We didn't exactly kick their *** in 1812.

Assuming that's the second time you're referring to.

Really? Hyperbole isn't spoken in your neck of the woods?


Not in the same dialect as yours, apparently. Our little spat with the Brits was far from the most pressing thing at that period in time. And let's be honest here, we were still a backwater colony while they were the strongest empire in the world. In regards to casualties, we clearly lost, and that was as the defender. If there had not been more important things going on, it's almost doubtless that the Brits could have reclaimed a good part of the colonies around that point. Especially considering that we'd alienated France.

We probably did much more damage to them by the Louisiana Purchase than the war of 1812.

When I am making ridiculous statements to a crumpeteer a history lesson is contra-indicated.

You know I think he might be. Revisionism, eh?

Of course we kicked your asses. You didn't see the U.S. abandoning their forts & naval emplacements on our northern borders, did you? We kicked your pasty Empire asses all the way back across the pond. We even got a nice little national anthem out of the deal. Oh say, can you see the receeding coast line in the rear view mirror of His Majesty's dwindling royal navy?

Seems to me if you kicked our ***** Canada wouldn't exist as a separate state. Mmm, Empire victory goodness. It's not so much you kicked our ***** more France was a more pressing matter. Y'know like it had been for the past 300 years. It's easy to forget about ex-colonies when people are pissing on your doorstep.

Please. Canada is where we store our natural resources. We consider it a butler's pantry. That you couldn't handle your business on two fronts is just further proof that it's better to be feared than loved. In Britain's case they were neither. Keep holding on to Wales, though. Empiry goodness!

You should probably learn what "Britain" means. Not that you will, because 'merika is so damn superior. Also do you really want to keep pretending that you guys are the be all and end all at this war thing? You do realise the last war you won was Korea, right? No, wait you didn't win that... Oh! Vietnam? No, didn't win that either. Oh yes, the last war you were involved with that ended in victory was WWII. Going to live off that win forever, huh?

Kind of reminds me of English football fans, always banging on about how we won the world cup in 1966, only just getting to the final a few times since. It's quite sad, really.

Not to mention:

Don't forget Iraq, pal. Twice.

Thanks for looking after Basra, by the way.

And when was the last time you folks handled your business? Oh yeah, that other sh:tty little rock in the Atlantic, The Falklands.

EDIT: 8 years and I can't figure out f'ucking quotes.

Granted, we didn't flex our mighty war-peens by pushing a couple puffins off a rock.

We're all about subtlety these days. Got some of the best special forces in the world. Why use heavy bombardment when a 5 man team can get the job done?

Those batty boys in the SAS? Delta lets them caddy at the annual International Special Forces Invitational. Other than that, they're not really good for much once the pros show up.
#65REDACTED, Posted: Jul 12 2011 at 8:27 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) You also essentially created Israel, so that kind of negates the subtlety bit.

You also essentially created Israel, so that gives you an A+++++ barbarism/military rating.

This is true. Shit would have gone down a lot better if the Palestinians and Israelis had accepted the original territory agreement drafted by the British government at the time.

That's just a factual observation. I don't think the Israeli claim to that land is valid, but whatever.

Oh bullshit, if you could have you would have. The only reason the US was even in Europe was out of a sense of self preservation. If it were for any other reason, you know like helping out your allies, you'd have joined in '39 instead of '41.

You think we'd have won WWII if the ***** hadn't decided to attack Russia?

If not for Lend Lease, you wouldn't have lasted until the US entered the war militarily.

Probably in early August, 1945. If by "we", you mean the US Smiley: grin

No, we were helping white people fight white people.

Nah, we like you, but we wanted to see you suffer a bit first. Payback for being arrogant in the face of dwindling power.

No, we would have won eventually if the ***** had been smarter. You would have tagged along and cheered.
