Darros Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Canada is great but I would never declare it the best, nor do I feel any amount of pride from being Canadian aside from rareinstances. So would I call myself patriotic? Not really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Mods please change my name to ANZCOC, given that ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, but I am too dignified to give my life away for a concept so abstract as a nation, ergo 'Conscientious Objector Corps' would be more apt, for you see it is a profound metaphor against jingoism and I am more intelligent than you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makaze Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 it's the most obtuse shit imaginable dude lol I can understand blaming the connection for your not getting it but... I made this connection when I was around 12-13. kami = god, divine ma = devil, evil It's not exactly a subtle nuance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refa Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) Canada is great but I would never declare it the best, nor do I feel any amount of pride from being Canadian aside from rareinstances. So would I call myself patriotic? Not really. I think you can be patriotic without declaring that your country is the best (also how did I almost typo that as 'cuntry' what the hell, Refa).

You, stop making it so easy for them. :V As for the question, i...not really. Heh. At least not for my home nation. I have an odd patriotic bent on Norway. /shrug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I don't really know enough about other nations to say "my country is the best, fuck ya america!" or things like that. But I like it here well enough, so I guess I would say I'm patriotic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makaze Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 You, stop making it so easy for them. :V This really shouldn't have invited these types of replies; I've been consciously keeping it down as regards soap boxing and such. It happens that my name means a lot to me and is more than just another word; that should not be reason to attack it harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
