It's a bomb. It's not funny, it's racist.
It's funny.
don't be so sensitive. It's making fun of a country/culture not a race of people.
There's a subtle difference.
Is it racist to say that Americans are fat? I didn't realize "American" was a race
The difference is one has no choice being born a specific race but a culture is a set of behaviors you develop as you grow up.
I don't see a problem with poking fun at the latter. Specially is it's as light hearted as this.
"haha, British people have bad teeth and eat beans for breakfast"
Damn, 1999 wants its racist joke back
