Que virtually every country in the world being mentioned by somebody!

Mr Benevolent · 03-01-2013 12:57PM

Uh, Ireland?

LivelineDipso · 03-01-2013 12:58PM

Isreal isn't crap. It's better than Ireland.

At least their Goverment cares about Israelis and defends them. Our lot hands us to the EU/IMF as taxation livestock and tells us to be thankful.

I agree completely with the first two points you mention on both countries, but I simply cannot agree with your last three issues.

However, I must commend you on a very well written explanation of your choices.

Is Israel considered amazing?

Switzerland is such a beautiful place though ! Granted it is extraordinarily expensive, like a big mac meal was €10 when I was there! :eek:

No worries, I used body odour and semaphore to underpin my arguments.

I haven't been overly enamored with the places I've seen in America- NY was grand, had a lot of fun there.

Chicago and Florida were crapola though.

Amazingly hated.

Israel and Australia are probably the two most criticised countries, apart from Ireland, on After Hours.

It's also a gross generalisation to say that any country is "a crap place."
Everywhere has it's good points.

Except for Calmorene: what a backward dump!

LivelineDipso · 03-01-2013 01:06PM

Most of the USA is hell. A few cities on the east and west coasts are alright.

Reasons why they are crap OP?

The King of Moo · 03-01-2013 01:08PM

Earth is over-rated. Everyone's always going on about all the animals and seas and mountains and all that stuff, but what have they ever done for us!?

Rubbish!!

Florida is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. I've gone every summer for 11 years, never gets any less striking.

I wasnt really thinking of the system of Government or the endless political and sectarian issues, I meant the so called promised land itself is a geographical and topographical sh1thole, a big bowl of dust and rock that could double as the moon.

As you brought it up though, the fact that you mention the Government cares about Israeli's and defends them, you omitted the caveat 'to the exclusion of all other dependents within its Borders.' Kinda sums up the situation.

Flat, swampy, oppressive, plastic. If it wasnt for Disney and Cape Canaveral theyd probably test nukes on it.

Agree to disagree.

The place itself seemed ok-it was the locals and general falseness of the hospitality sector that bugged me. The whole "have a nice day" ad nauseaum was what really peed me off.

Ihatecuddles-old · 03-01-2013 01:17PM

I'm a nature buff so I love the swampy aspect

air boat rides, nature walks, beautiful oceans, ranches. I'm in heaven in Florida!

It is what it is, got right hassle dressed in standard tourist rigout T shirt and shorts, wore jeans and sleeved shirt and I went under the annoying tout radar.

White pasty legs and shorts stand out like a beacon.

Switzerland has many great things about it; for example the flag is big plus.

Duggys Housemate · 03-01-2013 01:23PM

I don't know. The middle of the US is ****e, so the whole country is over-rated to a certain extent. I disagree about Chicago. It's nice.

Kajickistan is under- rates.

Denmark
Stable economy, high renewable energy sources, good value on the danish krone, healthy, great healthcare, good looking people yet....

They seem to be devoid of humour or a sense of fun. In my day to day interactions with them a smile was rarely returned. Walking down the bustling streets the only laughter I heard was that from children. Grafton street would have been deafening yet people seemed so removed from one another.

I could never live there.
