Love to have some more eps with these people. The atmosphere they created was absolutely good and enjoyable. It’s fun to watch them talk about the differences in the US… Thanks ^^
I live in GA and Atlanta has grown so much, I pretty much stay away from there, unless I have to be there. It’s beautiful, but crazy busy. I live about 1.5 hours from ATL, I honestly feel like it’s not even Georgia 😂. It’s lost it’s Southern Charm I suppose. Lots of cool stuff to do and see but I prefer nature to the city. My mom is from CA. I think that Southern CA and Northern CA are so different from each other. I prefer Northern California. It’s so beautiful and the people seem more chill. I have never been to NY or OH. North Carolina is beautiful. I lived there for about 1.5 years. Each place is definitely very different. Anyway, it was fun watching this.
Being from Northern California I can agree its way more nature and beutt up here bay area be exact. So cal is ok no hate to them just more congested and hotter lol Ohio is ok depending on what part
What kills me is that most people who say "valley girl" have never been to "the valley", have no idea where it is or what it's like, don't know where the term came from and how outdated it is lol.
@@arialee1008 they don't need to know where it is. Thats just a common term used to describe it. I think of that movie Valley girls, so it's really just a pop culture word now and not exactly place we are talking about.
@@srose1088 That movie is over 40 years old and that term is even older, so yeah it's very outdated, and sounds very passé to native Angelinos and other Californians who are very familiar with the greater L.A. area including "The Valley".
To be clear, most Californians don't come off as Surfers or Valley Girls. That's primarily NW Los Angeles, The San Fernando Valley (Burbank and Universal Studios in Hollywood), Ventura County, and Malibu. Here are some good examples of what most Californians sound like: Politicians Xavier Becerra (Head of Health and Human Services for Biden) and Kamala Harris (US Vice President) NFL players Sam Darnold, Jared Goff, and Brandin Cooks. Various rappers like E40, Mac Dre, Kendrick Lamar, Nef The Pharaoh, Ice Cube, Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, The Game, etc Country Singer Merle Haggard Rock bands like Rancid, Blink 182, Green Day, Linkin Park, Metallica, AFI, Korn, and The Offspring. Note: California's a big state so each person/group I put here comes from different areas and ethnic backgrounds known for their very specific accents. The differences are subtle but you can catch them if you pay attention.
You nailed it, Lukas. We also have Stanford, Cal Tech (Jet Propulsion Lab), Silicon Valley, but World Friends goes for stereotypes for entertainment purposes....but they are trying to Capture Eyeballs & Ears, so we cannot blame them for that.
New Yorkers are honest we don't do fake politeness and talk behind people's backs. It can come across as aggressive or rude sometimes to people not from here. Also, hardly anyone speaks in that accent they were doing, the girl from New York is right.
Most of the people who talked like that (typical NYC accent you hear in black & white films and gangster films) moved out of NYC in the 60s, 70s, & 80s when the city was in disarray and people who could afford to moved out. Most of them settled in the suburbs of the “tri-state area” (NJ, NY, & CT). Hence why places like New Jersey and Long Island have a lot of Italian American and Irish American diaspora. For example my Mom’s side of the family was an old NYC family with strong roots in SoHo & Brooklyn. In the 1960s the city seized their entire block via “eminent domain” and they moved to LI then NJ. People refer to it as “white flight” but a lot of it was also forced relocation. That combined with ever increasing costs of living and a vast insurgence of people moving in and gentrifying neighborhoods since the late 90s is why NYC doesn’t have a lot of “old school New Yorkers” anymore and sounds and feels more and more just like a global city.
Nah it's just that a lot of people from Manhattan don't have New York accents. Many people from the other boroughs have real accents. It's not just white people too
@@oliver_merida When someone’s really hott, the mind can create all kinds of things. For instance, I remember him playing the piano and was quite good at it. 👍
So, ppl don't get confused upstate New Yorkers don't have that (New Yawkah) NYC metropolitan accent. Buffalo, NY's regional accent belongs to the Rust belt Northern city vowels shift family of accents. (Chicago, Buffalo, Rochester, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Detroit, Milwaukee, Grand Rapids etc). It's the same how Erie, Scranton, and Pittsburgh talk nothing like we do in Philly only South Jersey does. Lol
NY: The way they say coffee in the beginning of the word sounds like Dutch, koffie. Also the Dutch are known to be blunt/frank/harsh just pointing this out because they don't make the historic connection with New Amsterdam aka New York beginning as a Dutch colony.
There's a book by Colin Woodard called The 11 American Nations that talks about the cultural suprastates that retain elements of the culture that initially colonized it. The NY/NJ/Connecticut area is called New Amsterdam and still retains some Dutchness to their culture.
@@Ivan-fm4eh Thank you for the info/book referral. 11 Nations? Originally colonized, 11? There were the French, Spanish, British, Dutch, Portuguese... or are we going longer than "originally" with German and Sweden? Or are we going further back with Leif Erikson & Greenland, New Foundland, etc. I thought NYC was New Amsterdam and the area was New Netherlands, Nieuw Nederland. Like how Australia was Nieuw Holland, and New Zealand = Nieuw Zeeland. But Holland and Zealand are provinces of the Netherlands.
@@schiffelers3944 just a standard new york accent originally from Brooklyn (yea, one of the thickest NY accents lol). For example, I don't say coffee the way many people think we do but I do notice that I pronounce "for sure" like "four shore" while Californians might say "fur shur" . Same thing with the words: law (lo-aww), office (ohawwfice), aunt (ont), and caught (coh-awwt).
because we love taking the piss out of each other. Like how my cousin in CA mocks me for my cowboy hat and my cousin from Chicago mocks me for not handling real cold@@TheGreatOne-gw7xh
My observation of stereotypes. Ohio- Lots of jokes about Ohio especially Cleveland being a miserable place. New York - people have a reputation for being blunt, unfriendly, step on your body if you were bleeding in the street, obnoxious and bark worse than their bite. I have literally heard them announce “I’m from New Yawk” as if they think anyone cares. Georgia- Depends on ATL or state as a whole. ATL faux famous people, BBLs, crazy traffic The rest of Georgia- rednecks Florida- Panhandle is Lower Alabama. South - Cuba part 2 Plus alligators, tourists, retirees, weird political drama and crazy people. California- mixed bag. Hollywood fake and plastic. The Chicanos Other minorities The rural farming people The health nut, tree hugging hippies The very liberal people North Carolina- rarely discussed as a topic of conversation other than college sports.
Honestly coming from someone who lived in Florida for 14 years, it is probably one of the only places on earth I can think of were all the stereotypes about it, are 100% true. You basically described Florida to a tea. Only thing you forgot was Disney, and Lots of New Yorkers moving down here.
As a Californian, I agree...you need a certain darkness to pull off effective comedy. New Yorkers are a bit more cynical than other Americans, and usually have a great sense of humor.
I knew a bunch of people from Ohio in Florida. The old ones retire on the Gulf coast like Tampa, Sarasota, etc. The young ones go where the jobs are. And they party hard! There's really three different Floridas: South Florida. Miami, Fort Lauderdale, The keys. Crowded, over-populated. Central Florida. Disney World, Lego Land, Busch Gardens, and other tourist traps. Then the rest, what I call "Red State" like North Florida and rural parts of Central Florida. Where time feels like it stands still. Funny, that I knew a couple of people from ATL that moved, and they bought houses in "East Cobb" to rent or flip, while they "living the life" down in South Florida.
Oregon for stereotypes. You will see like hippies and stuff ig especially in Portland but there’s not that much lumberjack type things-ish. You could say that we don’t really have an accent either, or just general American. One thing Oregonians like to do is tease people from California ,especially SoCal’. We stereotype the valley girl accent and make fun of the ego. A lot of people that live in Oregon are from California though and the jokes are taken very lightly anyway.
As a Californian, I admit I do sometimes talk like a valley girl (I lived in a valley too) but that’s usually only when I talk faster. Moving to North Carolina last year, it’s super weird hearing people with country accents as it’s not very common in the West Coast. I still haven’t gotten used to it and most people can tell I’m from California just by looking at me somehow. Also, it’s weird because my two guy friends are major red necks but they’re not that rough type, they just like fishing and dirt biking. I’m used to city boys. They’re fun though. Most people from back home would probably make fun of them tbh.
Since China is large too, it could be interesting to do the same exercise with 4 Chinese persons. I had 2 Chinese colleagues, one from Shanghai and the other from Beijing. And apparently there are some tensions and stereotyping too, there. 🤫
I experienced Hong Kong and I saw how the Cantonese is very different. When I was at the metro cinema in Kwai Fung MTR Cinema I was stunned hearing mandarin with subsitiles in EN and traditional Chinese meanwhile the audience were mostly young HK kids and a few uncles. It was funny because the language made me think... am I in China or Singapore?
Something that was missing in the explanation of southern accents is that there is also a tendency to go from lilting to buzzsaw depending on where you are in the south.
I’ve heard someone say before that Californians/West Coast people are nice but not kind. While NYCers/East Coast people are kind but not nice. I’m from CA but live in DC now. I really see that
I’m surprised Ian didn’t know who Amish people were. Or maybe he asked because of the international audience. What they didn’t mention is a lot of these people don’t speak English as a first language. Same with the Mennonites where I currently live.
It seemed like he knew what it was but it was a mixture of him wanting to see if there was new info and also his teacher experience influencing wanting to make sure it's defined for the video
True. I was in a Mennonite store recently in Southern Iowa, and this guy was carrying out a family meeting in the back of the store speaking Pennsylvania Dutch.
Wisconsin here, so, cheese, sausage, and beer. You can't really call it a stereotype, because there's plenty of video evidence of us eating bratwurst, drinking beer, and wearing cheeseheads on our heads on Sundays watching Green Bay Packer football games. Monday usually sucks.
Shannon deserves to wear Shiny Black Latex Leather Catsuit with Black Latex Leather Corset with Black Latex Leather Boots, just like female artist Bebe Rexha. Everybody loves Bebe, so do the ladies.
Georgia seems a little bit more British with with the "Sir" & "Ma'am" (short for Madam) Also they use words like love and dear, but they can also be back-handed. Georgia is a British Royal colony state in origin.
Pretty much the entire Southeast are sir ma’am states and not all were ever part of British colonies. New England is not like that and were British colonies.
@@anndeecosita3586 But that has more to do with the wars and unifications, wouldn't you say, and the assimilation to English in to a country where English is not the official language.... Very American up side down and topsy-turvy.
The two most important cities in the nation are NY and LA, but there's always been a rivalry between the two. while NY is the financial center and capital of fashion in the nation, LA is the center of the film and music industries.
NY accent is amazing 😻 Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I studied in Syracuse University and I loved living there. Actually, I like the American accent more than the Australian or English accent.😝 My sister learned English in Australia and she tells me to stop talking like the Kardashians and start speaking decent English like her… yeah right! 🙄😂 Cheers from 🇲🇽
I met alot of different people from different parts of the u.s mid west and Southerners are pretty chill...but New Yorkers 😅 are too angry lol doesn't matter if you think your being honest you guys need to relax everything isn't about you😂 I got some friends from there alot are very opinionated. Which is funny to hear " New Yorker: WHat I can't get a slice of pizza at 4 in the morning...😡this place sucks!!! "What! no pond hockey..why did I go to a different place expecting the same... Californian: relax man🙄 get burrito and go on a hike...why are you still wearing a hoodie it's not even cold?
Shannon deserves to wear Shiny Brown Latex Leather Catsuit with Brown Latex Leather Boots, just like female actresses Bridget Regan, Charisma Carpenter, Jessica Marais, and Talbrett Bethell. Thumbs up if Shannon looks phenomenal. 🥰😍🤩😘👍
I just want to see their reactions when a 3-way is mentioned. Esp when they learn it’s a food reference. I’m fairly sure only one person will truly understand.
Surprised they speak alot of Spanish in California, and the Californian replies "its so diverse". True statements but both seem to ignore the state was once part of Mexico and Spain.. like the people didn't move cause the state was made apart of the Union. I swear my own countrymen don't know about states' history.
I mean there was a war, after which they were given a year to leave or become US citizens. California didn't exist as a state till two years after the war.
Yeah like basically half the population of LA is Mexican American so it’s extremely Latin/Mexican influenced. And that goes for Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas too because like you said we all used to be part of Mexico and before that Spain.
You do realize that Latinos are the majority in California right?? Edit: I apologize, I thought you said you were surprised Californians speak Spanish a lot. I agree, many people don’t know California is majority Latinos.
Yes, but the vast majority (like 99.999999%) of Spanish speakers in California are *recent* immigrants from Mexico and Central America, and their children, not the descendants from centuries past. After a few generations, immigrant families switch to English.
What part of Florida is she talking about. The Florida I know isn't overpopulated. I have family from Florida and I lived there for a while Jacksonville area.

NY and CA are arguably the most culturally relevant parts of the US. My impression of New Yorkers: brash, brutally honest, workaholic, impatient, rushed, hard to impressed, able to mind their business or ignore strange situations especially in the subway at the same time will not tolerate substandard performance at work, loud, pay unbelievably high rent for inhumane tiny apartments, been leaving their homes for states like Florida, love representing their city. Favorite nyc accents: mike Tyson, judge Judy, Donald trump, Danny devito
@@officerkd6-3.76 I reread my statement and felt I came off as harsh or rude but don’t mean any bad feelings from the following statement, apologies for any offense, I am from Virginia so I’m not bias just stating my thoughts: while FL and TX are well known states, how are they culturally relevant? Like what trend or cultural significance came from those and spread to other states? Like take music for example, hip hop is all over but the genre and fashion from hip hop originated from NYC. If New Yorkers decide tight pants are cool, soon the rest of US will follow. And we all know how Hollywood and Silicon Valley effects how people live not only in US but the rest of the world. If you been to NYC, you might be surprised how many landmarks look familiar because you seen it before on tv or movies. Whereas for Houston or Dallas or San Antonio, most Americans don’t know what these cities look like but a generic city. TX is sort of a mid west, southern hybrid but besides Mexican food what other cultural impact does it have on the other 49 states? They are known for football but football was originally a north eastern sport. They are very proud of Whataburger and buc-e but outside of TX, not many are aware of their popularity. Like Tim Horton’s for Canadians. FL to me maybe a up and coming state. I think more people are moving there especially from NY, along with Texas many people and companies are moving there. My opinion is TX, FL, GA, MA, MI are possibly second tier in cultural significance.
@@vaccinatedanti-vaxxer if you don’t wanna put FL and TX in the same tier as NY and CA, fine I get it. But you cannot put them with MI, MA, and GA. Texas gave us the whole “cowboy” thing, and FL, well Florida’s Florida. Don’t know how to explain it. It has Miami, a melting pot of culture and it’s where iconic movies like Scarface are set
You are pretty much comparing cities not states. NYC and Los Angeles aka Hollywood neither of which reflect most of the country culturally. Also IMO Florida and Texas are very well known internationally. Florida is associated with Disney.
American accents tend to level off by the time they reach California except for the surf scene and valley talk.Ian has no accent at all. Georgia and N Carolina tend to have similar vowel sounds and NY, well Newyawkahs are a world to themselves!
Buffalo NY doesn't have a New Yawkah accent. Their accent is related to Inland Northern group of accents. Only NYC North Jersey have that accent upstate NY doesn't.
I am mostly focused on the body language here. Notice how the blonde girls' bodies are turned toward homeboy? It then forces the two on the end, who are looking to be more neutral, to also center that way, and puts the natural focus on the three on the right.
I chuckled when the girl was talking about old people retiring in Florida because they think it will be like a vacation all the time. I think it is more for tax breaks.
America is not that different from European places and cultures, it's only bigger... The diversity Americans have, are similar to European countries, not just Europe as a whole; even if that is also true. In the Netherlands we have 12 provinces, I would equate this with what in the US is states if we look at culture and identity concepts. No matter what direction you go, every 15 minutes there will be a different dialect, differences in the dialect. We also have the typical North vs South and West vs East divisions more or less. Similar to USA but on a much smaller scale. We say Italian as a language - but there technically are like 4 different types of Italian with slight differences, and then there are also dialects. Or Spain with in this example case, Catalonia. (Also in a way similar to the Netherlands and Friesland dynamics) Canada is more like Belgium with 2 languages and French being quite dominant looking at a basic level. The diversities we have in our countries in Europe is probably more diverse at times than in States of the US. Our history is longer and more complex if we compare US to EU. Looking at it from further back than US, indigenous history & pre-history there are a lot of similarities. We are one race - the human race. We have different ethnicities, and slight differences or larger differences in cultures but always with a shared overlap and human history.
Wow, this is completely wrong The US can not be compared to any European Country. The US by itself is larger than all of Europe combined. Also, our population is made up of immigrants from every country that exists in the world. We don't have a majority ethnic group or official language here. You can take just one of our 50 states for example California for comparison. California by itself is larger than any country in Europe and has more diversity than any country in Europe. The economy of California alone is on par with Germany's economy. There is no comparison to be made between Europe and the US.
@@emmanuelwood8702 Okay, I'm game; name the diversity California has. How many ethnicities does California have? USA is broken and always has been... point being? How are people to assimilate to "American culture" & American identity? Americans are so ignorant and dense. The American dream is all illusions build on lies. We have diversity, we have immigrants in Europe. So if we still had an Empire here, we could be compared? You are talking about native American tribes as singular ethnicities? In the Netherlands every 15 minutes by car in any given direction will give you a different "tribal" culture, with a slightly different local language. You define the conditions, and I will find the comparisons from across the pond. *Also just to correct you:* In termen van landmassa zijn de Verenigde Staten en Europa vergelijkbaar in grootte - de Verenigde Staten is 9.833.000 vierkante kilometer, terwijl Europa 10.180.000 vierkante kilometer is - *In terms of landmass the United States and Europe are comparable in size - the US is 9,833,000 square kilometers, and Europe is 10,180,000 square kilometers.* Europe is larger.
I see your point but the US diversity isn’t purely geographical. We have a history of slavery then an era forced legal segregation that didn’t end that long ago. You will find families that have lived in the same city for 6-8 generations and who are culturally different and might know very little about one another.
@@anndeecosita3586 I am from the Netherlands/Europe we have a history of slavery [white slavery] what did you think the Roman Empire did, or the Moorish Empire, right before we did the Trans Atlantic slave trade? Tit-for-tat. Our forms of segregation is based on colonial territories. And assimilation and discriminations for those that moved to the Netherlands, that is still not gone and over. It is lesser extreme than in the US, but that basically goes with everything. Here you will also find families that have lived in the same city, location and who are culturally different and might know very little about one another. What do you thing the history of wars in Europe has done, and the history of religious powers? But we are not a Empire Island state... like the USA is. That is a thing the USA is different in. But this is part of our Histories also in Europe. Empires galore that rose and fell.
california is the biggest state of all the ones discussed, yet the stereotypes including accent and weather, dont even cover 1/8th of the state -- e.g. u will get snow covered mountains further north and the constantly cold-ish San Fran where the stereotype is the tech bro looking for stocks vesting. and this doesnt even cover the non-coastal cali.
Per the shocking study, nearly half of all Americans - 49% - reported having fewer than three close friends. This marks a nearly twofold increase from 1990, when less than one-third (27%) of Americans had three or fewer close friends. Per the findings, a whopping “36% of young men” reach out to their parents first when dealing with a personal problem, compared to just 17% in 1990. Our increasingly digitized society could also be to blame for the friendlessness plague, as studies have shown that social media use can cause feelings of isolation. 63% of singles between 18-29 are interested in a dating relationship but can't find one.
The woman in the middle were shocked because there's a lot of people who speak Spanish, in California? Does she know that California used to be from Mexico?! What's so strange about that...?!
He is from southern CA. northern CA. supper different. Southern CA. annoys the crap out of northern CA. because people from other countries only think about southern CA.

"We didn't know enough." Ohio stereotypes in a nutshell. Bucks!
Dang, Shannon's accent really came through on this one! Fun video ^^
Chaotic Americans! 😂 Love them. And Chelci is so funny. Bring her again
🎉🫰🏾🥰
How are they chaotic?
because we love taking the piss out of each other. Like how my cousin in CA mocks me for my cowboy hat and my cousin from Chicago mocks me for not handling real cold@@TheGreatOne-gw7xh
Can not wait for the Mexico version, chilangos fresas y ñeros, regios y Yucatecos all the way!
My observation of stereotypes.
Ohio- Lots of jokes about Ohio especially Cleveland being a miserable place.
New York - people have a reputation for being blunt, unfriendly, step on your body if you were bleeding in the street, obnoxious and bark worse than their bite. I have literally heard them announce “I’m from New Yawk” as if they think anyone cares.
Georgia- Depends on ATL or state as a whole. ATL faux famous people, BBLs, crazy traffic The rest of
Georgia- rednecks
Florida- Panhandle is Lower Alabama.
South - Cuba part 2
Plus alligators, tourists, retirees, weird political drama and crazy people.
California- mixed bag. Hollywood fake and plastic.
The Chicanos
Other minorities
The rural farming people
The health nut, tree hugging hippies
The very liberal people
North Carolina- rarely discussed as a topic of conversation other than college sports.
Honestly coming from someone who lived in Florida for 14 years, it is probably one of the only places on earth I can think of were all the stereotypes about it, are 100% true. You basically described Florida to a tea. Only thing you forgot was Disney, and Lots of New Yorkers moving down here.
NY Comedy is so much better than LA comedy, it isn't even close. Shoutout to the Cellar over the Comedy Store
As a Californian, I agree...you need a certain darkness to pull off effective comedy. New Yorkers are a bit more cynical than other Americans, and usually have a great sense of humor.
@@Ivan-fm4eh Wow not so subtle dig . We're not cynical in NY we're just not superficial like people from California.
@@emmanuelwood8702 thanks for demonstrating my point 🤣
@@Ivan-fm4ehwhere are you from California
7:41 She missed the chance for the ultimate reply. Yeah, Scarlett and Gray.
I knew a bunch of people from Ohio in Florida. The old ones retire on the Gulf coast like Tampa, Sarasota, etc. The young ones go where the jobs are. And they party hard! There's really three different Floridas: South Florida. Miami, Fort Lauderdale, The keys. Crowded, over-populated. Central Florida. Disney World, Lego Land, Busch Gardens, and other tourist traps. Then the rest, what I call "Red State" like North Florida and rural parts of Central Florida. Where time feels like it stands still. Funny, that I knew a couple of people from ATL that moved, and they bought houses in "East Cobb" to rent or flip, while they "living the life" down in South Florida.
She tried to pretend like all the "Florida Man..." headlines the rest of us see aren't native floridians lololol
Florida is the only state that gets more southern the farther north you go.
Oregon for stereotypes. You will see like hippies and stuff ig especially in Portland but there’s not that much lumberjack type things-ish. You could say that we don’t really have an accent either, or just general American. One thing Oregonians like to do is tease people from California ,especially SoCal’. We stereotype the valley girl accent and make fun of the ego. A lot of people that live in Oregon are from California though and the jokes are taken very lightly anyway.
Title writer, if you want to add Georgia, North Carolina and Ohio, they are GA, NC and OH.
If you don't know how to properly interpret the various uses of "bless your heart", avoid it like the plague.
I like these types of videos,, Need a video about red necks
As a Californian, I admit I do sometimes talk like a valley girl (I lived in a valley too) but that’s usually only when I talk faster. Moving to North Carolina last year, it’s super weird hearing people with country accents as it’s not very common in the West Coast. I still haven’t gotten used to it and most people can tell I’m from California just by looking at me somehow.
Also, it’s weird because my two guy friends are major red necks but they’re not that rough type, they just like fishing and dirt biking. I’m used to city boys. They’re fun though. Most people from back home would probably make fun of them tbh.
Since China is large too, it could be interesting to do the same exercise with 4 Chinese persons.
I had 2 Chinese colleagues, one from Shanghai and the other from Beijing.
And apparently there are some tensions and stereotyping too, there. 🤫
Ohhhh yeah. I’m Chinese American so I hear most of it from friends. But yeah there’s a ton of them. Some are fine, others are… not very nice
I experienced Hong Kong and I saw how the Cantonese is very different. When I was at the metro cinema in Kwai Fung MTR Cinema I was stunned hearing mandarin with subsitiles in EN and traditional Chinese meanwhile the audience were mostly young HK kids and a few uncles. It was funny because the language made me think... am I in China or Singapore?
Oh yes, California guy is here !
Love this I’m in Boston Mass so yeah we sound more like a NY too
I love the vibe of the lady from atlanta, please include her more!
More American difference please!
Something that was missing in the explanation of southern accents is that there is also a tendency to go from lilting to buzzsaw depending on where you are in the south.
Hunter is really gorgeous ❤
Most of these people hired by World Friends are models, actors, or English teachers.
@@Ivan-fm4eh i didn’t know that, thanks. What are these Americans doing in Korea?

Ian is cute
I’ve heard someone say before that Californians/West Coast people are nice but not kind. While NYCers/East Coast people are kind but not nice. I’m from CA but live in DC now. I really see that
Shannon believes in all the stereotypes. OMG.
Florida ppl are like australia with with animals, unpredictable.. (coming from a floridian)
Saw Hunter on the thumbnail so I clicked immediately 😂❤
3:55 Best part. 😂😂 I ❤ NY
I’m surprised Ian didn’t know who Amish people were. Or maybe he asked because of the international audience. What they didn’t mention is a lot of these people don’t speak English as a first language. Same with the Mennonites where I currently live.
It seemed like he knew what it was but it was a mixture of him wanting to see if there was new info and also his teacher experience influencing wanting to make sure it's defined for the video
True. I was in a Mennonite store recently in Southern Iowa, and this guy was carrying out a family meeting in the back of the store speaking Pennsylvania Dutch.
Wisconsin here, so, cheese, sausage, and beer. You can't really call it a stereotype, because there's plenty of video evidence of us eating bratwurst, drinking beer, and wearing cheeseheads on our heads on Sundays watching Green Bay Packer football games.
Monday usually sucks.
Shannon deserves to wear Shiny Black Latex Leather Catsuit with Black Latex Leather Corset with Black Latex Leather Boots, just like female artist Bebe Rexha. Everybody loves Bebe, so do the ladies.
Georgia seems a little bit more British with with the "Sir" & "Ma'am" (short for Madam) Also they use words like love and dear, but they can also be back-handed. Georgia is a British Royal colony state in origin.
Pretty much the entire Southeast are sir ma’am states and not all were ever part of British colonies. New England is not like that and were British colonies.
@@anndeecosita3586 But that has more to do with the wars and unifications, wouldn't you say, and the assimilation to English in to a country where English is not the official language.... Very American up side down and topsy-turvy.
The two most important cities in the nation are NY and LA, but there's always been a rivalry between the two. while NY is the financial center and capital of fashion in the nation, LA is the center of the film and music industries.
NY accent is amazing 😻
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I studied in Syracuse University and I loved living there.
Actually, I like the American accent more than the Australian or English accent.😝
My sister learned English in Australia and she tells me to stop talking like the Kardashians and start speaking decent English like her… yeah right! 🙄😂
Cheers from 🇲🇽
I met alot of different people from different parts of the u.s mid west and Southerners are pretty chill...but New Yorkers 😅 are too angry lol doesn't matter if you think your being honest you guys need to relax everything isn't about you😂 I got some friends from there alot are very opinionated. Which is funny to hear " New Yorker: WHat I can't get a slice of pizza at 4 in the morning...😡this place sucks!!!
"What! no pond hockey..why did I go to a different place expecting the same...
Californian: relax man🙄 get burrito and go on a hike...why are you still wearing a hoodie it's not even cold?
my aunt is so fun yet annoying at the same time she always wants me to talk like a new yorker when im around her.
Shannon deserves to wear Shiny Brown Latex Leather Catsuit with Brown Latex Leather Boots, just like female actresses Bridget Regan, Charisma Carpenter, Jessica Marais, and Talbrett Bethell. Thumbs up if Shannon looks phenomenal. 🥰😍🤩😘👍
0:53 "What DOES Americans think of each other?" 😲 Korean teleprompter won't pass my ESL class 😂 or I guess they just don't care about grammar.
I just want to see their reactions when a 3-way is mentioned. Esp when they learn it’s a food reference. I’m fairly sure only one person will truly understand.
Chili?
Surprised they speak alot of Spanish in California, and the Californian replies "its so diverse".
True statements but both seem to ignore the state was once part of Mexico and Spain.. like the people didn't move cause the state was made apart of the Union.
I swear my own countrymen don't know about states' history.
I mean there was a war, after which they were given a year to leave or become US citizens. California didn't exist as a state till two years after the war.
Yeah, I got surprised and I'm not even american... I know more about american History than this woman.
Yeah like basically half the population of LA is Mexican American so it’s extremely Latin/Mexican influenced. And that goes for Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas too because like you said we all used to be part of Mexico and before that Spain.
You do realize that Latinos are the majority in California right??
Edit: I apologize, I thought you said you were surprised Californians speak Spanish a lot. I agree, many people don’t know California is majority Latinos.
Yes, but the vast majority (like 99.999999%) of Spanish speakers in California are *recent* immigrants from Mexico and Central America, and their children, not the descendants from centuries past. After a few generations, immigrant families switch to English.
What part of Florida is she talking about. The Florida I know isn't overpopulated. I have family from Florida and I lived there for a while Jacksonville area.
More Americans difference pleaseeeee
Cant believe they didnt talk about family stuff in Alabama, even after the song
A landmine! No one is tryin to get cancelled in these world wide streets😂
Actually, alabama has less cousin marriage than other state. The meme did that because alabama nama in the title of the Song

Ah, I understand now why the New York woman did not sound like a New Yorker, she is from Buffalo! A world away. Go bills!
@2:32😂😂😂
07:13 08:35 😂😂😂
Correct, 🤣 NY are NYC, not NY State 😉. My mothers family are from NJ-NYC, I live in Europe, even across Hudson River (NJ) are NYC.
NY and CA are arguably the most culturally relevant parts of the US. My impression of New Yorkers: brash, brutally honest, workaholic, impatient, rushed, hard to impressed, able to mind their business or ignore strange situations especially in the subway at the same time will not tolerate substandard performance at work, loud, pay unbelievably high rent for inhumane tiny apartments, been leaving their homes for states like Florida, love representing their city.
Favorite nyc accents: mike Tyson, judge Judy, Donald trump, Danny devito
I would add Florida and Texas for culturally relevant
@@officerkd6-3.76 There’s not as much media in Florida and Texas.
@@officerkd6-3.76 I reread my statement and felt I came off as harsh or rude but don’t mean any bad feelings from the following statement, apologies for any offense, I am from Virginia so I’m not bias just stating my thoughts:
while FL and TX are well known states, how are they culturally relevant? Like what trend or cultural significance came from those and spread to other states? Like take music for example, hip hop is all over but the genre and fashion from hip hop originated from NYC. If New Yorkers decide tight pants are cool, soon the rest of US will follow. And we all know how Hollywood and Silicon Valley effects how people live not only in US but the rest of the world. If you been to NYC, you might be surprised how many landmarks look familiar because you seen it before on tv or movies. Whereas for Houston or Dallas or San Antonio, most Americans don’t know what these cities look like but a generic city.
TX is sort of a mid west, southern hybrid but besides Mexican food what other cultural impact does it have on the other 49 states? They are known for football but football was originally a north eastern sport. They are very proud of Whataburger and buc-e but outside of TX, not many are aware of their popularity. Like Tim Horton’s for Canadians. FL to me maybe a up and coming state. I think more people are moving there especially from NY, along with Texas many people and companies are moving there. My opinion is TX, FL, GA, MA, MI are possibly second tier in cultural significance.
@@vaccinatedanti-vaxxer if you don’t wanna put FL and TX in the same tier as NY and CA, fine I get it. But you cannot put them with MI, MA, and GA. Texas gave us the whole “cowboy” thing, and FL, well Florida’s Florida. Don’t know how to explain it. It has Miami, a melting pot of culture and it’s where iconic movies like Scarface are set
You are pretty much comparing cities not states. NYC and Los Angeles aka Hollywood neither of which reflect most of the country culturally. Also IMO Florida and Texas are very well known internationally. Florida is associated with Disney.
Its all about the Bay Area.
Yeee bay area Richmond 510 yeeee
I’m from ny
American accents tend to level off by the time they reach California except for the surf scene and valley talk.Ian has no accent at all.
Georgia and N Carolina tend to have similar vowel sounds and NY, well Newyawkahs are a world to themselves!
Buffalo NY doesn't have a New Yawkah accent. Their accent is related to Inland Northern group of accents. Only NYC North Jersey have that accent upstate NY doesn't.
Ian definitely has an accent. We all do. That's how accents work. Some people just sound different more similarly than others.
Channon ist lovely, energetic , funny and naughty
New York - New Amsterdam - Dutch - direct....
Having lived in California, it's so true that they only know about themselves, plus Hawaii and where they ski.
LOL another New Yorker not realizing he's a hypocrite 😂 (j/k)
Ok Hater 😂
You need to get some less populated states represented here. More Midwest and Rocky Mountain states.
I am mostly focused on the body language here.
Notice how the blonde girls' bodies are turned toward homeboy?
It then forces the two on the end, who are looking to be more neutral, to also center that way, and puts the natural focus on the three on the right.
Gwat
Those two California interpretations are both specifically Southern California
I chuckled when the girl was talking about old people retiring in Florida because they think it will be like a vacation all the time. I think it is more for tax breaks.
Where's Texas lol
America is not that different from European places and cultures, it's only bigger...
The diversity Americans have, are similar to European countries, not just Europe as a whole; even if that is also true.
In the Netherlands we have 12 provinces, I would equate this with what in the US is states if we look at culture and identity concepts.
No matter what direction you go, every 15 minutes there will be a different dialect, differences in the dialect.
We also have the typical North vs South and West vs East divisions more or less. Similar to USA but on a much smaller scale.
We say Italian as a language - but there technically are like 4 different types of Italian with slight differences, and then there are also dialects.
Or Spain with in this example case, Catalonia.
(Also in a way similar to the Netherlands and Friesland dynamics)
Canada is more like Belgium with 2 languages and French being quite dominant looking at a basic level.
The diversities we have in our countries in Europe is probably more diverse at times than in States of the US.
Our history is longer and more complex if we compare US to EU.
Looking at it from further back than US, indigenous history & pre-history there are a lot of similarities. We are one race - the human race. We have different ethnicities, and slight differences or larger differences in cultures but always with a shared overlap and human history.
Wow, this is completely wrong The US can not be compared to any European Country. The US by itself is larger than all of Europe combined. Also, our population is made up of immigrants from every country that exists in the world. We don't have a majority ethnic group or official language here. You can take just one of our 50 states for example California for comparison. California by itself is larger than any country in Europe and has more diversity than any country in Europe. The economy of California alone is on par with Germany's economy. There is no comparison to be made between Europe and the US.
@@emmanuelwood8702 Okay, I'm game; name the diversity California has. How many ethnicities does California have?
USA is broken and always has been... point being? How are people to assimilate to "American culture" & American identity?
Americans are so ignorant and dense.
The American dream is all illusions build on lies.
We have diversity, we have immigrants in Europe. So if we still had an Empire here, we could be compared?
You are talking about native American tribes as singular ethnicities?
In the Netherlands every 15 minutes by car in any given direction will give you a different "tribal" culture, with a slightly different local language.
You define the conditions, and I will find the comparisons from across the pond.
*Also just to correct you:*
In termen van landmassa zijn de Verenigde Staten en Europa vergelijkbaar in grootte - de Verenigde Staten is 9.833.000 vierkante kilometer, terwijl Europa 10.180.000 vierkante kilometer is -
*In terms of landmass the United States and Europe are comparable in size - the US is 9,833,000 square kilometers, and Europe is 10,180,000 square kilometers.*
Europe is larger.
I see your point but the US diversity isn’t purely geographical. We have a history of slavery then an era forced legal segregation that didn’t end that long ago. You will find families that have lived in the same city for 6-8 generations and who are culturally different and might know very little about one another.
@@anndeecosita3586 I am from the Netherlands/Europe we have a history of slavery [white slavery] what did you think the Roman Empire did, or the Moorish Empire, right before we did the Trans Atlantic slave trade? Tit-for-tat.
Our forms of segregation is based on colonial territories. And assimilation and discriminations for those that moved to the Netherlands, that is still not gone and over.
It is lesser extreme than in the US, but that basically goes with everything.
Here you will also find families that have lived in the same city, location and who are culturally different and might know very little about one another. What do you thing the history of wars in Europe has done, and the history of religious powers?
But we are not a Empire Island state... like the USA is. That is a thing the USA is different in.
But this is part of our Histories also in Europe. Empires galore that rose and fell.
california is the biggest state of all the ones discussed, yet the stereotypes including accent and weather, dont even cover 1/8th of the state -- e.g. u will get snow covered mountains further north and the constantly cold-ish San Fran where the stereotype is the tech bro looking for stocks vesting. and this doesnt even cover the non-coastal cali.
Shannon deserves to wear Shiny Black Latex Leather Leggings just like female singers Bebe Rexha and Ally Venable.
You should definitely do a video to see how many people can understand Esperanto
Per the shocking study, nearly half of all Americans - 49% - reported having fewer than three close friends. This marks a nearly twofold increase from 1990, when less than one-third (27%) of Americans had three or fewer close friends. Per the findings, a whopping “36% of young men” reach out to their parents first when dealing with a personal problem, compared to just 17% in 1990. Our increasingly digitized society could also be to blame for the friendlessness plague, as studies have shown that social media use can cause feelings of isolation. 63% of singles between 18-29 are interested in a dating relationship but can't find one.
Omg they dont known no memes 😂
General Motors isn't Ohio lol 😂 I would associate Ohio with airplanes.
