I'm starting to dislike America
 
Americans specifically.

floatingslowly 03.26.2012 10:04 AM

What a fucking embarassment.


Rude.
Lazy.
Entitled.

I'd add loud, but I'm loud and this topic was not made to draw attention to my failings; other than failing to be born somewhere more civilized, of course.

Cultivate an English (specifically London) accept. You should have a few versions of this in your LANG VOICINGS sub menu. Try ENG-COCK-CHIMNEYSWEEP-VICTORIA. My experience is Americans love it and it'll enable you to distance yourself from their excesses by treating them as an exotic curiosity. (As they will you, delightfully.) Order some Earl Grey at the next Wrestlemania. You'll feel reborn. I'm assuming you already have the software that counteracts teeth rot.

yorkshire tea surely and a thick leeds accent do just as nicely.

How often do you hear "go back to Mexico"?

I'm serious. I want to know.

Bear in mind they have kangaroos and sandy beaches there.

How angry would you be? Not enough to allow you spouse to black_majick them, I presume.

EVOLghost 03.26.2012 03:08 PM

I'd be like a little angry otter.....a sexy otter....

Are you hitting on me?

floatingslowly 03.26.2012 03:16 PM

if by otter, you meant platypus, then yes, I am hitting on you.

if by otter, you really meant otter, then no, suffer my curse, americunt.

gast30 03.26.2012 04:14 PM

i remember someone saying i was an american
someone who seen the movie the big lebowski comes to me and sez that the movie reminded him of me

this and that

let me speak
give a short brief over america from a far vieuw wich can be more reliefing then when you are in the middle of it

america looks like
a drugepidemic that brooke loose
meth, crack, herion, pain pills clinics, tipical for america now
how many americans are effected directly, indirectly ??? i don't know
drugs traffict from the north with guntraffic and money from america
creating a mexican drugwar with most killings on the planet

ok that in the south
with immigration of mexicans

also a lot of veterans of old and recent wars
many religious conservative people
mobster activity in vegas and new york
explsion of pornoproduction

many secret security agency's after 9/11
the paranioa for real

overfull prison
4 million americans who live with less then 2$ a day

financial system that only can function for 1% of the population
fights over health care
where you can see that the american has envy on other americans to give them the universal right to health care
envy

guantanamo
humanrights crimes
killings of terror suspects by deporting them to other countries who have less human rights in their laws
to interrogate a suspect
and if he is innocent and tortured to death
no one is responsible
even if you have blood on your hands
death by torture is not friendly fire kill
because a friendly fire kill couldn't be stoped
and the torture of people not even known who they are
could be stopped

what's america more..pffff
the cliché's hollywood, disney land, las vegas, woodstock, music, statue of liberty
grand canyon, nature parks
indians african slaves

and that is about it'tha

just joking
and ofcourse the wonderfull nasa
with hubble telescope and other sofisticated technology

ok no we are round

americans have choises to make everday like all people in the world make choises for their life

gast30 03.26.2012 04:24 PM

you have to let it go now flowty
don't know what age you have
it seems to me like you have little bubbles of waking up in america

we are here for fun
we are not here to see eachoter as americans or europeans or chinees or russian
we are free simple free

find new friends people to hangout with

gast30 03.26.2012 04:26 PM

yesterday is over
like anyone is believing in something
it's always the same planet
and it's always the sapian that gets bored and trows itself into all kind of adventures in it's psychose

You're a good man, gast; much better than me.

gast30 03.26.2012 05:03 PM

we are to kick it
the rest of the people never will wake up
most of them are on a plain towards god

nevermind
i didn't know the population was like it is today
i'm surprized by it
and i can't do nothing about it
as i can't do nothing about the fact that i was born
so we are here...
what now?

for me
i fill that in with
nothing
needs to happen for me
i don't believe in the human as a force that should do 'something'

so join the anti-force?

last time i flew into the united states from over seas, the first thing i saw after getting through security was a fat guy in a mustard stained seahawks sweatsuit two handing a burger into his mouth

dirty bunny 03.29.2012 12:30 AM

Almost all the people I talk to online are dirty, filthy Americans. Mmmmm dirty filthy Americans.... they're pretty nice too.

gmku 03.29.2012 08:19 PM

Has anybody yet read "The Transition" in the latest issue of The New Yorker? Every time I read something about that day, I'm struck by how incredibly different this country might be today.

Certainly being overweight is preferable to having bad teeth?

Of course. I was just playing off of stereotypes in the same way you were.

I've not only been, but have spent several years living outside of the US (Okinawa, Japan. I'm a military brat). I also know obesity exists and is a rising issue in several countries outside of the United States (specifically, Australia and China).

Damn, you took a cheap shot Slavo....calling Sway a girl's name.

SpaceCadetHayden 03.30.2012 09:20 AM

is swa defending the americans?
we are sad culture
if we start by killing everyone with a BMI higher than pleases me, we can change things

SpaceCadetHayden 03.30.2012 09:20 AM

see also; the blacks, gays and satanists

floatingslowly 03.30.2012 09:39 AM

Please, no, some of my best friends are satanists.

:(

Who else will provide me with the virginal blood sacrifice I need to stay young. Virgins are a lot easier to find on the internet than in real life. I'm barred from their basements lest invited in.

:(

floatingslowly 03.30.2012 09:43 AM

Like, can I get a side of diet ranch, a water and a diet coke???

floatingslowly 03.30.2012 09:55 AM

Fucking fatists.

The waif-like can just as much a massive CUNT.

@annie: I fought the fight long and hard. It's pointless. We lost. Cunts. Cunts, everywhere.

Genteel Death 03.30.2012 10:08 AM

Today I'm let down by America because my date suddenly has to go to Brighton for the day. He is visiting from, you know, one of those American cities you have in the Americas. He told me that he will be in town tomorrow though. I'll make up my mind about the Americas then.

Not hardly...

But still, I've traveled much more than most. I doubt your average American travels to more than 5-10 states in their lifetime. I know several that haven't been further than the southeast.

I'd say I'm doing pretty damned good this far.

:)

(and I have no issues with America...but definitely know some shitty Americans. But until I hear about a place where absolutely everyone kicks ass, I''ll remain happy living here. It's a gorgeous country).
