Australian man arrested for escaping quarantine camp

He didn't deny anything just commented on the woeful extent of your ignorance .

 

Sorry kid. I AM AMERICA... my dad... his dad... their friends... my friends... WE ARE ALL AMERICA... WE AREA NATION! WE ARE A TEAM! WE ARE THE MOST AMAZING NATION THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN.... TOGETHER!

 

We are one and are maaaaany and from all the lands of Earth we comme ,.... Oopps, sorry. Just having a flashback to something irrelevant.

That aside. Point to where anyone in this tread said America wasn't a great nation. And then explain what it has to do with the topic under discussion. Because?????

 

I am sorry you are unable to brag about your country that imprisons innocent citizens.
I love bragging about my country.

 

That's the best you can do?

I don't need to brag about my country.

 

I understand. People who live in prison rarely brag about their abode.

 

D-day was a joint UK, American project I understand
Sustained and controlled flight was an American invention
Nuclear had a long pedigree going back to the Greeks, but
America mastered it first, but it was a close call as Japan, UK,
Russia and Germany were all in the race.
Mass production has been forever, but Ford might have got
there first with cars.
That's what us Aussies were taught, anyhow.

 

Actually per population we outperform America in inventions - guess who invented the cardiac pacemaker? Bionic ear? Etc etc etc

you have posted this fallacy before

 

I know America might be Gods own country but Australia is where he/she comes for a holiday!!!!

 

I've been to cities that never close down
From New York to Rio and old London town
But no matter how far
Or how wide I roam
I still call Australia home.

Oooops sorry - you were saying?

 

D-Day was JOINT exercise... but 80%... 80%.. American... keep grasping at straws
Yup... flight was the Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk in the Carolinas
Nuke may go back to the Greeks... heck... heart surgery goes back to the Aztecs... but the first nuclear power
plant that lit a city... was American.. Only ONE... ONE... ONE... WINS THE RACE
Sorry kid... Ford was the first one to make mass production work by making STANDARD PARTS... you will
learn this in high school

 

Sorry if truth bothers you... repetition of truth does not demean it.

 

Australia? Where's that? Oh... I saw a movie about kangaroos... and elephants... and zebras... is THAT where it is?

 

Folks from Harlem say that too

 

Gee that’s not a lot of innovations for a country with ten times our population

spray on skin for burns victims

medical application of penicillin

wi fi

black box

google maps

all Australian

We print half the world’s currency because we invented polymer bank notes

 

Please tell that to the Australians who constantly post here to be little our country.

Don't like the shoe on the other foot? Cry us a river

 

Aztec heart surgery... love it.
I understand that standardized parts went back to 1798 in USA, firearms,
but I suspect the history goes back a long long way before that with armor,
steam engines, ship parts etc..
I recall reading that the Carthagians built their amazing warships with standard
parts, and numbered each timber. That was kind of them because the Romans
could simply copy the timbers and make their own warships.

Trouble is, as the fans of Roslyn Franklin don't understand, the prize isn't
to anyone who finds a step in a process, it's the final step that counts.

 

You can always tell when someone knows they lied - they immediately change their claims. Thanks for the admission.

 

I know New Yorkers often get justifiably impatient and acerbic with some of the imponderable questions asked by visitors to this forum, so I thought I would share with you some genuine questions and answers from an Australian tourist website. I wish I could provide a link to this, but I received it from my daughter's office in an e-mail so I can't do it. Glad to see responses as witty a as those often seen here. Hope I started your weekend with a chuckle or two.....

A - What did your last slave die of?







Q- Can you give me some information about hippo racing in Australia? (USA)

I wonder if "our country" includes the two thirds of Americans who think Trump is a nincompoop.

 

No you were MIA for the first part of the war - you did not even really get involved until after Pearl Harbour

 

Wow! Aussies believe that we can disagree with people - how bizarre are we?

 

I know it's supposed to be humor but that is some dangerous misinformation on Australian snakes.

Australia is the only continent in the world where more snakes are venomous than non-venomous so the chances are if you see one you should leave it well alone.

 

Kid Rock said it best, a lot of people poke fun and that's all right but when I start poking back they get all uptight.

With your system of authoritarian government I wouldn't be casting too many Stones if I was an Australian

 

This thread is turning into a wonderful example of:

Otherwise know as personal anecdotes (subject to fantasy and incoherent blithering narrowmindedness) vs uncomfortable truths.

Enjoying tremendously
