What's the makeup of this board--mostly yanks, Canadians, Brits, Kiwis, Aussies, Irish, or (gasp) Scots?

EDIT: I'm from the U.S. (in case you couldn't tell), and I forgot South Africa and "Other." Sorry Embarassed

U.S. and A.? Uh, it's U.S. of A. or just U.S.A., the United States of Animals! LOL Some people like to call it the D. S. A. , the Divided States of America. Serious, it is the Dived States of America and always was since the orginal 13 colonies. Democracy is about arguing and voting and trying to make a fortune to raise your family on with differing values from your neighbors.

Where did you go to school, Jizzo? Sue them.

People from Northern Ireland are also excluded, because you've an option for Britain, but really, your option for 영국 should be 'UK' - the full name being 'the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland'. This means that 'Great Britain' = England, Scotland and Wales....whilst 'UK' = England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Ok, ok,...Damn! I meant England or Scotland. And if you don't know why I said U.S. and A. then you haven't seen Borat. So for all practical purposes, if you are from ENGLAND then "humour" me and "tick" Britain please!

That's the last time I post a poll when I'm drunk.

Those would've fallen under "other." Are you Welsh?
