I'm not sure if this topic has been covered before, but I've been a watcher of the forums for a while, especially since I use this site as a resource so much... and it seems to be very multicultural :) I almost wish I wasn't stuck in boring old Canada, as I can only speak the one language... always wished I could speak even, like, French.
|
I remember such a topic
http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index...opic=2065&st=0 But I'll say it again. I'm from Holland! |
Iceland.
I speak Icelandic, English and Danish quite fluently, am also studying french and german. And ancient nordic / icelandic. BTW, Canada rocks!!!! |
I am from Canada Eh! Nothing wrong with Canada! How is it boring? Well then again I live right beside Toronto so that might be the reason why :bleh:
|
Im from the boring country of uk
|
Nebraska U.S. here, right in the middle of the country.... you know we have a cost guard installation here? I thnk were guarding against people in Iowa.... damn Iowans
|
Okay, I'm an American (Californian, if you're interested). But don't tell anyone. I wouldn't want it getting out that I live among the imperialist pig-dogs.
|

Good ol' Belgica. Well... make that ol' Belgica.

I am from Canada. A small town of about 400 people: Forteau. It is in the middle of nowhere, and it is usually freezing: we gets lots of blizzards.

You live right by Gelsenkirschen, isn't that really famous skiing-place or something like it ?
|
Gelsenkirchen? Not that I knew of... :huh:
You could hardly ski here in our area without snow, which is rare, after all. ;) |
Never mind, I may be mistaking.

I was playing with a more detailed Map of Iceland* (only the capital and the surrounding areas) and I found my house!!

Reason for all the Edits where: Added country to the posts.. ESPECIALLY the American once..
"Hey.. I live in Sm?land" Does that say anything to you? Probably as much as Montana would to other ppl.. This is an INTERNATION site, and when replying in such a thread, you are expected to say country atleast... |
Melbourne, Australia
|
I live in a suburban part of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Yes, everyone hates us. Also, we think that the Eaton Centre is the greatest mall in the world, apparently. Down with the West Edmonton Mall? |
Currently all I found was a pic of my school:
Philip Pocock SS (SecondarySchool) http://www.alphafreeflow.com/jobsite...l_SiteWork.JPG Square One beats Eatons Center!!!! We got Playdium LOL. Also Microplay is there too (tryin to get a job there) |

Yes, Omuletzu. Many US (and Canadian) towns are named after European cities.
In fact, there used to be a town called Berlin here in Ontario. It changed it's name in World War II to Kitchener. |
Scarbero (can't spell it) is an evilll city :ph34r: :ph34r: 3/4 of the murdurs I see on tv are in that city.
|
@Omuletzu
They wanted to name it after the seat of learning of Athens, Greece because we have a University that was built here around the same time as the city. |
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA. I'm one of the imperialist pig-dogs, and I've got the T-shirt to prove it.
|
Since every1s giving a map my turn too I live here
|
they dont have Sofia maps in Maporama :cry:
|
Hmmm... the US can concider themselves happy that I didn't live a few centuries earlier. They'd've had cities named Schettertrompet and @(B^} if I did (just like in those colonizing games... Colonization and Conquest of the New World, for example)

I'm Polish and I live in Windsor - The Cancer Capital of Canada. :help:

Some other people from the United States that posted here immediately write "but I'm not fond of the US", like it's some trendy new thing to say, or that people from outside the country just HAVE to know whether or not one is a Bush supporter. Regurgitation of the blatantly obvious (i.e. "Bush Is A %$#@!"), or even the blatantly ignorant (i.e. "This country sucks.") is no more a sign of intellegence or unique thought than any of the comments that Bush supporters repeat. If all you're doing is repeating what everyone has said for a long time, just how deep are your thoughts on the matter? Anyway...I'm just as much against our current (and past) policies as anyone, but there's no need to feel ashamed about living in the United States. If anything, be proud that you're one of the people in this country who shows some signs of intelligent thought. |
USA, Massachusetts to be exact. :ok:

I completely agree. As a Canadian, I have no problem with the nation itself. Sure, I think it's administration right now leaves a lot to be desired, but you'll never catch me burning American flags or laughing at any US tourists because they're from the US. I know that may seem a suprise since every Canadian is supposed to be resentful of America, but that's how it is. |

well some have a nasty accent and they call that ABN. Oh well. I live in the north somewhere ;) |
This is quite a bit :ot: but lately the Dutch and Belgian television have a tendency to subtitle Dutch in ... well Dutch. So if a show from the Netherlands (in Dutch that is) is on a Belgian channel it's being subtitled and when a Belgian show is on in The Netherlands, it's subtitled as well! Apart from a bit of accent, the words are almost all the same ...
That's like subtitling Monty Python in the USA!? :wall: (But maybe this does happen? Does anyone know?). |
