Fellow Americans, do you realize how much people envy us?

Gonna be honest here, of all the countries I've been to there were the hugest discrepancies in England when it comes to women. Some hella gorgeous girls in London and Birmingham but I love me some of that British pale complexion.

There is a myth that women are ugly / pretty based on where they were born it seems. All countries have ugly bitches and hot ones, I have seen this with my own eyes having lived on 3 different continents and visited many country's, trust me,
 
I love America, pretty much everything about it. The culture, places, food, politics, you name it.

But

My 4 year old son fell over and broke his arm on Saturday. Took him to hospital for pain relief, x-rays, plaster cast etc. all sorted, and the only repercussion really was our weekend was fucked. If we were yanks, that shit could have very possibly bankrupted our family. You need to sort out healthcare before boasting about being the best place on earth. Other than that I would probably completely agree with you

This is as bad as people saying America is the greatest country in the world. Love when people say 'you guys' to a ton of people that weren't even alive when England oversaw many colonies.

I'm not talking about individual people. I'm talking about a nation, and the lack of an onus placed on England for terrible actions.

I don't envy Americans. But I live in Quebec so we have almost everything that you guys have. I'm really glad to live in a western country though. Western world <3

Didn't realize Europeans were so rude yet again.

You are working hard to top us since 9/11 though, probably long before in fact if you count Nam.

Keep it up, you will get there in the end.

I'll say this again. Most americans have health care. I broke my arm. My family didn't go bankrupt.

Wow..... no....

What you call "terrible actions," some call "civilizing influences" -- as always, the morality of an action is relative to the eye of the beholder.

Just stating my observations, not facts ;)

Um, I haven't been to the states very often - but I never felt like "oh shit, so jealous" or anything. Sure it's a great place to live in for some of you all, but I've grown accustomed to the... amenities provided for me in Canada, the particular culture in Toronto and the overall political climate (although it has taken a turn, it's not soooooo bad here).

India's had a lot of Indian prime ministers, and the U.S. hasn't even had one Indian president. And you call yourselves the best in the world.

If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged. By violation of the Nuremberg laws I mean the same kind of crimes for which people were hanged in Nuremberg. And Nuremberg means Nuremberg and Tokyo.

It's just one of these occasional "AMERICA FUCK YEAH" threads, half-serious half-taking the piss. Korey is quite famous for his "patriotism" although I'm never sure whether he's just trolling or completely serious.

Trolling, if many are to be believed.

Well if you are proud of your country, it's good to feel good about it every once in a while. Canada needs a battlecry, and lord knows we get enough positive press as it is.
 
Liam Gallagher compared to Kurt Cobain demonstrates just how much worse Britain is compared to America.

Kurt was a postmodernist that dislodged an entire industry. What did he do after Nevermind was a huge success? Hire Steve Albini and make an ultra abrasive record cause he frankly didn't give a shit. Comparatively, Liam Gallagher wrote music tailor made for knuckle-dragging idiots, unironically wore stuff like this and thought "I'll take my car and drive real far" was an okay turn of phrase.

Also get back to me when Britain produces someone as cool as Miles Davis

I never said our hands are clean, merely that yours are incredibly dirty and you seemingly escape proportional criticism for your misdeeds. Americans are made to feel like assholes by the international community for our interventions and misdeeds. So have Germans, for example. The same isn't true for the English.
What's your plan?

No plan. It's just a personal dislike of England.

Shocking that anyone can make you anything considering your big swinging military dick you were bragging about not 2 pages ago.

Ignore it if it bothers you, if it wasn't for our "expansionist" history you wouldn't even exist dear.
