[QUOTE=Zonesylvania;44231986]Hey, they at least gave you Canadian bacon, butter tarts, Tim Horton's, and Nanaimo Bars as compensation for foisting him off on to you folks. I think one annoying singer is compensation enough for that. Oh and don't forget Dungeons of Dredmor.[/QUOTE] We already have Canadian bacon. It is called Ham. They should count themselves lucky that their dirty promises of fake bacon haven't resulted in an invasion. Tim Horton's is almost dead in the US, having lost out to other chains. The only reason I know what it is is because it is used to make fun of Canadians on a regular basis. Those other two I've never actually encountered. Dungeons of Dredmor was good though. I guess that was worth Bieber.
[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;44231587]Sanctions are gonna do jackshit really to Russia. The only reason it hurt the Russian economy thus far was the threat of countries in the EU and Middle East doing it. That will hurt Russia, not the United States and Canada getting butthurt.[/QUOTE] Literally right from the OP: [quote]The U.S. and [b]Europe[/b] on Monday would then unite to impose sanctions on Russia, Kerry told a Senate Appropriations subcommittee Thursday during a hearing on the State Department's budget.[/quote]

[QUOTE=laserguided;44232159]Europe isn't going to fuck itself in the ass.[/QUOTE] With all due respect, I think the US Secretary of State might know the intentions of European nations better than you.
[QUOTE=PolarEventide;44232570]With all due respect, I think the US Secretary of State might know the intentions of European nations better than you.[/QUOTE] I think they won't do anything major because it will affect their own economy.
Come on, guys, they're trying at least! There is not much they can do except threatening them and hoping they start having second thoughts. Obviously nobody wants a war.
[QUOTE=PolarEventide;44232570]With all due respect, I think the US Secretary of State might know the intentions of European nations better than you.[/QUOTE] lmao that might be true but I bet the Secretary of State also knows better than you do that European nations prefer to stay warm during the winter, so they probably need all that natural gas they're nearly 100% dependent on.
[QUOTE=Riller;44231399]They're way better than lies, man. They're [I]future-lies[/I]. They're like, a quantum super-position of lie and truth until you break them or keep them at some point in the future, then [B]bam[/B], you collapse the wave-function and it's either or! Empty promises are the best, man. Here... Here, I'll make an empty promise. 'I will not press the reply button on this post'. This is so far true at the time of writing. [editline]14th March 2014[/editline] ...And [B]BAM[/B], collapsed into a reality of lies. See? Wasn't that cool?[/QUOTE] [img]http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/zkzWyOaS8kU/hqdefault.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=Zero-Point;44231323]No he wouldn't have, there's no oil there.[/QUOTE] There's a lot of oil, we have those magical pumps and oil comes out of them.

[QUOTE=GunFox;44231926] Cut internet cables along the floor. [/QUOTE] Let's not overdo it here. I mean shooting up russians is one thing but this is a fucking war crime.
[QUOTE=proch;44233213]Let's not overdo it here. I mean shooting up russians is one thing but this is a fucking war crime.[/QUOTE] Totally true. A lot of people can't even live without internet, so there is a real danger that this can cause a huge wave of suicides. It's the same as taking life support machine from a critical patient. My personal record of living without internet is about 5 or 6 minutes. Then i start feel really bad and sick. Please don't cut these cables.
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;44231277]make fun of Bush all you want, he'd of done something about this by now. He'd of probably invaded Poland by now.[/QUOTE] Reminded me of this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mahTGNIk4q4[/media]
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;44232651]lmao that might be true but I bet the Secretary of State also knows better than you do that European nations prefer to stay warm during the winter, so they probably need all that natural gas they're nearly 100% dependent on.[/QUOTE] Yes, except that winter is almost over, and the United States will start selling natural gas to Europe next winter. The goal is to replace Russia as Europe's largest supplier.
