Brilliant! Great find Noirem.  ;D
We stole countries with the cunning use of flags. Just sail around the world and stick a flag in. "I claim India for Britain!" They're going "You can't claim us, we live here! Five hundred million of us!" "Do you have a flag …? "What? We don't need a flag, this is our home, you bastards" "No flag, No Country, You can't have one! Those are the rules... that I just made up!...and I'm backing it up with this gun, that was lent to me from the National Rifle Association."

Should be required reading.

I always forget to go to Cracked until somebody links to it. Don't know why. They can be wickedly funny.

I was just going to say this. :) My "problem" with Cracked is if I start reading an article, I'll start reading other articles and be on the website for an hour longer than I should have.

That was so perfect.  I so had to fight the urge to joke about how many people just like that I've seen on my favourite expat website here in the UK, but I realized it would just look like I was living in "Americatown" and couldn't see it :)
