We helped the Cubans out a lot during the Spanish American War but they let the Russians put missiles there. That makes me mad, but I guess we all have to forgive.
[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;27432229]I like how Obama acts like he has authority over the Cuban government. It's not like they don't have a leader or anything. Cuba will probably just laugh and kick the Yankee tourists out.[/QUOTE] Why would they? They would get money from american tourist.

That makes me mad, but I guess we all have to forgive.[/QUOTE] the americans have been screwing over cubans for years via the platt amendment where basically (upon granting independence in the early 1900s) we reserved the right to do anything the fuck we want without their permission on their land and interfere with all foreign policy issues in cuba. then later when the presidents began doing shit we didn't like we supported fidel castro by putting an arms embargo on the country so he and some rebels could stage a coup. then when fidel didn't live up to our expectations the gov't conspired with everyone (even the fucking mafia) to assassinate the motherfucker. at every single opportunity the united states has treated cuba like a child and interfered with its affairs far more than with any state we have done to date cubans were pissed about this shit we had the bay of pigs and the attempt to put cuban americans onto cuban land to spread rumors about castro and start thoughts of revolution of course they'd be pissed after getting shat on for 50 years
[QUOTE=Raiskauskone V2;27429620]That's most likely because American cars are pieces of shit that practically deep-freeze themselfs everytime the temperature hits below -5C.[/QUOTE] why do all europeans complain about negative celsius thats like 20 degrees, an average northern winter temp deal with it
I have a dual citizenship, so I can go anyway, suck it.
If USA legalizes Cuban Cigars, you will watch how the Cuban Peso (Cuban Currency) will rise. But at least now Cuba will be making a little bit of money from more tourists.
Cuba is actually a nice country, not a massive shithole like everybody thinks it is.
[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;27429230]Cuba is the only country outside of North America that still uses American cars.[/QUOTE] From 1970 no less... :colbert:
[QUOTE=peepin;27434061]If USA legalizes Cuban Cigars, you will watch how the Cuban Peso (Cuban Currency) will rise. But at least now Cuba will be making a little bit of money from more tourists.[/QUOTE] The US won't buy the cigars, or anything from Cuba.
Finally.
[QUOTE=alexk;27429850]I wonder if Obama knows how much Cuban's actually hate Americans... And one of the reasons I like Cuba, is because of this, when your in resorts, it's basically all Canadians, besides the few people from Europe.[/QUOTE] Basically all Canadians = Basically all Americans who pretend to be Canadian so they won't get shot and robbed.
[QUOTE=Bllasae;27447499]Basically all Canadians = Basically all Americans who pretend to be Canadian so they won't get shot and robbed.[/QUOTE] I know this is true because I did it. I had to brush up on my Canadian by watching a lot of Strange Brew though.
[QUOTE=Raiskauskone V2;27429620]That's most likely because American cars are pieces of shit that practically deep-freeze themselfs everytime the temperature hits below -5C.[/QUOTE] Its also cuba where temps wont reach -5 [editline]15th January 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Tunak Mk.

[/QUOTE] 99% of canadians dont say aboot unless they are joking about canada. 40% of canadians say eh.

[QUOTE=DarkSpider;27431490]$500 for a quarter? That's really overpriced.[/QUOTE] I think it means quarter as in economic quarter, i.e. 1/4th of the business year, not quarter as in money.
Love me some cuban cigars, the buzz you can get off of some of those things is nuts, plus they taste pretty good as well.
[QUOTE=ratman_122;27450165]Love me some cuban cigars, the buzz you can get off of some of those things is nuts, plus they taste pretty good as well.[/QUOTE] Yeah, once they allow the free importation of Cuban cigars into the US, I will be a happy man. Got some Cohibas in Canada last summer and they were the shit.
[QUOTE=Raiskauskone V2;27429620]That's most likely because American cars are pieces of shit that practically deep-freeze themselfs everytime the temperature hits below -5C.[/QUOTE] You're dumber than a brick for baseless country hating. Plus you can't fucking spell "themselves".
I don't want dirty commies in my America!
[QUOTE=Raiskauskone V2;27429620]That's most likely because American cars are pieces of shit that practically deep-freeze themselfs everytime the temperature hits below -5C.[/QUOTE] American full-size pickup trucks have always been built like tanks. It's not uncommon to see trucks from the 70s and 80s on the roads here in Upstate NY, not exactly a place with weather friendly to cars.
[QUOTE=AlienFanatic;27433532]why do all europeans complain about negative celsius thats like 20 degrees, an average northern winter temp deal with it[/QUOTE] Yeah his point being that during an average winter an american car will freeze. Come on man that was easy for me to get and I've not had a good sleep in 3 days.
[QUOTE=bravehat;27450785]Yeah his point being that during an average winter an american car will freeze. Come on man that was easy for me to get and I've not had a good sleep in 3 days.[/QUOTE] In that case, his point is wrong. All the American auto companies are/were based in/around Detroit, where their winters are awfully cold.
I'm not saying he was right, just relaying what he meant is all. And I'm sure as fuck not agreeing with him, I hate ruskiaone or whatever the fool is called.
Most canadian cars are from american manufacturers and brands. We get some fucking cold ass winters up here and our cars still run.
