Most beer from Canada does suck but hockey > *

Want a stupid sport? How about the one with a ball that you're not allowed to touch with your hands. Talk about boring. Soccer = :thumbsdown:


Of course, soccer is the most popular sport in the world:roll:

Why does nobody mention auto racing? Americans love their NASCAR, but I think going circles in a car that's trying to resemble a grocery getter (without coming CLOSE mechanically) isn't a real man's race. The upcoming Sebring race, which is full of foreign competitors, is a real man's race. Formula 1 is a real man's race. Heck, even professional bicycling, which isn't that popular here either -- especially since the French like it -- is a real man's race.

(no sexism intended)

Dude...there a whole lot more racist countries than the US. That is for certain.

And many of them are in the European Union...France, Spain, Switzerland for starters.

Japan (but they're getting better, largely for economic reasons)

Serbia - now THAT's a racist country. What's up with the Albanians, anyway?

I don't think the catholic church thinks of the Vatican as a country per se, it's just independent of any other country.

Whatever country is responsible for the person who would ask this question. We have enough hatred in this world without everyone espousing it with political , propogandized and uneducated opinions.

These are exactly my feelings toward the average American's hatred of France. Most of those I ask don't even know why. They're just doing it because it's the cool thing to do.

Not sure why people listed Japan, if you like USA then you should like Japan, we are basically twins.

That's exactly why I'm listing it as my choice (I'm from the US btw). Going to a foreign country, especially in Asia, should be an exotic experience. All the Japanese know how to do is copy the west while actively throwing their own culture in the trash and looking down at other Asian cultures.

England.

I went to a restaurant there and ordered iced tea, to which the waiter snootily replied, "We do NOT ice our tea." So I ordered tea and a glass of ice.

What did they ever do to you? It's the world's only peaceful theocracy.

Peaceful Theocracy? Sure, you keep on thinking that while your priest is cornholing your 12 year old son!

I just find it extremely disgusting that 1000's if not 10s of 1000's of children of all ages have been abused by the sicko pedophile priets! Priests that dedicate their lives to their religion and gain the support and trust of their followers. And you can't tell me the Vatican didn't know anything about it. The AP just reported today that 102 priests are suspected of abusing 350 children since 1940.

I know child abuse happens everywhere, but it sickens me even more when it's the likes of religious figures who think they can hide behind the church so no one will ever suspect them.

Do a google on the smallest country and the Vatican is listed as number one. The Catholic HQ couldn't possibly be considered part of any one country so they claim to be their own country.
