eh? how am i stereotyping?
it's got everything to do with culture. if you haven't been abroad to different countries then you can't really comment on this, but if you have then you'll know that different countries have different cultures and different ways of being. here in the UK it's acceptable to be a lager lout, drink to excess, and pick fights with people over nothing. if you go over to another country you'll find that that isn't acceptable.
it's a culture difference. plus the fact that Rodrigo might just think that throwing items that they need, in the pool like the mangle is a bit stupid.

Well I am Asian so do have a different culture but I don't act anything like Rodrigo. If I see people doing something which goes against my culture, I don't say to them stop doing it because it goes against my culture.. because it's not my place to say it... just like it's not Rodrigo's place to say anything to the housemates.
Also yes you are stereotyping by saying he behaves like that because he is from another country... saying someone behaves in a certain way because of their culture or where they come from is AKA a sterotype.

how long have you lived in england?
i'm really not stereotyping, it's fact. there are many different cultures in the world. in our culture it's frowned upon to lick your plate clean, but in other cultures it will be looked upon as polite.
and marcjswp, i don't even know you so no. i'm just saying some people on here are ignorant. don't know their names coz i don't care to look at who made every post.
