Five Things The US Got Right (And later, the Anti-US bashing thread.)

1. Jazz and hip-hop. They are two genres I can claim that America completely owns. Not only did they originate in this country, we also have the best fucking performers!
2. Videogames. Tennis for Two, guys. Tennis for Two.
3. Jeans. There is nothing that doesn't go with jeans.
4. General insanity. We are a collectively batshit nation and I couldn't be happier for it.
5. Conservation efforts. I like forests, dammit.

I would have disputed hip-hop/rap as being a good thing America has given the world two days ago.

I have discovered Flobots, however.

Theodore Roosevelt for the win.

Good. Because there is nothing more annoying than an ardent rap detractor. Nothing. And yes! Teddy is the living embodiment of awesome, though I'm not sure if that's Cracked or his actual merits talking.

Mostly Cracked. Though he did in fact do good things in between all the badass.

I think writing him as a character is the most fun I've ever had. Historical Domain Characters don't get any better—until I get to write Abraham Lincoln, of course.

Did you know there's more undeveloped wild forest in North America than there is in Africa? Though that's mostly because of Canada and it's vast mostly-unsettled regions...
