I love how you just side step loopholes in your reasoning. Law school must be paying off. So what you're saying is that the only way in which I "come off incorrectly intelligent" to paraphrase a line is because I have a large vocabulary? And because of all the things I do that would tip me off to the larger world events I should know welsh was spoken? And because I'm 24 and am college educated I shouldn't be allowed to ask on a music message board?

You're far more arrogant than the Americans on these boards combined. And how does america have no culture? These are the aruguments I see as half-assed and underdeveloped for the sake of winning. I'm sure you over-looked the invention of Jazz, Citizen Kane, Angels in America, The Great Gatsby, Capitilism and Freedom, or any other great work American produced. And why? Not because its not here, or that its hard to find, you're just an uppity foreign elitist with all the arrogance you bash us for having. You're a hypocrite from start to finish and its disgusting.

Let me also point out that I don't think you're intelligent because you know the answers to trivial pursuit questions, live and Europe and worship England.

And your standard of what everyone should know, and to take it a step further, what constitues someone as intelligent is another shining example of this European mindset that we hear stereotyped in our conservative media, and that the logical people disregard only to have it reinforced by some irrelevent poster on a music forum. What makes you any more intelligent than someone who fixes cars, or develops AI, or knows how to settle disputes better than the rest of the feild. The bottom line is, there is no standard of intelligece. Do borrow from the post-modernists "everything is perspective based." Your arrogance is our humility, our brilliance is your stupidity. It doesn't make it right, it makes it what you think, and as you've shown us time and again, what you think is just arrogant pretence.

I don't know what the standard of living here would be since I've stated a thousand times now that each state is diffrent. In MA, all civil unions are legal, and we're passing legisaltion on universal healthcare, in South Dakota none of that is the case and abortion is illegal. The cost of living and taxes changes state to state, and how politics are run changes state to state. I don't know what the "american standard of living" is but we're all (you included) post-modern post industrial cities. Obesity and Diabeties are the main issues within the society, the biggest problem for most people in the Western First-world is what to watch on television that night. So if by standard of living you mean who gets more channels, well then there I'll say im being a stupid american again, I don't know who has better television programming.

And since whe is Europe seperated by an Ocean from Asia?

Neither freedom nor capitilism were not founded by America.

He meant the book "Capitalism and Freedom" by Milton Friedman.

On the subject of this poll, I can't vote because I don't see how somebody can 'win' such a pointless argument.

P.S. Right-Track, stop kissing American ass right now! They have everything they need within their own borders? Really? Until the time that Amsterdam and Bangkok relocate to the US I will have to disagree with you on that one.

Everyone's talking about ignorant American's I made blatant dumb comment. It's funnier on this side of the screen. I promise.

I didn't know that welsh was actually a language though. I mean that bit of information really doesn't do you any good in the US. I bet most europeans don't all the states and capitals and why the fuck would they? But also knowledge=/=intelligence.

Stupid people are everywhere, end of.

^You know that Irish (Gaelic) is a language though? To put it simply, most places that were seperate countries in the past with individual cultures developed their own unique language. Ireland, Wales, Scotland and the South-West of England (Cornish) all have their own languages which were completely different to English although Scottish Gaelic and Cornish have died out.

I had always assumed so but not certain.

It's easier for people to know more about what's close to them.
