Happy Let's Prove Impossible Wrong Day

[Excell]

Don't give me that crap about "God Bless America" not being arrogant. Like you'd know...

I didn't meet one stupid American and determine they're all stupid. I met a lot of stupid Americans. I'm aware of the shit education over there. I was actually informed by an American that 94% of the people at their high school didn't know Canada was north of the US, and even fucking George Bush can't tell the difference between Australia and Austria - and he's not the only one, and I am aware of that as a fact. Not just one hotel, but six all had shit standards, and I'm under the impression they're all similar. The same hotel in Bangkok that I went to in New York would have three times as much food that's twice as good, and the actual existance of service. I don't make blind assumptions like many of you do. And I'm not an idiot like Porter, so he doesn't count.

Well. I plan on taking this slow. He met a lot of stupid Americans. Now let's look at Impossible's opinion of the forum. Everyone is stupid. Now considering that we have some very smart people on this forum I would have to say, not only is Impossible arrogant as all hell, he think everyone is stupid. That being said his first comment is null and void because he would think Einstein was stupid.

Next. I have never met an American who didn't know where Canada was. I live in Philadelphia....inner city Philadelphia.....where we have the worst public school system in the country. Not one of them ever said anything besides Canada being north. One country that I do know Americans have trouble finding....or did pre-Vietnam war....was Vietnam.

As for shit education......no. I will admit that Australia has a superior education system, but that does not mean ours is bad. We are ranked 18th by UNICEF in overall education(it goes by students failing out of school). We are above Germany, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal. The US also has one of, if not the, highest post-highschool university level educations. We have the most varying university level education system on the planet. Not to mention it is without a doubt the most open education system on the planet. Not to mention we have an enormous population which hampers education Impossible. So how is our education system shit?

George Bush knows the difference between Australia and Austria you dumbass. If you knew ANYTHING about him whatsoever you would know he's actually quite intelligent. He is a horrendous speaker. That does not mean he's unintelligent. Once again you make stuff up.

As for your "God Bless America" comment.....it isn't slightly arrogant. It is a song saying that God should bless America. There is nothing remotely bad about that.

What shitty hotels did you stay at? Motel 43 in the ghetto? America's hotel systems are perfectly fine. In fact, they are checked on a regular basis. You probly pulled this out of your ass too.

And coming at Porter is a federal offense on this forum so learn your place Impossible.


Don't lock this Jera. I will keep all flaming towards Impossible inside of this thread. Just make this the official flame thread between us. That way it doesn't spill out. Either that or get him to stop being so damn insulting all the time. Just look at the difference in our posts. He's attacking, I'm defending.

[Impossible]

Maybe it's just people from Florida (and Texas, but I haven't been there, thank God) who are idiots.

Ooh, ooh, now you're going to tell me I think every single person in Florida is an idiot!

I know lots of stuff about Bush. I may be wrong, but I heard that some time ago, Bush made a comment about Australia and The Sound of Music. And don't give me this "Bush is intelligent" shit. If he weren't stupid he obviously wouldn't be an idiotic C student whose "favorite childhood book", as he claimed, was published after he finished college. Not to mention all this other crap. I'm sure I could find more proof of Bush being an idiot if I wanted. What kind of President says he has trouble with the English language, anyway?

Ooh, now you're gonna say I think every President is an idiot!

I stayed at the Sheraton, and as I said, the same hotel (Sheraton) in Asia would be fifty times better, and in Australia would be two or three times better. >_> The fact is standards for many things, such as food (I was disgusted to see a line at McDonald's) and accomodation, are worse over there.

Now you're gonna say I think every hotel and every restaurant in America is shit!

As for the Canada thing, for the millionth time, all I did was STATE A FACT, you twisted it an exaggerated it. Read what I said again, I definitely wasn't lying. Misinformed, maybe, but I wouldn't be surprised...

And God Bless America IS arrogant, because there's no reason God should bless America more than any other country, but nobody else says it.

[War]

Does "God bless America" say "God only bless America for it is better then any other country on the earth." No, it does not. Its from a song that was made 100 years ago. Now shut up about it hamster bitch.

[Takarious]

What the fuck is up with you assholes? Yea, we have a president from Texas whom me along with most others don't seem to like that much. But you realize that calling "most people" in Texas stupid includes me, right Impossible? Take back your statement now or I swear you will eat your words.

Let me break down "true stupidity" for you. Making a judgemental stereotype about one place based on one person is, in my opinion, "stupid". That seems to be where you derive all of your ideas Impossible, which is completely nuts. Your opinions are obviously warped by your crooked sense of nationalism and minute experiences from which you've decided to make an overall broad stereotype of. I was going to keep my comments to myself until you decided to pull out that smart-ass statement about the people that I know (whom you have never had the leisure to meet, but I won't hold that against you because your opinion on the matter is obviously omnipotent in nature). Stop spouting out your flawed concepts and just ignore Excell like you said you were, you mother fucking hypocrite. Excell, I'd suggest you do the same, because the arguement itself is pretty stupid.

[OverlordBill]

The only reason most of these God phrases are in everything is because of the cold war and Communists don't believe in religion (Communists=Right). "Under God" was only added into the pledge in the fifties I believe, could have been the sixties, as an attack on the Soviet Union. That is the truth, look it up. Our "forefathers" did not put God in everything. God has only been worked into the country in later years. Stop arguing about it now. You are all wrong.

[Takarious]

Bill's right, a large percentage of our "forefathers" were actually Masons.

[Excell]

My problem with this is that he just makes generalizations about Americans constantly. I'm perfectly willing to stop as soon as he ceases to call me and 75% of the forum "dumb Americans". As for Bush. He mispronounces words a lot. That explains why he would say Australia instead of Austria. Impossible, you do realize your second link actually states that Bush isn't as dumb as everyone thinks he is. Plus, C student isn't stupid. C is classified as average Impossible. As for the childhood book, there could be an actual explanation for that. Personally, I think that was one of his truly dumb moments but it could just be that he answered it as his favorite book he read to his kids. That one I don't really know though. As for "all this other crap". Have you read the source of your information? American Progress. It's a highly liberal site dude. That's not a credible source of information.

As for the Sheridan and our food, that's just ignorant. The Sheridan in America is no different from any of the Sheridan's elsewhere in the world. Our food also happens to be some of the cleanest and safest in the world. Notice how we rarely have that wonderful Canadian disorder called Mad Cow Disease. Stop.....spouting....bullshit.

And how the hell is the Canada thing a fact? It is NOT a fact that 94% of Americans think that Canada is not the country directly north of the United States. This is my problem with you. These are NOT facts that you keep stating. I know very little about Australia so I don't "state facts" about it to argue with you. The only time I do is when I see something on an international census or something of the like.

And yes, this is a stupid argument. This isn't about the argument though, it's about getting Impossible to stop generalizing everyone and "stating facts" which are so far from facts that they're just insultingly and obviously wrong.

Oh yeah, apparently the next Dan Brown novel is focusing on the Masons. Apparently the American forefather masons too. It should be damn interesting but it's probably years away.

[Porter]

Can we stop? He's pretty much alone in this fight, and it's obvious his facts and figures are skewed, pretty much made up.

His insult to me...I can't even explain it, something about his constant behavior makes his opinion completly invalid. I really don't care.

But when you live in Australia, it's pretty shut in so I don't blame him.

[Ryan]

I think hes right about the McDonalds line lol. That is true... Also, I think he meant he doesn't like the way we run our government with the people in office, along with minor outlaying reasons such as our food restaurants. I think hes partially right there...

[Excell]

You're right. I must have misread his food comment. Yeah, this pretty much should stop now. I just wanted to try to get the point across. He has an ignorant attitude towards nationalities and it seems it will never change. It's the same problem that people have with race. They're just ignorant to the fact that everyone is the same. Whatever, this is over.

[Porter]

before you know what happens.

good conversation here, but it's inevitable what will happen if we leave it open.
