Actually, IME travelling the world, Canada ought be in first place. Unless y'all have taken to farting in churches lately or some-such?


I dunno why it makes me laugh. Maybe the imagery.

Heh. I've got more, and worse... Twisted

Trade the 'roos for horses and you've got Texas. Plus or minus a metric buttload of firearms.

And plus or minus a few million pretty uptight and judgmental church people. Not to hate on anyone, but that no-fun church culture is a real damper on the fun in a big geographical part of Texas. Being a Texan, I can say that Australians are funner than most Texans. In fact, they're about the funnest and most good-natured people I've met anywhere. Smile

At first I thought it was a troll. Looks like a troll. Sounds like a troll. Smells like a troll.
But it's effing real.
My friends and me have been discussing this yesterday, still somewhat baffled, and came to the conclusion that one crucial factor for our increased popularity might be the fact that we haven't tried to start a single world war in this current century yet.

But I guess now is the time to rub it into everybody's face and congratulate Germany on being awesome.

And since you all want to sound like the new popular guy, at least try to post in German here, no matter how bad you are at it!

Also, postiert in Krautsprech in diesem Faden!


Und los!


YEah, I'm just going to advise everyone in France to move their cars now if they're on the street, because the last time Germany had national pride, a World War started.


I guess Poe's Law applies here.
But I was hoping I had been exaggerating enough to make clear that I was poking fun of this poll because I found the results so incredibly absurd... gah..

By the way, recent cuts in budget have reduced our army to about half the size it had when it was founded.
I know that you all expect a lot of us and that we have a reputation to upkeep- but right now would be a bad time for a world war, since we don't want to disappoint you.
I mean yes, we could always argue like those Hollywood producers that the whole thing was planned as a trilogy all along- but without proper funding part three will simply suck compared to 1 and 2.

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

Applying the "Domino" theorem and the state of europe and mix that with a small helping of that human

Get your head out of the sand... The same governments that got the world into this mess are still here.

You know why Germany is so popular? 'Cause we Austrians are smart enough to keep a low profile! Lol

Zimmy, I say it again, a unified European Military would solve that. Take our budgets, role it together till we've got the British Running a Navy, the Germans the Airforce and the French the Army.

In a few moments you will have an experience that will seem completely real. It will be the result of your subconscious fears transformed to your conscious awareness.

And can't start one either - there's far less men of military age in Germany in 2013 than there was in 1914.

I just read some unnerving news about Germany.

Apparently the word Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz is going to be removed from the German dictionary!
