Members jonathan_matos5 Posted September 29, 2006 Members Share Posted September 29, 2006 since this is an obvious parody to my canada thread ill answer with beer is mediocre here unless you go with an import or a microbrew. we like to blow {censored} up and make alot of noise and we cant get enough goods imported to sustain our own greedy selves. we like to go to other countries on vacation but because of our reputation of being arrogant bastards we pretend that we are from canada so people will not be as rude as we deserve to be treated. our public transportation system is different in every city. gear prices are apparently cheaper here too.

Members Thumper Posted September 30, 2006 Members Share Posted September 30, 2006 Booze is cheaper. Gear is cheaper. Gas is cheaper. We can buy guns easier. 711 pwns Tim Horton's. You guys have Yorkville, Garrison Brewing, and Bassgirl9. So it's a tie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members psychepsilo Posted September 30, 2006 Members Share Posted September 30, 2006 Originally posted by oldivor You can carry a gun with you here although you need a permit Not in all places... A few states have "sidearm" laws, which mean that if it's on your HIP, as in NOT concealed, you can carry it. Georgia is one of those states, though I've never actually seen anyone do it. Georgia is also a state in which you can legally own a real live automatic, though there are definitely intense permits involved with that one. On a more related-to-the-question note: Georgia is also the home of Savannah, which is not to be confused with anything else Georgian. If you like music, partying, beer and many other things that are "culture," you can't go wrong visiting that beautiful city. And it's very foot-friendly too. If you stay downtown you can easily walk anywhere you want to go (especially since you're already a Canadian who isn't afraid of his/her feet), and if you don't public transit can fairly easily get you there. I would strongly recommend AGAINST going for St. Patricks' Day... unless you're into that sort of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree wholeheartedly. Know what you do to get rid of a bad reputation?Stop doing bad things. If you've got a reputation for being a slut, stop sleeping around... or be proud of the reputation. If you've got a reputation for being an asshole, learn to be nicer. It's pretty simple really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Onkel Bob Posted September 30, 2006 Members Share Posted September 30, 2006 Originally posted by psychepsilo Nope... there's a vast difference between experience and assumption. Big one between assumption and what you see every day too. However, before any offense is taken, the only "assumptions" I've made about anyone on this forum, and experience thus far, is that y'all musicians, ie CREATIVE people, are far above the norm. Nothing less than I expected. I got some things mixed up because I've drunk more than twelve beers tonight. When I realized it I erased the post. Unfortunately you managed to qoute it before it was deleted. I didn't mean that you in particular make assupmtions about other people I meant that Americans do. At least that is my belief. You make just as many assumptions as Europeans. That was kinda what I was trying to say. Again by you I mean people in America. Not you personally.
