You'll never drink tea with quite as much dignity as we do.

Also... USA doesn't have bagged milk. -1 point for you.

Also... USA isn't the number one lumber exporter in the world. -2 points for you.

Hockey. :|

Last time I checked. The USA Junior Women's team got owned by Canada's Juinor Women's team 5 to 1 for the Gold.

Not only that but Canada is number one in Hockey. Your post holds no validity.

Having travelled all over Canada, where im from, ive seen it really is amazing. Ive climbed Gros Morne in Newfoundland, walked the ice glaciers in B.C., camped in the massively large forests of northern Ontario. For just scenery alone, Canada is something else.

[QUOTE="MissRiotmaker"][QUOTE="B05T0N"][QUOTE="MissRiotmaker"][QUOTE="YourChaosIsntMe"]

I've noticed that we're all from NA and Europe...

Anyway, MissRiotMaker. On the first page, you misinterpreted a post, then replied...with an assertion that someone misinterpreted your post. Start making sense. The poster referring the England directing the time of the rest of the world was referring the Prime Meridian. Technically, the world's time revolves around England, though only because the Prime Meridian runs through Greenwich (and you could say the same for 8 other countries - view Wikipedia's entry on the Prime Meridian to see the list. So realistically, Togo could also be said to dictate the world's time. The poster's assertion is a product of his nationalism, Understood?

A little bit of an inferiority complex, maybe? You lose 1,000 points for not being from the U.S. Hahahahahaha. Because people care about women's hockey, right? I know I do. I love hockey. My favorite team? Not Ottawa. No. It's uh...some women's team that I don't know the name of. Oh wait, it's the Senators.

Sometimes, when I watch world cup soccer, I go to my local English pub and pretend not to be American. I root for the English national team during the cup. Now THAT'S a case of a national identity crisis. My name's Nigel, mate. any 'ol geezer tries to say sumfink about the team and I'll cut the bloke from eah ta eah.

Either way, the U.S. owns soul because we have single-handedly assured the continuation of our (European and North American) collective control over world economics. Hahahahaha, social and economic inequity is humorous.

B05T0N

Well arn't you just the cutest little arguement-ender of all arguement-enders. I stifled a yawn after the first sentence and stopped reading there.

It's 'argument'...

It 'can' be spelt either way. Arn't you the cutest little grammar Nazi. F-A-I-L

No it cannot...

Likewise, 'spelt,' though correct, is widely considered to be archaic. Yes, you may use it, certainly. Also, sarcasm signifies a lack of intellectual capacity on the part of an individual who would like others to believe that they are exceptionally intelligent and clever. You're one of the most obnoxious people I've come across in GS.

Northern Ireland......

We have the oldest brewry in the northern hemisphere,

We constantly tell are larger neighbour to the south to "pi** of" your not stealing our land, No Surrender.Quis Serbatis all that jazz.

we have hexagonal rocks (clearly your jealous),

Giants (mythological yes but there here hiding in the woods) ,

We invented the petrol bomb (because were very nice people),

We beat England at football and made a song up about it,

We officialy have the best football fans in the world (acording to FIFA),

The only international football team to beat an oponent ranked 100 places above them in the world.

Smallest country to reach the world cup knock out stages.

Second smallest country to ever qualify for the world cup (dam you trinidad and tobago)

The undertones (anyone who says teenage kicks isn't a good song LIES ,very badly may it be added),

are transport system isn't privatised :) and therfore actually runs on time,

we are ranked 3rd in the world for the quality of education (unfortunatly there no jobs but you can't have all the eggs in your basket),

4th highest alcohal consumption rate in the world ( Well ovetake the Checz, Germans and Irish some day).

I got bored writing.

Actually , the Russians created the petrol bomb ...

And I don't know what you mean about "Stealing our land" because it was we who owned it in the first place before England came and stole it.

According to Wikipedia the Finnish made the molotov cocktail/petrol bomb to fight the Soviets, but it was named after a Soviet Minister!

- Because we can decide to be Irish or British depending on the situation. :P

- Because we offically have the best wall murals ever

- Because we have the greatest Whiskey in the world, Bushmills

The UK -- because we have REAL beer. :PNinja-Hippo

That's a very, very, very good reason. You get Boddington's and Newcastle on the cheap. We get Budweiser and Icehouse. It's obvious which country wins on the beer front.

We do have 40s, nothing says balls like a 40 oz of Mickey's.

Yeah, but the English owned the area of Iraq for a much longer period of time than the U.S. No one really "owns" the Middle East. We shared it like good imperialists throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, and we now exploit and marginalize the organized states and their people like good capitalist profiteers, for our collective benefit.

Really cool in the winter

Indeed, the funny thing about the Senators is that they're either nearly good enough to reach the Stanley Cup (but don't), or just under perform throughout the entire season. We haven't actually won since, what, 1921 or 1922? We haven't seen an exceptional team since the 20's and earlier, but for that period of time, they were on the same level as Montreal. We will see it in our lifetime, we will. Wasn't it just three or four seasons ago that Ottawa came close to competing for the cup? I think it was the year the Lightning won (who are from my city). Funny thing is, I think there were only like 3 Americans on the Lightning's roster the year they won. How ineffectual is that?

So has anyone else come to the conclusion that U.S., U.K., Ireland, Northern Ireland, Germany, France, Canada, Denmark, et cetera ALL own? We have our differences culturally, politically, and economically, certainly, and we have just as many similarities in those same contexts. The fact that many of us, especially those of us in the U.S., U.K., Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Canada converse with each other so effectively (often without any consideration for each other's nationality) really emphasizes the interrelated nature of our nations and cultures. I may appreciate the U.S., but I could easily make a home in Canada or England. The same can't be said for Japan, U.A.E., Mexico, or almost any other nation-state, I can't even say the same thing for countries like France or Germany.

We've been in a slump lately:(

Canada? Why?

Cause we're cool 8)

Really cool in the winter

Indeed, the funny thing about the Senators is that they're either nearly good enough to reach the Stanley Cup (but don't), or just under perform throughout the entire season. We haven't actually won since, what, 1921 or 1922? We haven't seen an exceptional team since the 20's and earlier, but for that period of time, they were on the same level as Montreal. We will see it in our lifetime, we will. Wasn't it just three or four seasons ago that Ottawa came close to competing for the cup? I think it was the year the Lightning won (who are from my city). Funny thing is, I think there were only like 3 Americans on the Lightning's roster the year they won. How ineffectual is that?

Actually, Ottawa won their last Cup in 1927, the inaugural NHL season to boot...Go to the NHL website to see the list of Cup champs..Goes back even to the Montréal AAA, the very first winners of Lord Stanley's Cup.

EDIT: Because I'm a nice person.:P

Here is the list of the champions and finalists.

[QUOTE="UrbanSpartan125"]America, because we invented the internet, landed on the moon and we own.Taegukki

not in Iraq rofl

Actually we do own in Iraq. Saddams Army at one point the 4th largest in the world was obiliterated in 2 weeks. Violence in Iraq is down 80% after the surge, so yeah we still own.

Yeah, but the English owned the area of Iraq for a much longer period of time than the U.S. No one really "owns" the Middle East. We shared it like good imperialists throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, and we now exploit and marginalize the organized states and their people like good capitalist profiteers, for our collective benefit.

I like your avatar, Urban Spartan. Don't worry, I won't. ;)

They meant the leet speak type of 'own' like 'pwn3d'. Not like you actually possess Iraq.

Oh, I'm aware of that. I was simply trying to express the fact that "owning" Iraq (figuratively or literally) could just as easily be a reason for the superiority of England as it could be for the U.S.

well China is now the world's #1 superpower, so as much as I hate to say it, China owns.
