Arrenn Lightblade had this to say about dark elf butts:
...uhm..what sand, buddy? You mean the sand by the beach? Texas is not known for its rolling deserts :P
Texas has:
-Real men
-Lovely Ladies
-Kick Ass BBQ
-Mexican Food like nowhere else
-Big cities. Texans dont live in their unspoiled wilderness.
-Warm winters
-Hot summers
In the end, I beleive we would all agreed that Sweden is pwned.
Real men? Depends on your definition of real men. Nothing really special about Texan men, other than a certain streak towards violence, beer and farting. Wait, that's every man on the planet. 
Lovely ladies? Look at the various sigpics. 
Yeah, we have a BBQ culture here too.
Mexican food? I have a mexican, a chinese, a portugese and an indian restaurant in the same block as me. It's the same as the Texan.
Big cities as well, only we ALSO have unspoiled wilderness, even bordering on the cities. It's a ten minute drive from my home in Stockholm's core to a forested island with deep, warm cliff lakes.
Varied climate pwns warm climate.
Sorry, Texas has nothing on Sweden.

No, not really. We get thunderstorms here too. But we don't have to rebuild our homes or worry about our loved ones just because a tornado happened by.

5 weeks total, but I'll never fill it up that much Schools get ~20 too.

We wipe our asses with fifty dollar bills and give them to Texans to buy beer with.
- In Sweden, it's illegal to broadcast commercials during a program. You may only show them inbetween.

You dont get Superbowl commericals? Dude.. that sucks 
Very minor downside, compared to a very huge upside.
But maybe you Americans need toilet breaks every five minutes.

Actually... how ever much I will bitch about commericals in the middle of shows. It is actually a good thing because most of the time they are building suspense 
That's just overkill.

Between shows if you're just watching TV.
They usually have a five-minute break in the middle of movies, veiling with it some kind of "preview".
Which suits the purpose.

Enforcer Za'Yth had this to say about John Romero:
Oh come on. I get programs like Jay Leno over here. The little "And we'll be back right after the messages!" appears six times in flipping half an hour.That's just overkill.
- At the hour
- 15 minutes after
- At the half hour
- 15 minutes til
Some shows do 2 smaller commerical breaks in a 1/2 hour.. but for the most part the above is what you see. Leno is an exception because of the show layout.
Seems to be the norm from what I've seen, but I guess you'd know.
Still - not having Seven interrupted by "Whenever we don't buy Baby-Boom-Happy-Diapers, little Bob just gets so whiny!" more than once (instead of eight times) is nice in my book. [ 06-13-2002: Message edited by: Enforcer Za'Yth ]

Actually.. I'm not really sure WHY talkshows like to do that. But for some reason they like to cut to commercials after the opening act, then the little goof off thing before the first guest, then after each guest, then twice for the band... I'll never understand it. Maybe they just dont have that much to talk about
Just because.

Sweden has a nice sum of beauties, but the other part of thier numbers are also infected with half naturals or plastics. Not to mention the sex changers, and visiting beauties for their operations.
Also texas is the only state in the country where you can visit every type of vacation location. From skiing in the mountains to sizzling on the beach. Texas has more unspoiled natural escapes than anyplace else aside from Africa and South America which are countries as a whole.
Texans can be brutal, but are also the most honery and stubborn allies you could ever have. Also the closest nit group. Texans are Texans. Probably one of the nicest states in the south as long as you are good to them. Cross em, and thats another matter...
Texas is one of the more lenient states on most things, but harshest when it comes to punishment when you screw up. We are also the most common state to take a stance on the hard side. They are a roughed breed, and rarely bested

*cough*
USA has a much larger plastic surgery business than Sweden.
As for loyal and trustworthy - I don't think loyal and trustworthy people come from any specific place, myself. Kids aren't raised in any real special way in Texas. Some might be, but generally those variances are very small, and shifty.
Of course there's certain populace differences due to culture, but there's most assuredly a about as large percentage of assholes in Texas as in Sweden. Scammers in Texas as in Sweden. Trustworthy, honest workers in Texas as in Sweden.
You can compare the climate, or the culture, or the state, but it's really hard to say "The people in my place are more trustworthy than the people in your place.", especially since one is biased against the place where the majority of one's close friends and loved ones come from.
...
Okay, I lied.

And Texas isn't a country, it's state. And Sweden is the Plastic Surgery capital of the world, seconded by L.A. The dominate the sex change market though.

Then again, whereever there's models, there's plastic surgery. Where they do it isn't really the point, it's where they display it.
I don't take anything in this thread seriously, it's all in good jest. At least I think.
