England run out of rope?

Too late. I bet they already bred.

Sure. Call it what you will, Commonwealth, Union, Liars' Club, whatever. Hate to admit it, but the Brits made it possible with their colonialism. Eventually South America will do the same, though the language difference with Brazil will make it tough.

Close alliance for sure, but we already have that. Distances might be too much for a single country, but if we bail on the UN, I can see the possibility of a union of English-speaking states, kinda like the EU.

The North American Union has been predicted for decades. U.S./Canada is the obvious start. Similar origin, similar history, similar government, same language. The language problem will be a thing with Mexico, but less now than ever before. 80% of the internet is in English, which will have...

Understood, but Mexico's the important one. After we get that together, we'll have everything down to Colombia in a couple of weeks. The Caribbean soon after. Probably the hardest part will be the British VI.

OK, the next step. . . can we rope in Mexico and bring it up to our standard (admittedly we're far from perfect, but economically and organizationally we're way ahead of Mexico). Or is that too big an ask?

Speed the day.

Best of luck figuring out how the reply and quote functions work. It's really quite simple, but then again, so are you.

More than you.

Yes, of course. You know everything. Comprehensively. Anybody who doubts that can just ask you.

Forbes says that Trump would be in approximately the same position he's currently in if he had handed over his inheritance to a reputable broker and pursued a career as a crayon artist. I'm aware you will conclude from this that Forbes doesn't know what it's talking about, but that's because...

Link Its rounded up but close enough. A micro meter is SFA. I know both systems inside out and backwards. A 20oz US pint sounds like a better deal than a 16oz IMP pint but pint glasses in Canada are 500ml rather than 473ml in 16/20oz pint glass.

Zelensky's a good man. Always approved of him. You and he are pretty much the defining points on the Ukrainian bell curve.

Like when you say "I got ten for you here, baby," you're talking centimetres (millimetres?), not inches?

Getting to the point where it's kinda hard to hear the intelligent input through the background noise. One of the reasons I started my "Trump Did Something Good" thread. I despise the stupid prick. But even stupid pricks can do good things (if only by accident), and they should be encouraged...

Another "something good" Trump is doing. . . gutting DEI and affirmative action. I'm still not entirely sure what "DEI" is, except that conservatives hate the idea of people who aren't White, nominally-Christian, and male having an even shot, but affirmative action, already weakened by decades...

You have six-inch pizzas in Canaduh? Smallest I've seen in the U.S. is eight-inch (square). Have fun being stupid.

Nope, you played your games. Again. There are a number of definitions for "liberty," and you chose the one that would let you be a pissy little one-upper, and now you're insisting it's the only one. You bore me. Go smoke a joint.

Aw. Poor babies. Hey, maybe y'all could pass a law making it a crime to say something that hurts somebody's feewings! Call it a "hate crime" or some such butthurt-soother.
