I was going to title this post, "Americans are fat and stupid" but my husband says I shouldn't speak in absolutes, so really, it should be that most Americans are fat and stupid.

This is not the greatest country in the world. I used to think that Americans were generally very ignorant, however they are also rude and obnoxious.

I just had the WORST check out experience ever at a Walmart. Almost half an hour to check out. When I suggested to another employee, who had tried to help our incredibly clueless checkout girl, that maybe she needs more training or support, his only response was, "I'm sick."

At that point I asked if there was a manager I could speak with.

There is a self entitlement and self importance to the American culture. If Obama wants to fix his country, he has got to stop blowing sunshine up their asses, and be frank and honest with them.

1. Stop eating so much crap. The food here is crap. All processed garbage. You are what you eat, and you guys are eating crap.

2. Stop watching TV. Your news SUCKS. No wonder you don't know that Everest is in Asia and not Africa. Go ahead, try to find Iraq or Afghanistan on a map.

3. Stop the fakeness. The hair, the nails, the tans, the "have a nice days". You don't really care about anyone but yourself, so stop pretending that you do. And the fake nails and hair - do they only sell one colour of blond hair dye here?

4. Stop the rudeness. You are no better than the person standing beside you, so there is no reason why you deserve to go first. Wait you turn. Better yet, consider actually letting someone in front.

5. Stop buying and selling so much crap! There is junk everywhere. You don't need it. Try the three Rs - reduce, reuse, recycle. Really come on - you don't recycle?

OK, so it won't fix you, but it would be a start. Honestly, you are turning your country into a garbage can. It is like you country has become a giant Walmart nation, and it really sucks.
