Good point, is it true that all Americans are hesitant to buy smartphones and Europeans read Judge Dredd Megazine and like Iron Maiden?

[Mike]

I'm so confused about my continentuality. I buy a smartphone at the drop of a hat, but amn't that into Dredd or Maiden.



Am I bicontinential?

[garjones]

Clearly.

I think your values have been skewed by your time in Australia. They don't buy the Meg or Iron Maiden records but do like photography and lego.

The entire population of Europe is currently pissed off as there's no milk left in the fridge for the morning cup of tea.

Never mind the Euro being in doubt, this is a proper disaster!

[Steve Sensible]

An angry Europe can only mean one thing - WAR!!!!

Or a trip to the corner shop.

[Mike]

Oh! Wait, that's true! That happened to me too this morning!


Bruce DOES speak for my people! All hail King Bruce the First of Pan-Europia!

[brucegray666]

King? Cool. Does the position come with a hat?

[Mike]

It comes with a population of 739 million.

I'm sure we can probably find a hat somewhere amongst that lot.

[Steve Sensible]

King? Cool. Does the position come with a hat?

It does, but I'm not sure it's really you...




You could always declare war on America for possession of their King's hat:

[Mike]

Oh, my granny used to have a hat that looked just like that!

I think you should wear that hat Bruce, then nip to the shop for your messages.

Europe's girlfriend is going to do the weekly food shop so the milk crisis shall be solved with minimum effort.

This means Europe can carry on not wearing trousers.

[Mike]

The parallels are uncanny.

[Christian U]

Indeed. I am also not wearing proper trousers, and the milk resources are dwindling.

[craggy]

I don't really do the whole "milk" thing very often. Am suitably trouser-less though. Was considering going to the shops, but still have pizza from yesterday, so I should be able to hold it off for a while.

[garjones]

I still have pizza from yesterday and no trousers, this is getting freaky.

Although I am a European in Asia so I guess that may complicate things.

[Todd Gross]

No no, I think he does. I think tarring everyone on a particular continent with the same brush is an entirely wise and sensible thing to do.

Bruce speaks for Europe, Al speaks for America. Trust me, It's the way forward.

I guess I'll speak for Texas as as we don't always agree with the US and are always threatening to secede.

Depends. How's your milk supply?

[garjones]

Depends. How's your milk supply?

Not good.

[Christian U]

It's war with the Chinese for Europe, then.

I remember when "The Rules" was the fad of the day and some women I knew were mad because the book wasn't working for them. Turns out, a lot of guys had also read the book used it as a way to avoid those women.

LOL...

Al - I wouldn't take it that Bruce adequately represents the 500million people in Europe.

No, he definitely doesn't.

Now that I have your attention as you guys did
run off on a tangent... Here in the US, there are
a lot of therapists like Dr. Phil and Dr. Drew with
their own shows and advice columnists in newspapers
that Americans read and buy into. I can't say I know
how it is overseas, I was just saying that is how it is
in the States.

I am glad that this thread is alive now.
