    How is the American War for Independance taught in the UK?

    I guess thats because it's still not a finished history, heck Bombs and killings are still happening quite often in NI. I know in Uni's the Irish revolution is still highly debated upon and a lot of facts are missing. Also all these different Irish factions could probably be very confusing to...

    How is the American War for Independance taught in the UK?

    While you raise a good point with the if South went to fight against the North, The problem is the naming. The Thirteen colonies were exactly what they called themselves colonies, not British land, (theres a lot of old law about the difference), The colonies were semi-independant, and had no say...

    What do people think of modern britsh comedies

    The only britcom I follow since the likes of black books, spaced, and League of gentlemen were about is The IT crowd. Most modern britcoms just seem to take normal stuff and label it as funny or overblow what is actually quite normal and try to shove it in your face too much. Though Peep show...

    Halo: the movie

    I love how people just insult Halo by calling it generic. Yes it's "generic" because it was the first real modern 3D FPS that was good and sold. Therefore most generic FPS games are based on Halo. It being generic is due to how good Halo was, and is a really bad go at insulting halo. The...

    Characters dying at the end of books.

    Try reading the Soldier Son Trilogy.. that ending will really mess up the perception of your question. Or Cain who's too smart and cowardly to die.

    I think I might be losing my grip on my sanity.

    To teach them how to respect and use that freedom well. While punishment is an answer i agree it's not the best.. prevention is usually better than the cure. And why would someone who uses that freedom well be punished? If 4chan started to get restrictions on it's boards to remove the "bad"...

    I think I might be losing my grip on my sanity.

    This was an obvious case of both social services and the justice system failing with a bucket of super fail. And to support OP's comment of people having too much freedom makes them act like twats.. well just take a gander at 4chan /b/ specifically and tell me that those "free to act as they...

    Movies/games you won't admit happened (AKA there's only one Matrix movie)

    I can't believe anyone ever came up with a new version after classical physics to explain how atoms work on the small side as there is nothing smaller than them ( yes i am currently studying quantum mechanics and i hate it with a passion). More to the idea of staying OT: wouldn't it just be...

    Sanity restored in UK

    All though everyone with enough intelligance knows IQ's do not actually measure intelligance (or anything for that matter. The creater admitted he made up results on his deathbed). Though if everyone was a bassist I'd trust the general populace more... or bassist less.. could go either way.

    The gauntlet's been thrown, choose your weapon!

    Depends on the "duelling field" .... Pole axe for open areas... Trench knife (a spiked duster of course) for the confined areas.
