Oh we'll show you!

Yes, Ireland is something to us. If it weren't for Ireland then we wouldn't have Leprechaun stories and Irish Cream. ;)

We don't need to rule other countries because unlike the American government we aren't all possessed by some form of immense megalomania that isn't sated unless we're blowing up 3rd World countries or diposing one dictatorship for another one.

Then again, no one's perfect.

That megolomania, as you put it, that compels us to rid the world of dictators is the reason you're not speaking japanese right now.

Brock Landers

01-02-2005, 01:59 AM

Yes, because disposing of Dictatorships is evil. Bad America.

Optimus Magnus

01-02-2005, 02:02 AM

No, disposing of them is fine, simply exchanging one for another is bad.

Optimus Magnus

Unless you were around during World War II I'm really interesting in your assessment of Australian military capability at the time.

And since you weren't interesting in that little global affair until the Japanese bombed you, your opinion on the war also stands in very suspect light.

Last time I checked, you weren't around in World War II either. So your opinion stands in very suspect light as well.

This would be semi-funny if not for the "big wave" headed towards the South East. Since when was the death of over 100,000 people funny? Satire? Hardly.

I think you're misunderstanding the intent of the "big wave." They're not making fun of the fact that so many people died, but that most Americans only know that region of the world because of the recent disasters there. Until now, we, as a nation (and I'm talking about the people here, not the government. I don't really know what the government has done in the past to aid them), have had very little compassion for them, and the compassion we have for them now probably won't last much longer. It's like Rwanda and Sudan.

Not meaning to offend anyone, it's like my friend says: Most Americans only know two other countries in the world: Europe and Iraq.

HAHAHA thats is funny.....I am from Hollywood, even though we like to call it LA, since, here it comes, Hollywood is actually IN LA! So many people think that Hollywood is just like Beverly Hills. In real life, Hollywood is filled with prostitutes, drug addicts and pimps. For about one block it is the Hollywood that everyone thinks it is.

Moridin

01-03-2005, 05:40 AM

I think you should constrain certain provocations, if possible. As I said in the above post, I didn't mean it to offend anyone, except of course those who have reason to be offended. So, unless what I said is not true with you, you have no reason to. ;)

Ironically, if I were to post a thread that insulted the UK or Australia, you know it would be closed down instantly and I would be accused of being an unfeeling American. Gotta love the double standard.
