Aw, Canada ain't that bad. I mean sure we Americans will joke about them being "the 51st state", but they're nice neighbors. They don't go around causing trouble and they're very good friends. Plus they make up a huge percentage of trade with the US. So high five Canada!
As for the Welsh, that's what you get England for taking them over and controlling them for all those years. Same with Ireland and Scotland. You want a United Kingdom, you're gonna have to put up with the rest of the bunch.

Not to mention Gimli ...Wuvlycuddles said:I was born in Wales and this strip receives my seal of approval.
Just a warning though, Batman and Hannibal Lecter were both born in Wales... (well the actors were) Do you really wanna piss those two off?
Although i'd be awesome to see them team up!
Brilliant strip!! Thank ye gods for the River Dee, says I!! - (also the Mersey, but we're ragging on the Welsh today, not the scousers...!)
Don't worry.... we don't think any less of you for admitting that...! ;O)Scarim Coral said:
Hopefully non-inflammatory opinions below.
Wales has a better anthem than England (sorry, Mae Hen Wlad fy Nhadau is just loads cooler than God Save the Queen). Much like Canada has a much better one than the US (or the rest of the whole world, come to that).
Wales also has a second language with heavy government subsidies which definitely sounds neater than English (pats the nearby "Teach Yourself Welsh" book), which partially corresponds to Canada (though whether English or French-Canadian sound better is definitely a matter of taste).
However, Welsh football definitely isn't as good as English (sorry, Ryan Giggs). While Canadian football blows away the American variety in every way imaginable.

I think you're getting Wales mixed up with Scotland. It's true that Wales has it's own Parliament, however, they have pretty much the same rules and laws as England and indeed seem to be nothing more than a few extra counties, united under the banner of 'Wales'. Fine, in North Wales they tend to be slightly Anglophobic and speak the native language more, and so on, but mostly Wales is pretty friendly towards England (that whole 'rivalry' thing is mainly stereotype, unless it's sports-related in which case it becomes deadly serious). And I should know, I live in England yet have spent a lot of time in Wales for various reasons.crotalidian said:
And I have no idea where you get this idea that we see none of the taxes from Wales, because we do, it all gets paid to the same government. No, Scotland are the ones who really take advantage and effectively govern themselves. They have completely different systems for everything, especially education, and it's them who take money from us without giving us anything in return. Personally, I'd be happy for Scotland to either rejoin the UK proper and pay taxes to London, and disband their own Parliament, or just secede completely and become their own country (like Ireland) and have their own economy instead of sponging off us. Of course, that's hardly likely to happen though, is it...?
As for the comic, it was pretty good, and interesting to get even a tiny glimpse of Erin's backstory (Canadian, you say? Oh dear...
). And anything with English characters is automatically made awesome, because England is the best country in the world!!!!!
Actually, I believe the title is "The Dragon Shit." It is a play on Y Ddraig Coch, which means "The Red Dragon" (i.e. the symbol on Wales's flag.)TheGuy(wantstobe) said:Nice use of getting crap past the censors. For those who don't know any welsh cach is shit and haliwr is wanker
