    Default Texas is bigger than France and the low countries put together

    I just felt everyone should be reminded.

    The Europeans have been getting a wee bit to uppity lately.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Wait....France is the capital of Texas, the biggest country in southern Africa? If not; I promise I'll get it right one day.

    France is more populated than Texas and the low countries put together.

    Hence, we win.

    Getting solar panels that run at 20% efficiency, and covering an area the size of Texas with them would solve the whole world's energy needs

    So from this thread we learn:
    1. Texas feels more inadequate than France and the Low Countries put together?
    2. Texas has furthermore a strong desire to emulate France whereas France needs no Texas?
    3. Yet France feels an inexplicable urge for Texan fast food?
    4. Canada is of dubious quality: both a hughe feeling of indaquacy in the face of the combined inadequacy of France & Texas; plus the wheather is rubbish and the food is disgusting?

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    Texas is bigger than France and the low countries put together” and is 95 % desert, snakes and cactus. Texas got no cheeses, no drinkable wines, no decent historical monuments, and no tulip.

    Brenus got it nailed, if Texas is so great then why isn't packed with dutchies and frenchies? It has little to offer to us that is why. And then you scream 'where are the Texans in said society's', and then we say something about maps and education

    A Texan farmer goes to Australia for a holiday. There he meets an Aussie farmer and gets talking. The Aussie shows off his big wheat field and the Texan says, "Oh! We have wheat fields that are at least twice as large".

    Then they walk around the station a little, and the Aussie shows off his herd of cattle. The Texan immediately says, "We have longhorns that are at least twice as big as your cows".

    The conversation has, almost died off when the Texan notices a herd of kangaroos hopping through the field. He asked the Aussie, "And what are those"?

    The Aussie replies with an stunned look, "Don't you have any rabbits in Texas"?
