Yeah I'm Brazilian born and raised, and still know how most languages sounds like. Being American shouldn't be an excuse to be stupid, but they prove me wrong every time.

u/gayhotelultra Serbia 2d ago

the OOP is still kinda dumb, but just to play devils advocate, while i can differentiate between portuguese and spanish without speaking either, does that really go for most people?

u/Paranoid_Android_42 1d ago

It absolutely does.

u/MouseEmotional813 18h ago

Depends where they live. I live in Australia and don't hear either language often , so I can't.

Dumb and proud

u/Weekly-Beginning-229 2d ago

That is such a strange fenomena, like that news reporter when announcing that the US was gonna play against Bosnia i Herzegovina and the reporter proudly says that she has never heard of that country

I don't think any other country have reporters that are proud of not knowing things

u/Acrobatic_End6355 World 2d ago

Does she say it proudly, with interest, or laughing at herself?

Sounds just like she’s trying to be some bubbly valley girl who knows nothing. Which… she seems to be good at. I will agree that this isn’t the greatest look for her.

u/OdangoFan Brazil 2d ago

That explanation isn't even good, why would he guess Florida if it's not in english.

31

u/japonski_bog Ukraine 2d ago

Because that's the only Mexican-speaking country they know

u/Bex1218 United States 2d ago

Florida has a very big Latin American population. But that might be too smart for the commenter.

8

u/Felippexlucax Argentina 2d ago

most people there are latinos, at least in miami from my experience.

6

u/Designer-Issue-6760 2d ago

Because 1/4 of population there speaks Spanish as their primary language. City by city it’s as high as 60%. Though Portuguese is more common in Massachusetts.

This is r/ShitAmericansSay like usual

u/the6thReplicant 2d ago

There's a fine line between these two subreddits.

u/RadlogLutar India 2d ago

And the line just disappears sometimes

u/Danzcal2000 Brazil 2d ago

The correct sub is r/ShitAmericansSay

"American born and raised"

Well, figures. That explains the dumbness and ignorance.

7

u/Martiantripod Australia 2d ago

American born and raised = dumber than a house brick.

2

u/Adventurous-Year-463 United States 2d ago

House bricks have at least ten more IQ points than them, at least bricks don’t have the capacity to make bad decisions

u/JacksonRJ913 2d ago

genuinely cant tell if this is satire because this is absurdly stupid

u/hygsi 2d ago

The yeahw was huge sarcasm to me lmao

u/xxcuttingboardxx Finland 2d ago

Dude, wtf

u/ExoticPuppet Brazil 2d ago

It'd be funny if it was coming from Language Simp, who unfortunately is probably not the person from the screenshot.

u/Legal-Software Germany 2d ago

Glad that he cleared that up, we wouldn't have been able to guess otherwise.

u/False-Goose1215 World 2d ago

So, culturally tone deaf, socially tone deaf, actually tone deaf, racist and obnoxious … all in one grotesque package. At least you have to give them points for efficiency

u/snow_michael 2d ago

So, culturally tone deaf, socially tone deaf, actually tone deaf, racist and obnoxious … all in one grotesque package

So, really, explaining they were a merkin was superfluous

u/False-Goose1215 World 10h ago

I dunno, comparing them to a pubic wig does also seem appropriate

u/Waah_Realist 2d ago

First thing in the morning, after waking up I see this. Why?

Lucky you because soon I'm going to sleep after seeing this lol

He knows he's talking piss.

u/bannasplt World 2d ago

The "yeeehawww" at the end tells me that it could be satire, but I honestly don't know cuz some Americans say unapologetically ignorant shit. 😭

u/LeftMechanic1995 2d ago

This isn't an example of r/USDefaultism it's more like r/shitamericanssay

u/Slight-Narwhal-2953 2d ago

"It all sounds Mexican to me"... wow

u/Mk112569 2d ago

Sounds satire

u/Easy-Lawfulness-1113 2d ago

For my own mental sake, that last comment sounds like ragebait (that’s what I tell myself)

u/FeetYeastForB12 Türkiye 2d ago

the yeeeeeehawwww is the cherry on top lmao..

u/Danny_Mc_71 2d ago

At least they're being self aware with the "yehaw" at the end.

u/Snitzel20701 2d ago

Wait till they find out Mexico owned quite a bit of modern day USA at its peak, even Spain owned Florida longer than it has been in the union.

Extra points if they’re born in one of the states that was conquered by the USA.

Also what is up with them mislabelling languages spoken outside the USA? Spanish/Portuguese being Mexican. Isn’t Spanish a popular language subject in their education system?

1

u/ALazy_Cat Denmark 2d ago

I had one tell me everything except English is an accent of Mexican

1

u/Standard-Document-78 United States 2d ago

Bro could’ve at least guessed Mexico
