Europe Day

[Louis VI the Fat]

lol, a debate about the correct form of light-bulbs is very worthy, and very EU i might add, but it is hardly pertinent to the greater ambitions we celebrate in europe day, surely?

Hah! At last, the beauty of the European project is beginning to dawn on you!

Europe was born on the ninth of may, one day after the eight, which marks the end of half a century of European self-destruction. A destruction coming from so many sides, driven by so many ideologies, that the one remedy was thought to be to smother endemic European disagreement in detailed talk over lightbulbs and babana curvature. Genius. The way you keep twenty-five eight year old boys off each other's throat by expending their energy by letting them play cowboys and indians outside.


For this reason, once the European project is completed, I will demand it is immediately dismantled again, and the process started all over. Because the project itself, not unification or any other future goal, is the ultimate meaning of the EU.


Hail the EU! Hail the world's greatest continent!
