    Canadians!! Who'd've thought??!!!

    According to this report the largest group of ex-pats living in Thailand are Canadians!! http://www.nationmultimedia.com/deta...gnews/30356023

    And that's without counting Matt. Dame Edna once referred to Canada's national symbols in an interview with KD Lang - "your Mounties, your maple leaf, your beaver"

    No wonder Smiles disapproves of Matt letting the side down so often and so much

    No you're wrong Latin, they might WANT to try and pretend to be yanks for the purposes of hiding under the radar, BUT have you ever gone up to a Canadian and said " Oh so you're an American?" Na, they just can't hold it in, the instant and strong and HIGHLY offended denial comes rushing out of their mouths at breakneck speed to correct your error and to tell you that "NO they are NOT American THEY are Canadian in fact !"

    So, whilst they might TRY to play the yank when it suits unfortunately for them that A word is their genetic shibboleth and one that gives them up every time ! :-)

    Exactly. Nirish gets it better than I.
    It's even more appalling since the dumbest man in the world became the most powerful man in the world.

    And about that topic ...

    Have you any idea how much Blut und Boden you've added to my easy-going life by using the word "Who'd've" in a sentence which also includes the silly-ness of ??!! and wherein I must sit down with Mr Suphot attempting to explain what this all means, and why English has parts of words glued in, and why the English language is so stupid, and why I have to "say that again" at 1:00 am in the morning.
    Thanks a fucking million . . . dork.

    I used to think Americans were loud and obnoxious until I went to my Secondary School which had Americans and Canadians...

    And yes yes yes ... so which groups -- by nationality -- were the loudest, and the most obnoxious? Your answer must NOT be the canucks ... of course.
    Let's just think about the concept of the Ugly American shall we.

    In my experience small communities very often have a chip on their shoulder about their larger neighbours

    New Zealanders vs. Australians
    Canadians vs. Americans
    Scots vs. English

    It even gets down to the city level. A friend who lives in New Zealand says that those who live outside the largest city, Auckland, sometimes talk about "JAFAs" - Just Another Fucking Aucklander

    In my experience, it is often the BIG, POWERFUL countries that have a chip on their shoulders about the smaller countries in their vicinity. For example,

    China vs. Japan
    USA vs. Cuba
    UK vs. Ireland
    USA vs.Canada
    Thailand vs. Laos
