This thread is for anyone who is tired of hearing all the flaming of other countries in this forum. This is a place to post anything and everything NICE that you want to say about other countries. I'll start. Despite any other misgivings I may have about the US, a large number of their citizens are nice, polite people who try to keep themselves informed on various issues, both within their country and the world. Kudos to those americans who take such an interest, there are far more of you than we are led to believe.

Having encountered many Americans, I will say this:

They are well-fed.

North Korea. Their people are well behaved. Also they don't take any shit, which I like. Similar to China.

Just those rich enough to be tourists. ;)

The USA has some wonderful people, an astonishingly wide variety of natural beauty, and an interesting mix of cultures.

I think the people of Norway and Denmark are nice people and have a good head on their shoulders. They seem to respect others and seem to accept people for who they really are.

France has excellent food, and the French people I have met were all friendly and polite.

American people usually tend to have good intentions, even if they still make mistakes.

The Scots, Irish, Australians, Germans and most Americans are polite.
Also:
Norway
Wales
France
Sweden.

England r0xx0rz my b0xx0rz.

Scotland doesn't take any shit either ;) and that's a compliment. They are known for being extraordinarily tough, yet polite :D .

I love the way people from the UK pronounce English words. I love Tony Blair. :)

All the british people I've met were very hospitable and kind.

All the Austrian people I've met are very easygoing and nice. The governor of my state (California) is born in Austria, and I love him.

North Koreans are amongst the nicest people on earth, thier leadership is kind and loving. I like it how they care for the well being of every individual on earth.

Russia is big.

Everything that comes out of Switzerland is top quality.

Cheese, chocolate, Roger Federer...

Japan made my pen.

France has a tower.
And Canada has some people that like ice.
China has inexpensive products.

I love the way people from the UK pronounce English words. I love Tony Blair. :)
YOU LIKE TONY BLAIR!!!!! :headbang: :eek:

Heaven is where...
The Police are English
The Cooks are French
The Mechanics are German
The Lovers are Italian
and everything is organized by the Swiss.

Hell is where...
The Police are German
The Cooks are English
The Mechanics are French
The Lovers are Swiss
and everything is organized by the Italians!

It's funny because it's true. :)

We (English) aren't that bad at cooking! :p

South Korean people have a great sense of humour

Hahaha, Just make sure you have that flame jacket on. Cause with a statement like that.....

*Grabs a hammer, starts pounding the ground*

I'm bashing my own country, does that count? :D

We (English) aren't that bad at cooking! :p


Yes you are. You're just used to it. :D
Same way we Americans are by and large used to supermarkets and malls instead of vendors in the square...

Hmmm...Cuba is an island.

Nothing rhymes with Nicaragua.

We (English) aren't that bad at cooking! :p

Yeah fish and chips rock!

french chicks are EASY!!!! :p jk
germans are friendly, intelligent but down-to-earth, and are extremely liberal with the booze

France isn't as bad as East Germany.

North Korea is intersting geographically.

Well a few years back, I went to Irland and England... the people there were quite nice and helpful to the poor lost tourists.
And, did you know that Irleland (the Republic) has already had a few female presidents? Kudos for that too

France isn't as bad as East Germany.

just so you know, roach-busters, east germany isn't a country anymore ;)

France has excellent food, and the French people I have met were all friendly and polite.

Have I entered the twilight zone? Friendly and polite????? Who the hell describes the French that way?

They are the most obnoxious and boorish "people" I have ever encountered. I am not even talking about foreign policy or anything like that, I am talking about directions..as in street directions. The only way that I can get them to be even reasonably tolerant is to speak in Telugu(I think it gets their ego up to help a poor savage) until they get irritated and demand that I respond in English. God help me if I try to ask questions in English or Spanish or my pathetic french.

Fucking frog eaters, I always try to help tourists even if I have to use hand signals and chalk. The French make me understand why the Germans were so quick to leave. Why exactly is it that the French deserve a security council vote and not the Germans? or the Indians or the Australians or the Brazilians?

edit: not even gonna mention sinking greenpeace ships or nuking coral reefs

i'd like to reply to that by saying : i dont like the french

just so you know, roach-busters, east germany isn't a country anymore ;)

I know. ;)

And I have nothing against France, either. ;)

are you serious>? :confused: even a thread solely dedicated to NOT bashing other countries has, after 3 pages, become a flame-war over 'czar bush' and 'fucking frog-eaters?' :( i'm outta here

North Koreans are amongst the nicest people on earth, thier leadership is kind and loving. I like it how they care for the well being of every individual on earth.

lol is that a joke?

Let me guess because they didn't support Czar Bush in the war?

no idk care about that , i dont like them because they are cowards , what happened to conquest??? wheres napoleon? i like the french of that era as well as when they were called franks.

Indian cuisine is quite tasty.

....how quickly this went to hell.

Sorry, sorry, sorry. I realize that the purpose of this thread was something else. I was ust so shocked when someone described the French that way. I have never heard anyone talk about them like that and I was just ... well I dont know the right words, but it was an oddly bizarre feeling. It was just something out of the blue and I reacted.

Kinda like someone telling you that up is down or that the French are good for something.

Oops, I did it again.

I am sorry for making that comment. I was very rude and off topic.

Indian cuisine is quite tasty.

Well, the key is the spice. At certain levels, spice interupts some neuron activity and spurs endorphin production.

That and it keeps food from going bad a bit longer especially in warm climates.

I like the first reason better even though I completely made it up.

want to invade the french? :mp5: :sniper:

I found two things shocking last year...

The Americans I was living in with in Baton Rouge weren't ugly at all and most of them could find BR in a map (I prolly can't).

The French people I met in Toulouse didn't try to surrender to me and they didn't like cheese too much.

Indian cuisine is quite tasty.


I agree..... I'd also like to add that some of the friendliest people I've ever met were Austrailians! :)

want to invade the french? :mp5: :sniper:

No, because then I would have to deal with them more than I do now.

Besides, all it would is for the US girl scouts to make vague threatening ovetures before the froglike cowards surrendered to the next weather balloon they saw.

As a people, our gene pool could do better.

For the all the French people that are insulted: fuck off, try to be more polite to guests/business people in your country, maybe they will feel the need to come back

Your chocolate and strawberry croisants(sp) are amazing though, there is a lot to be said for nutella. Fucking frogs

The Swiss kick ass. In a non-war way.

Louisiana is in the US. And that's where most of Anne Rice's deliciously trashy and just plain delicious novels are set.

And Malaysian food rocks.

The French are a very nice people, very friendly to anybody who doesn't act like an obnoxious tourist and start thinking that shouting will make them understand you better. Both their men and their women are damn fine. Their food is among the best in the world. Their countryside is green and pleasant, their graffiti is artful, and their architecture beautiful.

And, as most Americans seem to forget, America has NEVER won a war without French support. Except for the Iraq war, and look how much of a shambles that was.

Nice idea for a thread. :)

I'll just say this: I spent a year in Australia recently, and in all my time there I hardly met a single unpleasant person. Virtually everyone was friendly and helplful. I won't say I like everything about Australia (their government, for example, is hardly ideal), but I will say that for its people. Yay, Ozzies!

At least the Canadians have common sense.

<Fails the resist the temptation>

Please explain to me what SUPPORT the French were able to give in WWII, by the time the US joined they had, no army, no navy, no air force, heck, no unconquered citites. As far as I can tell the only thing the French and US did then was swap VDs.

Your chocolate and strawberry croisants(sp) are amazing though, there is a lot to be said for nutella. Fucking frogsThe US is among the free countries of the world. It allows even their most stupid citizens to ridicule themselves in public. I like the US citizens for their courage and for their patience when they have to deal with stupid people and how they stay free and let idiots shout stupid talks, even when those idiots are ridiculing their own country. It takes a lot of temperance to resist slapping idiots sometimes. We must not judge the US by its idiots, but by their humble people who are defending freedom even at the expense of their own national pride.

The whole reason I startedthis thread is that there are far too many that seem to be devoted to flaming or insulting other countries. Please, if you feel a need to vent this kind of stuff, take it to another thread or start a new one. This is supposed to be a place that does not stoop to this kind of thing, and there are many threads where you would probably feel more at home. STOP BASHING OTHER COUNTRIES!
