No, but did I say that they were? You need to stop assuming and start thinking.What the statistics (yes the statistics that YOUR government puts out) say is that obesity is a huge problem its not just us Canadians saying that Americans are fat. And actually there are some really nice parts of the States and again I never implied anything about the US being a run down sh*t hole that everyone looks down on.

Again I ask you Stop assuming and start thinking

I have been to the US quite a few times, mostly to go shopping and visit a few relatives actually. You might want to stop assuming stuff, you're starting to look pretty stupid

so wouldn't that be a slightly negative aspect to the US lightteku? economic crises are generally a bad thing....you're starting to point out the flaws in your country, in other words your head IS COMING OUT OF YOUR ASS AND MIGHT BE ABLE TO SEE A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW ONE DAY!


but that's most likely just my wishful thinking. either way it looks for now like we've actually made a bit of progress with the yank

I'M GONNA SPELL THIS OUT FOR YOU REAL SIMPLE SO THAT YOU DON'T MISUNDERSTAND IT.I'M GOING TO USE WHAT IS CALLED LOGIC, SO TRY AND FOLLOW ME, BUT IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH SOMETHING, JUST SAY SO AND I WILL BE GLAD TO EXPLAIN IT.

Since you are obviously retarded and can't read I would like to point out that (hoping this time that your brain will actually recieve and process the information)I never once even hinted at the fact that mountain biking was a waste of your life or my life, so try to come up with an argument or a quote of something that I actually said next time.


As for the inferiority complex here you might actually have a point, but as I will soon point out it isn't much of a point. As you may or may not have learned in school (that is assuming that you even attend school or have ever attended) that the only thing we can do in science (including psychology because it is a science) is refute things. This is the ABSOLUTE ONE AND ONLY REASON THAT YOU ARE RIGHT. Now what I was talking about when describing inferiority complexes is actually true, even though they might be polar opposites. Both neglect and over parenting are known to cause inferiority complexes, this means that it has been repeatedly proven by multiple different psychologists and since it had yet to be refuted it is accepted as correct. Meaning that you are wrong, just because they are polar opposites it does not mean that they can't have the same effect. I have included some links hoping that you might believe me, and if you will please notice that none of them are Wikipedia,which according to you means that they are correct. I have also taken the time to include the definition (also not from wikipedia) and here it is:
in·fe·ri·or·i·ty com·plex (plural in·fe·ri·or·i·ty com·plex·es)


"noun
Definition:

sense of being inferior: an overdeveloped sense of being inferior to other people. In extreme cases it can manifest itself in either withdrawn or aggressive social behavior."

From MSN Encarta, http://ca.encarta.msn.com/dictionary_1861692442/inferiority_complex.html

http://www.stopdepressiontoday.com/stop-your-inferiority-complex-now.html

http://ca.encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761566845/Alfred_Adler.html#p2

I'm not going to try and debate your math, I agree that
1+1=2
2+2=4
3+3=6
And so on and so on, there is no refuting this as again it has yet to be refuted and therefore is accepted as correct.

Big difference, so what you're 17 instead of 16, it's just too bad that you talk and think like a 7 year old.

And finally,

YOU AREN'T CANADIAN BECAUSE YOU WERE BORN IN CANADA.

YOU ARE CANADIAN BECAUSE YOU LIVE IN CANADA

oh and i would like to correct your math, earlier you said

"100,000 random people out of approx 305 million people or 100,000/305,000,000 which is like .033% of the population"

100,000 divided by 305,000,000 equals out to 3.2786% roughly, so even if you are the most retarded person to ever walk the face of the earth you could never round that to 0.33%

just thought that you should know, but you might want to pay attention to the class (its called math) where you learn how to use a calculator and do long division

you are one hopeless person i give up, its just like the "you're a __________" comeback everything that i prove to be true about you, you turn around and basically saying "you're a_____" so please when you grow up and realize that the world doesn't rotate around the US or YOU get back to me and we will have a civilized discussion just like the rest of the decent world. honestly im sick and tired of trying to prove my point because all that you do is deny it and turn the EXACT SAME argument around on me, honestly you're so narrowminded and pigheaded (which is what i am starting to think all americans are) that you won't get anywhere in your life becuase of it. actually you probably have the most messed up life already, honestly you're arguing against at least TEN other people and guess what their all arguing the same points as me!

you obviously feel the need to feel right, and if i may im gonna breakout some psychology here . You most likely have an inferiority complex, caused by one of many things but most commonly neglect or over attention by parents, so now on the internet you are trying to wage a war against the rest of pinkbike just so that you can feel independant or right so that you can tell yourself that you were right on the internet. I can tell that just from the few little arguments that we've been having over the last while, isn't it amazing what you can tell about a person just from the internet and their writing??? So again I ask you to please get back to me when you can act and think like the 16 year old that you are, and when you feel ready come back and refute my points in the correct manner (not just taking my points and turning them right around on me). By the way an inferiority complex, especially neglect can lead to a hatred for society, and the inability to love as you may have never experienced it. I'd book an appointment with a shrink as soon as I could if I were you.


Again I ask you to please get back to me when you can act and think like the 16 year old that you are, and when you feel ready come back and refute my points in the correct manner (not just taking my points and turning them right around on me)

Sure buddy whatever you'd like to think, if you would like to accuse Canada of something else now feel free to go ahead, maybe make it something big this time though like harboring Nazis or members of the KKK (because don't forget it started in Canada according to you)or maybe even that we are the cause of all the problems of the world; hunger, disease, war....

By the way though, a fact means that it is something that is proven,there is no way to put it so that it sounds better, it is just true.

Also I would like to take the time to thank you for your compliment as you have obviously just complimented me on my arguments in your previous post, showing that subconsciously you know that I am going to win this argument. That is if I haven't already.


If anybody doesn't take the time to check their facts it's actually you.

The other four super powers are China, England, France and Russia.

I'm done with this though, I'm so sick of trying to argue with someone that is completely unwilling to even consider listening to another point of view, especially when it might be right.

I might as well get in on this one, as I'm having so much fun in the "Canada's view of the world" PB picture.


Lightekku, in case you didn't realize it, and you obviously didn't im only saying this to try and make it less hurtful, but Canada is indeed in Iraq. Except we are there on behalf of the UN (United Nations)on a peacekeeping mission, which DOES NOT mean that we are the aggressors, nor are we blowing the shit out of every town that might happen to have one terrorist. The peacekeepers (a Canadian's idea, Lester B Pearson to be exact) are also known as blue helmets (hence why they wear the blue helmets) are not allowed to attack, they may only use force if they are being attacked. Americans on Iraqi soil however went in without the UN's permission, which means that the other four superpowers on the security council voted AGAINST the US invading Iraq. Also US soldiers can basically do anything that they want, kill innocent civilians, politicians and sometimes even terrorists and dogs. It is clear that the US doesn't even know what it is doing, other than maybe terrorizing another country for no reason? Really throwing an innocent dog of a cliff? Does your country feel so powerful and have such a big ego that it feels that it shouldn't answer to anyone? (please click this link to see what I am talking about, http://polidics.com/war/iraq-war/solider-throws-puppy-dog-off-cliff.html).

I would really like to know where you are getting your info, other than the made up data and the incorrect data from Wikipedia. Again please eliminate your opinion, check your facts, and then think before you write anything down.

7000 illegal immigrants from Canada to the US???? Please look at this link http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/21/us/21refugees.html, and realize that people are trying to sneak into your country because it might be better than their current country, but upon arriving are heading straight for Canada because they can't make a life for themselves or are victims of racism. Also the KKK started in Tennessee, which is a part of the United States of America, and has always been doing there business in Canada.


You would have some good arguments, but only if you could back them up like I am doing by using sources other than my opinion and my prejudice of other nations. Again I do not know everything and this almost essay sized argument was not meant to anger you, but more to show you that there is more than your side of things.

Just as a side note though the US owes some 3.4 billion dollars to the UN, even though you may be the most powerful country in the world you are not invincible and still answer to the world.

In reply to your A) point, I would like to point out that your country invaded their's because your military claimed to have evidence that they had weapons of mass destruction (nuke, ICBM....) but once your country had invaded them they found NO evidence of any sort of weapon other than guns. Then the UN weapons inspectors came in to also find NOTHING. If you think that a country that invades another country (think Germany between 1939 and 1945) is not the one responsible for starting the war then I'm sorry to say it (and I really hope this doesn't start another argument, like I actually do) but you are sadly mistaken.

If I have completely misinterpreted what you said previously then I'm sorry, I thought that you were talking about the war in Iraq.


Just as a side note though, I think it should be mentioned that before the war in Iraq your country was fighting right along side mine in an effort to rid Afghanistan of the Taliban. Once your country declared war on Iraq, the US immediately withdrew almost all of its support from Afghanistan, leaving us stranded and quite pissed off. The point is that the US was so intent on winning the war in Iraq, and I would say that they have won as they just had their first democratic election, that they had to abandon their ally and neighbor.

In case you can't read I will quote exactly what I said earlier and add a little on so that maybe this time you can comprehend. 5 posts ago this is what I said

"Since you think you know it all, you should know that it is important to check your facts, and not include opinion in your arguments as it basically shows that you just want to win, but are unable to accept hard facts. If you have any more quarrels with Canadians, Canada, me or even world politics just let me know and I'll be happy to try answer all of your questions, but please keep in mind that I don't know it all."


To reiterate it for you once again, so that maybe I don't have to repeat my self again, I am saying that I DO NOT KNOW IT ALL! NOR DO I THINK THAT I KNOW IT ALL!

And I didn't use Wikipedia, although the fact that you thought that I did most likely indicates that you did.

I'd like to leave you with a question though, how is it that you know that I (specifically) am the single handed reason that Americans hate Canadians? Did you take a poll? Was this poll before or after you tried to indoctrinate them with you prejudice ways? Where is your data? Again please eliminate your opinion from your arguments as it quite simply shows that you know nothing, but have a huge desire to "win" the argument.

OH MY GOD!!!!! DID THE WORLD JUST STOP TURNING OR SOMETHING??????? He's going to make all hunting ammo illegal to acquire?? Really, please get a larger perspective of the world here buddy, YOUR COUNTRY IS ONE OF THE MAJOR CAUSES OF THE PRESENT GLOBAL ECONOMIC RECESSION. Now we get to the part where I will show you why you're wrong and I'm right,and there is no opinion in this, simply facts.

First of all who are you to say that I'm just the average sheltered Canadian that they know everything. Well I have news for you, I'm not sheltered and I DO NOT KNOW everything!!! NO ONE DOES!!! If you can say that I'm just an average sheltered Canadian that thinks that he knows it all, then you should be perfectly fine when I say that you are a redneck, beer loving, gun slinging slightly below average IQ American.

Secondly, I would like to point out that we are not just a colonization of England, we used to be (back in 1867) but no longer have any obligations to England other than a few minor obligations involving the Governor General.

Since you think you know it all, you should know that it is important to check your facts, and not include opinion in your arguments as it basically shows that you just want to win, but are unable to accept hard facts. If you have any more quarrels with Canadians, Canada, me or even world politics just let me know and I'll be happy to try answer all of your questions, but please keep in mind that I don't know it all.

What? I'm an idiot for being right? Are Americans so stuck up that they can't even acknowledge when someone else has saved their asses? Really that wasn't my opinion, those were historical facts. If anything you are the idiot, and if you don't think that Obama is going to make things better then you're twice as stupid as I thought. Honestly I hate to say it but you're fitting into the typical American stereotype of saying and then thinking, is there even any reason that I'm an idiot other than the fact that I'm right and you're wrong?

umm dude vimy rigde, the battle that no one could win, except for the canadians. seriously the french, english and americans tried, and then when the canadians went over the top all of the other guys were like laughing cuz they thought we had no chance at all, and then as you all should know, we cleaned up. And generally it is us that comes around behind you guys (after you do whatever you want in whatever country you are in, because you think that it needs your help) and cleans up, we reestablish the peace, provide essential services, and tend to any medical needs ( you dont always get the bad guys with all the flying lead)
