Hmm Kuwait, or Q8. That's where those gas stations were from. That's probably in Texas, right? It all makes sense now. Saddam invaded Bush's home state, so he had to get him back!

When my cousin was on a 14-day exchange to a town near Indianapolis his "foster father" said he wouldn't let his daughter go on a corresponding exchange to Germany because it's adjacent to the volatile country of Pakistan

Americans like that give the rest of us a bad name...

You are joking right?

Nope. I wasn't there myself but my cousin is not usually known to exaggerate stuff. Maybe he misunderstood some of it.

I did see a very funny video interviewing Americans at Venice Beach about where to invade next.
On the list were France, Italy, one guy said Australia (because we are a nuclear threat apparently).
Another guy was asked to pinpoint North Korea on a map when he said it should be invaded. He stuck the pin in Australia. He then went on to say he didn't realise how much bigger North Korea was than South Korea (he was looking at Tasmania... a small island off the south coast of Australia for those who don't know).

But to conclude my little rave there I found it a wonderful laugh, but it's also very, very worrying.

As for source... I believe it was The Chaser.

HA!

But may I ask How big is Iraq?


And Nick, be sure to keep your head down, we'll be invading North Korea any day now from Tasmania.

Whats really funny is that show that comes on American TV every once in a while called "Street Smarts." They go around and pick random people to ask questions and then contestants have to guess who got the answer right...funny stuff there.
