Like, can you name just a few large cities in certain regions, none at all, wtf is the USA, etc.

The USA is geopolitically isolated in a rather unique way on the global stage where this is an interesting perspective.

Yeah yeah, y'all are like Texas talking about independence but from the other side of the boarder. You're practically States already; one major oil strike away from a WMD Bushwanking invasion.

...if only we could afford your Megaflea market - Vancouver.

Yeah, but we have a functioning democracy. That's pretty cool, if you want to fling mud.

I don't think any of us really have a choice in the matter of our governments any more than a sand grain has a choice of beach or sea bed, right?

I'm not flinging mud friend. I think all philosophical government speak must come with a ribald pall. I am flinging a beer at a new friend in a digital bar for a few empty words. Sorry if my ebullience tints florid or dare I say turgid.

I've fallen through the social safety net of my respective government with an insuperable future. My sardonic outlook colors my words.
