>Which country reigns on top during the 20th century, then?

Technically the United Kingdom if you take into account that Ulysses counts as UK at the time of its creation.

Couple that with Lord of the Rings and America simply cannot compete. Not even close. Many such cases. Sad!

I did this when I was younger, primarily as I thought it would impress the ladies.

Anyway, one night I managed to get my autistic self to a nightclub, and after spending a few hours walking around the dancefloor without interacting with any women, I became sufficiently drunk enough to muster up the courage to speak to a far more inebriated girl who was half sprawled out across the bar stalls.

"Hi, can I just tell you something?" I asked, the alcohol having numbed my anxiety.

I proceeded to recite a W.B Yeats poem.

>"I KNOW that I shall meet my fate"
>"Somewhere among the clouds above"

"Whuut?" was her slurred reaction.

>"Those that I fight I do not hate"
>"Those that I guard I do not love"
>"My country is Kiltartan Cross-"

"Oh FUCK OFF you weirdo" was her justified response.

I've never been more humiliated in my fucking life. I thought I was being an aloof dandy, reciting a poem I had committed to memory, which had absolutely no relation to the situation I was in at that moment. I thought she would find it quirky but she was right, I was being fucking weird. The alcohol had removed my social anxiety and I sperged.

Sometimes this random moment creeps up in my memory and makes me physically jolt from the sheer excruciating embarrassment.

Why are angry little Racist cunts on the internet so offended when you call them RACIST CUNTS?

That's what they are, and yet they try so hard to deny it.

Is it because, just maybe, on some level they realise that racism is repugnant, and that being an annoying little racist cunt is shameful?

Follow your leader chaps, follow your leader.
