Why is it that NORTH AMERICANS are better then EUROPEANS?
 

I mean when you think about it north america was basically settled by europeans (indians dont count).

so why is it that we are so much better then euros?

all euros do is sit and around cry all day and expect other people to handle their business. Is this why most of europe is turning into a crap farm?

i think the main reason i have discovered is that the smart euros realized europe was turning into a piece of shit so they came over to north america leaving the mostly inbred, ugly and stupid euros behind to fend for themselves.

this to me explains alot of you euros on GFY. you are mostly ugly, stupid and also extremely annoying like an ADD kid after a jug of koolaid.

this to me is the reason why canada and the usa (forget mexico) are such a young nation and are so much better then all of europe combined.

so is my thinking off? explain to me please, why is north america so much better then europe?

without me getting caught up in a shitstorm I will try and reply...

I think Euros have a much more relaxed way of going about life than us North Americans. From my travels in Europe I have gotten the sense that people are more laid back, don't stress about the little shit and overall are generally more happy. Thats just me though....

PS. My travals have included Holland, France and Greece. I know it's only 3 countries but Greece especially had a huge mix because it was during the vacation season.

Huh ? :)

and it is "better thAn". Why do all Americans make that mistake? :P

don't know, that's just the way we roll

I´m pretty sure it´s the flourishing economy, the relentless fight for civil rights and liberties and the social responsibility, to mention the most important advantages.

i agree with your entire statement. :thumbsup

OK, I´ll try to give a serious reply. I used to run my servers in Germany. They offered long time contracts only, boxes were quite expensive and service was low. When I switched to a US company I got excellent support, much better prices and I´m not forced in a long time contract. So I have to agree that there are advantages.

On the other hand I may quote Mark Twain here:
"I am morally superior to George Washington. He couldn't tell a lie. I can and I don't.":)

Why do Canadians sew a big fucking Maple leaf emblem on the back of their rucksacks? And why do they all come from 'just outside Toronto' - does anyone actually live in Toronto or do they all live just outside it?
Why are Americans so fucking loud when they're abroad? And where the fuck do they buy those check trousers?
Why do the Japanese carry cameras bigger than themselves and use umbrella's at the first sight of the sun?
Why do the Chinese stop on the street right in front of me, so I nearly fall over them? They come from the most densely populated country on earth, you'd think they be used of walking in the street.
Why do Australians I've never met before, call me mate?
Why do Russians never smile?

I dunno but I would like more European chicks around.

They Fuck good.

we travel with our flags cause we have fathers and great grandfathers that died for them.

not to mention, it gets us a lot of free beer.

Although we like to joke and poke fun at ourselves and our country and silly Canadian ways we are a proud people. And for good reason, we have a lot to be proud of.

I mean, where else on earth can you enjoy a good feed of boiled moose cock? Seriously.

Aren't you from Ukraine?

no winnipeg, close enough.

so so far not one good reason to prove otherwise?

well im used to seeing euros historically not put up a fight so i guess its no surprise.

This just in: France read this thread and surrendered.

"all euros do is sit and around cry all day and expect other people to handle their business. Is this why most of europe is turning into a crap farm?"

The european economy is stronger than the north american economy....

quoted for truth!

EGAD! THEY HAVE GUVNS TOO

Shouldn't you know this already?

I doubt you are a born Canadian.

Sounds like you and I have seen some of the same country. I traveled all over Europe and found them to be very friendly, easy going people. I tried to stay, but the military said I had to go home and could return after I processed out...LOL
I do plan on returning with my wife so she can see how beautiful Europe is.

And to think I was trying to save them some money by not sending me home....sigh

sorry....did not mean to go off topic ;)

It could have something to do with understanding the difference between "then" and "than."

/shrug

ha ha ha - I seriously hope that post was made as a joke :)

I don´t wanna generalize but I of course meet a a lot of nice americans but also enough
americans and heard enough news from the US to never EVER wanna live there....

Christ, you even elected Bush TWICE !!!!!

"Euros" (We are actual several countries) are, in my opinion,
- more laid back
- more liberal
- less double moral than in the US
- don´t carry weapons around and think it´s our right as citizens
- don´t invade other countries
- live in a part of the world where two jobs and a cut throat attitude is not needed

But I love visting your country.......Great food and the dollars is kind of worthless at the moment :)

As someone who grew up in Germany and has been living in the US for ten years I think a "better than x" comparison is totally pointless.
I personally prefer the US to living in Europe but that's preference.

There are great things and not so great things about everything, including Europe vs. USA.

Frankly I'm perplexed seeing a thread like this because in this day and age one would think any intelligent person realizes that there are upsides and downsides to everything, and one simply cannot say one country/continent is better than the other.

Also, Europe is comprised of many different countries, each with their own traditions, quirks, policies, and attitudes.

Saying "Europe is this and that" or "Americans are this and that" is way too generalized to have any merit IMHO.

All Americans don't make that mistake. :2 cents:

No worries, MetaMan is just pretending to be american. Only he knows why.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

You really are a smug dumb shit; you see your a dumb American and I'm Canadian so I can get a way with it... Don't you get it.... its not about countries, but special interest groups like the free masons... not that I'm promoting them... who buy and sell your asses...

sry, bad hair day!

very well said statement1 Thanks for sharing!

O'Rly?

Weren't the last two 'World Wars' started by European invaders? Or do 'Euro' on 'Euro' invasions not count?

ever heard of the term "same shit different pile"? think of the "middle east" do you think of the separate countries in it? or do you think of one big shithole and call it "the middle east"? YOU CALL IT THE MIDDLE EAST BECAUSE IT IS ONE BIG SHIT HOLE, you generalize because it is ONE BIG SHIT HOLE.

same deal with europe.

"I personally prefer the US to living in Europe but that's preference."
so you agree with me, THANK YOU

Oh, please! Canadians rock flags on their bags to identify themselves as not americans.

He's from the Netherlands. :2 cents:

get me a canada flag to show that we are not french canadians and you have yourself a winner.

it pains me to explain to people that only the shitty part of canada is french, and then they are like "ooooo so not everyone is canada is whiny and stuck up" and im like "nooo only the french part".

you are the EXACT dude you dont want to bring around chicks.

you are the type of dude to get drunk and tell girls the same joke 20x throughout the night even though it was not funny in the firstplace.

basically you are a big loser who somehow finds himself humorous.

See, I knew you were franck. He's experienced that with me first hand!

French Canada is fun too, but way different than the rest of Canada.

Sweden? :upsidedow

thats because we wont let you :)

The European economy looks bleak. Unemployment is high. Growth over the recovery has been weak. And Germany ? the powerhouse ? is facing major economic difficulties. However, Jenni Greenslade and Andrew Sentance argue in this article that a turning point is in sight. Some of the depressing influences on recent European economic performance are fading. And there is plenty of capacity for growth without inflationary pressures emerging. It is time to show some cautious optimism about European economic prospects, though the problem of high unemployment is likely to take many years to erode.

And ?? I said "The european economy is stronger than the north american economy" which it is.

Dude come back when you're country know how to dress and aren't obese. Europe is where its at!

Lol your from scotland, scotland is the fattest country in europe and the second fattest developed nation just behind america :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

We bathe and brush our teeth daily.

:)

You hit the nail on the head of why America is greater than Europe.
But hit that nail so badly you missed the point.

Look at the US economy prior to 1914 and then again in 1939, then again 1960, 1980 and 2000. Look at how it changed from a largely rural to an industrial economy. Then look at why and who paid for it.

Two World Wars largely made the US what it was. A world leader.

Now look at the US economy 2008 and see if you see a trend.

The US will always be a major power, it produces a lot of food, energy natural resources. The problem will be if it can produce enough to stay on top.

Europe will always be different nations. Well for our life times.

The good thing about Europe is, your chances of beeing killed are small. The most dangerous locations have 2-3x lower murder rates than the safest in the US, for example. Thats the biggest difference, I think, other than that, life quality is pretty much the same.

I was discussing this many years ago with An American. He was not going to London because of the IRA terrorist attacks. He lived in LA in the valley. I told him he would be safer in Belfast on Orange Day. Than there. :1orglaugh

Scotland is a much smaller nation. We'd fit into America 50 times over.

Oh and its "you're from Scotland" not "your from scotland"

Thanks.

North Europe are the smartest people in the world!

Because you seem to constantly feed your own ego by trying to begin pointless international keyboard wars.

Yeah, its interresting how scared some people are to travel to some countries, even though 95% of them are safer when it comes to homicide.

Pity more of the smartest people in the world don't post here then. :1orglaugh
