So basically you're saying that Europeans are a bunch of women? Personally I think you're being too hard on them. Is this some sort of self-loathing thread?

What concerns me about Europe is that their people are dying out and they don't get quality immigrants.

I especially loved this part of Dr. Higgins' column:
quote: What it really ****ing comes down to, is that they hate each other because they aren't American enough, even though they're trying hard to be more and more like us. Look at it like this: all the frats would stop talking **** about whichever one was throwing a big ****ing party with free beer. Europe's interested in America just like the frats were interested in the beer. It ****ing unifies them. Only, whereas the frats would alternate who threw the keggers, no European country can be America. Like there's only one Sigma Chi, and then a whole bunch of Alpha Delt dorks.
So the ****ing differences aren't even that different. Europe is just a shittier, second rate version of America. There's nothing you can find there that you can't find at a mall in the US, but there's all sorts of **** in the US you can't find in Europe. All the cities have that European look to them, all the toilets can't clean the **** off of the sides when you flush, everybody lives in a little ****ing apartment with no elevator and spends tons of ****ing money on shitty little cups of coffee that don't hold a candle to Starbucks. Except in price. |
I got tears in my eyes from laughing. Excellent, honestly!

The rest of that article comparing Hitler and Bush is "funny" as well. The attack on Bush seems genuine and mean spirited, while the praise of Hitler seems in jest. But, methinks that the praise of Hitler goes to far. Perhaps the Europeans really do admire Hitler?
"Hitler was the first to unify Europe under a common currency and single foreign policy, inspiring the European Union of today; Bush's unilateralism has split the international coalition, causing annoying arguments among trekkers at youth hostels the world over. Hitler was a captivating speaker, inspiring throngs of Germans to lift their right arms at a 45-degree angle; Bush has difficulty remembering each and every tiny little syllable, causing American intellectuals to curl the right sides of their mouths into what is known as a “sneer.”
In war, their differences are even sharper. When no one attacked Germany, Germany would attack and destroy them. When Saudi Arabia attacked the United States and slaughtered 3,000 people in the worst defeat in US history, Bush helped to shuttle the bin Laden family out of America while deferentially referring to the Saudis as “our friends.” Hitler introduced the blitzkrieg; Bush introduced the strongly-worded UN resolution. Hitler believed in astrology; Bush believes in Southern Baptism. Hitler liked to plan invasions; Bush likes golf.
Hitler was scary. Bush is silly. Hitler scowled. Bush smirks.

This article also was obviously penned before Iraq.
