Finally worked it out

Those of you who know me (or have followed my spouting on this site) will probably know that I have little time for the average American. When asked why, I sometimes struggle to come up with more than the obvious reasons. They’re too loud, they’re stupid, they can’t go to war (and why go in the first place?) without inflicting casulaties on their allies. But in a rare epiphany, I have finally figured it out. The root causes of my downer on the nation. There are 2, although they are related.

1) Why do you keep telling us and yourselves that you are the best country in the world? 80% of Americans do not own a passport, so what are they basing this claim on having never left their shores?

and, more importantly

2) If someone at work comes in everyday and says, “I am the best. I am better than all of you at everything. I’m richer than you, I run my life in a manner that you aspire to, I am just the mutts nuts!” How BLOODY ANNOYING would that be? This is what the American nation does to the rest of the world. What would be the odds of the person saying this at work surviving the week without a good smack in the face? Pretty damn low I should think.

And this my loyal reader, is the the crux of my dislike.
