wales

I know its one letter from gettin' a harpoon.

JK!
USA here(Sadly)
I know it exists, I've heard where it lies, and I've also heard too little of it to feel its worth looking into - surprised it hasn't been consumed entirely by its neighbors. :0

Wales should get a little bit more recognition now that we have a premiership football team.

 

[Baldry]

In all honesty, I've never heard anything about Wales; no drunken incidents, no vicious murders, no bombings or anything. Which leads me to the conclusion no-one gives a fuck about Wales, not even the Welsh.

I know one person who cares about wales. It was brought up whilst I was discussing how I'd conquer the world and he said that him and my other mate would rebel from Wales and the Isle of Wight...Which I doubt would work but at least they care about the little people.

Well my perception of the Welsh as a British person is that they're just there with their little funny accents and the perception that they shag sheep, i've been on holiday there twice as well, it was gray and windy but didn't rain, so a bit like the rest of Britain. Also I have a couple of welsh mates that I make sheep shagger jokes at...They're my best mates so it's all good!

 

[Catchy Slogan]

There's a lot of sheep jokes? Why?

Because there are a lot of sheep. Most of the agricultural land isn't flat enough for cows/ grain. Hence sheep farming used to be a common job. Back in the day. But it's mostly different now. And a sheep farmer, by his lonesum all night long for weeks on end with nothing but sheep for company... well, you get the idea.

I know OF Wales but I don't know much about it. I always assumed it was part of the UK but after seeing this thread I now know it's not. It not even 8 AM here and I've already learned something.

Wales is part of the UK

Also: what do you call a sheep tied to a lamppost in Llangollen?
...
A leisure centre!

You're too late. Someone's already used that one

 

[Your Fearless Captain]

I know of Wales, but not much about the country or the people. They have a cool flag though.

What would happen if you dropped a hydrogen bomb on Swansea City?

About £5 in damage.

 

[FamoFunk]

What do you call a sheep tied to a post in Cardif?

No idea, but I'm going with stolen, you don't get Sheep in Caaaaa'diff!

I'm from Wales, and I'm Welsh, obviously.

It's nice here, I live in the Valleys surrounded my Sheep, not far from Cardiff.
I have a very strong accent apparently and randomly start talking Welsh half way through an English sentance.

[Embz]

also plz english people dont put up any sheep-shagger jokes i just want to know what the view of wales is in forign lands.

Aww, but it just isn't English culture without making fun of the Welsh. and French. and Americans. and most other British people.
Actually, now I think of it, we pretty much hate everyone.

And truth be told, Everyone hates England too. It is amazing how it works like that, don't you think?

Alright, let's test these Internationals some Welshicana.
What is the longest place name in Wales (Maybe even the world)?

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

 

[TheRealCJ]

My knowledge of Wales extends to that one lady with the big teeth in that Dr. Who spinoff.

 

[TehChef]

These are the things I know about Wales (I'm an American):

Rob Brydon, and that a sheep tied to a post in Cardiff is a leisure centre.

 

[MaxwellEdison]

Most Americans don't really know the difference between Britain and England and UK, just kinda using all of those terms to refer to the entire island. Scotland is known well, but its role in that group isn't, and Wales sorta passes under the radar.

Speaking for myself, I know of Wales mainly as "that place that the English make fun of a lot".
Sorry.

 

[googleback]

I'm English but I have some family in Wales, its an abseloutley stunning country.

And now to balance it out;

WALES!
Where men are men, and sheep are nerveous

What would happen if you dropped a hydrogen bomb on Swansea City?

About £5 in damage.

Depends on the explosive yield and what part gets hit. If it lands in the Townhill area then five pounds is about right, although in the more affluent areas like the Morfa area or the city centre then it may get up to about eight or nine pounds.
