1. Football owns the world (btw: it's called football for a reason; because you play it with a ball, and not with an egg), since every country is interested in the World Cup, while no one outside the US really gives a shit about the Super Bowl/ American Football. (Guess where football was invented)
2. Basically all major inventions came from Europe - you are only good at stealing and copying. 3. We have the best cars on earth (Mercedes, BMW, VW)! You have GM(bankrupt), Chrysler(brankrupt) and Ford(shitty design all over). 4. All global languages evolved in Europe. 5. Everybody loves the metric system! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Metric_system_adoption_map.svg ...and it was a European country who introduced it. Only a few less developed countries like Liberia and Myanmar have failed to introduce it. 6. I'm pretty sure lers has been to America many times, while Europe has never been contaminated... 7. Question: How would the breasts of American women look like if they had to remove their implants. 8. Europe doesn't have mormons. 9. We care about our environment, i.e. we keep our coasts clean. 10. Our presidents don't choke on pretzels. |

at 8:33 AM, Wednesday May 26, 2010 EDT oh, and our pension fund is the result of;
norways economy was going good, and then we found oil ALOT of oil, instead of putting all that money directly into the economy that would lead to inflation on the inner marked, while the FOREX would be the same, thereby whiping out our norwegian export. instead we choose to put it all in a retirement fund. this retirement fund owns about 1% of all stocks in the world |

I never considered this discussion as serious. i dont know if you have actually read fins post http://kdice.com/discussion/topics/44797377. This is just a response to that and if you ask me it's a fucking stupid one. peace |

at 4:22 PM, Wednesday May 26, 2010 EDT as for mr kreuz:
you honestly believe that you creating 4 things justifies you as being on the same equipment level as the u.s. army? are you really that naive? you realise that just leaves several thousand other things that we invented ourselves right? and as far as you getting "the same planes as the u.s. army," again, your welcome, guess who invented those planes. and you still think you have more equipment per capita? what exactly makes you think that? did you not catch the part about how we spend 700 BILLION DOLLARS a year on our military, you clearly don't even fathom how much money that is invested in the military per capita. "a few norwegian produced weapons are so heavily used in the us army that the norwegian company had to set up factories in the US to be able to sell as much to the US army as they demand." you said it urself right there, your production capabilities couldn't even keep up with our MASSIVE DEMAND FOR WEAPONS. Norway invests 1.3% of their GDP in the military, whereas america invests 4.16% of its GDP (you must feel pretty silly right now) . you said it yourself, your military is for defense (meaning its useless) so stop even attempting to compare it to that of the u.s. again, id rather be good at basketball or baseball and make millions of dollars in america than be good at high jumping and win a gold medal in norway. ill admit that norway is one of the best countries in europe, but sadly thats not saying a whole lot. |
