I do know quite a few intelligent & decent Americans, but on the whole America is pretty dumb and frankly quite annoying. Australia isn't much better, I might add.
You do realise that calling Australia dumb is basically labelling us.
You also think that we're annoying? C'mon now im pretty sure America is more annoying than us, think about their debts, pollution, and plainly stupid sometimes. But i've been there and i've met quite a few Americans and as it turns out, they're really good people and they respect you...
Funny thing is they always say something about our voice. One of them was named Sharon and she said my voice is cute...
You have to understand every country is good and bad, nothings perfect in the world.

Well I live in Australia so I can testify to the general populace's stupidity (seriously, the lack of "common" sense is astounding). As I said about America I know a few decent Australians too but on the whole they're loud, obnoxious, annoying and can't seem to understand proper English.
An associate of mine came up with a rather good equation: the average intelligence of a crowd is equal to the intelligence of the dumbest person in that crowd divided by the number of people in that crowd.

Haha, I'm in Aus too. Uncommon sense really.
RE: The North American box art is terrible - Xanatos - 02-09-2011
Why do they even call it 'common sense' anymore? Common sense is so rare nowadays it's a Goddamn superpower.

we should form an elite group of super heroes that go around pointing out the flaws in plans and the like using "common sense"...

Sounds like a great idea for my short film >_>

The team will be lead by Captain Obvious! *cape swishes in the wind*
And his sidekick Critical Caitlin.
Arch nemesis of General Oblivious. *Darth Vader music*

Lol there already is that !
In the last season of south park they invented a super hero whose super power is only to point the flaws in peoples plans and common sense and when he is done talking he goes away.
His name is captain hindsight!
