British Delusions About WW2!
They still claim to speak English, and it's the one day of the year they put the day before the month, like us English do. Admit it, Septics, you want us to take you back!
|
Admit it FR, you're jealous. And no - we're not going back, ever.
|
I live in a country that has a recorded history going back 2000 years, a pre-history that is contemporary with the Egyptians. Our language is the most widely spoken in the world, and the sun never sets on the Commonwealth. Who cares that a bunch of badly dressed Yanky-doodle-upstarts had their revolution? You still turn to us whenever you need help! Jealous? No. How's the hangover? :)
|
Your flag would've looked very different after WWII if it wasn't for our help.
By the way, originally I was kidding... but I will admit you're right about one thing, jealous was the wrong word for me to use. |
Your help? Don't make me fucking laugh! The Eagles wrote a song about you lot! By the time you lot joined in, us and the commies already had Hitler in a pincer between Stalingrad and Africa. You lot just provided cannon fodder.
|
You two would be perfect as 'poster boys' for Anglo-American cooperation and support...ohhh...now you guys are making me cry with joy...dammit all! I love you guys! ;)
|
I feel a bit ill.
|
If America had just fought Japan and stayed isolationist with Europe, your lot would've been hoisting up flags with swastikas and learning how to speak German.
And don't get me wrong, I love dear England. Again, 'jealous' was the wrong word for me to use, it should've been 'grateful'... yet I can't help but think of a word that begins with 'A'. |

Some fucking gratitude we get for that, eh? Burning sheep and fucking up peoples holidays is all those stinky garlic munchers are good for! No wonder McBatfink fucked off to Australia, he must have been distraught in 1972!

Oh, and Somedude, check your fucking history book. Alamein was won by Kiwi troops, not British.
|
Wrong again Rotter. The Second (and final) Battle of El Alamein was won by the British, led by Lieutenant-General Bernard Montgomery when he took command of the British Eighth Army in August of 1942. Not sure which fucking history book you're reading from but you should verify your facts before posting.
|
The troops fighting at Alamein under the command of Monty, were from New Zealand. Although the Desert Rats, and the British 8th Army at large, went on to win glory in North Africa, it was a brigade of artillery from New Zealand that narrowly escaped being wiped out and turned Rommels flanks at Al Alamein.
Regarding which flag we might be flying today. The debt owed by Britain to other nations during the Second World War often goes unrecognised. In particular, we have the commies to thank for turning Adolfs attention their way. Apart from a few volunteers, Septics took no part at all in the Battle of Britain, which ended on the commencement of operation Barbarosa. If anyone "saved our asses" in WWII, it wasn't Septics. It was the Canuck and Polish that fought alongside our RAF BOYS during the Battle of Britain. Hitler was a spent force when you lot joined in. |

I spun this debate into its own thread in Idle Talk so the 4th of July Thread isn't a debate over points of history.
|
Of course, if it helps to massage your Yankee Doodle egos, you won both world wars single handed. After all, it's a well known fact you're generally shit at fighting over seas, so we ought to let you have that one, in the sake of fairness and all that, eh? ;)
