We are also extremely good at not buying Playstation Vita.
Have you met The Netherlands?
We have been buying our weed in shops for decades. Gay Marriage for over a decade too. Our internet is superfast and doesn't have datacaps. Oh, and yeah, we actually own that beepy bop music. We have the best fastfood ever:
We are also among the world's greatest beer brewers.
Also...

You mad US?
Was pretty much going to post this. Except for the fastfood stuff. Us Dutchies just can't compete with American fastfood. Deep fried twinkies? YES PLEASE!

You cats have shameful taste in hardware, that much is true. I didn't want to dog on you too much though since you're generally lovely people. Just a little... misguided.

All of the fattest people.
All of the most religious and ignorant people.
All of the gun violence.
All of the most stupid measurement, date, etc, systems.
All of the bad internet infrastructure with ridiculous prices for crappy speeds and low caps.
All of the worst mobile carriers.
But yeah, there's some good stuff too. Many of my favorite bands are from America, and the same goes for movies and TV shows.

The best part about that Newsroom clip is the utter shock on the audience's face at the notion America isn't the greatest country in the world.
The solipsism of Americans has always fascinated me. I guess if you have to say the pledge of allegiance every day you start to believe it.
The American project circa 1776 and beyond was a model to the entire world but it has fallen far since then. The political system utterly prostitutes itself to special interest groups including religious influence (which has no rightful place in secular politics). You are also keeping what was once the world's greatest economy afloat by both selling your future to China and feeding a military industrial machine taxpayer money laundered through unnecessary war and drone bombing poor brown people on the other side of the planet.
Sure things could change but it is hard to see that happen democratically when your electorate has been nicely programmed into religiously supporting one of two parties that are almost identical when you strip the rhetoric away.
And I don't know what to say about a country where 50 percent of the population see universal health care as an attack on freedom.
Apart from that, America has a lot going for it and is still one of the artistic centres of the world. Has the potential for greatness beyond measure but it is infected at the moment like many capitalist countries, including my own.

What does all of that have to do with rap music and fast food?

There are some countries in the middle east that might be just a bit more religious than the US.
The Newsroom should not be used as a model for anything, ever.

Yeah. Guess I meant "in the western world". The US is really exceptional (in a bad way) there. What is it, about half of the population doesn't believe in evolution? For shame.
Why bother moving when you can have a Rustlerz instead?
if you dont eat that by march 18, it'll be rustiling out yer ass.

Looked at the medal count recently?...
A dirty shame, beepy boop shit was America's lovechild. A true universal form of music, inclusive of sexuality and race. The kind of music that really encapsulated the American spirit.
Apparently it wasn't good enough so it became an export and the world went wild with it, transforming it into a revolution.
Well in the 2000s America tried to buy it back as the kind of homogenised product it only knows how to deal with. It calls it EDM.
What?! That is by far the best part of the day.

Fixed.
A German guy in America actually. I think that's what you are good at. Attracting talent.
Can anything do something good and not be the best ever? because god bless america, but it's not the best.

Yeah... no. Terrible health, education and legal systems, not to mention having to live with the reality of your country's terribly negative impact on the world can't be easy.
Not gonna lie, though, dat Pacific Northwest is a mighty fine area to live in and your country as a whole beckons to be explored... the great American roadtrip is a dream I think everyone shares, to some degree. And I fucking loved New York!
