I'm wondering if by 'that type of lady' you mean the ones that are always are sighing and talking out loud to themselves? And its always in a complaining or scolding tone. There is one at my job who is doing it constantly. God help you if your desk is next to her...luckily I'm at the other end of the building.
that doesn't surprise me. there's was t.v. series here called "talking to americans," that proves how little they know about canada. i almost wish i could say it went the other way around also, but it doesn't (i had to take american history in 11th grade). but anyways, about the show...a mock newscaster goes up to americans and says tell them things like, "did you know that canada just switched to the 24 hour clock?" and the americans will go, "really? that's great! congratulations!" they've even spoken with congresmen, professors, and such, who pretend to be all diplomatic while looking like an idiot.
