You've Seen Nothing

You've seen nothing; trust me. I can estimate the number of egyptians I've known personally-- directly and indirectly--- in my life at around 40-60. You know what? Every single one of them was/is a bad person: dishonest, liar, selfish and disrespectful. Well, actually there is one who is good, but he's a math professor and he has a mild personality disorder, but he's a very nice person. All the others: scum. I told myself countless times that I shouldn't generalize, but I get proven wrong every time. It just doesn't make sense, why citizens of a certain country can exhibit this traits at this scale. I would like to just meet one normal egyptian individual who is a good person. Just one. You meet one, and you think "there, finally!" only to be disappointed moments later.
