why group england and america?

America

America. :D

why group england and america?

Same difference, really.

why group england and america?

1) only allowed 5 options

2) we have, to quote tony, a special relationship :lol:

USA, New England, New Hampshire, Manchester (we want to be england or something)

USA, New England, New Hampshire, Manchester (we want to be england or something)

very nice place, New hampshire. I went to Berlin, new hamphire to go bowling when I was on skiing holiday

Sweden!

(Why was "Scandinavia" grouped with "Other"...? :?

Eire and Holland? How bizarre!
I'm from the Isle of Man, so I guess that's "other"

What special relationship do Ireland and Holland have? None, imo :?

I understand that there can only be 5 options, but wouldn't:

1. US/Canada
2. UK/Ireland
3. Cont. Europe
4. Australia/NZ
5. Other

make a bit more sense?

Why group australia and canada?! lol

I am Australian, and proud to be so (but I believe that still gives me the right to detest the actions of my government on occassion). But enough of the sermon.

Crikey, though, why group Australia with Canada? New Zealand is probably a little closer both geographically and culturally/historically although we Aussies do worder about why their sheep usually looke so frightened :lol:

In case you didn't know... England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales are all part of Britain... Tony Blair refers to 'us' as Britain, not just England... well, mostly he's speaking for himself, but he likes to think that Britain thinks the same as him.

I live up here! :wink:

Hell, Australia and New Zealand should probably be the same country I reckon. We're so alike in many ways.

australia pwns new zealand

I have an good Idea (for once).
Why don't you do continents, ie Europe, North & South America, Ocenia, Asia etc etc?

You know, I was thinking the same Snoro...

Why is it that america has this great need to make small towns named after other countries cities? its time for a libel action I feel...

And they name their cities after cities too... New YORK, New ORLEANS, etc... there's even a place called Dundee!

australia pwns new zealand

Pardon my ignorance.

Please explain the word/abbreviation/ whatever of "pwns".

Crikey.

'crikey' @!#^%@(^$#)(*$)(*$!!!!

'crikey' @!#^%@(^$#)(*$)(*$!!!!

Sighs. Not really that helpful mate.

Please explain the word/abbreviation/ whatever of "pwns".

I think it was a typo, p is quite close to o, think he ment 'owns'

pwn is 1337 for own, i believe

Cool! "Scandinavia or other" is doing well. :D

G'day everyone... today, were gonna kill things!! so lets get out, anmd kill some of those buggers, whilst being complete morons eh?

...damn i despise that guy... although i won a Mars Bar once for impersonating him :oops:

crikey, i have someone who impersonates me? crikey!

where i live is in a house
it is in a valley that is less home to me
then the mountains next to it
it is in something of a defacto city
that is less of a home to me then the countryside of those mountains
it is at the base of those mountains
it is more then 100 but less then 150 miles in most direct line
from the pacific coast of north america
the government that claims soverignty over this place
does not represent me, however much it might claim to
i have little doubt it could be worse
but also great certainty it could be much much better
my mountains are the sierra nevada
or sureal nervana
as they have been lovingly nicknamed
my loyalty is to a way of life that may exist only in my mind
or on a small green planet in a distant galaxy
i am no threat to anyone
nor do i wish to be
but i do not willingly contribute to the perpetuating of the tyranny
of the dominance of aggressiveness
and peacefully boycott doing so when and as best i can
it is a small house
i do not own it
i am permitted to garden in a small portion of the lot it sets on
i have neighbors
far too many and far too closeby
but better then many i have had elsewhere
one of them is our landlord
his dogs love me
but he does not want us to have cats or other creatures that can run arround loose and live independently so we don't

there are trains in my garden
and in the garage space that is storage and workspace
and on one of the dressers in the bedroom i share with my wife.

those trains and this computer are the only material possessions i value

there are paved streets and automobiles in this town which do not make it pleasant

there is a large railroad yard that does

so, where are you in Australia TAR?

I think the NZ government is being abit more intellegent than mine, the Howard "I love taking it from Dubya" Australian government, that is. Culturually and historically, we do have allot in common though with our Trans - Tasman cousins. I think ANZAC sums it up.

I'm from Ocean Grove, Victoria, Australia, but I am living in China at the moment.

I don't mind being chucked in with Canada, don't really see the connection though. We are both Commonwealth countries and fought in a few wars together for similar reasons, such as WW1 & 2

Why is it that america has this great need to make small towns named after other countries cities? its time for a libel action I feel...

It's not just in the US...here in Holland there's a tiny village called America :)

I'm a U.S. citizen who lives in New Zealand half the year, and Vermont the rest. Haven't seen a good winter in years. v_v Crikey, this place scares me. X_X :p

Hell, Australia and New Zealand should probably be the same country I reckon. We're so alike in many ways.We should invade New Zealand, just for th e heck of it. Our troops aren't doing much and supply isn't really a problem.

i'm in palmerston, n.t lapse

London, UK.

I grouped canada and australia together because they are both commonwealth countries… pretty lame but there you go…

I didn't put NZ on because 1) it's pretty close to australia and 2) no-one was from there in the previous poll.

Catholic Europe :shock: a 5 figure post count!! :cry: :shock: *collapses*

continents idea is probably better(if not the best!), but this is going fine anyway…

I'm not the only one....there are 4 of us (Parratoga, Omz222, myself and Roania).
