Actually I hate all countries that start with the letter A - without discrimination... Wait a second. Oh shit. ;)

No you're absolutely right - thanks for defending me. I think it's often very hard not to feel personally attacked when people are attacking something about your country - but I hope that people do understand the difference.

Regarding borrowing sugar - good call Brad - but I still think it's a funny joke :D - emphasis on joke. It doesn't have to be true 8O

ha don't worry, I know you have a cool sense of humour :D

Damn, that thing looks like it should be in some new horror movie. It looks evil.




No. I'm serious. it's freaking me out, man.

I'm tempted to make it my life long mission to wipe those cursed things out. (wonders if he should put on his stompin' boots?)

Yeah -- I think it has a lot to do with that crooked pupil @______@

On another note, the country's name is "The United States of America", not "America". Calling a citizen of the United States of America an American is a huge generalization, and includes every person in three continents.

So does that mean you, and other Canadians don't mind if I call you guys American's too? - I often refer to "North American's" because I think people get confused if I say "American" and because I've always thought Canadians get offended if you call them American - but is that not the case?


What the fuck is the topic about actually.

Misused apostrophes? ;)
Why not call them USAers and us Canadians, instead of generalizing together all North Americans, Central Americans and South Americans?

Because sometimes I talk about the footbag scene in North America - Canada and The US - and I guess since South and Central America don't have scenes as far as I know - I could really refer to all of the Americas. Um I think the point is that sometimes you do generalise together whole continents or even more - I often refer to the scene in Europe too - rather than each individual country.

Kevin your picture rocks. That Kangaroo looks just like Skippy, my pet kangaroo which I take for walks every day just like a dog. Kangaroo poo is so much nicer to put into a bag too.

Yeah Kangaroos are a very common pet in Australia - they're very tame and easy to look after. Some of the bigger ones hit you occasionally, but if you wack them on the nose they quickly learn the lesson. They're also very good at communicating with nose gestures.

Hey, I didn't realise your Kangaroo was called Skippy. Mine is too. She's two and I'm looking to breed a litter of Joeys for next year.

Edited: Because I used dictionary.com and becauseI can't spell.

When I was a lad growing up in Brisbane I had a kangaroo named Skippy but it got sprayed by a cane toad and died.

EDIT: Gareth, I grew up on Hawken drive, St. Lucia(?) Went to Ironside gradeschool(?) Do you know where that is? Does it still exist?
