Dearst this word is spelt dearEst matty,
At least I've been to your UK and I happen to love the UK. You have never been to N America and spout you vile the word you want is "bile" against the USA out of your complete and total pig-ignorance.


I have been to San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and Dallas mand I can honestly say that I like America but cannot stand Americans.

My special friend Matty,
America is it's people. Really, you expect me to believe you have been to those cities with all your pig-ignorant remarks about America? Thanks for all the spelling corrections. I think you should be more concerned about your bacterial puffs than my spelling, but whatever puts the bubbles in your cauldron.
I think the word you want is AND. "...mand I can honestly say..."  Too funny you!

I can't stand some Americans and some American ideals that some Americans have. But I grew up around Americans because of my mum's work, and the majority I knew/know are kindly, thoughtful and without a doubt among the most generous people I've ever encountered.

And one of my kids has an American best friend, and she's a lovely person to be around.

Oh, I don't doubt that there are some Americans who a thoroughly decent people. However, when in a large group and on home territory . . .

My time in the States was during the Vietnam war, and I was there with a show from Sydney after we received an invitation as a "Thank You" for our contribution to the R and R effort in Sydney. The thing that irritated the Aussies and the Kiwis in our party was the Americans pointblank refusal to accept that America and Americans were not Numero Uno in absolutely eveyrthing and would argue all night with anyone who disgreed.

I remember going out to dinner with a bunch of Americans and spending the entire evening trying to explain to one of them that England is a country and not the equivalent to a U.S. state.  ;D

I think the States was a different place before and during Vietnam - they've learned a lot, including how much they are hated by many. But then Americans are taught in school to love and respect their country, which doesn't happen much here.

True.

The other thing that really riled the Aussies in particular, was that, while being entertained by Aussie volunteers, they would state y=thet they could not wait to get back to "the real world" - the US. When expressed during parties on boats in Sydney harbour this resulted in more than a few Americans swimming home.

Dearest Matty,
Some guest you were. They send you and invitation and you go there and tell them that they are not number one? Ya, right. Actually they were correct but now China has emerged. Do you like the Chinese? How about the Cubans? You like the countries but not the people? There is a word for people like you.
