What you don't like about your own Country

I don't actually live in canada, but it applies to west tennessee as well...

 

[DefinitelyPsychotic]

Wales.

I hate people spitting on the pavements and moaning about foreign people.

You think that Wales is the only country with bad hygiene and xenophobics?

 

[DischordantMind]

In the UK i hate:

Most politics related things
health and safety
political correctness
celebrity culture
football
the left
our soft justice system
lazy feckless benefits whores
that i can't own a pistol
the media
unregulated immigration (don't get me wrong, i don't mind immigration, but immigrants need certain criteria to enter)
our benefits system
people who want 'independence' from their own country i.e. the Scottish national party
devolved government
ken livingstone
the unions
our governments refusal to leave the EU
the IRA

There is a lot i hate, but i feel that there is more that i love about the UK than hate.

You've just named more than I could possibly type at this time of day (most of which I agree with). Saves me the effort, at least.

Every time I leave my igloo to take in some fresh air and find me some moose I get stuck in the snow or the maple syrup. It never ends, I say. If I'm not busy getting stuck, I'm bare knuckle fighting beavers and bears, at the same time. If the hockey players don't stop to cheer us on, it's the Royal Canadian Mounties. Once the match is over someone always lends a helping hand, 'cause we're polite like that. The biggest annoyance of all comes when someone assumes we're American. What's that all aboot, eh?

Nah, it's just the one I'm in right now, so I'm moaning about this here.

Canada

The government currently voted into power was the only one with no plans for regulating ISPs pricing scheme.

EDIT:

Canada here, the only thing i dislike is the fact 75% of the english-Canadian people (and almost 100% of everybody else)i speak to seems to think all Quebecers are hell-bent on leaving, so i guess the "racism" (langism ? francophobia anyways) against french-Canadians (no, we're not french, we're french-Canadians) I love my country and i love my province, they aren't mutually exclusive.

Quoted for emphasis

In Canada, I don't know what I hate. I'm thinking the Government and the whole Quebec movement.

Didn't the Bloc only have something like 4% support in Quebec during the last election? You'd think that stereotype would go away after that.

While I don't like the fact that some French Canadians actually convinced the government to spend millions on bilingual signs in Ottawa(they had to replace each sign, they couldn't edit them), I blame that on loud people being bitchy.

Mekado, I'm sorry if I offended you, I don't hate Quebec (I been there before and loved it) and everyone (Know people who lived in Quebec who are nice).Please correct me if i am wrong but it's just that some people in Quebec complains about other parts of Canada that they wouldn't do in Quebec (Example would be -Dragmire-'s example, Thank you) and want to be it's own nation and keep Canadian benefits. Why people just be happy what they got?

I'm not offended, no worries i was just making a point hehe About the signs in Ottawa i think the capital city of an officially bilingual country should have bilingual signs, though i wouldn't have any problems with smaller french lettering,modifying what's already there, there's no need to replace the whole city's signposts... I agree that some Quebecers are very over-the-top about nationalism/language/acting-like a spoiled brat but hey, they're the vocal minority now, the separatist movement haven't had any notable steam for 15years+ and at that time they had something to say, right now there's no reason to go.

You're also right about some people wanting Canadian unity benefits with a completely separate nation, this is a ridiculous notion.Quebec would be pretty self-sufficient but there would be some hard time ahead for multiple years anyways, and for what ? being a french nation instead of a bilingual one ? Getting away from big bag Canada who mistreated us ? well ok there was a few raw deals... most of them a few centuries ago, can we let go already ? we have it good right now, and the country respects us enough to keep it bilingual.Truth be told it's probably not for the few franco-manitobans or the few in Ontario or the maritimes.

So yeah, sorry for the rant... long story short, we have it good in the long run being an integral part of Canada (we were one of the first provinces after all) and in my opinion Canada has it good having us there, i'm sure they wish some "damn frogs" would shut up once in a while but hey, we still have some french ancestry...

It's ok man, It's good to make your self heard and I should have explain more to prevent any confusion. I do understand that the treatment from the rest Canada in the past was unfair but in order to make things right, both sides must work together. As Canada give back to Quebec, people need to reduce the resentment to the rest of Canada. I'm sorry also.

I don't like that I am being drafted into the army of a country that I simply want to leave, to fight in a conflict that I want no part of.

 

[Aur0ra145]

I dislike double standards and people who wave you through stop signs when they CLEARLY have the right of way.

 

[Drenaje1]

United States.

I. Hate. My. Government.

I hate the education system especially.

I just, well, to sum up my general feelings, I would use 'meh'.

 

[Ready2Go]

Canada's non-aggersive way for things. if a university dean in any other part of the world used school money to earth-quake proof his office (and only HIS office) he'd fucking go to jail.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

America: land of the rich, the ignorant, and the downright stupid.

 

[irequirefood]

I'm Australian and a gamer. Hellish prices and bans piss me off. Other things I don't really mind at the moment though.

 

[Amberella]

Everything. Also, I live in the US of effing A.

Just two more years till I can move to the UK and be with my fiancé and his wonderful family. My family only use me for money, or steal from me. Not only that but I hate this place. I'm not happy here at all. Just have to save up and I can move away!!

 

[Last Hugh Alive]

What I hate about Australia:

1) The government keeps refusing to classify games I want because THINK OF THE CHILDREN
2) The prices for games are ridiculous
3) The despicable, underlying xenophobia that nobody admits
4) It's too fucking hot!!

 

[legendp]

Australia.
1) I don't like the slow internet speed
2) ridiculously high price for games ($110 RRP) as well as computer (paying about 25% more for computers despite the australian dollar being higher than the U.S)
3) the government banning games or removing content from them

Canadian

I hate how the government has allowed user based billing to even exist let alone spread, and I hate how most people I talked to in the recent election voted for the ruling party simply because they offered tax cuts. Then when I explained what the party planned to cut to cover those lost fund, people would look at me horror stricken. It was on the party website for god's sake. Money doesn't come to you out of thin air in a neat little basket!

 

[Thaluikhain]

I hate the assumption that all authority figures are stupid, rather than them having a complicated and difficult job that requires alot of experience to understand. Or, for that matter, being self-serving.

I hate the need for immediate responses, rather than waiting for information to be collected and discussed (when applicable).

I hate people who take pride in things they had no part in creating/preserving and which they don't know anything about.

It drives me crazy seeing it. They are idiotic racists that actually believe that the Prime minister has complete power.

No one realises that for a law to pass both parties have to agree to it as well as the Governor-General. So so stupid.

Hey? Surely they only need a majority in both houses and the GG not to block it. Ok, yes, having an unprecedented hung parliament has shaken things up a bit, but only in so far as is difficult to get the majority.

Though, on a related note, the people angry that they didn't vote for Gillard, when the party chooses the PM anyway (though swapping is unusual).

 

[are.you.the.god.its.me.vader]

David Cameron.

That pretty much sums it up. Smug arsehole.

 

[unindexedsearchengine]

damn Hungarian politicians, messed up our country so bad, also our economy is down the drain, and on top of all this all this most of us are just generally assholes
