[QUOTE=AngryChairR;24062379]How am I a troll for telling people how it really is?

Do you know what a troll is?

Get back to runescape. :/[/QUOTE]

maybe where you live you've had some bad experiences, and sure there are places in england that aren't fantastic, but you can't just say the entire country is a shithole and most of the population are retarded. in that sense you are trolling. and if you hate england so much, then why not emigrate?

[cbrain]

[QUOTE=Gareth;24062500]Because that's a lie. I live in Surrey which has its fair share of twats but it's still no where near a dump by any means and most of the houses here are actually looked after.[/QUOTE]

Surrey is one of the nicest areas in England so you can hardly judge the rest of the country by it.

[AngryChairR]

PM British Facebookers or read comments on The Sun for proof on retarded population

[WeekendWarrior]

Wow this thread has really gone downhill.

No just the thread, it's people bashing the country now instead of naming good things about it.

[cheesedelux]

Scotland is England with less hostility.
Whenever in England I remember the trespassing laws. Scotland's own version of the law is more "The countryside is everybody's go wherever the hell you like, just don't touch other people's stuff" whereas England's is closer to "Get orf my land"

Both are still better than the US's "Get out or get shot"

We ran out of good things to say at page 2.

Because it's not like that at all. Every country has it's fair share of idiots, but the majority are good people. So you are either trolling or you are incredibly simple.

[QUOTE=AngryChairR;24063129]We ran out of good things to say at page 2.[/QUOTE]

Then leave (the thread). If you don't have anything good to say about it, then why come in here and start pissing people off? The only reason you would have to do that is if you were trolling.

Heh. You're still at it.

[David29]

[QUOTE=Lenni;24063587]Heh. You're still at it.[/QUOTE]

Yup.

[Assburgers]

England has it's pro's and cons.

Main thing I don't like is the chavs. Not too many at my school, but even still they annoy me. They don't even try at school, go on with life without attempting to work because they can just leech of the government, and don't help our country at all. Then at an early age they decide to make more idiot offspring too continue this shit cycle.

But other than that, Living here is pretty good.

And angrychair, you do have a fair share of dickheads but quit generalising the entire country. You live in a village full of retards. Doesn't mean the whole country is retarded. And the sun isn't the only news paper (If you even want to call that piece of shit that). Quit being so dense.

[QUOTE=-Method;24035063]The North is full of dispicable tosspots who think they are better than everyone else. The south of england is not full of the greatest people on the face of the planet, that would be an exageration , but at least they are not inbred.[/QUOTE]

Look at this southern ponce whining on the internet

[QUOTE=Lenni;24049246]You're pathetic.[/QUOTE]

Here we go, an approximate bill of all the health related things I have received for free from the government (from what I remember, there are probably more) with a reasonable estimated cost of the price in America;

Tetanus shot (£20)
TB jab (£40)
x4 flu jabs (£80)
Complete Hepatitis A immunisation course (£230)
Emergency call out with transport to A&E (£120)
Emergency treatment for dislocated knee whilst in A&E (£650)
Emergency call out with treatment on site (£300)
Emergency call out with transport to A&E (£120)
Xray of knee (£70)
5x consultations with a general practitioner (£500)
First professional consultation with Orthopaedic doctor (£180)
Xray of knee (£70)
Second Orthopaedic consultation (£180)
Surgery on left knee (£2200)
Hospital stay during surgery (£700)
Drug prescriptions (£200)
Physiotherapy (£200)
Third Orthopaedic consultation (£180)
Xray of knee (£70)
Surgery on right knee (£2200)
Hospital stay during surgery (£700)
Drug prescriptions (£200)
Physiotherapy (£200)
Fourth Orthopaedic consultation (£180)
Xray of knee (£70)
x3 Orthodontist consultation (£300)
Braces (£300)
x16 Optician consultation (£1120)
Glasses (£120)
Tests for Glaucoma (£200)
17x Dentist visits (£1020)
6x fillings (£360)
Tooth pulled (£120)

I could go on, but I think you get the idea. The total of that list comes to £13200 or $20581 for you Americans. Going from my payslips from my entire working life (four years) I have paid £0 in taxes and about £200 in national insurance. I'm sure once I have a full time job that pays more than £6k a year I will start paying taxes, but I have a thirteen grand head start on them, not even counting for the cost of my primary and secondary school education, the various grants and bursaries I have received at University and the cost of other Public Services such as the fire and police.

In short, shut up.

[QUOTE=cbrain;24058981]And yeah if you want decent TV get Sky. Virgin's is mostly an afterthought for people who are only interested in a service if they can get everything else packaged together phone/internet/TV.[/QUOTE]

Don't listen to this man, he's talking bollocks. The BBC is the only channel worth a damn, really, and Sky is an unnecessary expense on top of the TV licence.

[QUOTE=Mobzor;24064701]6 fillings, been scoffing that extra sugary goodness eh Hezzy?[/QUOTE]

I ate a lot of sweets when I was young, that's why it was free! Dentist stuff is free up until 16 unless you're in further education, then you can have it until 18.

Hah, so did I, but I guess I got lucky and have never needed fillings.

Yeah I'm aware of this, I'm 17 at the moment and in full time education. I laugh at my sister who's 20 and doesn't get free dentistry.

Haha, it'll be hard for them to find a decent argument to that.

Without Sky I wouldn't be able to watch all of the good football.

[LordLoss]

Sky is alright, their HD is pretty good, and I can't wait to try out the new 3D stuff, as soon as I can get my hands on a decent 3D TV.

[jaybuz]

Sky isn't worth it all, I only watch like 7 channels, the rest are shit.

My girlfriend has Virgin and they get the movie and sports channels for no extra cost, as well as having an on-demand function that totally blows Sky's "Anytime" (or whatever it is called) out of the water. Combining the internet and TV, she probably has an overall cheaper plan too.
