What do you love about you'r own country?

[alinos]

that where not america

Damn America, and their bloody grammar!

hehe i was fair sloshed at that point

i don't get why i got probation for that its hardly inflammatory

i more meant that my country isn't full of gun nuts, and then the religious fanatics

and that a bunch of the states already have laws in place to re-ban abortion if roe V wade ever gets overturned

 

[SimuLord]

I'm American and I absolutely adore the sheer volume of retards who make me feel better about my own meager talents. On days that I wonder if I'm not just a complete fuckup, I see John Q. Typical American and think "OK, at least I'm smarter than that guy."

The tourists / foreigners. It's nice to have a chat with nice people once in a blue moon. Oh, and the beer too.

Everything else is moronic. I've stopped liking this hell-hole the moment that bald guy who apparently is president said "well, Romanians should just emigrate because the government can do nothing for them." That, and putting a tax on my $80 scholarship the state pays for by itself anyway. Sigh...

I wish I'd live in a country where a city with 300,000 inhabitants has more than one cinema. And the video game shops have more than 10 games at any given time.

I'm apparently from Romania, me.

How could you forget about Dracula? (He was Romanian, right?)

Oh yeah... Dracula. Unfortunately I can't enjoy Dracula the Legend any more since those buggers sold Bran Castle (tourist-shtick-wise his trademark castle) off to some private party who, invariably, pretty much sealed its charming parts from the public and added unfriendly tolls.

Anyway, I actually got around thinking hard about this and I guess the thing I like most about my country is that the foreign TV channels aren't dubbed. So I get free foreign languages practice. :> Yeah, I hate voice-dubbing. It's not fair to the actors' performance. And always manages to sound horrible if you happen to speak both languages.

 

[scoHish]

Burgers and um... hmm.

 

[The Righteous One]

Well I guess the tolerance (the Netherlands) or at least it always was a tolerant country, nowadays governments concedes to every demand a certain religion makes. People getting sued for using their freedom of speech, museums closing down to not hurt certain peoples opinions. Internet getting censured, civil servants leading a propaganda campaign to demonize parts of society.

Hell its not so tolerant.

Well then the weed hell yeah!

England. I'm proud of it's history.

Errrr, all of it's history? Like High poverty for generation, discrimination, and almost no middle class, not to mention treating its colonies (not just America) like crap. Oh, and highly corrupted uper-class through out all it's history was really nice. (Not saying America or any other western country has not been this way before, but the brits were no better than anyone else.)

Then I fail to see why you quoted me if you realise that every other country is just as bad as each-other. Where-ever you go there will always be transgressions and wrong doings, because that is the human condition.

Personally I would think myself a fool and a hypocrite to like the 'good/positive' things in England's history than it's 'bad/negative' things.

However (being hypocritical) I probably had the various military victories and technological advancements in mind when I wrote that (I saw the SS Great Britain on holiday last week - the first Iron ship made and the first with a propeller - which is something like 14% less efficient that modern propellers! how the hell is that possible?! Brunel you genius <3).
