Pst...other countries have the same capabilities.:|
[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]I didn't say I believed the British one. Just that it was interesting....since no one posts those...and funny...because no one posts those. You don't seem to want to discuss the issue...just troll my responses.

I didn't realize that humour is nationality-based. If the British video had been more Americans, would the responses be less humourous? You need not respond. It's a rhetorical question.
Did you even read the posts before responding?:|
Omg, how stupid can people be. Everyone knows it's a capital of Finland.rom11
Check out the French. 56% of the audience thinks the sun revolves around the earth?

It's all jokes. I don't honestly believe that anyone country's people are that stupid. These clips are just designed to portray that. The stupid people are the ones who believe that these clips are representative.

I understand that...but I laughed at the British link and got jumped on. Internet...serious business.
Yeah, it's funny, but every country has it's share of idiotsIf you spent enough time you could make one of these videos in just about any country. This is still funny though. A triangle has no sides? Seriously?

They probably paid 5 dollars to people who said those things.

America is a country. It's North America and South America that are continents. Go to Mexico, Chile, Puerto Rico, Canada or any other number of nations that isn't Canada, and call them Americans. See how far you get.
"America, a region encompassing the continents of North and South America in the Western hemisphere"ZOMG, fail.
America can be used both ways, but when speaking of Americans there are only one type of people one would be talking about. :|
Please, use some common ****ing sense. You shame your fellow Australians without doing so. :|

Go ahead and search up "America" in any atlas, or geography reference and you will find your country is called the U.S.A (United states OF America) is is not America. You will find America is "America, a region encompassing the continents of North and South America in the Western hemisphere" USA is sometimes referred to as America but your country is NOT America it is The United States of America. Do you even understand the meaning of your own countries name?Now please leave, before you embarrass yourself further.
USA is sometimes referred to as America
Whicker89
Thank you. Because it is America. Not the Americas, as you most likely misread due to your blind arrogance.
And I said colloquially, because it is America. No, it's not just The United States of America. It is also America.
Some of us have lives? as far as I remember you were either here or just left at my last post, and you were obviously back here before me.
Now please leave, before you embarrass yourself further.

Did you forget we live in different time zones, or what? I went to sleep, woke up, and went on with my life, then came back home to find your posts seething with arrogance. It's embarrassing for you to assume we live in the same time zone, since you thought I was waiting 10 hours. :|

Seriously, you live in the United States of America. Thats the official name. As a people you are called Americans, and when people say America they often mean the US, but the United States of America is what's written across your country on pretty much every globe you're gonna find.

If people call it America, then it is America. As it was America when it was first called America.
It's like when people call their country Great Britain. Totally not arrogant. :roll:

Well, you just generallized about 300 million people as being idiots who will give you a response right out of "kids say the darnest things" to general knowlege facts based on a single america bashing video that likely editted out TONS of people who actually got the answers right.
I wonder where there's offence to be taken in that :|
[QUOTE="Mr_sprinkles"]great britain is a group of countries ;)
The_Ish
Did I make that mistake? No. I was talking about other people. ;)
And last time I heard, Great Britain was supposed to be an entire island, not several countries. Or are you talking about it's political meaning?
Either way, arrogant. :|
I always love the argument on how England, etc are not countries. :wink:
I can't watch videos like this. It hurts my head.
It's not funny. It's just sad. And it hurts my head.

Oh I (emphasis on the "I") just generalized 300 million people? Really? That's news to me... I thought I just posted a funny vid with the sole intention of making you guys laugh. Maybe that's why I said things like, "I am American." Maybe you should read what you quoted again...

Yes, you. The original post gives me no reason to beleve you think otherwise, and your topic title is just pure flamebait.

Please explain to me, kind sir, how I generalized 300 million people. I just really find it hard to believe that I'd generalize the inhabitants of a country of which I am a part. :|
BTW, if you're giving me a hard time about the title of my thread, then I guess it's too late to say, "Jaykay!" Maybe next time I should put a smiley or something since apparently me stating clearly that I am also an American sure didn't get the message across that it was a joke...
