Computer technology:

America: 4
UK: 0


haha. xo bye!

 

America: What, when.
UK: Help where needed

Who created the internet?

 

Al Gore. Duh.

 

Al Gore...

 

Goddam you. Beat me to it.

 

You might find that is BS, but you know that. I'm sure I will read that he did from you in the future.

 

Americans, who needs em'?

 

Two guys actually, one from Brooklyn New York another from New Haven Connecticut (both from the US).

Since you lurrrrrrv Wikipedia, I have found your page to read:

This is too good. You're getting spanked by the Americans woot



HipForums Debate:

Americans: 6
UK: 0.0001 (for the fraction of seriousness).

 

Piaf wins troll of the year award for even starting this thread.

 

DARPA.

You guys did have Turing though, who's pretty much the godfather of computer science. Also driven to suicide by the UK forcing him to undergo chemical castration.

America: 6
UK: -1

 

Also, a total babe.

 

brits vs canadians I think would be a better title.

I think that is an even match as you'll both be slapping each other.

Americans will steal your house, fuck your wife, and teach you kids how to use a gun.

The title is missleading.

 

Well, my closing statement here, is that I was only half joking before.....and I was comparing men on a personal level...not all the other stuff.....but maybe I feel more comfortable with them...because they are a looooooooog distance away from me.....atriot::argue:

 

It's a trick question...

Please explain how those two guys 'created the internet'.

 

Roamy must be raging with jealousy :mickey:

 

Its amazing how often that pops up. that either Turing invented computer science, or Berners-lee invented the web, neither of which are even remotely close to the truth


And they didnt actually force Turing to be castrated, it was a course of synthetic oestrogen, at the time the belief was that male homosexuals had a form of hypersexuality and the aim was to decrease that libido. Which was a bit of a laugh in two ways 1) the belief that a female hormone would decrease libido and 2) the way to cure his gay is to make him more feminine. That combined with cold war paranoia, was believed that homosexuals in government were more easily seduced by undercover spies, his lover wasnt forced to undergo such treatment as he was a nobody.

Its all sounds rather whack nowadays, but was more about his position and crazy cold war stuff, or that the medical profession didnt have much of a clue, than the gay thing

 

Croatians of note:

Was actually a Croatian that invented the parachute, so if it wasnt for a Croatian James Bond would have died long ago and the movie Point break would have finished half way through


and the bass player in Nirvana is Croatian
