We have a lot in common.
We both put up with a lot of BS from boastful, arrogant bastards who think their country is the shit just because they happen to have been born there/here.
Call me when your country legalizes weed. Then you'll have something to boast about.

Sadly i cant say we've legalised it yet, but damn, it IS legal compred to America [I know it's not Americas fault, it's your joke of a government - then again, ours aint much better]
With all the problems in England our lax laws are the only real "good" thing about the place - but even though we're going to shit i'm still very patriotic.

I think we should get Prince Harry and the Bush twins to host a little round table discussion with the parties involved here on the board.

I dont think anyone wins. If this is a muck about thread it's great, but if it turns into a what country is better - then there is no competition.
IF it does turn into a what country is better, all i've got to mention is the fact it was US brits who invented the internet, amongst almost everything else and we're done.
I dont want it to turn into that kind of thread though, coz i'll loose my temper and say something i dont mean.

But theres no oil there so it wont happen. In terms of sports, I think america has the majority (soccer is great but cricket is gay as hell) and if it came down to a sports battle, mike tyson could just fend off the entire soccer community while the americans shot up steroids lol

I just dont think that's true. Yes, you've got more soldiers, but they're not as highly trained as our soldiers, not to mention our army is already one of the best in the world, if not THE best. And lets not get started on the SAS and SBS. You'd do some serious damage, granted, but it defiantly wouldnt be a wham bam thankyou maam job. With America's track record of friendly fire we wouldnt have to do any work.
But yes, America and England are very differnt in most ways, but in some ways we're very similar. It's good we can all get along, and like i said, enjoy a bit of harmless banter along the way.
Sterio typically i think of Americans as fat lazy idiots, but this place just proves me wrong, i concider myself friends with tons of Americans, afterall, we're allies, and when your not killing us, your helping us.

But Englands army is definitely good. The thing is that Americas Army is the most highly trained precise military machine in the world, with the possible exception of Israel's (we can all agree on that). If it came down to pure military might, america would shit on any country in the world save china. Its simply illogical to think otherwise.

Honestly, I think in general, British people are cooler.
It was the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and was the first country in the world to become industrialised.
England is home to the Royal Society, which laid the foundations of modern experimental science.
Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web, http, html, and many of the other technologies on which the Web is based.
Frank Whittle, inventor of the jet engine.
Charles Babbage, inventor of the first computer (in the nineteenth century).
Alan Turing and Tommy Flowers, inventors of the modern computer and its associated concepts and technologies.
Joseph Whitworth, inventor of many of the modern techniques and technologies of precision engineering.
Joseph Swan, developer of the light bulb.
They are just a very small selection of things we have discovered, and contributed to the world. - This is nothing to do with what country is cooler, but England wins hands down if we think about what country has contributed the most to the world.
I'm not saying America hasnt, you've made lots of contributions, C02 being the biggest LOL.

LIP, Berners-lee didn't invent the internet. He just created the most popular interface for it. Leonard Kleinrock and J.C.R. Licklider first wrote about a "galactic network", and Larry Roberts created the first long distance functioning connection (ARPANET). Then Kahn and Cerf came along and created TCP data movement, which officially started the internet. But Berners-Lee was a damn genious.
FakeBoobsRule
06-21-2007, 05:00 PM
Considering the U.S. has only been around 331 years we are doing damn good in our contributions to the world Lip.
It was the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and was the first country in the world to become industrialised.
We had Henry Ford who took it to the next level with the moving assembly line.
England is home to the Royal Society, which laid the foundations of modern experimental science.
We weren't even a country when the Royal Society was founded so that one is a little iffy.
Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web, http, html, and many of the other technologies on which the Web is based.
I'm not a computer expert by any means but I am sure we laid the groundwork for the world wide web with the ARPANET and the whole idea of conecting computers was started by researchers from UC-Berkely and MIT.
Frank Whittle, inventor of the jet engine.
We have the Wright Brothers who were the first to fly in a fixed wing aircraft.
Charles Babbage, inventor of the first computer (in the nineteenth century).
Ok, I will probably give you that one but we have Bill Gates.
Alan Turing and Tommy Flowers, inventors of the modern computer and its associated concepts and technologies.
Going to have to say we have Bill Gates again.
Joseph Whitworth, inventor of many of the modern techniques and technologies of precision engineering.
I'm not an engineer and I know less about this than computers so I have to stay away from this one.
Joseph Swan, developer of the light bulb.
We had Ben Franklin so he really pioneered the way with electricity so without him Swan might not have had a lightbulb.
They are just a very small selection of things we have discovered, and contributed to the world. - This is nothing to do with what country is cooler, but England wins hands down if we think about what country has contributed the most to the world.
What about our space exploration, ending the Cold War and stopping the spread of Communism through Europe, saving the world from WWI and WWII, our contributions to health care that are too numerous to name, just to name a few. To say England wins hands down is yet to be determined or proven.
We should make a big list of the good things, and determin that way, if, it is going to be on of those threads.
I know England has been around longer than America, but things we use today are fairly modern and all we're being invented around the same time so i belive it'd be fair.
But essencially, we created the internet, and we wouldnt be having this conversation without britain. Hip hip hooray!

The main difference is kinda highlighted in the way our respective armed forces handle problems...
You Yanks call in all the artillery, shoot the shit out of some place, whereas we Brits calmly take out the bad guys, without needing to rely on back up support.

Eh, we have the SAS... whatchu gonna do?
Exactly, as far as fighting goes, our SAS and SBS are the best, hands down - there's nothing else to it.
Something else i was wondering about, was the American army. A page or two back i was being told how big they are, and how highly trained they are. Now, i KNOW you've got a big army, but if your so big and highly trained, why beg England to come along with you? I just wouldnt have thought you'd need us.

Ok two things, why would a military with unlimited funding have shitty training. USMC has been one of the hardest working forces going on 100 years. and second the only reason we would ask the brits for help is to save face. Like I said, you can ask us for help when ever you get into something, but us were the big bad guys. I know this is redundant but we pulled England out of two world wars (if it was at the wrong time or not, without us you would be gone), not to mention why kennedy sent troops to Vietnam. . . I'm sorry but England roots alot of hate around the world and I am dead sick of Americans being the enemies. . .

Belgium helped a lot in stopping WWI
Farmers opened the drains and flooded the battlefields surrounding Ypres, so drowning the Germans.
Just couldn't let this unsaid :D
Btw, a world war is called that way for a reason.
I don't remember who it was that said it, but stopping the Cold War isn't really a pro-America point, I mean, they started that shit, they sure didn't stop it on their own, out of own initiative.
And on a personal note, I prefer GB, it's closer to home, and their culture (humor, literature) is more fascinating to me than America's.

Exactly, as far as fighting goes, our SAS and SBS are the best, hands down - there's nothing else to it.
Something else i was wondering about, was the American army. A page or two back i was being told how big they are, and how highly trained they are. Now, i KNOW you've got a big army, but if your so big and highly trained, why beg England to come along with you? I just wouldnt have thought you'd need us.
Hmmm yes I'd believe that your special forces may be more trained than ours. Your country is much smaller, and can't rely on sheer numbers. So more money and resources can be focused on their training. The problem with America is that we own too much land, too spred out, too many people. So we must accomodate time and efficiency (to an extent) for numbers. Though don't be silly... you know we didn't beg you guys to come along, our greedy governments had some deal worked out because you guys want some of the pie too :thumbsup:

I don't remember who it was that said it, but stopping the Cold War isn't really a pro-America point, I mean, they started that shit, they sure didn't stop it on their own, out of own initiative.
And on a personal note, I prefer GB, it's closer to home, and their culture (humor, literature) is more fascinating to me than America's.
You don't have to have my opinion.
Don't you realize that decades of diplomacy and economic pressure from a large portion of the world had nothing to do with stopping the cold war?
The cold war ended when Ronald Reagan said "Tear down that wall". [/snarcasm]
America? Culture?
...We have frozen yogurt, does that count?
We have seen pictures of culture, but we barely have civilization in some areas. The best we can claim is a few traditions and establishments.
Give us a couple more centuries.

Check out the majority of your country spending hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to go to college, then being in debt after that. Check out all the people that don't get free health service, a lot more then those that do. Unlike England.
This is weird for me coz i'm half English, half American. I was born in London. My mum is English and my Dad American. I've lived in both countries. I just couldn't stay in America with the harsh cannabis laws, ridiculously expensive college costs and expensive ass health insurance.

i think you need to cite your sources there because there are plenty of ways to get a free education, and if the majority is not taking advantage of that, then thats just them showing their lack of drive. either that or they make enough money to where they dont need funds given to them for college.

Eh.
America's god is the almighty dollar. Even incarcerating people is a means of revenue either directly or through free labor. That's how I feel about it, at any rate.
As far as military might and whatnot. We flex it a lot more than we should. When I went to Bosnia, they pretty much told me the reason for a war every 10 or so years was population control, as well. A lot of Americans have no faith in the virtues of the people running the country, but, when push comes to shove, they aren't the ones pointing the guns. I resigned my commission after Bosnia. An epic affair at that. I didn't do things right when I left the base and I was escorted back by two very disgruntled men from one side of the country to the other. Our training, even as infantry, isn't point and click as you seem to think, though. Our infantry is very stamina oriented, and that's not even the best of it. I wanted to get into the Rangers after running into them during HALO jumps. Lasted 3 days, after completing AI training, even. But, honestly, in the event that we would actually find out who would win the "who has a better army" contest, well, that would pretty much signify the end of all things if it got to that point. So, lets keep that a little internet contest. Lord knows you'd be celebrating your victory somewhere huddling for warmth in a cave after a few well placed high yeild explosives, if you were better, anyway. The only reason to attack england would beA) them striking first or B) us needing more land, in which case the world would have either A) pissed us off enough to not care about what we blow up or B) turned to complete shit that we'd actually stoop to that. There's really nothing in the way of resource to collect or anything. We'd pretty much lose human resources and gain nothing in the end. That's strategically retarded.
Economically, even, the economy is shifting eastward and britain has been impotent for years. We're both fucked there, too. We're busy making our money from our own citizens for efforts that further grease the wheel of out-sourcing and I'm surprised your island still has trees : P
When I go to Europe, it feels a lot the same as it would sitting here. I mean, the whole relaxed laws thing is snarky and all, but, I wouldn't exactly go testing the theory with an American accent. I love the architecture and pubs. I hit a bad joint once, though. Some guy blaming me for all the problems in the world but eventually it boiled down to me being a good enough sport about with lines like "yeah, i did [what he just said] and now I'm here for your beer to top it off. got a smoke?" eventually the guy gave up on trying to piss me off and bought me enough shots to test my my mettle and see if I couldn't get pissed yet. And, in England, I don't feel as if I could have my head blown off at any minute like I do walking in a new york alley at 2am.
Also a lot more culture to delve into or explore, being that its an ancient society that still stands. America had its own natives but we had a habit of killing them off and burning what wasn't pretty and/or shiney.
I like Russia more than either, though. Something about it when I go there just makes me happy. Feels like there's actual wilderness there. Now that is some old history book shit right there. A lot harder to navigate due to language and a lot more funny looks and ostracism since I'm not quick enough with russian to really grasp a full speed conversation. My grand plan is to become a resident there, someday, though. I just want to live unknown in the woods with a pretty lady and raise my own food. This society nonsense has been great for the last 30 or so years, but, I'm damn shocked I'm still alived or able to move without a wheelchair at any rate. And, since the advent of the internet, the greatest minds that could have been something focus their goals on convincing other people they are right on forums and our scientists shift to making better computers and forgetting about simple things like... I dunno... flying cars.
Eh, reminds me of a rocky movie that never was, anyway. I see some fancy lad with a monicle, tophat and a little cigar talking at a press conference to some beef-fed steriod machine who can barely open his muscle bound mouth to contradict his seemingly witty banterings (the only reason I find british funny when they try to be is because they cleverly elaborate and accent their jokes with excess words while an america will typically deliver the same style of joke in a less elaborate sense, ruining the depth somewhat).
Eh, America, though. Kinda dumb now that its on the internet all day. But, I can carry a gun so it all pans out.

Lol yes, yes i was. I ended up passing out because i was too high. You're rite, i don't know what the bogw or fafsa is. My point was that more people have to pay a lot of money to go to college then those that get scholarships and or grants. They are not easy to get, there is intense competition across the country. It may not have been hard for you but it's not simply a lack of effort that stops people going to college. A person's financial status definately plays a significant role in my opinion. Anyway, it doesn't matter. I like both countries, i just could never live in America again until they erase their mentality against cannabis, lower college education funds and health care costs.

Have you ever been to the Falkland Islands?
No you haven't because they're tiny and unimportant. I know I would never waste a bullet overthem. As beautiful and colorful as the rest of S. America is the Falklands are like a scab on Brazil's ass.
Interestingly, Brazilians are pretty sure they won that war.
Ok... I'll let you think that, but we both know nothing compares to the English SAS and SBS.
I'm not going to bother with this thread anymore, or i'll say something i really shouldnt.
Also, I'm not saying the SAS suck or anything... they're great. I'm just saying the US SO is overall better in all aspects.
I hope you're not offended by my extreme bias (and correct) opinion. :thumbsup:
Well i'd love to see and armed stand -off.
The SAS would have slaughted everyone in the area before they even realised there was other people there.
And by the way, your opinion isnt correct, neither is it incorrect. Opinions mean nothing :thumbsup: They're not fact, they're not fiction, they're beliefs.

If we won we would hand North Ireland over to Dublin. Under Sinn Féin rule.
Why? To piss you off.

They train infantry in America to be efficient snipers, not just SO and what have you.
In AI they throw us out on the woods for three days and we had to close in on a group of guys protecting melons. Three days we inch in on it and the goal is to be in range for a shot when the melon guards are ordered to pick up the melons. I waited for the guy to put his hands on the melon and shot it as he grabbed it and laughed my ass off as the next two pops from the side result in blown up melons.
We don't train all of our infantry to run in headlong shirtless with a neon bullseye on the forehead and a slingshot to fend off the enemy. We have them know their shit outside of just being ground pounders.
Our navy seals are also capable of stealthing right into a place and knocking it out. You think we roll up in camaros eating mcdonald's in one hand and pointing pistols at the joint with the other while listening to snoop dog? America is not retarded. We train our troops to be the best at what we need them to do. We even compare and adapt to tactics we learn from other countries and from p[revious combat engagements. You're not quite bright if you think you have the ability to train better troops. I wouldnt be either if I were so ignorant. We had British troops at our bases, learning from our drill seargents. So what did they come to get dumber because it looked like they needed the training. Don't be so daft, my friend. Our countries cooperate with eachother to train men efficiently. Certainly we each have our own little secrets (ours mostly being airplanes and satelites that can see through your roof, probably a conspiracy or two headed by extra dimensional beings, as well), but, its not a patriotically-blind rivalry like it tends to be on internet forums. Both of us know we don't want to get to pushing the other around with guns. Ever.
I really don't care who's country is better, all government ever served to do is ruin everything so thats like saying my oppressor is better than yours, but, a lot of this crap people say on the net is just ignorant.
America is also used to the english treating us like inferior shit. Its part of the reason we're America in the first place, and not a free resource for england.

To you maybe, but it's still British territory. Hence the reason why our navy sailed thousands of miles to kick Argentinas arse in less than 3 months!;)

I did alot of stuff with the army and RAF when i was younger.
Infact, fuck it, i'll have to prove myself once again wont i, stay there and i'll go and get my old uniform - it's not something i could bring myself to throw away, and concidering i bought it myself [RAF supplies are shit] i couldnt give it back.
Here we go.
I've got first hand experience with this kind of thing in England, and THAT's how i KNOW the SAS and SBS are better.
That one thing is fact, fuck everything else, england being better or america being better, it's got nothing to do with it. But the SAS and SBS ARE the best.
And to whoever said they wanted to hit me - you've obviously never seen me, so all i can say is goodluck chump :thumbsup:

I have a few weeks experience in amature kick boxing, but theres no way my legs would kick now without my back breaking in half.
But i can still fight, and i've still got fight left in me.

LOL, i wish my back was that good! Mines past it now, i can fight, i just cant kick high or run very well - but i never need to run anywhere so i dont miss that. I just have to get close, look nice and nut someone and then im in control from the begging - stops me needing to fight in tight spots and stops my back going. But i dont fight anyone anymore. It's just there if i need it.

Hurting people is stupid. It seems like this thread is getting people kind of heated. I honestly think it should be nuked. Set back, Inhale your herb, and fuckin relax.

I'm Canadian, so I'm impartial, but I have to call out whatever ignorant dumbass claimed that America liberated the Netherlands in WWII...
CANADA liberated the Netherlands in WWII, in early 1945.
Also, Germany invaded Britain in 1940 with Operation Sea Lion, where their Luftwafte (air force) tried to break the Royal Air Force, and they bombed the shit out of London and other cities in southern England...and guess what? They couldn't do it. The Royal Air Force sent them home packing. America arrives in the war in fucking DECEMBER OF 1941 (only after they get bombed), and most of their work is done in the Pacific. Explain to me how England was "saved" by America in WWII.
