WHY IT'S SUCH A COOL COUNTRY
|
#1
|
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA |
Hell, what's not cool about this
country?! U.S.A.
ROCKS!! |
|
|
The down side: The beer's kind of
watery in comparison
with other nations, but I'm pretty sure that's only a precaution
against
inflating our sense of self-esteem any further. |
#2
|
REPUBLIC OF CUERVO GOLD |
Okay, here's a tiny island that was bought by
a taquila
company and turned into a nation completely independent of outside laws
of any kind. It was engineered as the ultimate "party nation,"
and
if I'm not mistaken, it's pledge of allegiance was adapted from the
movie
"Animal House." |
|
|
The down side: Not in the U.N. |
#3
|
UNITED KINGDOM |
You can't deny the coolness of a nation that
gave us
Shakespeare and the Rolling Stones. Also, they're not
scared
of Germans. |
|
|
The down side: Kidney pie. |
#4
|
IRELAND |
It looks like a fairy tale land on a
nation-wide scale.
They never got conquered by the Roman Empire (probably because they're
still protected by the goddess Eire). They have druids.
They
probably still have leprechauns somewhere. And the women are
gorgeous
without sacrificing their strength. |
|
|
The down side: Boiled food. |
#5
|
AUSTRALIA |
A bunch of condemned criminals were sent
there to perish
in the harsh wilderness of the outback. Instead, they turned it
into
an entire thriving nation of badasses. |
|
|
The down side: The only time it's on TV
is when
some guy is trying to piss off a crocodile. |
#6
|
EGYPT |
They buried their kings in pyramids and
considered cats
devine. Then, of course, there's that really cool walk. |
|
|
The down side: Pharoh Akhenaten was a
putz. |
