Ok ill accept your invitation, just dont start crying again. I have no problem with americans, I just feel sorry for you guys a bit. I feel that there are many similarities between my country and the USA, but the difference is that people here are a lot more cynical and less patriotic which is a good thing. I'm not going to start debating with you because after reading your post, you seem to just regurgitate other peoples opinions. All i will say is this:Originally posted by T_rey
Now lets see 000000 come in here and start flaming me and america cant wait *^_^
- Living standards are better in northern europe than the USA.
- There is more poverty in the USA than in northern europe.
- The Russians by far contributed most to winning WW2, compared to the western allies.
- Sterling is at a high against the dollar, so actually i can import your goods for nothing.
- The most unbiased source of news on american TV is on Comedy-Central. That speaks for itself.
- America is dependent on fossil fuels to a level that is unsustainable beyond the next couple of decades
Of course britain has crap things also, like the food, weather, public services and tony blair etc... but you dont see british people going around acting like patriotic monkeys outside footbal matches. Maybe the problem is that you haven't travelled. I have been all around europe and north america, it does widen your horizons. You need to realise that the USA is not the best country ever and there are many other places in the world that America can learn from. You should spend a few weeks in Toronto, that place is amazing. I think Toronto and Vancouver are two of the nicest cities to live in.
And who cares what is or isnt a sport, If darts and snooker are sports then that pretty widens it to all hobbies and pasttimes including eating hamburgers and extreme ironing. B)
