venusenvy: I completely agree with you Summer. I lived in the States for a year and frankly it was shocking. Growing up in Canada I had this misconception that the States was somehow bigger, better, more advanced. What a culture shock it was to actually live there. Overall, It made me feel very very sad. However, this was just my experience.


I agree with Summer & Venus, It felt sometimes like I returned 30 years in time..

I felt sad too actually. Sad for the people who consistently wave the flag blindly hoping for improvement in their lives.

Canada was a whole different ball game. Mostly contented, vibrant people with a fabulous country to live in wine

Just my experience too

NCC1968: You forgot roads full of holes and bridges falling apart.

Now I'm still American and love my country, but it's not what it could be or even what it used to be - fundamentally speking.


Of course you love your country. America is a stunningly beautiful place.


BUT IT COULD BE 'AWESOME' lol

And the saddest part is..those who never left the US are those who knows the best how things going on in other parts of the world blah blah blah blah Because..I'm an American, and I know everything, and you are from a lil' Country In Europe, than that person asked me "Belgium? from witch Country is that the capital city?"
Yeah right, you makes your point clear sir!
Just an example..

gardenhackle: It's absolutely true. And not just because I say so. If you don't believe it's so, just look at how many discussions there are about US Politics and the complete absence of discussions about all the miserable dirty dealings going on everywhere else in the world. The USA is always the topic of conversation, advice, political analysis and completely idiotic monologues and diatribes for people all over the globe. Why?

Because every other country is utterly meaningless and irrelevant.

It's the only logical explanation.

So now you know. So let's give a big round of applause and appreciation for the USA, greatest nation of all as inadvertently voted by all the international members on CS. The US thanks all of you for your recognition.


No. America is so unimportant that it doesn't have it's own site on CS unlike Europe, Ireland, UK, Australia and New Zealand! So you use the international site to display threads like this and embarrass yourselves infront of the world!laugh

Thats sooooo uncalled for roll eyes

I think most would agree that America has had a lot of positive influences on our lives too. Not the government but the people. How many of us have soooo many happy childhood memories of Disney or movies like 'Its a wonderful Life'

Music!!!! Wow the music Ive grown up with from there smitten

America depends on oil. World oil resources are running out so the future of America will be bleak if they don't get out of their SUVs and do some walking.

Well, fellas, if you think some other country is more important, then maybe we can all switch subjects and talk trash about some OTHER country for awhile instead. I'm just going by CS posts. I'd wager posts about the US by folks talking about or domestic politics (you know, the part that's OUR business) outnumbers discussions and posts about ANY other country by about 100 to 1.

You might not like it... but YOU made us number 1. Thanks again to all of you who made this possible. :)

cheers
