What does your country do best?

[Erttheking]

I think it's time we get a chance to toot our own horn a little. We always seem to be saying how much our countries suck or how much other countries suck, but let's be a little proud and say one thing we feel our country does best. But before I go any further NO FLAMING! I cannot emphasis this enough. If I feel that this thread is going down a bad path, I WILL ask a mod to lock it. Let's just have a little bit of pride and fun here.

Now then, what does America do best? To be perfectly honest, after looking at other things that other countries have to offer, my answer may seem a little odd. Live action TV. This may only be a recent thing, but with shows like Dexter, Breaking Bad, House and the Walking Dead (Never watched the last one but I hear it's pretty good) I'm confident that while Hollywood may be the butt of a thousand jokes and complaints, we know how to make TV shows pretty damn good.

Ok then, I'll stop there. Now then, be proud and tell me why your country kicks ass. Also no politics, please, we are NOT here for that.

Does War count as politics? Cos, our military is ridiculous.

OT: 'Murrica does lots of things well. Our cultural exports are some of the last things people still want from us.

 

[Rawne1980]

UK does comedy fantastically.

 

[thesilentman]

Didn't we have this thread a while back? Anyway, I'm from India, the place where we... uh.... uh..... crap, I don't know so I'll talk about the US instead. We in the US have some good games that aren't military shooters spunkgarglewewe games.

I hear that Canada is decent at that sport some people call hockey.

I'mma go with that.

We also have the best maple syrup.

The English are best at queueing, we don't like it but we do it so very well.

We are also very good at complaining about the weather and the country is also best at grinding to more or less a complete stop at the first bit of snow. Any country wanting to invade us really should do it just after we just after we've had a little snow. We would be completely helpless.

Cheese, watches and neutrality. Also helping people commit tax fraud.

You should be able to guess where I'm from.

Lmao wait to think outside the box rolf. I was going to say diversity we have some of the most diverse population and nobody really fights over it. We get people getting upset with the Muslims but that has more to do with them trying to change the laws for there own person gain rather than hate on them specifically.

Also we have a LOT of natural resources which we trade with different countries all over the world and cut the US way to much slack with.

All that stuff's silly. We have hockey and maple syrup and nothing else. At all.

And we live in igloos, ride polar bears to work, and have five feet of snow minimum at all times of the year.

Obviously.

Brits are probably one of the best for complaining. Other countries seem to think we're all polite and "I'm going to write a formal letter" but you need to come over and here and try working.
People only say something about a shop when they want to moan in the hopes of getting free stuff.

Go on any Facebook page of a shop in the UK and it's nothing but complaining and whining. It's pretty aggravating, especially when people come into my work and complain about free food...

On a lighter note, I think our comedy is great. I may feel differently if I grew up in another country, but our comedy isn't afraid to push the right boundaries.
Our chocolate and sweets are pretty nice too.

Scotland does it's best to make sure you don't understand a single word they say. It's to the point I'm afraid of having a conversation with my gran because I understand about 3% of what she says. And I've lived in Scotland all my life.

We also like violence and pretending to be independent.

 

[soren7550]

Freedom, hamburgers, and explosions.

'MERICA!

Oh, and making the whole world hate us. We're quite good at that too.

HEY! HEY HEY HEY HEY!...I am PROUD of the hambugers that we make, thank you very much! (Seriously, they are DAMN good, I don't care if it's stereotypical)

I say America is good at making lots and lots of guns. There are some parts of the country with oodles and oodles of gun stores. (oodles apparently doesn't bring up the red squiggle mark)

Don't forget kicking burning terrorists in the groing so hard that you tear a muscle.

Uh, I'd say Austria has a tendency to not give a shit about anything. And also somehow always getting forgotten about. We're in no wars, no scandals, no big international announcements... nobody outside history classes even remembers that an Austrian was the direct cause of both World Wars.

 

[Fisher321]

America, well, MILITARY MIGHT WOO!

If someone needs to be exploded, the UN sends us in. Sometimes the world doesn't like it when we explode things though...

Hey, Polar Bears are superior to cars. It's a scientific fact.

And if you could ride one to work, WHY THE HELL WOULDN'T YOU!?

We are the first and last line of defence against the evil waters of this planet. No matter how high the water rises, we will build dykes to match it!

We also have legal weed.
