Did you summon all of those from memory? I am impressed!Scde2 said:
Also, sad to be wrong, damn it all. But seriously, as large players in the west we were quite early to the democracy game. You know, defying Spain and the church and everything. Also, is it really like that in the US? I hear the stories of almost revering ignorance, but I don't know to believe them.
EDIT: Also, of all these republics, we are the only one to still exist!
How so? When I think of Brazilians online I think of the people you get on bands' facebook pages all the timemateushac said:

on threads about something completely unrelated
Australia, specifically Western Australia
Fun little history fact I know, after the Skylab space station re-entered Earth's atmosphere in the late 70's debris landed in the south of Western Australia. The town of Esperance, who got most of the wreckage, proceeded to fine NASA $400 for littering. It was a light hearted joke, poking fun at the fact that NASA had assured everyone that all of the station would burn up and there was no risk.
The fine went unpaid and ignored for 30 years until a DJ in California heard about the story and raised the funds from donations from his listeners to pay the fine on NASA's behalf.

No idea why they think they do
Although the things they do moan about are hilarious. Like horse meat. And worrying that they might be dangerous to eat. Brilliant

I'm not much of a gamer. Actually I'm not completely sure why I use this site.
Explain?
Dunno. I came for ZP like most people do, then started hanging around the off topic forum for both the interesting threads and to reply to the infuriating comments you see all the time, cos for some reason I like to piss myself off.4RM3D said:F2P MMO = Free To Play Mass Multiplayer Online (Game)AnarchistFish said:

Explain?I am curious.
