Say Something Nice About Another Country (AKA Goodwill Thread)

[Shock and Awe]

Lets have a thread about nice things for once. There are constant threads about talking shit but not many about saying nice thing about others. As we don't know each other very well on a person to person basis this will be about countries. Yes these will be generalizations but they will be nice ones.

Canada: You guys are so polite, utterly amazing.

Germany: Very Precise bunch, make some of the best manufactured goods.

Australia: Every Aussie I've ever met has been real chill; gotta love that in people.

Russia: Tenacious; if one word describes Russia its that.

Now remember, if you can't say anything nice get the hell out.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

The Greeks man.

Every time I've been to Greece, the people have just been friendly as hell, and not in a way that gets on my nerves

Now, that might because I was a tourist, but I like to think it isn't.

 

[Ljs1121]

Canada seems really chill and I can respect that.

 

[Colour Scientist]

France: The accent. Oh my God, the accent. Whenever I talk to a Frenchman, regardless of how they look, their accent makes part of me think "get in my knickers". My boyfriend has two French friends and drunk me had a big rant about how sexy their voices were, he wasn't too pleased!

UK: You gave me Doctor Who.

US: Your chocolate is absolute bollox but I do enjoy many of your TV shows.

 

[Instant K4rma]

Everyone in Canada seems so relaxed and accepting. Don't look to find that here in 'Murica.

I'd like to one day move to Britain. They, too, seem like very chill people. That, and they have outstanding accents.

 

[Floggo]

Japan: You guys are alright, that tentacle shit, don't let that get you down.
Ireland: You guys gave me Guinness and that is where my ancestors came from.

 

[TheIronRuler]

Switzerland. A nice diverse bunch, gun totting and very healthy, one of the world's first republics. Huzzah1

 

[PsychicTaco115]

Lichtenstein: You allowed people to to be in charge of the whole country in exchange for money

Brilliant

 

[RipRoaringWaterfowl]

Canada: You are awesome. 'Nuff said.

Switzerland: Great chocolate and watches, and your whole country is one big bunker.

Italy: The birthplace of some of the world's best dishes, and easily ten or more languages (living, as desended from Latin).

Greece: Much like Italy, only you only spawned Russian and it's relatives rather than the multitude from Italy/Latin.

Japan: Sushi, robots, a cool period of history, and an interesting animation style (when taken as a whole).

Azerbaijan: Your name is awesome.

China: Pretty much invented everything.

India: You invented what China didn't invent.

Middle East in general: Unique culture, made sure classical knowledge didn't die and brought both your own and the Chinese and Indian knowledge to Europeland.

South Africa: Popularizing the vuvuzela.

Georgia: Confusing idiots since 1991.

Sealand: The best micronation. Currently shaking it's fist at Britain, my country.

Libya: Didn't go fundie!

Chad: For teaching Gaddafi some damn manners. Also for confusing idiots.

Spain: Gave me the potato.

Peru: Also gave me the potato.

Wales: Someone had to. It's me. Your cool. Especially those castles of yours.

Belgium: Chocolate. The EU.

Germany: Averting catastrophe since 1950ish.

Austria: Setting the bar for living standards, and The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy.

Hungary: For refusing to be like the rest of Europe. Go team!

America: Us Brits might have invented fast food, but you took the idea and RAN with it. My liver will yell at you later.

 

[Zantos]

America: Thanks for some great comedy! We've not really lived up to our Blackadder/Fawtly Towers legacy recently.

France: Thanks for the cheap wine.

The South: There's nothing nice about you, you make me sick.

 

[Lethos]

The South: There's nothing nice about you, you make me sick.

You're just jealous because we have all the money >=D

 

[Zantos]

The South: There's nothing nice about you, you make me sick.

You need more money, your bar costs are ridiculous. Though I suppose it should average out since you don't need as many.

 

[Cabisco]

The South: There's nothing nice about you, you make me sick.

As a man born in Gods Country (yorkshire) I agree with this statement.

Well done USA for surpassing our comic potential as of late.
Well done Wales you are lovely people and we should all be best friends.
Screw you Scotland, screw you Scotland, I will dedicate my life to rebuilding hadrians wall.

 

[Zantos]

The South: There's nothing nice about you, you make me sick.

As a man born in Gods Country (yorkshire) I agree with this statement.

It better be South Yorkshire, the other pretend Yorkshires are kinda rubbish. Especially East. Though they are still better than Not-Yorkshire.

I think you are mistaken, East Yorkshire is the best part of Yorkshire whilst the South is the kinda crappy part with places like sheffield in it, Yorkshire is the greatest place on earth in spite of it.

Still, it could be worse and we could be not yorkshire.

Spoiler: North Korea's animation made me laugh harder than I have in years

Dear Germany, Thanks for all those writers, philosophers and scientists, all the Germanic languages, and also some pretty great music.
Dear Japan, Thank you for Nintendo, Sony, Akira Kurosawa, and just a cool culture in general.
Dear Italy, Thanks for the food. Seriously. Major props.
Dear China, Thanks for the Chinese restaurants. I know they're nothing like what you're eating, but it's still good stuff.
Dear England, Thanks for some more great writers, and God bless you for your musicians.
Dear all of the Middle East, Thanks for being the cradle of civilization and stuff. Sorry things haven't been working out for you for the last... millennium or so. Also, thanks for numbers.
Dear various Latin American countries, thanks for potatoes, chocolate, and Latin dances.
Dear all of Africa, Thanks for making me grateful that I don't live there.

Japan - They made Persona 4.

And I hear Canada's a pretty neat country, so that too.
