My favorite weird thing about American culture is that it is so aggressive. Aggressive food (PopTarts, Big Gulps, etc), aggressive games (football), aggressive national anthem (literally about war), and so on. We are an oddly aggressive people.
Regarding the national anthem, you should look up a translation of the French national anthem. And it probably isn’t the most metal/aggressive national anthem out there, since it’s one of the very few I even know.
Edit: I couldn’t help but add this snippet
Grab your weapons, citizens!
Form your battalions!
Let us march! Let us march!
May impure blood
Water our fields!
I got into a bar fight with a pop tart once. Super aggressive guy. He knocked a couple of my teeth out and gave me a nose bleed. By the end he had me pinned down, but I managed to break free and throw him into the nearest toaster. Savored that meal.
I once tasted a real proper tart. Served at the wake of a late boss at a golf club house. English tea times sometimes include simple jam tarts. Both envoke tranquil and enjoyability. All my experiences with the Pop Tart were under rush, duress, haste, a sugar-to-blood delivery system. One can tell easy when we (USA) aggravate the food. Like turning doughnuts into donuts. Or spell cheese with a ‘z’.
I didn’t say that’s what it meant. I just wondered if they would think one was much more aggressive than the other. I do. More than one thing can be true.
The german one started out as a poem then song that was meant to unite states through their artists and academics. While the nazi abused it and skewed the meaning to be aggressive (germany above all other countries), it was initially about unity (Germany above whatever the princes of the individual states of the German Confederation want).

My favorite comment today lol
No I was the toaster. That really hurt. You could have hurt somebody.

Cheeze is spelled with a z there because it literally isn’t cheese, it’s a vegan substitute.
That actually makes sense haha
That others are also aggressive doesn’t mean we are not.

blood and soil
sheesh😬
This checks out as the French are the second biggest arms dealer in the world.
Pop Tarts are super aggressive. In addition to being made of no natural foodstuffs, they are extremely flammable when in a toaster.
Haha well a lot of people are defining pop tarts as aggressive in different ways. Apparently I’m way too narrow in my interpretation of that word
Careful, that kind of talk may get you beaten up.
Shot, man, shot.
I believe all anthema are about war. Mexico’s about the need to fight agains a foreign enemy invasion…

Have you seen George Carlin’s bit on football vs baseball?
Yea but also casual. Like we in our jeans and baseball caps leaning on a wall ready to fuck shut up at a moments notice lol.
Aggressively casual. 😉
