we didn't lose...? we didn't ASK for WW1 or 2 anyway.

06-11-2006, 04:51 PM
here's a little story about WW1&2.

WW1 Germany snuck through Belgium to invade France but Belgium fought the Germans. They lost, but gave France time to prepare. France asked Britain to help even though it wasn't our bisuness, but we helped anyway.

Disadvantages: France was crap at fighting and we had to do everything, Field Marshal Haig is the worst leader ever, Haig had the worst plans, Haig was wasting shells amd money, Russia backed out of the war, nothing really happened.

Advantages: ...

Now WW2 was because Germany wanted it's land back and Hitler was crazy and thought he'd invade everyone. He first snuck through Belgium.

Disadvantages: France didn't think that Germany would do the same thing last time, France fought crap, no-one stood up except UK, UK was by itself.

America was the only alternative because everyone else was ****. (Especially France.)

America is by far one of the worst countries ever. It's the ONLY country to have had a "Great depression". Why is that?

USA wins at everything.
you're a moron.

America is by far one of the worst countries ever. It's the ONLY country to have had a "Great depression". Why is that?That is one of the most ignorant statements ever made. What was Germany going through before the start of World War II? Oh right... a depression... but you're 14 and know everything, right?

and The Netherlands had a pretty good chance i think.
Portugal has a good chance too. they are the eurocup winners.
and Brazil, they wil be in the finals.

For christ's sake! Nobody ELSE, other than you 'missed my joke'. Prehaps you're just TOO ADULT to understand, and all my little kiddie peers only understand me, because i'm SOO immature, and the things i say go UNDER your head.

"I only put the teams people like."

Do you seriously believe that by putting this, and only having 10 teams, the other teams in the world cup don't have a single fan? Not even themselves? I've you're going to be ****ing literal about what i say, i'll do so for what you say too! Of course i was being sarcastic. It's like saying "everyone hates america" is it true? no. It's just a quick dig at the less popular teams on a whim, that's all. No need to flame me for it.

First, you're an idiot for missing sarcasm. Second, i very seldom say stupid or ignorant things (hah!), and i'm afraid i can't remember a single occasion where i've said "OH I WAS JOKING LOL KK ^_^" to cover myself. Please. Point one out... Stupid misconseptions don't ****ing count, ok? Saying "i've got like a million frags on BF2" isn't ****ing literal. As was "i've only put the teams people care about".

Dude, you're missing the point. You're trying to justify putting only the teams that people care about. But the poll is asking what team we think will win. There's no connection between what team we care about and what team we think will win. The better option would to have put the top 9 teams, and then for the 10th option, put other. What teams we care about/like/are our favourites are irrelavant. Nobody else had a stab at you for this because either they didn't notice the difference or they didn't care, not that they picked up on your apparently obvious sarcasm.
