The Random Thread and The Curse of The Great Bambino

Holy crap, I'd switch out of his class. The more I learn about the evils of America, the more I hate this country and want to move to Europe. Dead serious. This is one of the worst countries IMO. Arrghhh.

As a proud Canadian who can't wait to get to Canada, I have to disagree. While I may not love the US as much as other people, we are lucky to have the liberties we do have. There are evils, corruption, and horrible things in every country. Sadly, it's the way the world is now. But the US is definitely not one of the worst countries in the world. Honestly, we're lucky to even have the freedom and liberty to have opinions like this.
Just saying.

British/Canadian/Australian English > American English

my welsh teacher is the most patriotic man i know.
"SPEAK WELSH SPEAK WELSH IF YOU DON'T SPEAK WELSH YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE HERE GO TO THE ENGLISH SCHOOL UP THE ROAD GIVE YOUR CHILDREN THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WELSH BUT FIRST YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT SURVIVE BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T SPEAK IT IT WILL DIE WELSH WELSH WELSH"

It's so simple, Allie. A cookie is called a cookie because cookie is an awesome word, and cookies are awesome foods

Yes, but America beat England in the Revolutionary War, thus American English > British English
Sk-uh-own
(cone)
I find him halarious

1. Cookies rock BUT
2. You and your Southern accent
3. I'd find him hilarious if he had an ounce of respect for other countries

I know. It's so stupid. Canada is at least smart enough to use the British spellings that everyone else who speaks English uses. It's like the US not using the metric system. STUPID.

I pronounce scone like "cone" and "tone" and "bone" the 'o' is like "bow"

YES! And the cinnamon rolls!



And took the "u" out of favor, color, favorite, etc. And we changed "zed" to "zee" and "h". XD.



I've pronounced it like "cone", but that might just be my Americanishness.




Yes, yes we are!

P.S. 69! Because I missed it last night, XD.

I had a heated discussion with a friend about the pronounciation of it I do the same with the pronounciation of 'crepe'. I say it rhymes with 'yep'. Ellie says it rhymes with 'ape'. We asked the server at Chefs de France and he said i'm right He also told us of a time when he told a family what desserts there are, the kid looked up at hime and said "wow, so they really do eat crap in France?". Our server didn't understand until later.

I know, but there are hidden things that just tick me off. We learned in Health class that Cuba has better healthcare than we do. France/England, I can see, but CUBA?

And don't even get me started on the homophobia/Chrisitanity/Bible Belt thing!

Will you go all Welsh on my butt if I said I love this post? XD!

Do y'all wanna hear my History Teachers opinions on some of the countries of the world? Let's just say, he's VERY proud to American.

China: THE PEOPLE OVER THERE DONT HAVE AN EDUCATION, BECAUSE IT'S NOT A LAW. THEY'RE WALKING AROUND LIKE FREAKIN MORONS BECAUSE THEY DON'T GET TO GO TO SCHOOL. YOU ALL SHOULD BE GREATFUL! ... DO YOU SEE HOW CROWDED CHINA IS? I WOULD NEVER MOVE THERE! NOT EVEN IF YOU PAID ME 1 BILLION DOLLARS! NEVER!

Iran: EVIL PEOPLE. *insert mean things*

Canada: THEY CAN NEVER CATCH UP TO US. THEY TRY TO, BUT THEY DON'T!

England: AREN'T YOU GLAD WE DEFEATED THEM? OTHERWISE WE WOULDN'T BE IN THIS FREE NATION! THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD! EVERY ON EARTH WANTS TO LIVE HERE!

United States: WE'RE THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD! EVERYONE WANTS TO LIVE HERE! IN THE MORNING, WHEN WE SAY THE PLEDGE, IF YOU DON'T REALLY FEEL IT, TAKE YOUR SORRY BUTT AND MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY, BECAUSE I DON'T EVER WANNA LOOK AT YOUR FACE AGAIN!

He is so opinionated xD I try sooo hard not laugh when he's giving us these speeches. It's pretty halarious. I should try to videotape one. I loved the one he said about China, there was more to it xD

don't forget to remind your history teacher, that without THE UNITED KINGDOM AND NORTHERN IRELAND (yeh, not england. England is simply like If your teacher said 'north carolina' and not united states.)

you would cease to exist as you do today. we gave you language and Canada. xD

I never knew the queen rules Canada too. I just thought it was the UK.

It's fine to be patriotic, but when you're disrespecting other fine countries, it's just...errggh.

Totes m'gotes man.

[begin how America is the best] Meg, are you serious? There's countries out there where those people are being tortured and limited to everything they do. America is by far the best country. [/end America is the best rant]

I don't understand why you guys have to take a pledge every morning...

Because, we're proud to be free! (from you guys xD)
I say the pledge every morning, because I'm glad I live in America, we're all so lucky.

ITA

But, I would never even think about moving to another country. Unless I was born/raised in another country, like you Allie. I don't get why anyone would ever want to leave America?

Yeah, I've heard. It bugs me. And with the Christianity thing, freedom of religion.

Well, Jade didn't say "butt", but that word she used wasn't appropriate

Separation of Church and State is becoming bogus now. I'm like "STAY OUT OF OUR BUSINESS *beeping* CATHOLIC CHURCH!"
