As another European, I want to say that this guy doesn't represent us.



I'm too old for this gaming shit.

I'm not rude. I'm trying to prevent terrorism.

You know, Spain has other two historical nationalities besides the Basque Country (Catalonia and Galicia), and funnily enough, they don't have any terrorist nutjobs.

Yep, but there is a Basque terrorist group (I think it's called ETA). Just trying to keep Troll_Whisperer from being recruited.


Hahahahaha, this guy  is incredible

Man, I really don't have a specific nationality, I have lived as long all over Europe as I have lived all over in the US.

 

P.S. The Basque Country is not  country, it just happens to be a regino whose name has the word "country" in it. Same as Catalunia and Galicia.

Where were you born? What nationality did your parents have?


That's not exactly what nationality is. Nationality is something you identify with and consider your own nation. Plenty of Europeans can be of American nationality, in fact some immigrants are more nationalistic than some natural born Americans.

As it stands any country I have been in has its down falls and upsides, in some one outweight the other. I only put myself as European because I find that Europeans have far, FAR, more practical culture than Americans. For example, Why the hell do I have to shower if I never left my house for 3 straight days due to finals? Americans will be shocked, even when I show them beyond any reasonable doubt what a downright retarded idea that is. Most Europeans will agree with me.

You're right about the whole "nation" thing. Must be weird to not identify with any nation. Do you feel all empty inside?

As for the bolded, WTF dude???!!! That's just gross. What Europeans have you been talking to? The French?

 

As for the shower thing. You do realize that it is highly impractical? Unless you shower with antibacterial soap (which you should not do under any circumstance) then you barely wash off the bacteria sticking to you, and the rest ends up travelling all over your body. So you end up with bacterial from your foot on your chest. Furthermore showering where you scrub and use soap, is extremely damaging to your skin. Lastly, the reason you do shower is to get any dirt you brought from the outside off you so it doesn't stick to your home. If you never left home the purpose is gone. That is also another retarded thing Americans do wrong, they shower in the morning, not when they come home for the day, completely defeating the point of showering.

lol it's not an American thing. In Scandinavia we shower every day. And the vast majority prefers to do it in the morning (hint: you might not want to smell bad at work). If you don't shower every day you are considered pretty much being a filthy person here.

Is this a common Romanian habit not to shower very often? (if anyone wonders, Vlad is originally from Romania)

What makes this post REALLY funny is that I have never even set foot in Romania before.

A Sri Lankan living in the USA? It's not farfetched at all.

Take me, for example. I'm Jordanian, but I live in Saudi Arabia.

@Sapphi Snake. You do realise there are also non-violent Basque seperatists? They have a very different identity than the Castillians.

Cool. But are websites like VGC allowed in Saudi Arabia?

You live in a big city? Riyad? Medina? Mecca?
