I laughed. It's 2:15 a.m. and I'm going mad with hunger, but I still laughed.

by the way I couldn't think of an insulting enough adjective to fit in between "complete" and "you" so i ask that you will use your imagination

good point dumbfuck, and since America has never done anything good how does that explain its status as the most powerful country in the world both economically and millitarily?
Oh and odbob, "i wouldn't say nuclear weapons are something we should be thanking anyone for" maybe if you weren't a complete you would realize that nuclear saved far more lifes than they have taken. Imagine the lives that would have been lost if the USSR and the United States had begun a conventional war, they didn't because of a little thing I like to call mutually assured destruction. Nuclear weapons act as a DETERRENT to war and thus everyone should be thankful for them. There is a little thing inside of your head, it is called a brain. Next time before you reply I would reccomend you use this brain

"more efficiently (smart bombs, nukes, laser guidance systems, depleted uranium warheads, ICBM's, napalm, agent orange and so on). "
-The first Smart Bombs were Japanese devices designed to spread Biological weapons.
-Most of the research for nuclear weapons was performed by non-americans, though for the US.
-The first ICBM was a Russian made R7 8k71.
-Americans did however invent the Laser and were the first to apply it to a bomb's guidance system.
-Napalm was an American invention, it's was developed by the Chemical Warfare Service during WW2 and in it's present form, by a team of scientists at Harvard University.
-I'm pretty sure the Americans came up with the idea for the Uranium Warheads and agent orange.

"i wouldn't say nuclear weapons are something we should be thanking anyone for. Even less the mass production of them. "
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, I suppose 'thankyou' may be the wrong word. Unless you thank people by kicking them in the balls, which I do.
Thanks Dubya!
ps - I wrote 'thank' because flight and mass production are things that have helped to shape the modern world. I couldnt actually think of any other american inventions that actually benefitted mankind. Its remarkable that most american inventions have been things that kill people more efficiently (smart bombs, nukes, laser guidance systems, depleted uranium warheads, ICBM's, napalm, agent orange and so on).

Whatever my views on the current US administration (fear, mainly), this was a pointless and fucking awful post.

The first working plane was designed in England by an englishman, he just died before getting around to actually build it, later tests have proved it would have worked better than the wright brothers, even though it was designed earlier.
Nuclear weapons are not something for thanking anyone for.
I don't think this was a serious list it's just a joke commenting on how little americans have come up with compared to other countries, and how they take the credit for things that they shouldn't. Like the revolver or the plane, although I appreciate that the wright brothers din't actually steal the idea, but developed it seperately.

I'd give you a positive because I found it quite amusing (quiet day at work) but I'm taking off points for the following:
Good things America has given the world:
The Simpsons (though minus points for Futurama being hugley better and no longer made)
Stargate SG1 (minus points for being filmed in Canada)
The West Wing (minus points for only having a fictional President that noble, human and intelligent)
Cranberries and associated fruity products
Oreos
...shame I can't really think of anything seriously worthwhile that America has given the world, unlike many European, Eurasian, Asian and African countries.
And as for America preventing Germany from taking over the world; the points below are entirely accurate, with some additions: Russia was far more responsible for the Allied defeat of Germany in 1945 than any other country. Your help was appreciated, but that is all it was, help. You did not win the war for us.

America didnt single handedly stop the Nazis. The Nazi advance was stopped in the west after the Battle of Britain (our finest hour) and in the east at Kursk. However, America helped liberate france, bore the brunt of the D-Day landings, manufactured thousand and thousands of Sherman tanks for the war and executed daylight air raids (the most risky type - something the british RAF were unwilling to do) on German positions.
Also we have America to thank for flight, mass production and nuclear weapons.
-2 for a seriously poor effort at hit whoring.

This was so obvious. There's no way it wasn't going to be a blank.
Well, I still clicked it.

America is not a person or any other animatron or living thing. It's a place. America CAN'T do anything. Our government consists of people who do things for the good of America, but the country itself has never done anything. So yeah, you're right to say that 'America' has done nothing.
If it ever gets the chance though, I am sure America will shit on your shoe.
