Thanks for the broad generalizations, because you know yes, we are all EXACTLY like that. We're a bunch of government clones with no free thoughts of our own. And where is it you're from so we will know where all the perfect people live so we can aspire to be just like you.
There's some good ol' American sarcasm for you. Prick.
