I’ve been told more than once how un-American I am for the reasons I get nauseous at the smell of hotdogs and bored within sight of a baseball game. However, its these same people who exclaim how little I resemble an American for my dislikes of some favorite pastimes that are the first runners up supporting those who think we should send ( Read more... )

Best opening argument, like, ever. And I'm really glad I now have a friend who hates the smell of hotdogs, too. I normally call them pig penises. :P

The marriage thing upsets me the most, I think. How dare people say that a gay marriage degrades the meaning of the bond! Hello, maybe it was, in fact, your third marriage that did that, or your sloppy, quick divorce! No, wait, how about the fact that you're only staying together, not our of love, but our of convenience!?

I'm not some kind of liberal asshole who refuses to see the other side, but I reeeeally can't understand why people can't let things go to the way side and realize that we're not supposed to judge. I'll pick on the Christians really quick, because I think they oppose it the most; true, the Bible says that man/man and woman/woman is wrong, but it also says that judgment will be left up to God, and that every human is your brother! ZOMG. I get so frustrated about this issue.

Ok, sorry. I'm doing ranting back, or, really, ranting alongside you? Hahaha.

I love you Liz, I really do.
But about the hot dog comment... When I was in Europe there was a hot dog stand on every.single.freaking.corner. I don't think only people from America like hot dogs. Oh, and they were hot dogs. They would say something like, "HOT DOGS" on the title. And no, I'm not exageratting.
And hot dogs are sausages. Sausages are German. Hot Dogs = German Food with a Bun. And really, German food isn't known to be really good. Lots of fat.

That's all I have a problem with.

People seriously tell you you're un-American because you don't like baseball? Wow. I hate cricket, but I don't have anyone going "OMG UR NOT BRITISH U INFIDEL!"

You make some good points here, and I wish I were better-informed so I could reply to them properly. :)
