A Very, Very Quick Question...

[Mad Maniac with axe-firing chainsaw]

British. Scottish to be precise.

I think I'd say Scottish first, unless someone pointed out the obvious.

I'm sorry, I'd rather be thought of as a Wallace than a Cromwell.

Our William Wallace was no saint either. His actions in the north of England do not cast a friendly eye on Scotlands history, he was feared for his raiding. He was a man of his time really. I don't deny his bravery, but equally I'm not quite sure I'd describe him as a hero.

This is the OPPOSITE of a quick question, seeing as it can be debated and would require every single person's input to fully answer.

For future reference "a quick questions" might be "how many feet are in a mile?" And then just do a google search.

On topic, I was born in Belarus but for all practical purposes, am American.

and that isn't a quick answer either. so, in your face!.

...

It took me 10 second to open a new tab, type in "feet in a mile", press enter, and see the answer in huge 30 size font. If that's not quick enough for you, you must be especially slow.

ohhh look at you, trying to first prove a point for no reason and then try to insult someone over the internet.

I'm glad you feel superior, go you.

Would you call him a bad ass ************?

Because I don't know many Brits that I can label as such, no offense. Possibly Winston Churchill, because of what he said to that woman.

There already is a thread like this -_- Man look at me... 700 posts in and I got used to saying this :S

Anyways, Russian_Assassin, from Russia without love. Seriously, we hate you! Just kidding! Or am I?

English woop! Do any American users of the escapist find the English vibe to their liking?

Just wondering..

Really? Gorbachav gave me the opposite feeling... like he wanted to almost be U.S. with all that perestrioka and glasnost stuff.

Reminds me of one of my favorite Putin jokes. "So Perestroika and Glasnost walk into a bar and die from Polonium 210 poisoning."

I'm an American, but I do love Russians though, and Russia and it's history in general. Probably stems from the fact that my great grandparents emigrated from Russia to Canada and then to America, so it's a relatively recent split that my family has had with Russia. The fact that my great great grandfather died during the October Revolution. He got hit with an axe in the back because he was a game warden for Czar Nicholas II, rode his horse all the way home before he finally collapsed. Another fun fact, my great great grandmothers sister went to Canada with her, didn't like the country and went back to Russia. She and her husband were detained at the docks when they arrived, taken to a field, shot, and buried in a shallow grave because they were traitors. Still, we've got quite a bit of history in Russia, and I'd really love to visit, especially Lake Baikal. Trying to learn the language, but the difference between the Latin alphabet and the Cyrillic alphabet is a little hard to get used to.

Your very right there dude. I must admit it's quite odd to see a scot (at least from my experience) admit that Wallace was nothing other than a Saint who was shat upon by the English (although in fairness he was shat upon but was still no saint).
