Per Bing:

New Zealand population: 4,302,010 (March 23, 2009)
America population: 306,108,000 (March 29, 2009)

Perhaps they do not teach basic math in your schools, however, 2% of 306,108,000 comes out to 6,122,160.

Here's the SUPER tricky part. Stay with me, ok?

6,122,160 > 4,302,010

Whew! That American math is HARD!

What do you mean the top 2% are "more than all of New Zealanders"? More what? I guess you're not in that 2% huh?

OMG you didn't get what he wrote! That must mean all New Zealanders are as dumb as you. You just made New Zealanders look like a bunch of fucking tards. OMG I am going to hate on your country with blind rage now. It will be awesome! Im so cool!

in general pretty stupid, but the smart ones are quite smart.

This. Stupid Americans seem to be very proud of their ignorance and stupidity.

obvious troll is obvious

True, but the answer to the question is no dumber the most other people. If you spend anytime living or traveling in other countries you learn this very quickly.

Americans aren't dumb. They are just ignorant. There's a difference.

Where? Saying "the top 2% of America is more than NZ" is not the same as saying "2% of America's population is more than NZ's population". The guy's post made no sense and still doesn't.

I plan to visit NZ in the future. I'm making sure it's the South Island.

Maybe the question should be changed to who's the lamer troll, Gayner or techs.

I'm sorry - I was in a hurry. I'll try to make my posts much simpler so that any hidden meaning isn't lost on you. I apologize for your inability to decipher my post. It seems rather silly that after every other person (but you) seemed to understand it, you continued to point out that it didn't make sense.

I'll agree - it was poorly worded. But apparently my fellow citizens (and maybe some people from the Great White North) were still able to piece it together, while you were unable.

Haha, they understood me. You didn't.

(Stated three different ways, in case you can't interpret one of them.)

Americans are smarter than the average bare.

Then how were you able to reword his comment?

Fuckin' Gayner

 

[TruePaige]

Well...

 

[God Mode]

America can/does import all the smarties in the world so it doesn't really matter.

 

[BurnItDwn]

It depends on the American.
