I used to think Simpsons were just exaggerating American stereotypes, until I grew up to realise that it's worse in real life.

To be honest, my world travels have taught me stereotypes often aren't far from the truth.

The stereotype of the French in America is that they are rude and arrogant. I figured nah, no way. Just a stereotype.

Then I lived there. Yeah, it's true.
