Yeah, I mean, its not like Americans kick EVERYONE whether they're down or not. Turnabout is fair play I guess, but it does sting a bit.

[edit]I hope shipping costs bite you in the arse :P [/edit]

You should be fine.

I got my HL2 from a Canadian site, and I never had any trouble with my Steam account.

I heard Steam was mercilessly shutting down accounts created from foreign versions... but it's only for the people who bought a serial number in China.

You should be safe.

If all else fials we'll simply conquer Europe and make them use the dollar.

Besides, don't they have extraneous debts to pay off of for the Big One?

I think they do, unionizing bastiches...

Not the UK, last payment for the WW2 $4.34 billion loan was made last year.

On the other hand, there is that money they borrowed for the first war.

Damn, had a post sitting waiting for me to hit "post now" saying just the same thing!

But, the UK does remain for ever in the US's debt for saving them and winning WWII for them Wink

Really? With that giant head? Smile

K, I understand, I thought Megan Fox was the only good part of Transformers. And who would have watched New Rose Hotel (except WiGBers) if it wasn't for Asia Argento?

I think the wren meant "thankgod for Ben Affleck saving the world from the horrors of WWII".

Though, I do believe there are sick bunnies out there who actually like The Affleck.

Just saw this.. Maybe it just to open conversation?! I know at the pain clinic people, especially the, um, older ones, try and strike up conversation along similar lines.. Sometimes, especially when I am in alot of pain, it bugs the hell outta me, and I have some very un-PC thoughts.. But, sometimes, when you're at the hospital alot, its nice..

I hate it. I always stick my nose in my book or iPaq, and pretend I haven't heard.

People rarely initiate conversations with me. I guess that's good?
