Seriously, some of the dumbest people in the world speak it. It takes no skill to speak. Whereas other languages such as Русский, Español, Tiếng Việt, 日本語, 汉语, 한국어 and several others require skill. I'm sick of hearing this comment about how English is one of the most difficult languages in the world. It's the easiest. Anglophones are also some of the most ignorant and obnoxious people in the world.

Not many. But surprisingly enough, a large chunk of them are native speakers, mostly American.

I think English is so monotonous language because it doesn't have distinctive male-female form.
English has less variant grammatical endings either, which makes it less attractive.
In contrast, Japanese has 3 kinds of characters that makes easy to find materials from bookshelves or to look up words from pages.

English does/can be more male-female depending on how foreign you want to sound. The boat, she is sinking! We have to salvage her!

The fact that English has about 5 million exceptions is the reason for people saying it's hard. I don't think any other language can come anywhere near the amount of exceptions to rules.
Then again, I'm from Norway, so I can learn any language easily.

How can Anglophones be uniformly ugly when there's no common genetic ancestry for many Anglophones? It's extraordinarily dumbfucky to characterize the entire English-speaking world as "ugly" and "obnoxious."

He was probably referring to the two most prominent English speaking people: the American and the English. And they are possibly the ugliest people in the world. (I won't include niggers in the comparison, because they're technically not PEOPLE).

Again, this comment is filled with dipshit stupidity. There's no uniform American "look," other than maybe the fact that 25% of their population is overweight. Sure, that's ugly, but when you talk about facial structure, you can't logically make a sweeping generalization, because ALL WHITE PEOPLE IN AMERICA ARE IMMIGRANTS. America is a NATION OF IMMIGRANTS, and as such, has MUCH GENETIC DIVERSITY, HOMOFAG

No fucking way. English has no gender terminations, no mood conjugations, etc... English is one of the stupidest languages ever.
