun.

This is absolutely untrue. Paltrow is obviously an idiot, but so are many of the posters here who believe that Europeans are smarter. The fact is, Europeans go about acquiring knowledge differently. Americans choose to be more practical, and prefer to solve problems and apply knowledge, while Europeans choose rote learning over application. If Europeans were smarter, they would be leading the world, and not following the American model. The comments about the French being more intelligent is absurd. The french, as usual, feign intelligence. If you actually listen to what they have to say, if they ever take a break, which is unlikely to happen, you will realize that they are pseudo-intellectuals, who havent a clue. The French do nothing and I mean nothing but IMITATE americans, in just about everything! While not all Americans are bright, you will find the brightest people in America. One must not compare the USA to european countries. That would be like comparing a peon to a monarch.

Miranda, you may hate America, but you're a good sport. I'd fuck you (not really, but I hear you chicks like to hear that sort of thing).

Just as an aside: Has any thread on the 'fish ever had this many comments? And gone on over so many days? Anyway, am thoroughly enjoying all the comments!

Gwyneth is just bitter, leave her alone.

She's grown tired of waiting for someone to do a drive-by on that sassy little blond bitch from the Dickme Chicks so that she can take her place.

I hear she already has a stage name picked out 'Miss Twat O' Gold'.

The only way anyone in Europe could be more interesting than your average U.S. citizen is by trying yet again to explain why their children wouldn't now be posing as lampshades, shoes, suitcases, or other useful items had the U.S. not stepped in twice.

It's gotten to where we U.S. citizens are labeled as "boring, uneducated, insensative, blah, blah, blah" until someone needs the shit kicked out of them, and then it's like in the bar when the little, annoying Eurotrash start something, "let's talk shit and then run and hide behind those American brutes".

You'd be speaking German and eating fishheads and rice every night if not for us. Here's an idea, keep those numb cunts; they fit right in with the French and Spanish.

And don't come crying when you're bent over and lubbed up as you face Mecca, K-Mart, or where ever.

For the random posts that back up her statements and agree that Americans are stupid and crass. I have a question. Is it the black or white Americans that you find to be this way? Generalizations=Idiot

I'm going against all my better judgment in posting this, but Gwyneth Paltrow, regardless of what she says or does ever, deserves no attention. She's not particularly talented, not particularly interesting to look at, and everything that comes out of her high-school-level-educated mouth is questionable at best. Let's all forget about her and be happy.

do we really need to compare the US to europe? even most europeans agree that europe ain't what it's cracked up to be. in fact, americans are much less likely to move out of america as europeans are to move out of europe and to america. interesting considering that we cannot hold conversation, obsess over money, and do not make good dinner guest.

among the world's best universities:

harvard, caltech, mit, yale, stanford, columbia...

among the best writers of the 20th century:

philip roth, saul bellow (born in canada but very american), don delillo, james baldwin, bernard malamud...

not bad for such an unintelligent nation.

uncouth american

p.s. go fuck yourself, cunt.

simple fact is that it was an incredibly stupid thing to say and reflects on her intelligence:P at her age its hard to claim its just niave stupidity of youth.

she's free to say it, but we are free not to pay to watch her films. i was never sure why she got famous anyways, she's not very pretty, and i don't think she has much charisma. its just she gave those weinstein brothers a hardon and they just cast her in everything.

Hellooo! In Portugal we speak Portuguese, stupid, not Spanish!!!! A true american intellectual, she is.

Vera Jorge

meh, who cares what a cabbage head says?

I can't believe how much time and effort has been wasted on a celebrity statement. Every nation's people are different, and all countries have their good and bad points. Most of you, as people seem to be either very offensive, or very defensive. Very few of you have been OBJECTIVE.

I think it's fair to say that not many British people think George Bush is fit to lead a country. It reflects badly on the intellect of the voters, because to us, he seems so obviously incompetent.
Lose Goerge Bush from government, elect an intelligent, courageous, articulate leader, and I think respect for America would rise a little straight away.

Enough of this. I'd love to go to america and experience it for myself. Until then, I'm certainly not going to believe everything I see in the media.

When we comment on other countries -we act as ambassadors for our own homelands. Some of the ambassadors on this thread aren't doing themselves any favours.
