But is that really an option given a) foreigners hate America and b) therefore Americans and c) the Reader owns the Dope and d) the Reader is based in Chicago, IL., USA and e) we are living in a global village without boundaries and f) my head’s aching…
As Karl Pop-up said, “you cannot force anybody by argument to take arguments seriously”.

What is so difficult about this?
The server is in Chicago but the board is connected to the World Wide Web. Membership is international.
So the board is international.

Where are the Dutch on that list, hmmm?
Exactly! They could account for the other 7%!!
We were at war with the US?! Who knew?
Maybe it was just friendly fire
He didn’t say that, he merely said that it takes 15 Brits to equal one American. Anyone with an accurate set of scales can confirm this.
mswas:
I bet he can’t wait til you’re 50 and all your bad british teeth have fallen out so you can polish his knob 100X more effectively.
We didn’t defeat you limey buggers in two wars to get made fun of on internet message boards! No brit is even 1/15th the least American…NO ONE!!!
England is just the beta test version, America is retail baby!
Go Brickbacon keep getting pitted for pointing out simple demographics!

America defeated Limeys in 2 world wars?
Shit my history books are way the fuck out of wonk, here I thought the US and the UK were on the same side.

I blame the liberal school boards.
Don’t blame the schools. I’m sure mswas had a cold those days

The last year my mom lived in Canada, her class studied the War of 1812. The first year my mom lived in the U.S., her class studied the War of 1812. She says these were apparently two different wars.

I’m sure there’s some connection here…

Yeah, I missed the day where they taught us that the two world wars were the only wars that ever happened.

Now,now. Don’t make fun. You know we can’t count.
Aha!
You were referring to your nascent nation’s terroristic defeat of the evil King George! In the Eighteenth Century! How proud you must be…

Hey, the only time we ever fought an honorable war it was either against England with France or Germany with England. Gotta take our pride where we can.
It doesn’t matter though, because we can take a point of pride knowing that England is our bitch now.

That’s pretty funny considering the fact that a recent retired moderator was Dutch. brickbacon , you really shoved that foot in far! This isn’t “an American board”, it’s a worldwide community with a goal of fighting ignorance, but it seems you’ve forgotten that too. JMHO of course.
How about a current moderator who is Indian.
I had no idea brickbacon was still around.

Sadly, you have a point. Not just England, but all that Tony Blair rules is ‘your bitch’.
Maybe we can somehow wipe that shit-eating grin off his face?
I know, dream on…

I thought it was a not-so-clever play on bricker’s username. That’s why I wandered in here in the first place…
