Instead, we anglos a left with our masterful interpretations of famous French literature as famously seen here....

It's fine, it's fine... Soon all Americans will be speaking Spanish anyways.

Too true! That’s what happens when a country intentionally ignores enforcement of its own borders and immigration laws. Come one, come all...

There’s enough money, jobs, healthcare, food, housing, and education for everyone. Those things all grow on trees in the good ol’ USA, just have to tax those overpaid airline pilots a bit more and grow government indefinitely.

Yes, I’m a total racist for this opinion.

Well, living here in London, you could forgive me for thinking I am actually somewhere either in the Middle East or India/Pakistan . And that is even leaving aside the issue of the midlands, where some cities literally ARE Pakistan (Bradford, Birmingham, Leeds...etc). Pretty sad state of affairs, that will lead to the fall of Britain if we are not careful.

Nah not really.
It's much more fun winding up the seppos.
They take the bait and then some.

As I've heard said by others many times in the past:
"You can always tell an American, you just can't tell him much!"

It makes you feel bad like you're clubbing a Labrador puppy.

Curtain Rod,

Russia was a prime contributor to the start of WW2 by having a treaty with Germany to give Germany carte blanche to invade other countries. It was only when they invaded Russia that they came in as an ally.

Guys, guys, guys, guys......GUYS!

What are we doing here? Stop swinging your purses at each other. Who cares! We all know it was the Canadians who saved the day in both world wars!

Is there nothing at all more relevant, a current problem more important to talk about? Just sayin...

If anything from WW2 is of relevance, perhaps it would be a discussion regarding the antics of Lord Ha Ha...? Before anyone points it out, yes, I know...he was a Brit!
