That's a nice achievement for the second best country in North America.

Voted just another day. I'm not really much for ceremony, or observance of holidays. "Oo. Put on your little hat and twirl around three times when you hear the horns blow, because that's what we do on this day.".......No! :)

Thank you!



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

I have now lived in Canada for 10% of it's lifespan. I guess that's an improvement to the 7.6% of the lifespan of The Netherlands that I witnessed, although I lived there for 65% of my lifetime. What is my age?

There's a nice high school math quiz :p

Answer toy are old as fuck ;)

Anyway which birth of the Netherlands do you count the in 1839 (Kingdom of the Netherlands) or the birth of the Dutch republic in 1581. Because if you make it a high school math question it is nice to know which one we are talking about.

That answer is in the question, first and 3rd clue imply the second clue. And it's neither of those 2 options. It's the end of the eighty year war I used.

What's crazy is that Canada didn't gain complete independence until 1982, I've been alive longer than that. It took 115 years to get rid of any influence from Britain yet it was a much better way to gain independence than an 80 year war! Although I still had to swear allegiance to Queen Elizabeth II when gaining my citizinship and my Canadian passport is issued by the Queen as well.

All Spain's fault.

I am personally from The Netherlands so a 150 years seems like.... not much. But its still a day to remember for Canadians, so congratulations.

My country, Portugal completes today (1st July of 2017) 150 years of the death penalty abolishing. We were the first modern European nation to end the death penalty on 1st of July of 1867! 

Curious... same date

Oh, and we are 874 years old =P
