Whatever happened to the USA?

Tired of discussing the Bunnymen and all the bands that have been influenced by them? This is the place for you.

Whatever happened to the USA?

Postby Scouser » Mon Jan 10, 2011 1:05 pm

I don't live there so I can't comment but its starting to look seriously fucked up. Over here people throw eggs at John Prescot and thats about the end of it. In the US there is Sarah Palin who frightens the bloody life out of me.

What is the perspective from the other side of the pond?
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

Palin makes Thatcher look like Mother Teresa.

You can twat someone when you get pelted with an egg. It's a bit more difficult when someone walks up to you in broad daylight and shoots you. Try twatting them when you have been shot in the brain.

Blame the Americans for taking away our identity. It sucks. Yes but no but yes but no, the UK has been heading like that for a while. The general me me me, dog eat dog behaviour in society. TV for the common people, allowing the masses on council estates to get all excited at some washed up soap star dancing on celebrity dancing on ice, or some crap soap operas taking up most of the christmas TV schedule with the most depressing cot death baby swap stories and we are there. Chav society now innit? You givin' me the evils? Sometimes I wonder about immigrating... seriously.

I was way to busy admiring Holly Willoughby's assets to notice. Undoubtedly the winning pair in this series, as always.

No. I wouldn't watch Dancing on Ice even if that girl's knockers were actually out on show for all to see and she was later getting down and dirty on the ice with a naked Holly Willoughby... well, maybe I would then.

Across the pond opinion: The guy is mentally unstable and dangerous, even without the charged political rhetoric, which certainly didn't help.
