xkatiie Wrote:[COLOR="Purple"]A little to late, eh?It wasn't direct flaming, just an opinion. And you ask why, I can tell you the answer. Plain simply, you (well not all of you) roughly underestimate the world outside the US. I don't know whether it's jealousy or general stupidity, but for example, the way most of you act towards the europeans, is ridiculous. You act as if we were somewhat worse people than they are because you have higher GDP (Even though most of Europe has higher general standards of living). I'm not saying all of you as I know there are different people among you, but generally the image I've gotten is that most of you are arrogant and patriotic, thinking the USA is the best country there is and that there's a huge gap between USA and the second best country...
Anyways. No one said that the United States was perfect. No one said that everyone IN the United States is perfect. I don't know why people NOT living in the United States seem to always talk crap about this country. They haven't lived here. I for one think our country needs alot of work, but you don't see me going around bashing other countries.
And to the person that called us "idiots" and "retards" you really need to calm down. There was no need to call people names. This is just gonna turn into one big flame war...as usual.
