"Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel" - Samuel Johnson

I see your Samuel Johnson and raise you a Samuel Clements:

"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, and brave and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."

;¬0 England/Britain/UK.

Gosh, what an unpatriotic bunch of Britishers we are.

(\0/) Humans

;¬0 England/Britain/UK.

Gosh, what an unpatriotic bunch of Britishers we are.

Hehe I was thinking that, I wonder if it is a culture thing, or a shit goverment thing?

I'm patriotic for the State of Kansas, and the United States of the Americas! SHABOW!!

Hehe I was thinking that, I wonder if it is a culture thing, or a shit goverment thing?

Well its not as shit as the USA. I guess it's in our blood to never really be satisfied.

Hehe I was thinking that, I wonder if it is a culture thing, or a shit goverment thing?

Could be both. We don't exactly have it bred in to us, and our government is shit...

And do you reckon we'd be more or less patriotic with Cameron as Prime Minister?

Well since the conservatives are more or less the same, I doubt much will change.

Looks like british value their soccer teams more than their country.

I´m brazilian, proud of it, but much more proudfull of being part of my State, and being a gaucho.

Nicely done my friend :p I've never yet met a German that would do somethin like that lol :D

I'm not patriotic. USA.

Which city, if you don't mind me asking?
Pretty much right in the middle of Germany: Göttingen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6ttingen).

I agree, yet I consider our beer the best in the world. And don't dispute it any further - or you'll hear some more "rough" language. ;)
And I honestly don't understand what's so bad about it, either. Yes, it is spoken deeper in the throat than, let's say, English. But I love the language no matter what.

If one can't joke about it, all hope is lost. Besides, I could always say I meant "I feel half-patriotic"... :D

Hold ALT and type 0172 on the number pad. Like this: ¬

And do you reckon we'd be more or less patriotic with Cameron as Prime Minister?

No. Equally as unpatriotic, I reckon. But ID cards would get shelved :)

But if we had Red Ken or Boris Johnson as despot then it'd be Rule Brittania from me! :D

Pretty much right in the middle of Germany:
Nope, never been that far north in Germany. Just curious.

you will come to our defence? :eek: :eek: :eek:

how was your week'end' in Belgium btw?

Liege was nice :) And but the real weekend will start tomorrow :)

And I'll come to the defence yes. I can't let go some of those breweries go to waste, now can I? ;)

Well okay lets not talk aboutthe beer(but you're wrong) when I say rougth, I mean it sounds rough. Ohh don't get me wrong, rough sounding wimmin with big breasts I like as much as the next man!

Or you could just hold shit and press the button next to the 1, like this : ¬

i think i'll stick to Alt + 0172 :p

btw it doesn't work, it gives: ³ or 2

W\0/\0/T!

Aw, man - you've missed the best part!
I've been west to trier/saarbrucken, and the southern corner, frankfurt, etc, and down through the border to switzerland, but the rest of germany I never got to, which was really disappointing. Hit amsterdam, though, which more than made up for it.... :)

I like the German Language actually. Words sound so much cooler in German :D English is too much like French... No offence :p

:D

Whoops :D

yeah, for some reason we use AZERTY keyboards and a laptop keyboard possibly has less functions due to less space etc.

Me too... I wish I'd been born speaking some other language... like German. Or Hungarian...

Might be the language or something... Go to the character map (Start->Run, "charmap", return) and look it up in there, see what it says.

Well okay lets not talk aboutthe beer(but you're wrong) when I say rougth, I mean it sounds rough. Ohh don't get me wrong, rough sounding wimmin with big breasts I like as much as the next man!
;) I know what you mean. It sounds more guttural. (And I'm still right about ze Bier!)

Well, the North is less densely populated - but it's way better than the South! :D
If you have a chance to return, come visit the rest of the country as well.

\0/ Usa

\0/ USA. I am a patriot and believer of the Declaration of Independence. Especially this part:

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Real patriots would not let a corrupt government destroy their country!

wtf is this: \0/?

And @ Peepelonia: Why did I think you were Australian?Because you had him confused with Proggresica?

Actually, I'd have to say I'm a mixture of \0/ and ;¬0 for Britain. I'm \0/ for things like drinking tea and inventing heavy metal (strange combination, perhaps, but I don't care). I'm ;¬0 for the government and having a state religion.

;) USA.

I'm going to Canada in 10 days! \o/ Canada! (even though I'll only be there for a week.... :p)

I hate our government, but I LOVE AMERICA!!

Did you read the rest of the thread? Or are you, in fact, plugged into my thoughts?Er, no, I didn't read it. Shame on me, I know, for not reading threads I reply to. <.<

I just figured that was the most obvious explanation. It's the way I always get people here confused, them having some similarity in name or sig or such.

*goes off to read*


LOL, apparently I didn't even read all the way to the second page. >.<


So yeah, obviously, totally plugged into your thoughts. *makes you send me chocolate*

Patriotic but not chauvinistic or jingoistic. I love my country, just not some of the leaders. USA.

USA, I love my country. I'd rather be here than anywhere else, and I have been around the world a couple times. However, I'm not exactly enthused by the way our "elected" "officials" have made a mockery of the great institution we inherited from our founding fathers.
