Eh? Kraken, show me a race that doesn't.


have you by any chance looked at a map lately?

Yes, and, as far as I know, Britain hasn't shifted to become part of mainland France while I was asleep.




(thank god).

:P

I've heard some arrogant things, talking to Americans, but do not tell me you seriously believe Britain to be it's own continent.

Nah, it's sort of a long-running rivalry joke thingy British people have with Continental Europeans. Probably because of all the wars we fight.

No. Not that I know of.

What the hell does that prove? Kraken, I really have no clue where you are going with this, every culture has its own interpretation of things, its own name for different things, its called: language.

That is except of course, those of you in the US, who speak English. :P

Not being funny or anything Kraken, but us 'damned English' don't feel the need to rename anything, I certainly don't , and I will say that earlier comment was rich coming from an American, heh.

Seriously 'Soccer!?' wtf???

(am I being stereotypically arrogant enough for you all or should I try harder?)

You're not listening, go look at an Atlas. We are not a part of the 'mainland' continent of Europe, nor are we a continent ourselves, I never said we were.

We are an island.

There is that little stretch of water, called 'The English channel', and thank God there is because without it, I probably wouldn't be here today.

Its helped saved our asses against the French, the Spanish, the Dutch and of course, The Germans, (and thats just off the top of my head).

That might not mean much to you 'damned Americans' , who hypocritically enough like to rename and label everything and everyone (rather simply too I might add) , by lumping us all together, but it does to us.

Dolash has got it in one, heh

(in other words don't get offended ) ;)

Helen Clark is a goddamn dirty hippy who disbanded the majority of your armed forces on the official stance of: Don't worry, if we get attacked, its in Australia's interest and is its obligation to save New Zealand.

Kinda pussy.

Still, i don't know if i agree with the other dudes maori policies,so meh

As far as I can recall (it was a few years ago now) Helen Clark only disbanded the combat wing of our airforce. And, to be perfectly honest, they were a load of crap. We had like one squadron of Skyhawk jets and that was it.

(They were so shit, in fact, that we've only just managed to sell them - to an American training school - after being on the open market for over four years)

And I happen to agree with Don Brash's Maori policies (although I didn't vote for him), but I'm Pakeha and biased so meh.



Anyhoo, on a completely related note, the results are due to be released in about half an hour. Fun fun.
