    You understand that threads can have tangents right? Like you aren't that stupid are you?

        The topic of any thread that Starlight posts in is whatever Starlight is currently posting about. How is that not obvious?

          A bit of an over simplification since the educated ones have heard of Florida and know that you can find Disneyworld and gators there.


          I'm sorry, but I really don't think Americans have a leg to stand on when it comes to comparing ignorance about the outside world with pretty much anyone else.

                It does. At least those that live in the country. All rednecks live in mansions, wear beards, and drive around in hummers and ATVs carrying shotguns.

But the OP was about chanting USA at local sporting events which is an insane thing to do and equivalent to as you put it "walk[ing] around the town chanting USA! for no reason".

                  I've seen plenty of video footage of Americans chanting USA at times and places that weren't sporting events. I found it inappropriate, bizarre, and felt embarrassed for them.
                  I found a video of you being triggered by people chanting USA.

                    The point is, Starlight, you didn't even realize until the last page that this WAS about chanting USA at sporting events. We point out how clueless you are and you try to cover it up after admitting it?

                      That really reminds me of a Chris Farley skit!

                        Ironic coming from someone who didn't even know what the subject of the thread was and actually thought he was on topic rather than going off on a tangent

                        I'm always still in trouble again
