I didn't realize the Ireland bit, where only Northern Ireland was part of the UK.

LOL! :thumbsup:1orglaugh

great post - I didn't even know that to that degree

I actually do but most Americans won't know or care, lol.

Bing:thumbsup

We kicked their sissy asses off this continent for a reason, you know.

It was a nice day today in California, nice breeze, maybe about 68 degrees, not a care in the world and not worried about another country for sure

ummm, continent..... no.... Canada... duuuuu



Idiot


jesus I think the trolls on this board are getting dumber every day

I registered a month before you, dude.

You can call me an asshole, an ugly American, a hillbilly, ignorant...but you can't call me a troll.

Even when I be trolling your ass, Canada.

jimmy isn't a troll... lol.

Are you back for good Scotty or just on a break from work?

FYI, im thinking about buying some gallery spots from your TGP... want to work me a deal, the prices seem kind of high considering how the traffic to your site has been dropping. I'm not being mean or joking. I've got some money to spend, but your current price of $900.00 for 10 text links in the 2-6 spot seems like 2006 prices but your traffic is 2011. Just a year ago you were an alexa 5K and now you are alexa 15K. Your traffic took a huge drop but the prices seem the same.

Again I am not fucking with you, cut me a deal and I will try it out. If I can profit I will keep buying. But $900 for 10 link spots at your current traffic level, seems like its going to be hard to turn a profit with those prices.

its not 100% correct, people from northern Ireland can and do refer to themselves as Irish. He said Irish are only in the Republic.

He also says that Northern Irish citizens have UK passports...Actually NI citizens are automatically entitled to an Irish passport or an UK one, they have to choose.

I also object to the term "British Isles" to refer to both islands.

I do but then again I was born in England!

I live around a bunch of British expats and Im pretty sure they don't expect anyone to know that anyway, afterall england is the 51st state basically.

The USA could take all of it over in a matter of days or even hours.

what a great video, thank you for making GFY a little bit better place :thumbsup

From my experience the majority of Americans think that London is a country and are very confused about everything else past that in terms of the UK.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland encompasses the most of the three. As its full name suggests, it includes Northern Ireland in addition to Great Britain.

Great Britain is composed of three areas: England, Scotland, and Wales.

As for England, it is the largest and most populous portion of the United Kingdom.

USA owns all :)

You dont own shit - you loan :)

more like we borrow.

I need some photoshop designs hooked up with html/css. Hit me up. bcyber at gmail

Done that :)

interesting
thx

I grew up in Windsor, England. Home to the Queen, I was once stood next to some American Tourists taking pics of the castle, the lady asked a question... and I quote... 'Why did they build the castle so close to Heathrow airport.....'

nuff said.

Give it 30 years and India and China will own you.

who cares for that island.... :)

since i am moving there in few weeks, I do :)!

Thanks, Mark. I already knew about UK vs England but the info on the commonwealth and other forms of former colonies' relationships to the "Crown" was informative.

To be honest, most people in England wouldn't understand how it works to that level.

Thanks for the reminder.

boring video...

he didnt even say "arse".


Sabby:)

The only times Americans know about places outside the US is;

When they invade it, even then they're not sure where it is unless CNN get it right on the map. LOL

Some of the Americans I met didn't even know a lot about where they lived.

Sorry, but I'm not a nerd, But I'll drop that bit of info on some chick at a bar and see if that gets me laid.

Or care.

interesting stuff, i actually enjoyed watching it

Cool stuff, liked it :)

isreal is the 51st state

If you want some real humor, ask an American what America is (or a Canadian what America is).

Yes after the 2,124th occurrence of death by friendly fire, the US demoted Canada from the 51st state, to it's hat.

Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq all had militias and native fighters. Who in the UK is going to fight back? LOL. Well, besides the IRA!

I agree :thumbsup

Have always known the strange and anachronistic setup which dates from the time of Empire but don't care.

The entire thing has lost relevance, no longer exerts any real influence in the world and I wonder sometimes if the entire group of islands would be missed should they sink beneath the waves.

I have an old Scottish uncle, he says almost the exact same thing about the "west". A few hundred years ago we weren't here, and a hundred more we wont be no more.

Chances are the British Isles, UK and Great Britain will be.
