Believe me, I don't have to TRY to make fun of you. And I don't put any American fruit on my "English" muffins because I'm NOT a Pom. And our cows are just as sane as any other citizen.

I love vinegar (& salt) on chips - but I don't think I agree with any other use of it... Only on chips.

It's not personal. It's just war.



What about a splash of balsamic on a salad?

It is most likely due to you being an idiot.

I appreciate what you mean. But on the other hand the knowledge gained in this way can be fragmented and out of context. Learning about history online is a bad way of doing it. A little knowledge is so often the excuse for holding a very unhumble attitude towards all the stuff that isn't known.

Empires die hard, that's all I can say.

I'm going to ask a few people and see just how unique my ignorance is, because I'm pretty sure I'm not alone. Like I said, Americans are astonishingly ignorant of the world.



I, too, am glad I'm not a sock puppet!

Yes, of course.

I'm sure you're not alone. You must be aware that Americans have a reputation for astonishing ignorance of the world; a stereotype I try not to buy into. Or put it this way, I appreciate that it's the flip side of everything that's great about them.
