This is very old.  I\'d probably be laughing if I wasn\'t American. :)  I\'m guessing it was made by someone in the mid east

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Being from both America and Australia, I can see it from both angles.

It is pretty old, yet still funny, though I think some of the attitudes displayed have now changed.

Accept for our backwards neighbours of course ;)

America according to Euros:

stupid racists who don\'t know anything about history and believe that only America is good.

Boy do I ever get tired of unfunny jokes.

Hahaha, I didnt get offended by the joke primarily because I know that that is not the way most Americans think of the rest of the world, at least about places like Australia, England etc.

Accept for the Canadians of course...

it would be pretty accurate just change europe to "land of smelly rude people" and england to "those snobby people with funny accents who think we like them"

But Canada deserves it!!!

Its at the end of any good joke.

But seriously, most countries are pretty good these days, accept for anything in The Middle East, India, China, Canada, Antartica, New Zealand, Most of Africa... Err, this is like half the world...

Aussie pay out New Zealanders like Yanks pay out Canadians, but since I am both a Yank and an Aussie, I pay out on both ;)

Did you know that NZ\'ers have sex with sheep???

Thats an old one...

I\'m Canadian and i\'d just like to say that it takes a lot ot insult us.

we don\'t really mind that we have no army (where in reality its actually a mediocore army. Not big nor small) which is the blunt of many many jokes. We know were not known as being military equipped to the fullest.

but you see Canada is the Little Brother to the USA. Think of how cool it is to be the little brother of the most popular guy in High School?

Canada gets ALL the perks the USA does (the ones that matter anyways) and almost none of the responsibility.

Were care free people...we got the cold half of the continent but still...

In the end I love living in Canada, simply cause were right beside the USA and of course being Canadian I have my own patriot esq reasons.. Say what you want but its a pretty sweet deal.

And one day...us Canadians will teach the USA how to add alcohol the their beer...and the BCer\'s will have no problems sharing its stash I bet...

Buddy, Canada is so not the little brother of the USA, I mean, just because your situated next to us doesn\'t mean that theres some closers bond.

I have noticed the same sorta thing in Australia towards New Zealand. New Zealand are always trying to grasp Australia, to be honest, they need to become alittle more independant.

They have a pop. of 3 Million, have no army, get everything last, and suck at football.

I think Canada needs to do the same, sprout some feathers and stop grasping onto the USA for guidence and safety.

Close; I\'m tanked, but maybe a twank as well. Sorry, but that explains my lack of coginitve abilities(at the moment), and primarily my reading skills.

Sorry, it was a knee-jerk reaction.

The hugs and kisses still apply;)

No One, to answer your question...

I was born in Hawaii in 1983, and when I was like one month old my parents moved to Australia.

Now, I have never been to America (as in the continent) until last year, when we all went there on a holiday.

I am an Australian citizen now, but I have this weird contract/letter thing from the US, don\'t know what its called, its like I am a half citizen to the US or something, its weird.

What are you talking about man? Of course Canada is the little brother of the USA. Simply look back on everything the USA does for us and its more of a family than a friendship.

I can\'t reply to most of your post, because I don\'t know much about Australia or New Zealand and i\'m not interested enough to go out and learn about either (no offense to my Aussie and New Zealand brothers, i\'m sure you guys don\'t wanna go out and learn about Canada any time soon). Therefore I won\'t reply on a topic I don\'t know about, I\'d suggest the same because it appears you don\'t know much if anything at all about Canada / US family like bond and if you say their isn\'t one then I do not know what would influence such an opnion.

LONG STORY SHORT...I live in Canada, and living beside the US makes my home all the better. You say we should bulk up and stop relying on the USA? very true, and someday those ideas will come true. But for now I\'ll say it again about being family with the USA...

"It\'s a pretty sweet deal"

Canada might as well be a part of the US.

Except Quebec, they\'d probably try to secede or engage in some other weird French behavior.

Racer, just because your deepest wish is to kiss US ass doesn\'t mean they give a s***. Canada is way closer to them than Australia is. Live with it.
