Amazing. America sucks yet somehow we manage to have the Worlds most powerfull Military and the #1 enconomy. Sounds like a case of penis envy...
You have the "world's most powerful military" and you're still getting your asses kicked by peasants with AK47s. Your economy is based on a literally worthless currency.
No I don't, I speak for the Masses. Lets take a look at some of the movies that have gained critical acclaim across the WORLD. Braveheart, Best Picture Saving Private Ryan, Best Picture Silence of the Lambs, Best Picture, Best Actor, Denzel Washington, for playing a muderous Renegade Cop Best Actor, Anthony Hopkins, for a playing a muderous psychotic serial killer Platoon, Best Picture, for showing the bloody horrors of the vietman war Gladiator, Best Picture, for showing the horrors of Ancient Rome I can go on, yeah you may not like these movies, but 90% of the poplulation sure does. You're the exception LEO, not the RULE! And look how our American Leaders, or other World Leaders handle conflicts. By butchering the civilian populations until their Government submits. Human beings are no better then a virus. Because we kill ALL weaker organisims. The only thing that's changed is the reason for which we commit these attrocities. But at the end of the day, thousands of people will be murderd today before Sundown. We are a species of Death.
Schleebenhorst, your anger is well found but foul placed. The americans are no worse than any other human being on the planet. And they have achived a lot. And knowledge should be both shared and assimilated. It's not their world if the rest of the world chooses not to change their point of view, and lose pace. And US is no empire. YET. Empire requires an imperator, so to speak. And to achive this, US just needs to make enough enemies that democracy can be scraped along with freedom of speech in National Security. Let's just say that I'm worried..
No. Rock and roll is a good thing despite slavery. No hay mal que por bien no venga, as Gloria Estefan says. If something bad has already happened there's not only nothing wrong with extracting the good from it, but it's karmic. We're not quite so ignorant of history. We have a chain of computer stores called Boole and Babbage. John Logie Baird is not exactly a well-known name in America but the story is. We know that the first working prototype of a televised program did not take place in America. By the way, we also know that Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone, he just got his patent application in to the government office a little earlier than than Elisha Gray. Antonio Meucci on the other hand is forgotten, after driving a Fiat or riding a Ducati no American can believe that Italian technology might actually work. Excuse me, but the working definition of "creativity" is to take two or more existing things and put them together in a new way. In some cases such as Bell, one of those 'things" is the inventor and the other is an environment that he finds inspiring. In the case of the computer, one of those things was an abstract idea with excruciatingly limited practical application and the other was electronics. Unless you're a god you cannot actually "create" anything. At the most decompositional level all you're doing is rearranging existing atoms. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! So we like to trumpet. Every nation's character has a few attributes that grate on outsiders.
belgians are incessant complainers and shifty backstabbing fuckers. that doesnt mean i hate the whole nation.
Just as I predicted at the beginning, …..this forum is an exact reflection of the masses. :m: From the tensions pulling towards an Islamic revolution we drifted to military gadgets between us and China, to jazz and pop music, to prostitution as a fundamental survival of civilization, to originality of inventions, to the rapping RAP, to Hollywood’s world recognition, ….to even calling Belgium a nation! I wouldn’t be surprise if it develops further into Michael Jackson’s underwear! Why you miserable souls even bother to squeeze your brains. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
