LOL, canuks... is that because of our Canoes or what?
I wonder what Quebecers would call themselves... mostly the only joke I can think of is "Un bon vrai Serge". But I don't know if that applies here (I never even got it.)

Another one for us "Yanks" would be cowboys, since many people tend to think a lot of people here happen to be as such (even here in Wyoming, only some people are).

Jerry's - Germans. No one use that any more? And I know people who don't mind being called a paki. They have "proud to be a paki" in their sig.

French = cheese eating surrender monkeys. Purely for the pleasure of the phrase.
English = I knew a girl from saxony once who said they call us 'island monkeys'. Which i quite liked.
