Benny Hill should be considered a British National Treasure!
He should have been made a lord.

Not happy with who I am currently, nor what I am doing currently. Hence the move to change things up. America fucked me up. Too much stuff here that I hate, such as capitalism, commercialism, narcissism, and superficiality to name a few. Yeah I know those things exist else where but fucking hell they are everywhere here. I can't stand the mass population here. Constantly surrounded by people who don't give a fuck about you or anyone else. Even people who get a kick out of fucking with other people. It's like everyone here acts like there are good and happy, but in reality they all hate themselves and actively pursue making other people miserable so they can feel better know that someone else is either worse off, or at least the same as they are.
I actually want to get the fuck out of mainstream society no matter the country. I would absolutely love to go live in the wilderness. Build a homestead out in the middle of nowhere and live off the land. But alas I made commitments to my wife and child which leaves me stuck having to live around other people.
94% of Americans polled said Monty Python was hilarious
The remaining 6% were confused
Some of those things you hate are good things when used appropriately.
I dislike most of the same things you do and believe it will only get worse as time goes on. The lack of responsibility is my biggest gripe. Everyone points their fingers elsewhere instead of at themselves.
My in-laws are exactly as you have said (bolded). It's amazing how far out of their way people will go to fuck someone else over. I like when it blows up in their faces.
We're actively searching for unimproved land to purchase and build on. It'll be nice to have a cabin in the woods someday.
The world has always sucked. You just realize it more the older you get.
Have you always lived in the DC area while in the states? It is not conducive to loving thy neighbor
to be fair, you live in NOVA. You basically just described the region to a tee. Thats not all of america.

I believe quality of life is directly tied to social awareness and social empathy. When people understand what real patriotism is, that the only way to love one's country is to love the people within, then you will see society progress forward. Until then people will continue to think loving a symbol is patriotism, while they trample over each other trying to race to the top.
Yes, but then you either care, or you don't care. I care.
Well it's the same America that is exported overseas. I experience it outside the country, and when I move inside the country, I experience it again. People can tell me all day that most of America is not like this, but it's not going to change my mind. I would need to experience it and for that to happen I would have to stay here and go searching for it. I don't have the finances nor mental fortitude to do that.
If you live someplace rural, its much more personable, and much less consumer. Namely because people work for a living.
it's no more prevalent than in the city
in the south, yeah, its probably a thing. I dunno, when i think of tolerant rural areas i think of
New england, the UP (wisconsin, michigan), the pacific northwest (outside of fuckin hipsterville)
