AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the multinational nature of a forum and the desire to gauge its demographic by country. A user suggests creating a poll for members to indicate their country of origin, acknowledging the limitations of having only ten options. The conversation touches on the expected dominance of US participants, with humorous exchanges about the categorization of countries, particularly regarding the UK and Europe. Participants express frustration over the poll's constraints, noting the absence of many countries, including India and Australia, and engage in light-hearted banter about cultural stereotypes and national identities. The thread highlights the forum's diverse membership while playfully addressing the challenges of accurately representing that diversity in a poll format.

Bumped because I refuse to accept there are no Australians on this forum :smile:

Africa maybe not, but Australia?

The UK got it's own listing. And what are they known for? Bland food and bad weather.

You forgot bad teeth.

Right. Damn Maritimers... you have other seasons out there.

Now then, why haven't Scorpa and ShawnD chirped up yet? I know that there are a lot more of us out there.

Yes bad teeth? Odd one this but a reality obviously? :biggrin:

Characteristics we are known for.

Famous for being able to mock ourselves, in fact we are renowned for it and our humour is almost entirely based on it.

Famous for losing our sense of patriotism to common sense. Nationalism is akin to a swear word, we detest it.

Famous for loving banter, Our teeth are long enough and misshapen enough to bite through our stiff upper lip :smile:

Anyway this nonsense but fun stuff aside why aren't the Aussies voting then? I love Aussies, they have a love of banter and sarcasm second to none but the Canadians?

Danger Canadian humour is so good that if I ever left England your country would be my first port of call. :smile:

Kids in The Hall:



We only get Montreal comedy festival these days, it's sad because we get every US comedy show going but not yours? Don't get me wrong US comedy is great but I'd like to see more from you guys too.

Are we talking about Candian humor? Oh boy! Bulbous Bouffant!

Thanks love it. Any more? Absurd humour is perhaps something we share.

Mukluks? Morlocks?

Ya, I want to know if that van was photoshopped or someone really drives around with a "Psychos in Transit" van. That's great!
