New Maybe
but I'll still point out that you don't want to forget who was there lending a hand in '39.

New Bloody hell.
Jingo much?

And you're not even American, eh!

Look. Here's the deal.

I don't give a shit about what happened in 1939 (hint: It wasn't American involvement in the war) in this context. I am grateful to the members of all allied forces of whatever stripe for their sacrifice, but that's by the bye, because none of them are here, unless one ZIWTer is somewhat older than I think he is :-)

I'm going to take the piss out of Americans (loud shirts, fat, bad beer, hollywood, nu metl, rude, ignorant, wooooo), Canadians (lefties, snow, moosefuckers, Celine Dion, eh), and Australians (criminals, Neighbours, Prisoner Cell Block H, bad beer, Kylie, roofuckers, mate), and Kiwis (not as good as Australians, sheepfuckers) until I die. If the best comeback they (you?) have got is "But we saved your arse in WW2" (doubtful, I tend to give Comrade Stalin the credit for crushing the 3rd Reich, meself), then I'm minded of a couple of things:

1. They (you) haven't had a country very long, and they're still getting used to it.
2. Grow a sense of humour.
3. The French still look better, smell better, eat better, and saved YOUR arse. V. dodgy europop, though.

I might buy it back when I visit the US in the summer, if the exchange rate keeps going the way it's going :)

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
