Title: Here's something you Brits should understand.
Post by: NUKE on May 12, 2003, 08:42:48 PM: You are our truest ally and our best friends on this earth.

Americans will always respect you and your great achievements throughout your long, amazing history.

We will never leave your side, just as you will never leave our side in times of need.

Personally, there are so many things about your country, it's history, and it's achievements that I admire, I don't think I could fit them all in one post.

Just saying...

Post by: cpxxx on May 12, 2003, 08:49:40 PM: Is there a punchline Nuke.............? No, you really mean it?

Boy, the poodle will be really wagging it's tail after those nice comments!

As an Irishman I could add some less than flattering comments about the British but I won't. That would not be nice.

Post by: Saurdaukar on May 12, 2003, 09:29:38 PM: No there isnt a punchline and I agree with NUKE 100%. The US and UK have always been close, and the recent conflict only made the bond stronger.

~~and thank you Britain.~~

Post by: Defiance on May 12, 2003, 09:51:53 PM: Hiya's,
It seems we (UK) are held in good stead by our m8s over the pond
Yes for sure we're real close allies (long to continue i no-doubt)

Amazing it is really not too far back in history it was a far bloody war that brought about a USA (after civil i mean)

You would think there's never been bloodshed from either of of against each other and here we are as most of the onlooking world sees as brothers in arms and allies through thick & thin

to two great countries having figured a way to bond for the bettermant of man and forging a seemingly unbreakable bond of sense of security/proserity and right and wrongs and sheer crazy admiration for being in as allies for longer than i have been living

Allies of course friends undoubtidly

guys lost dead and worse or still missing on each nations and other anzak allies too

Damn king george why the hell could'nt he leave the darn taxes as they were, i maybe about to pivk up a gun n go chasing wabbitts and such targetable finds in rolling hills and creeks etc etc

Well from enemies for years and now i think we are the two closiest modern day allies around

Morale, If need be even the worst can come in to play and things right for the future

Good bless america
And may he also bless on Elizebath Regina II

'...and I want you to remember always, as you graduate from England's oldest university; that no matter how hard you try, no matter how much you try... you will never be an american.'

I laughed so hard I almost cracked a rib. It reeked of TRIUMPH (i bet he wrote that bit hehehe).

Perhaps, but given the reputation of the Greeks I very much doubt there was any mixing of bodily fluids between members of the OPPOSITE sex.:)
Title: Here's something you Brits should understand.
Post by: Swoop on May 13, 2003, 10:31:42 AM: That doesnt actually mean the Romans were Greeks.

Besides, if you look at British history from the time of the frist invasions up until the last one in 1066.....we've got Norman (French) blood, Saxon (German) blood, Viking blood, Roman blood and a whole blood bank load of Celtic type AB negative. The real natives of this Island (The Ancient Britons) don't actually exist in any significant numbers anymore.......

U .. u ... u are a liar nifty, I dont believe u. I've read many mean threads where people say ... sniff... that they ...sniffff..... wont buy lecker bratwurst anymore
Title: Here's something you Brits should understand.
Post by: Nifty on May 13, 2003, 12:08:17 PM: you're right! I didn't buy brats at the store yesterday. It was more cuz I didn't want them in general, not cuz they're German in origin. ;) Next time I go to the store, I promise I'll get brats and some German potato salad. ;) I might even get some sauerkraut too. hmm, or I'll just make some wienerschnitzel. ;) oh wait, that's Austrian, isn't it?

However... I saw two Porsche Boxters in a matter of 5 minutes of driving time tho actually about 45 minutes apart as one was right before I got to the store and the other was after. They were different ones for sure, one was black, the other was silver. So Americans are still driving their Porsches! ;)

Brits show our affection for others by piss taking and friendly insults. If we stop taking the piss outta you then you've really upset us somehow.

If you want to use english on the ball, my head is a bad choice, too worn and shiney :D

Incidently, I saw an hour program on Amsterdam. Damn neat looking city....when you going to come visit Washinton State? Bring Jenga, you got a place to stay and transportation.

Post by: cpxxx on May 13, 2003, 03:03:50 PM: I guess that means none of you Yanks will be renting 'The Patriot' on video any more. The only thing missing off the British uniforms in that film was the SS logo. Talk about implausible.

Swoop has it right, Brits only show how much they like someone by taking the piss, none of this hugging and touchy feely crap. That stiff upper lip thing is very true, until they've had a few drinks that is.

The English have no respect for you unless you beat them at something. (The French are struggling here).

The Irish and English have been fighting each other for so long like brothers that we almost like each other, almost.

Still, I think NUKE has lost the plot here. Is he in love or something?
Title: Here's something you Brits should understand.
Post by: Dowding on May 13, 2003, 03:14:55 PM: For centuries Ireland was the back door to a continental invasion of England (especially when England went Protestant). Occupation was security - it wasn't as though there was tremendous wealth to be robbed, unlike India etc. And we couldn't send our convicts over there because it was within swimming distance of Liverpool.

But that was a long time ago. My best mate from uni had Irish parents - really good people. In fact, the only Irish people I haven't liked were those from Enniskillen when I went out with a girl from there. I don't think they liked the English much. Probably for good reason, although most of them were friendly.

BTW The Patriot was a great piece of propaganda. If I was the King of England, I'd have all the English actors in that film shot for treason. Nah, it was pretty funny. And the battle scenes were good.
Title: Here's something you Brits should understand.
Post by: Nifty on May 13, 2003, 03:28:10 PM: :) btw, I do love England. They gave us The Beatles and Led Zeppelin. Been listening to them both all day. I've also consumed more English beer than any other nation's beer. ;) Tho with me brewing my own, USA will catch up, but considering what I'm brewing is basically Newcastle or Samuel Smiths Nut Brown, it's still "English."

Hell, my surname is English origin (I think.) :)
