I get quite pissy with all the casual anti-American cliches I encounter this side of the pond.
The whole "Americans, eh?" bullshit, like we're better somehow.

Alt: Was introduced at a young age to Escher's work, which in equal parts fascinated and terrified me.

Altalt: banaaarna!

We *are* better.

I also get fed up with similar bullshit from the Scottish nationalists.
I'm all for a ruck, but not when it's founded in bitterness and whining.

Racism is a convenient ruse to deflect people who know no better from the real issues
In Scotland's case it's because Salmond is a power-hungry bastard.

Give them ten years of independence and they'll be voting for reunion again.
Anybody with any sense in either Wales or Scotland can see they don't have the capacity to be anything other than dead weights to the EU.

I'm amazed the Tories haven't gone for it
Cut a load of Labour seats out of Parliament for the loss of one of theirs, surely would give them a much better chance at the next election?

I don't give a shit what they do, to be honest.
I'm more concerned over what the hell the flag will look like without the Scottish saltire in it.

Essentially it will become the international symbol for dithering indecision.

Also, won't every country that has a Union Jack as part of their flag need to change it too?
e.g. Australia, etc?

That'd be up to them
but as the canton represents their history as ex colonies, they might choose to keep it based on that being the flag at the time of their independence.

I like it when the EDL types say "You're being racist against Tommy*....."
I have a very witty reply "How can anyone be racist against Tommy? Tommy isn't even a race, it's a facist idioloigy".


* the leader of the EDL

Americans don't do an incredibly good job at not appearing to be idiots though.
