    Impress her by showing your education and telling her her bikini is violating the US Flag Code and she must remove it.

    Even better! Tell her she needs to take it off to save it from anti-flag protestors who are looking for a flag to burn. You'll come off as a hero for saving the dress and be patriotic.

    Alternatively, tell her to take off the dress because you want to see her naked.

    Historically this has been my most effective strategy.

    i basically never fart in public (or private really). I let it all build up and then go to the restroom a few times to depressurize. Like a civilized human being.

    Purportedly, that's really bad for your GI tract.


    Be healthy. Fart anywhere, any time.

    Yeah, but your workplace is considerably looser on dress code than most of ours.

    I just had an Indian guy call me "from the technical desk about my windows computer". I kind of wish I had wasted his time for a while, but I just hung up on him. He was really awkward with his greeting, he must be new at scamming people. We've been getting an absurd amount of telemarketing/robo calls lately, I don't know how everyone got our number.

    Happiness is within reach!

    sometimes i wish the UK had a flag wavy day

    then i remembered jingoistic flag waving pisses me off (it's a British thing)

    still, it seems unfair that everyone else has one

    I'm always torn because the fourth of july isn't really super interesting to me in a lot of ways but it's the closest thing America has to a cultural festival, which is something I enjoy.

    It's always funny to me how uncomfortable our love of flags makes some europeans. It's just a flag guys, yeah the national anthem has some racist verses but the flag is nice!

    Maybe you could wave a non-national flag. Like just have a flag wavy day for everyone's favorite charities.

    Half the world has a flag-waving day because we got rid of the British one and came up with our own.

    You can be proud of what you've given us.

    But then again, I don't enjoy too many hallmarks of typical American culture.

    The amount of American flags to be found around this country makes some Euros legit nervous.

    I think it's adorable. :)



    When I first went to Germany I tried to find a German flag in the airport gift shops or whatever to bring home to the kids, and there were none to be had. I couldn't really explain why daddy didn't get them a Germany flag until they were a lot older...

    Perhaps it is you who are overestimating how difficult it is to convince people to remove their clothing!

    This place has its flaws but overall it's pretty fucking rad.

    I've been getting those for the past couple of months and I have politely asked multiple times to be removed from their calling lists as it's been my work cell that they have been calling. No idea how they got that number but sure enough they have. Finally, after probably the tenth time it's happened they called again yesterday in the middle of the afternoon while I'm sitting at work putting in orders. They didn't get nice Mr. Gonmun that time.

    I don't really care about the flag itself. It's the weird fetishism attached to it.

    About 4 months ago, I put the GTX 760 2G on my buy list. $250-$300 is the budget. Has the landscape changed much since then?

    I'm more on the "It's pretty much OK" side of things as opposed to the "It's pretty fucking rad" side of things, but yeah America is good enough to have a celebration about it.

    Flag wavy days are pretty cool, in limited amounts. Kings Day is a great national holiday over here, the only one where people all head into town, and the night before it is one of the biggest party nights of the year (On the level of new years eve).
    WC/ECs every 2 years also come just often enough to make them feel like special. Having a few weeks where you see your friends every few days, bbq and drink then tense up immensely at the TV.

    The thing about the USA is that it is very flag wavy all the time, which is a bit gaudy. In the Netherlands flags are reserved for 3 national holidays, graduating school, birth/death of royals, and international football. The fact that you pledge alliance so often just sounds... indoctrinating.

    And even when we do get paid time off as part of the compensation package, and take that time off, we're often on e-mail and the phone during the vacation because business needs us.
