starving artist stereotypes. always frowning,wears a lot of black, terrible with people, really thin, and has strong opinions on art, music, movies, etc.
I'm Canadian, and I'm, like, obscenely polite. Sometimes when I'm being nice to someone my inner voice will be shouting 'why are you putting up with these jerks?!'
It's like a reflex, I can't help it.

There is about something about your description that, while it isn't literally accurate, rings of truth.
Jewish Stereotype: I'm a smart nerdy Jewish guy that comes from a family with money (my dad is an entrepreneur). I'm also extremely cheap to the point that my parents have talked to me about it (Jokingly, but still....).
Canadian Stereotype: I am incredibly nice (according to other people, I don't really know). I had an American extreme Christian tell me that I'm like Jesus, which was an odd yet very sweet compliment. I also say eh a lot. Its so useful! I don't use it like "um" (some Canadian do), but more to symbolise a question from an observation. Example: "That poutine is like a heart attack on a plate, eh?" I don't actually know how you would be able to make such a sentence without the eh.
And no spell-checker, "symbolise" IS spelled with an s.... American spelling makes me angry sometimes.
I'm a black guy and math hates me more than the Mississippi penal code. I scored a 90 IQ in math...but a 185 IQ in verbal skills. /beastmode

Wait what? There is an American spelling for that? ...Fair enough.maxben said:
I'm a huge guy (not fat, just built like a brick shithouse) with long hair, black metal band shirts, heavy leather jackets and big steel toed boots. and i love heavy metal and am actually a satanist.
I'm Canadian and i do say eh at the end of my sentences.
I'm newfie (eastern Canadian) so i have some weird speech mannerisms stereotypical of the land.
I'm white, i cannot play basketball or soccor, but i play and watch hockey.
I'm sure there are a few others, but off the top of my head that is all i can think of.

Hmmm let's see. I'm a nerd who studies physics and astrophysics at uni but in my spare time I train in mixed martial arts. I think I break the mold a bit.
A couple of years ago though. Damn I was the mold back then. Scrawny kid, good grades, didn't go out much, was usually really nervous around girls, played a lot of video games, terrible acne and was athletically retarded. The perfect nerd back them.

The danish stereotypes is drinking a lot, and adding "Øh" to our sentences. (The "Øh" sound kinda like the Canadinan "Eh")
And Drink a lot, and occasionally add "Øhhhh" to my sentences.

If I was male I'd pretty much be the poster boy for nerdy basement dwellers.
Being female gets me out of it at least
On a surreal note my friend jokes that he's suspicious of me being a fairy because I'm highly touch allergic to iron and ill devour anything with sugar or cream in. Lol.

I'm short and very loud/exuberant and occasionally feel the need to prove I'm better than everyone around me - y'know, even when I'm not. (Short man - short girl? - complex)
I'm working on the thinking I'm better than everyone though.

Middle-class white person at a prestigious university.
Physics major with a small circle of friends who doesn't get out much.
Academic major (double majoring in linguistics) who doesn't do much work.
Student at Rice's Sid Richardson residential college (if you don't know the residential college system, think 'dorm hall'; Sid has a reputation as 'the crazy one'), and I can be--totally sober--crazier than some shitfaced people under the right circumstances.
College student with really eclectic musical tastes.
College student with trashy pop music tastes (I listen to just about anything musical).
Linguistics major with books in a half-dozen different languages on my desk. For the curious: German, Latin, and Icelandic dictionaries (only Latin gets much use right now); two bibles, one in German and one in Yoruba; a New Testament in Farsi; a copy of Joyce's novel "Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" and a collection of Shakespeare's plays (Julius Caesar, Romeo and Juliet, Midsummer Night's Dream), both in Hungarian; a super-technical Russian-to-English dictionary ("oil reservoir under simultaneous drives" is an entry, whatever the fuck that is); pocketbook of 150-something German verb tables; Finnish phrasebook; funny modern Greek phrasebook, mostly insults or jokes; a book entitled "How to Insult, Abuse, and Insinuate in Classical Latin" that's entirely quotes from Roman authors; Teach Yourself books in Finnish and Icelandic; four volumes of the Loeb Library (2 Vergil and 2 Ovid; all of the Aeneid and the majority of the Matamorphoses).
Bachelor whose stuff is an absolute mess.
