Are you a stereotype?

I don't live in a log house.
There is no moose living on my property.
I don't get up in the morning to cut trees.
In front of my house, there's a car, not a sleigh.

The French Canadian stereotype is a little overdone :p

I do, however, use "eh", "bae" (or whatever you write it, in french it's "ben", from bien, which is the equivalent of "well"), I eat poutine, I wear a tuque.

So yes, I live up to the stereotype, at some point.
 
I live up to the bassist sterotype, I'm tall and big. But I don't live up to the Metal stereotype, if you saw me you'd probably think I went to prepschool.
I think Im kinda a stereotype myself though - for example I generalise Americans horribly, even though I try not to :(
 
I listen to metal and have long hair, that's sort of a stereotype, but I also listen to jazz and fusion music in equal proportions. I look, dress, and share the same interests as my brother, so I guess that fits a twin stereotype. But there are lots of twins that purposely distance themselves from the other.
