Countries and continents are artificial distinctions. Europe and the US are both landmass with about the same size, about the same population and about the same level of economic development. There are plenty of instances where comparing the two is valid and informative.
Don’t forget too that Europe has a long cultural history, while America is an amalgamation of various European cultures and some cultural innovations of its own. America is a new country compared to the long past of Europe.
“Country” refers to a political entity. There are very few European countries that can really claim to be as old as the United States. E.g. Germany and Itaty did not exist as unified countries until the 19th century.
Since when it Natalie Portman an average person or good representation of one?
Or how do you compare James Joyce to Kurt Vonnegut?
Whoever made this is probably a college drop out or 14 with no friends. It reeks of trying to peddle off back of the book smarts as intellect.
Oh wait I remember now. Its because as usual Tobias is right and this image is comparing cultures not countries though the dumb pussyass who made it seems to forget that citing precedent in culture isn’t so much about crediting the outcomes to yourself but instead giving an indication of how things could evolve based on past events.
But all it really does is show how 99.9% of the world aren’t happy until they’re unhappy. If people don’t have someone to direct their anger at then they find someone.
We created the bomb, and every American has like 8 guns. So if there’s ever a zombie invasion we’re going to have to bail out Europe for a third goddamn time. I’m not even going to count the time Ronald Reagan defeating the Soviets by tearing down the Berlin wall all by himself.
Australia is better.
So’s your mom.
In bed.
SEX
Your mother says hi too.
Lame comeback is lame.
Yet another example of comparing a continent to a country.
While true, it is a comparison that has been made by individuals.

Germania did.
No idea why I said that.

Well fucking said Sir.
“about the same population”?
Europe has over twice as many people
Though I get where this is going, I can’t remember ever seeing anyone in a flag of Europe tshirt.
we are better than that, good sir.
There’s a flag of Europe? European Union? Learned something new today.
I am dissapoint.

With his own hands too.
Reagan SMASH!!!
I don’t know about that, I’m sexy as shit.
I don’t know, Europe has Newton, and the father of modern physics and understanding of the universe kinda beats everyone forever.
Queen, really? That’s what you’re going with? Not that I don’t like Queen, but… Beatles? Anyone?
