I would just like to, for the sake of argument, to defend America over the United kingdom. Here was the main arguments from the person of the British side:

MOST Americans are fat and stupid.

Well, if it's athletics and fitness that makes a country, then lets take this fact.

Number of Medals Won in the Olympics
1 United States 2,112
2 USSR 1,234
3 United Kingdom 665
4 France 601
5 Germany 573
6 Italy 478
7 Sweden 471
8 Hungary 442
9 East Germany 410
10 Australia 352


woooooo, looks like America barely scrapes by with only 1,447 more... close one.

But it's not muscle that makes the culture. I agree, definitely that intellegence makes a better man. Well, I bet that the United Kingdom has produced more Nobel Prize winners and has more students attending Universities.

Countries with the Most Nobel Prize Winners

1 United States 270
2 United Kingdom 101
3 Germany 76
4 France 49
5 Sweden 30
6 Switzerland 22
7 Netherlands 15
8 USSR 14
8 Italy 14
10 Denmark 13

Countries with the Most University Students

1 United States 14,261,778
2 India 6,060,418
3 Japan 3,917,709
4 China 3,350,715
5 Russia 2,587,510
6 France 2,062,495
7 Philippines 2,017,972
8 Italy 1,892,542
9 Indonesia 1,889,408
10 Brazil 1,868,529


oh... well... I gues they were CLOSE with the nobel prize winners... I mean, we only had two and a half times as many. Funny, I don't even see them on the other list... wierd. But I mean, London, Birmingham and all the other islands/provinces/etc. must have a much higher tourist Population.

Most Visited Countries

1 France 75,500,000
2 United States 50,900,000
3 Spain 48,200,000
4 Italy 41,200,000
5 China 31,200,000
6 United Kingdom 25,200,000
7 Russia 21,200,000
8 Mexico 20,600,000
9 Canada 20,400,000
10 Germany 19,000,000

... you know what. I think my point is proven. These statistics are all from Aneki.com, from 2003, and unless somehow THe UK has miraculousy doubled their Tourism rate and number ofUniversity Students, manage to win 190 nobel peace prizes, and somehow win a couple thousand olympic medals, then I dont' want to hear any english bastard say to me ever again..

MOST Americans are fat and stupid


and use that somehow as evidence as to why the UK is better then us.

P.S. I personnally do not hate the UK , I think it is a great country with very nice people, this is strictly for that one british fuck who says stupid things without and evidence other than that he's been to New York. bitches.

i must admit that it's very impressive, but the per capita figures water it down quite a bit.

nonetheless, nationalism is just silly

Yeah, but you see, he stated that MOST americans are fat and stupid, so that wipes out the population to about 100 million. The other 200 million are too "fat and stupid" to win medals, or nobel prizes, or attend universities.
