My country (England): Fish and chips - one of the best meals ever created.
Norway: It's where Hitler wasn't from.

I think you may have missed the point of the thread. Also, Cheryl Cole is only good on mute.Master Steeds said:
Scotland: the low age restrictions: you can fuck at 16 and drink (in your own home) at 5, or in a bar at 16 (with an over 18 buying).

My country (Iran): Will hopefully get nuked and the world will be relieved from the mullah scum who have nested here.joemegson94 said:
England: It's so green and full of nature.
Holy Balls, That's a big ship!AccursedTheory said:USA: No matter what most people think, audacity is a virtue in my book. And if there's anything you can say about America, it that we have the audacity to do what others think is quite ridiculous. From a political, engineering, or social perspective.
100,000 ton plus machines? We got that.

USA: I really envy how well you guys hang on to your freedoms. And not just conservative stuff either - human rights are a big deal, and it seems America moreso than anywhere else is willing to stand by that.Gaiseric said:
Australia: As much as I ***** about the state of this country, culturally it's great to have rivalries and 'discrimination' done in a light-hearted manner rather than an aggressive one. It's a friendly culture, even when it comes to things most other places take seriously.
Australia: Awesome accent, plus you live everyday with the deadliest animals in the world and don't complain too much about it, plus (to the extent that I've correctly overheard the history) you started as a dumping ground for criminals that was sure to be the butt of any jokes and just turned that right around to become The Land of Awesome.
Also, Steven Irwin.
My Homeland (America): Capitalism-friendly system that lead to massive innovation in a short time; food markets that have made Russian peasants cry (over the sheer abundance); the ability to buy Tylenol or toilet paper at 3 AM from a place just up the street; and an unprecedented method of creation that not only richly defined the rights the government MUST NOT STEP ON (although it's more and more semantically arguing those rights out of legal existence), but explicitly defined the terms under which citizens are free to overthrow the government.
Tell me one other country in the history of the world that has that last one.
Also, as I've been explaining to my nephew, we have such freedom over here that you can say bad things about the government without them being able to do anything about it; that's a freedom many countries don't have, and I think a lot of people here take for granted.
Norway: The best you can say is "Hitler wasn't born there"?
Let's try just a mild one: They created a "stage" show about pirates, for kids, that's performed on open water in an actual boat, and has awesome songs. That you're the fertile ground from which sprang Kaptein Sabeltann, that's enough for any country to be proud of; I wish we had anything similar over here in the U.S.

In less than 50 years we turned from a fascist police-state that killed people for there religion into one of the most democratic, tolerant and wealthiest countries of the world. That's pretty admirable.
