Bad reputation

By thanks, my fellow americans - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - United States - Woodlyn

Today, I was again turned down by a potential host family on a student exchange site. Their reasoning was basically that since I'm American, I might do something to endanger my health, get hurt, and then sue them over my own stupidity. FML

Americans, we sue through our one hundred years of life... apparently.

Well, I'd say it's because it's "those sort of Americans" that makes an appearance on TV and so... though I suppose the host family is equally stupid, for thinking ALL Americans are like that. Good luck, though. ^^

.... people in other countries can sue, too. The difference is that the US is more prone to over-suing and frivolous lawsuits.
