We gotta get out while we're young, 'cos tramps like us, baby we were born to run.

Especially when sat in a ferris wheel having a tea party with your teddies playing scrabble whilst listening to a compilation CD of Bruce Springsteen and The Jacksons whilst having a rave with lasers, and then going on the internet to find a sex tape involving Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman so you can unzip your jeans and use the KY jelly.

They need a news flash that no one else cares about their country!

It could be blew up now and I would not care in the slightest, the only thing that would bother me is that South Park would end apart from that...

So to answer your question the Americans have given us **** all but just take take take from the UK... Just look at whats starting in America next fall.

And then they claim its there own and take our ideas and make theres sound better.

Oh Patrick, you make it so easy to totally destroy any post you make it's almost got boring.....almost. :laugh:

There's a reason why US Television tends to dominate and that's because it's popular with audiences, if it wasn't our channels simply wouldn't show them. When it comes to the entertainment industry, America's is generally the biggest, it's pretty much present in nearly all territories in the world and shows like Lost and 24 have a bigger worldwide fanbase then any UK program can ever hope to achieve. When it comes to Music and cultural influences, they've also contributed a lot.

If we were to take away everything that originated in America, chances are we wouldn't be talking right now and our lives would be quite different.

Also our shows DO get shown in America. If I recall Doctor Who, Primeval and Merlin in particular do quite well and shows like Secret Diary of a Call Girl and Shameless do well on the Showtime channel when they were shown. The reason why they remake some shows is quite simply because our cultures are quite different and the general american audience might not understand the cultural references. While most remakes are quite terrible, at the end of the day imitation is the highest form of flattery. UK drama is so good that American networks pay millions to remake our shows instead of simply showing them, That's a testament to the quality of UK shows as it would be a whole lot cheaper to show the program as is.

Finally that Sims game you're playing was made by an American company....

In Scotland Gaelic is taught widely in the highlands. Not necessarily to be spoken but to understand the landscape. Most of the scenery has Gaelic names, especially hills, mountains, rivers, valleys etc. without a good grounding in Gaelic you would be lost in your own country. I would imagine ditto in Ireland.

I am not American originally, but seriously, the American people, are good people. I would recommend anybody to go and experience it for a while. NOt the regular stereotypical stuff, but go there and live in some average american town for a bit, and you will realise how comfortable they make you feel, for the most part.
I am from Africa, and we are welcoming, but we are very judgemental. IVe been in Europe, and they deffinitely just never make me feel like I am welcome.

All the time and effort americans have put in to telling the world that they're not just a bunch of fat greedy ****ers, only to ruin it all by spending £11.5 billion on chocolate in one day.

Last great President they had really[Kennedy]. Committed to a big change in policies. Very sad.

I disagree. I love Jimmy Carter. He's an amazing man.

Guess not enough effort is being made to preserve it, plus all the different dialects, there is that nationally recognised Irish, but people prefer to speak it the way they were taught.

well i don't know about irish, but North America certainly had plenty of it's own languages, but it's hard to focus on preserving yur language, when the English (and french, spanish, etc) come over and infect you with all their nasty European diseases that wipe out most of yur population.

Funny how preserving a language/culture gets harder when people are gasping their last breath. Especially when we are talking about a people who's history is mostly oral because they are a migratory culture. Carrying a written library around with you while following the buffalo herds is not exactly possible.

The English should be ashamed of the spread of the English language, not proud of it. European colonialism was disgraceful in every way. Worse than anything Hitler accomplished, imo.

We all would be appalled hearing a German speak with pride about the Nazi's, yet it's not uncommon to hear the English speak with pride about "The Empire" (colonialism).

Good post. I agree with you.

Um, England had colonies that formed 13 states... last time i checked there are 50 states. so England didn't even form a majority of the states, let alone all of them.

...And you guys say WE exaggerate? lol

England had nothing to do with my state, California, and England had nothing to do with MOST of the US states.

On the bad side though. The Bush Family, Ronald Reagan, Dr. Pepper, McDonalds, cRap Music, Britney Spears, The Atom Bomb, creationism (as a life style choice), Spandex, Musical Evangalism and FOX news! :D

Guess what? The English did exactly that....

To the Native people in the America's, Caribbean and other parts in the world.

You don't know a lot about history, do you?

Boer War, India, Malaysia, American Natives, China, Ireland, need I go on? Nearly every country in the world has committed terrible crimes against other people, Germany is not the exclusive bad guy, we all have responsibility.

i do but you can not argue that the english were even close to hitlers total of death.

and also not all of the english done it,it was the army following orders.

it was still created by an english person, like many things that have been created in america.

No it was not. An English person started the WWW, not the internet.

And what do you think the German soliders were doing? Not many countries can claim to be peaceful, I can;t think of any.

You know this how? Murder is still murder, no matter the body count. The English and other Europeans murdered, enslaved and raped numerous women and men.

and also not all of the english done it,it was the army following orders.

Hilters men were also following orders, your point is what exactly?

[Mystic Mock]

And what do you think the German soliders were doing? Not many countries can claim to be peaceful, I can;t think of any.

but im not blaming the german soldiers am i? im blaming hitler who started the worst war in history imo.

[MTVN]

So you blame the British soldiers for atrocities committed during Colonisation but you dont blame the German soldiers for atrocities committed during WWII :conf:

Your logic makes no sense.

That seemed to imply that it was the soldiers at fault for British atrocities but the German soldiers are not to be blamed for the acts they carried out in WWII?

It's a good question, I've always wondered it.

There's certainly a lot less awareness of Soviet atrocities, triumphing in WWII made it a lot easier to try and cover them up whereas with the Nazi's they were were publicly exposed following the war and it was made sure that people were aware of them. Even in Russia today they are wary of acknowledging the full scale of Uncle Joe's atrocities, and he is still quite popular with a lot of them.
