Hope this hasnt been done before!
Been a fan club member a whole week now. Thought Id give starting a new thread a crack

This is the game...Lets Find out beyond any doubt which is the BEST Country. Each Post lists something brilliant about, or something or someone, that has come from the USA or Australia...BUT...the catch is that Australians have to say something great from America, and obviously Americans have to come up with something great from Australia...see this is also an attempt to improve international relations!!! In case this doesnt make sense, here is an example...I go first and list Napoleon Dynamite (coolest dude of all time!)...hes American, I am Aussie...Aussies are now winning One to NIL

New Zealanders, sorry you cant play...I mean once we have said Wal Footrot and Tim Finn...theres really nothing else...plus relations between our countries are way beyond repair now anywaY

i am going to keep score...and not everything automatically scores...I mean if some uneducated moron from Australia was to write George W Bush...of course I couldnt count that! Anyway Americans, you are currently losing, so away you go!!!

    CONGRATULATIONS Green Mountain Man...and as the first to reply to my stream, you have scored a bonus point for your country...so America leads 2 to 1

    And of course Elle does score...despite the fact that she has lived most of her life outside our great land...and some questionable attempts at acting...oh and she did host some really bad show about wannabe models...but nonetheless, score she does...a beautiful creature, both inside and out!!!

    dear dimitris,
    I just have one or two minor issues to address with you about your most welcome comment

    1. You are not actually from America or australia so technically u are not actually eligible to play and
    2. That suggestion of Pearl Jam would actually score a point for Australia, not cause them to loose the game

    HOWEVER...due to your contribution, and the fact you are the creator of the now famous piece of literature...why now u dont bitching I think it is...the gaming committee has deemed that you should be allowed to do whatever the hell you want...SO...you score...for GREECE

    Official score; America 2, Australia 1, GREECE 1

    Your right it is Elle.
    Her real name is Eleanor Gow. I can see why she changed it

    I give you no points for the sequels though. And Mel Gibson in general is probably a 2 point deduction.

    Score Update:

    OK OK OK, slow down a bit America...damn you guys are competitive...or is it just that world domination thing going on again...anyway most of Australia has been sleeping, so lets see if we can catch up a bit...

    Satansfuton: you are very correct in your assessment...unfortunately any points Mel Gibson may have scored for good stuff...Mad Max, Braveheart, arguably Lethal Weapon...he has well and truely countered with things I shall not mention on this site...PLUS, I am very pleased to say...he was actually born in America, and yes we have officially disowned him!!!

    I like the crocodile theme...and in case you are wondering...yes it is true that most Aussies have one or two of them as pets

    Anyway: America 4, Australia 1, Greece 2(bonus point because Dimitris the Greek God wrote something nice about this thread)

    OK, so as Mel Gibson is known as Australian, but was actually born in America, how do the two deduction points get distributed?

    Well, if you're going to pawn Mel Gibson off on us, then you also have to give us Nicole Kidman (born in Hawaii), give AC/DC to Scotland, and probably some more. Best you just keep Mel.

    I think New Zealand wins the game. Clearly Australians are jealous of you for Lord Of The Rings and no country has ever had anything as great as Flight Of The Conchords...

    Let's cut through all the anti-American and anti-New Zealand bullshit from the Aussies and crown the winner.
