“We’re bigger, and we’re on top. If this was prison, they would be our bitch.” - Rick Mercer, This Hour Has 22 Minutes
With Canadian Thanksgiving coming up so soon, and American Thanksgiving in another month and a half, why don’t both countries get together and stomp Turkey?
I agree with everyone airdisc named except Artic Ocean. I’ve spent many a year battleing those sea monsters and all I’ve got to show for it is a wooden leg. Besides, those giant squid are a pain to negotiate with. They get you so wrapped up with everything you drown in their paper work.
guh, I’ll learn to spell one of these days. While I’m at it I’ll also learn how to spell battling
I vote we invade Microsoft. I’ve been playing Bejeweled for the last half hour, and the terrorists won every time.
MSN is openly providing financing for smaller and more elusive terrorist groups like PopCap, flaunting their support through various links and advertisements.
Microsoft also supports .NET; a radical, fundamentalist faction of the ancient and honorable religion of CGI.
This administration feels it’s only a matter of time before Microsoft acquires programming languages of mass destruction; indeed, they’ve already used nerve toxins like C#, VB, and Jolt Cola on their own people.
Let there be no doubt: We will not rest until MSN, PopCap, and that little clippy bastard have been relegated to history’s bit-bucket of wasted productivity.
My FERVENT preference would be…NONE.
I’d vote for Canada, too!
Just let me be in the front ranks as we march thru Montreal. There’s a certain Quebecois I want to surrender to!
Is that story for real? If so, that’s fucking hilarious. 
The Soviet Union. You just know they’re faking this whole “Russia” thing so we’ll let our guard down. Did anyone actually see them throw out all those red flags? I didn’t think so. So let’s get them first.
I say we take out Antarctica via Easter Island and continue on to The Moon where we can really let it all hang out.
C’mon. Get creative. We give them independence, then go back and whack 'em!
Release and capture is what it’s all about, mon! We could do it every weekend for practice!
I second (third?) France!
On September 11 of last year, my clock radio went off and in my half-sleep I heard that a plane flew through the World Trade Center.
My immediate thought in my sleep-addled mind was of the French daredevil who had parachuted and gotten caught on the Statue of Liberty about a month before. I thought it was some other crazy Frenchman who had used a small plane to fly between the two towers.
I turned on my TV and quickly got the real story, but I still think the French have not been adequately blamed. Iraq may be in the “Axis of Evil,” but I think France (or at least some wacky French) is firmly centered in the “Axis of Idiocy.”
Oh, and I think we should invade French Canada as well for not having the good sense to elect Matt_McL to Parliament.
I don’t know that Switzerland would be that easy an option. For a start, how are you going to get there? There is no way that the Germans, Austrians, Italians and especially the French are going to let your lot station an invasion force around Switzerland. Also, they’re really paranoid about this sort of thing and are fully geared up to repel aggressive foreign bastards. All the bridges and tunnels are mined, and invading Switzerland without bridges or tunnels is hard. It’s a bumpy place.
Every Swiss bloke is armed to the teeth (it’s a bit like Texas in that respect), and they have these scary James Bond Bad Guy-style aircraft hangars in mountain sides, with steam catapults to launch them. Plus a load of tanks and APC specially designes for mountains.
But it would be interesting to watch. Just try it.
You’re welcome to invade Ireland. Just make sure you bring cookies and promise to drive Michael Flatley from our shores.
Never mind Iraq, we should invade Tie Rack.
No! Wait! Turn the flotilla back NOW.
Michael Flatley’s is a genetic aberration caused by US/Irish hobnobbing. Imagine the chances of producing another one following thousands more illicit liaisons…
France—they already have nukes, so who is to say when they might hand’em over to terrorists? A lot of French-Canadians fit that category already. Maybe we should take them out first. No, it should be France and then the French-Canadians. But what if France has already given them nukes? What then? Maybe we better just surrender now instead of later.
I vote Canada. We could force James LaBrie to visit a hairdresser.
I think we should start something with Quebec. I bet Canada would disown them then, and let them become an independent nation once the US is gunning for them. It’d be like attacking France, without all that ocean travel.
I think we should go after Freedonia. That Margaret Dumont broad is just asking for it.
