You should.Come here get drunk on some fine Canadian brewed beer :sergio: and then we will settle things out in pubs. After that we will hit the dancing clubs (full of overly tanned steroid raged guidos, Arabs and portguese) and win this battle too.
I'll have to drive up with St. Andrew draped around my shirtless back to get Red's back. I don't trust Canadians, not one bit.:andy2:

Sounds like a good night.

The whole final stage of social development/rebellion before adulthood. You know we're a bunch of alcoholics in Ireland and we legally have 3 years on you yanks we do that whole thing from 15-18/19 like I'm sure you guys do it from 18/19-21/22.
I think you are underestimating us yanks. It is true that our society has attempted to repress such social development to an extent and there are more Americans who enter college as virgins to alcohol and other things but this holds back only a percentage of the youth. I have been drinking since I was 14 like most of my friends and participating in such "social development".

As young people we don't let the more conservative older generations hold us back quite as much as you seem to think. American teenagers do the same amounts of partying and drinking the only difference is such activities are more taboo here so it is kept more secretive by the youth and our parents remain ignorant.

You are right that there are young people who wait until college to come out of their shell but many Americans treat high school quite the same way.

I think you are overestimating your collective selves with regard to the standards that I experience here and consequently hold.

I don't know why you're making a mope out of me agreeing with you, fuck sake.

Watch your back my man. :tup:
I didn't want to come to Canada after finishing my english courses in the USA. I was accepted to study chemcial engineering back in 2003 from oakland university in Auburn hills,but my student visa wasn't renewed due to the whole fiasco back then and also me being Lebanese/arab, Canada is a nice and peaceful country but I would have definitely loved to stay in the USA. I have more relatives there and more things to do than here. I also loved the location of the university in Michigan.
