Well I'm off to Florida in a week to see my sexy Fiancee ! Been a long time coming but I'll finally be there for her birthday. Plan on spoiling her. ;-)
I've been over there a number of times now and its a great place, but something really gets my back up - particularly lately. Young American guys - are they naturally the biggest pricks on the planet or does it take a lot of practise ? Or maybe they just get all their history and outlook on the world from Hollywood. Now thats probably got a few people thinking that was a bit nasty, but when I say that, I don't mean everyone, just what seems to be the majority.
Now with the exception of Juls' family, I haven't really met too many young guys over there in person, but I've met countless numbers of em over XBox Live (online gaming community for anyone who doesn't know). Most of the time they either think they're black when they're obviously white, or they get this idea that they're some kind of god because they play a particular game all day and shoot a few people - which then gives them this idea to constantly trash talk at people and act like ignorant dicks.
Lets go over a few things guys YOU'RE FUCKING WHITE ! LOOK IN THE MIRROR ! You're not 50 Cent no matter how much you practise the talk. And sorry to say, but no matter how much of a shithole you try to make your room look, most of of you don't come from the ghetto - no amount of duck tape around your plugs and wearing pants around your knees will change that ! Live with it !
Scary thing is, although there are plenty of squeaky voiced cocky kids around that do plenty for the pro spanking arguement, most of the stupid bastards that have these severe problems seem to be around my age ! There really isn't much worse of an experience then some trash talking American nerd on confidence pills because he feels safe behind his TV and XBox Live headset. You just know that most of these guys wouldn't say this kinda shit on the street because people would kick their head in. Its people like them that underline why a lot of countries hate Americans. Ironically, American girls seem the complete opposite and most of the time are really nice and interesting to talk to (with the odd exceptions that me and Juls' encounter - not naming any names).
These guys would actually be really funny with their ignorance and obnoxious need to be heard if it wasn't replaced by the scary reality that they actually believe the bullshit they spout at you. Again, this isn't meaning every young American guy out there is a complete ass, I've met some really cool people in the States and a few guys have even been quick to jump into arguements with their views of the prats that do nothing but bitch at people.
Its just a real shame that a country gets labelled with a reputation due to a number of fucktards that obviously didn't aquire any kinds of social skills or any grasp of the English language through their life. Of course plenty will say "well thats really just a stupid game thing", but then they seem to get their views accross in plenty of other ways too.
Of course this negative stuff spreads through Britain and Europe too. But to me at least theres a difference in that the countries have knowledge of eachother and it all stems through a long history. Whereas with a number of Americans, it stems from either pure ignorance ("Are you Austrailian ?") or some desperation to cling to old roots ("Hey ! Its says here that our surname is Irish ! That means we have to hate the English ! Lets see, we hate them cuz of the po-ta-to famine..... Hmmmmmmmmm, the fuck is that ?? oh well, its an excuse !")
Thing is, in my view, America is a great country and I wouldn't swap Juls for any girl in the world and theres plenty to admire and respect in what America has achieved. Its just that some people need a good shooting for the good of the country - come on people, you have the gun laws - use em ! ;-)
Anyway, I'm off to drink tea, play cricket and then I might chat to the Queen for awhile - cause all us English "fags" know eachother.
