What Was Fire Good Against Again?
OH SNAP!
Well, who won the World War II?
I rest my case.
And I’m a neutral swede!
The allied forces did, not USA alone.
Yeah, oh snap, it’s Fallout3! -> http://cheezburger.com/View/4347196160 -.-
No, that’s the Washington Monument there in the background. You can tell by the holes in the superstructure.
Given the recent trend in Las Vegas attractions, it is very probable that there actually _is_ a Washington Monument obelisk somewhere on the Strip.
It is the Washington Monument. This screenshot comes from the opening movie of Fallout 3, which takes place in Washington DC. The image is just a bad photoshop, probably not even made by Bethseda, of Fallout 3 with the New Vegas logo superimposed on it.
I think all this demotivational (and half the posts on this page) proves is that Americans aren´t the most ignorant self-absorbed people like most make us out to be. America is just the victim of a massive double standard. And quite frankly it´s getting really old.
That’s not even the New Vegas logo over it.
It’s Las Vegas.
Note the lack of spray paint, rust, and wear.
first!! :3 – yeah dude, you should be ashamed
you should be ashamed
the first poster is soooooooooooo cool. the person who posted that tooooooooootally didnt put the new vegas title on fallout three or anything! that’s toooooooooootally not photoshopped! and im reaaaaaaaallly not being sarcastic!
LOL, Amercans
your sentiment’s right, but people are going to jump on the fact that you spelled it wrong. but yea, lol, americans
it is sad that other countries know more about americans than those who live in the country, let alone the same city they dont know about
Considering that’s the DC wasteland from Fallout 3, and the ruins of the Washington monument from Fallout 3…..
Yeah, anyone who has played the new Fallout games should recognize that this isn’t from New Vegas.
thank you its incredible that none of the other retards that made these posters realized that it was part of the intro sequence from fallout3 that someone edited the vegas sign into
It’s worth noting that the Washington Monument is made of solid stone, not reinforced concrete, so that can’t be the WM as you can see the exposed rebar.
See also CoD: Modern Warfare 2 which has the same problem.
You’re assuming the artist/graphic designer for the game also knows that.
They draw pretty pictures, they don’t know structural engineering, nor the composition of buildings.
If the people who make video games and their art knew anything, there’d be a lot few explosions in games – and a lot more games would go from having health bars to being like Contra.
FINALLY!!! someone recognizes this for what it is. Bethesda’s first attempt at promoting New Vegas.
Except the funny thing is that it IS the Washington Monument. That is, unless the Luxor Obelisk (which doesn’t exist in F:NV) was damaged in the EXACT same way as the Washington Monument in F3, was surrounded by DC buildings, and was NOWHERE NEAR ANYTHING RESEMBLING THE LUXOR
win
At least Europeans still riot against injustice. Americans jut gave up, they sit on their fat asses watching American Idol, as your corrupt politicians and Christian fanatics take away your freedom.
Yeah, but Europeans riot against injustice in soccer.
Against injustice in soccer. You mean like general strikes in Portugal, France, Greece, Spain, Italy, Lithuania… and a lot of other non-general strikes. Right?
what is soccer?
*looks it up*
IT’S CALLED -FxxxING- FOOTBALL
no america did football right its supposed to be played in brief 8 second sprints for a few hour by 300 pound men not for 3 hour or how ever long that stupid game is by 160 pound men lightly jogging
actually, the rest of the world did football right, as, you know, it’s a ball, that you kick, with your foot.
Actually Football was given that name because it was played on foot, by the lower class people, whereas the upper class played Polo, which is on horseback. So all kinds of football are actually right, although you guys are talking about soccer and gridiron, the real football is AFL (you may not have heard of this, its Australian!)
^Agreed. I’m an American but I watch AFL every chance I get because that is some crazy s**t. Beats the hell out of football and American football. Need I elaborate? It’s a bit like rugby, football, and American football mixed all together but minus pads of any kind.
Not giving in the argument for dumbness or football, I always thought that americans are self-centered mainly because of the systems they use to distance, weight and temperature. Why the hell not use the metric, kilogram and celsius like the rest of the world?
^I’ve wondered this myself as an American but after examining it I guess it’s just due to the vastness of the United States and our stubbornness when it comes to change. To change all of the road signs, measurements, and thermometers that don’t show celsius, would be a monumental task that would require an incredible amount of resources for the actual change and long bouts of politicking in order to convince the 300,000,000+ people to change from something that is near second nature to them. Granted you wouldn’t have to convince all of them just the majority of the politicians and that is no mean feat. Do I think that eventually we will change to metric? Yes, but for the time being it will just have to stay the way it is.
America doesn’t make sense with those sports.
Football, however, ball and foot rarely make contact.
Polo. Horseback ball game with sticks. sense?
Now they forget what’s in one of the country’s most famous cities!?
America was right, that IS the Washington Monument. Ignorant f**k…
GUESS WHAT ?
American football too.
are you serious? that is the f**king Washington Monument… That picture is from the first release of Fallout 3 which was based in Washington DC. The luxor’s obelisk has more of an angle going up to it anyways. Look into something before you speak dumb ass. BTW I come from the 48th state based on the education level. Meaning out of all 50 states we are among the dumbest and I can tell tell the difference.
Dude, The Luxor isn’t even in Fallout: New Vegas.
The closest thing to real Las Vegas is the Lucky 38 which kinda looks like the Stratosphere, and the Silver Rush whish is an obvious nod to the Golden Nugget
American Football? Seriously. Play rugby. It’s like “football”, but full-contact, no pads, and more violence.
Rugby is one of the stupidest sports ever invented imo. People running full speed at each other with no helmet or pads? Just run into a wall why don’t you?
In fact, most people who identify as Americans are of European extraction. Lots of British, lots of Germans, and smaller lots of people from lots of smaller countries.
Loosing/winning a football tournament is an injustice?
I had no idea.
Like when you burn people alive in Greece for the crime of being bank tellers? Or when your new conquerors burn Paris?
F**k off, Eurotrash. Don’t you have some minorities to go incinerate or something?
/irony
you are a fat and dumb american. i, on the other hand, am amuch better person than you will ever be, because i am german.
/irony
well, i am german. and it is a sad fact that the us education system isn’t the best there is (our’s isn’t either), but those aren’t legitamate reasons to bash our heads in over a stupid demotivational poster.
btw: i like our socialist healthcare system. it is nice and cheap. and here comes the really ironic part: not as bureaucratic as hmo’s.
That word, irony, I don’t think it means what you think it means.
Actually it does:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irony#Verbal_irony
Also, you can’t really blame the dude for not writing “/verbal irony” because in german there aren’t really any other kinds of irony, so when you say “Ironie” you automatically mean “verbal irony”
Too bad that actually IS the Washington Monument, seeing as that screenshot is from Fallout 3 and NOT New Vegas. So sad that people in other countries are so quick to jump on the US for being stupid when they themselves don’t know what the f**k they’re talking about.
I’m Australian :3
Problem economies?
You’re Australian
How are the floods going?
Win.
I’m Irish, and am very amused by this whole thread =)
Look dude, just cause we got a better social net and universal does not mean we’re socialist. Now piss off and pay obeisance to the Chinese.
Actually I do have to grant that. When a person not living in the united states is familiar with an area surrounding their counrty equal in size to the united states, and is, in fact, more familiar with it than a US citizen is with the US; then they have the right to gloat.
Note that I am not saying that Europeans are or are not more familiar with said area.
Thank you Phil for stipulating US and US citizens. Yes they are Americans, Enaud, but so are hundred’s of millions of others on both american continents. Let’s not sede them the whole of it, even if it is just in common speech.
“Crappy socialist wastes”? Really? That’s funny, since they seem to be doing better then we are at the moment…
Thanks Capitalism!
I’m sorry I can’t hear you over the sound of Chinese Human Rights
It’s the noise of American jobs flowing to China.
If you knew half as much as you think you know, you’d know that the Chinese import market gains were at the expense of other Asian countries like Vietnam, rather than displacing American jobs.
Then perhaps American politicians should stop moaning about China stealing American jobs. Confuses the heck out non-economists.
i’ve gotta say, i was with you until the “fixing their own crappy socialistic wastes” part. The “socialist” european countries are doing much better, on average, than us capitalist ‘mericans.
That’s because European nations don’t have to pay for militaries – the US protects Western Europe.
And Eastern Europe was socialist, and is busy fixing their socialist wastes. Western Europe is just going to financially implode.
No one is forcing the US to have bases in Europe or for that matter anywhere else in the world. The US likes having bases all around the world. The US could leave Europe, but it won’t. Europe takes advantage of that. Deal with it.
Western Europe is actually dealing with it’s problems. Germany is one of the healthiest economies in the world. Scandinavia is fine as well. And France and the UK are actually trying to deal with their problems now, instead of delaying them for later like the US.
Wow, props to you for stopping to eat fastfood long enough to write this dumbass rant. Maybe we wouldn’t be so self-involved with our own problems if you guys hadn’t caused a worldwide financial takedown , of which the scale Is only now starting to diminish?
And europe = socialistic ? Really dude?
If the largest state in Australia was a country it would be about the 10th biggest country in the world.
Ok, USA are larger, but Las Vegas and Washington are some of the largest cities in the USA. So every american should be ashamed about knowing nothing about this cities. I agree that not all Americans are dump, but if you say Europeans to be self-involved, ignorant a$$holes, you arent better than the these Europeans.
And yeah, LOL Americans XD
Except that’s a photoshop. Of the DC wasteland. Which is on the East Coast, waaaaay the hell away from the Mojave Desert.
Problems, Europeans?
Okay people that is actually a picture of the D.C. ruins in fallout 3 due to the fact that this is on the intro to fallout 3 and fallout 3 takes place in D.C. not vegas, not the obelisk in front of the Luxor, that and the little fact that I live in Vegas and would freaking know lol
dude, it IS the Washington Monument….the snapshot is taken from Fallout 3, with the Las Vegas sign shopped into it……so the American was right and the European was wrong here…..
If you’re that smart then why does a Swiss girl have to teach you the difference between “then” and “than”? “Then” refers to time while “than” is used in comparisons.
btw, I find it insulting too that Americans in general are called stupid. After all, America consists more than just the United States…
shame on me, I lost an “of” on the way.
Hey you’re Swiss, you’re supposed to be neutral. Now go make a sammich.
See this is why V was born in the UK (I think)
Yes, us Europeons are self-involved pricks, but GOD some of you Americans are fking RETARDED!!! Now i’m not saying that all americans are derp’stupid, but….
True fact: the US has the biggest procentage of mental retardnes, autism and other mental disabilities in the whole fking world. – Food for tough.
Good lord the irony in this post is mind boggling.
Forgive me if I’m wrong, but ‘some’ is not equivalent to ‘all’. The stereotype of us Americans is that we are all obese, stupid, and lazy. Even if we have the highest percentage of mental retardation, that’s not to say all Americans are that way. America also has a system for taking care of the mentally retarded, which could be the reason why we have so many; we don’t allow nature to take it’s evolutionary course. That’s not to say nowhere else does, because I’m not going to research that at this time. Speaking of research, if you are going to redundantly say ‘true fact’ and post an offensive message, it would help to quote your source. I have trouble accepting that ‘true fact’, because I see no research indicating that it is, indeed, true. Now, call me an idiot for being American, but I believe everything I stated here is perfectly reasonable, logical, and not flagrantly rude.
As my subordinate Capt. Obvious stated, without a TRUSTWORTHY source your “fact” is unfounded and invalid. As it stands, your comment can only be regard as bias slander against a country which you may not have even been to. You don’t state whether or not you have been to America so this idea is implied. Also given that the population of the United States is more than half of the total population of all of the countries in the European Union (US is ranked third largest population), it stands to reason that we would have a larger number of mentally handicapped people than any other country in Europe, even if we had a lower percentage. (Information: epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu and countryreports.org/United States of America.aspx and factfinder.census.gov/servlet/SAFFPopulation?_submenuId=population_0&_sse=on). And unlike my subordinate, I’m not going to be as polite. NYEH!
Food for thought:
-America is TWO CONTINENTS, not just the U.S.
-You managed to miss a comma, not capitalize I, didn’t capitalize A in American, misspelled PERCENTAGE, forgot “retardness” isn’t even a WORD, AND you misspelled THOUGHT—and you call US “stupid”.
-You managed to throw us both (Europeans and Americans) into two ignorant stereotypes—so you AGREE all you are is a self-involved prick?
Hate to say this, but congrats, you managed to look stupid yourself. I wouldn’t throw people into stereotypes like that but dude, you definitely are in the “has something shoved up their ass” category. Good thing you’re not afraid to show it. Oh, forgot to add: I’m a 14 year old girl who happens to Hispanic.
Can I give you high five? Ah who cares, I am giving you a high five anyway.
You definitely proved your political knowledge by pointing out that Europe has still socialistic countries… OH WAIT! That was before 1990. I’m sorry that American public schools can’t afford school books which are up to date, like European schools do…
Unfortunately for you, it seems at least the Americans would be able to read them, while it would be more difficult for you guys. The U.S. is among the top countries for literacy, while Europeans, despite the stereotype they try to project onto the U.S., tends to have some issues with literacy:
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/edu_lit_tot_pop-education-literacy-total-population
says the guy from the country in which if you’re poor and sick, you die.
Socialism yeah, true, are you talking about that thing that gives you free social security and helps you live decently, or the USSR ?
By the way, most (if not all) European countries have had right wing party leaders for at least twenty years.
Oh snap ! I did it ! I just ignored the picture and commented on someone else’s silly remark, killed the fun !
But yeah wouldn’t surprise me that there’d be a washington’s monument in Las Vegas xD !
This guy is full of win
and lol dumbasses like you and enaud making fun of people for being correct
How’s it going there in Europe/Asia/wherever the hell you’re from?
i am american!
good for u mate
Uber troll has trolled uberly. P.S. for all future people, sarcasm does not transfer through the Internet
cause we Germans r awesome like that
You realize that German was wrong, ya?
It’s a picture of Fallout 3 (Capital Wasteland) with the New Vegas emblem photoshopped (poorly) onto it.
Agreed. This is a screenshot from the opening sequence to Fallout 3. This image was likely fan art created when they first anounced New Vegas. OP was correct.
BANG !
Yah, I recognized that too. Well, the second motivator could be a (surprisingly effective) attempt of über-trolling.
And would you PLEASE stop with the patriotic fighting stuff? It’s good to be proud of your country, but that kind of stuff that starts wars, you know.
WHO
gives a f**k?
you know what Germans are not awesome at?
….winning world wars.
HA!
Don’t mention the war.
Seconded.
Too late for that now.
f**k!ing lol’d
WIN! xD
It’s a well know fact that Germans love David Hasselhoff.
It’s also a well known fact that Germans are quite anal.:)
It´s also known that Germans like chucrut.
it’s also known that germans know crap about photoshop
And we all know what that means.
It’s also obvious that i’m a C-C-C-Combo breaker!
I’M GONNA GET A GERMAN GIRLFRIEND!!
It’s also a well known fact that Germans quite like anal.:)
Pretty much every male I know does.
Only Americans think we like David Hasselhoff, but there’s a reason why he moved to America.
And not just for sloppy cheeseburgers.
It’s also a well known fact, that germany effectively inserted a spy into americas entertainment industry…who later on became governor of a state wreaking havoc in said state.
Now, what was once known for botox and Filmstars…is known for Fires, inability to pay and most importantly mexicans.
And that’s only step 1 of our plan to destroy america from the inside…we still haven’t forgotten D-Day!
Schwarzenegger is Austrian, not German.
burn
WIN!
Well, that belonged to the German Reich, too
so was Hitler
Well it sure does look exactly like the Washington Monument from FO3, with the exact same damage and everything, so even if we accept that it’s the Luxor Hotel’s obelisk (which, incidentally, is not present in the game), somebody in Bethesda’s marketing department was lazy.
Actually, that is the games representation of the Washington monument.
It takes any idiot to slap on a fake sign that says “Las Vegas” onto a still from Fallout 3.
actually that is the washington monument. that shot is from fallout 3, set in d.c.
someone just shopped in the vegas graphics
but yeah, lol, germans
I like how this is a shot from Fallout 3, not New Vegas….
Is it me, or is that actually Fallout 3, not New Vegas, so the whole thing is a fail?
Idiots, both! http://cheezburger.com/View/4347196160
It´s not about the screen at all , just about the “Las Vegas …”
Btw. I´m on the MAIN
My case is made.
HAHAHA
You’re right, but I need no German to tell me about FO3 and it’s sequels.
The screenshot is from FO3, but the logo is shopped on top of it and is from FO3:New Vegas.
I just left the line “german blabla” there because I wanted something to repeat. Although its true, of course.
Well, but it’s not even the New Vegas Logo. lol
Making a motivational, just because some ass made a wrong photoshop is just boring…
the logo is not from new vegas that is a famous sign thats actualy at the real las vegas
I concur.
Uh, that’s just a screenshot of Fallout 3 with the Las Vegas sign poorly shopped in front of it, it’s not even the New Vegas sign. So you both fail.
That image is taken from Fallout 3 which took place in Washington not Fallout: New Vegas. So fail for both of those demotivationals.
Also the sheer irony of Yurka’s comment just created a rift in the fabric of time somewhere…
Do Germans not have apostrophe’s?
Actually, no. And Germans most certainly don’t have them for plural nouns.
‘course we have apostrophs, we just don’t use them as excessively as you do.
It is not a plural noun, it’s possessive. It is the obelisk of the Luxor.
Apostrophe’s what?
If you’re going to comment on apostrophes, use the damned things correctly. You didn’t need that one.
Actually, the main image is taken from Fallout 3 and that is the Washington Monument. then someone pasted a Las Vegas sign over it, mostly likely a fake homemade promo for fallout 4: New Vegas.. THIS AMERICAN 1 – Germans 0…
its not fallout 4: new vegas its just fallout: new vegas
lol “why does a german have to teacch you that” AHAHAH
The German could spell “teach”.
every idiot knows that at some point of typing you will make a typo, i guess that makes you retarded.
Well, technically, that would still make you the idiot, dear. If every idiot knew that, and you’re the one to mention it, then that makes you the idiot. By not accepting your typo as a common error, silrath eliminated his/her self from being able to be labled “retarded”, as you so carelessly tried to do.
Also also, the Hotel Luxor is not in New Vegas, not even the ruins of it or a similarly named casino that looks like it. And no, the Ultra-Luxe does not look like it either.
the ultra lux looks more like the Rio, now that I think about it
i swear this is the picture from fallout 3, in which case that would be the washington monument
You realize that is the washington monument right? It’s a picture from fallout 3 with a las vegas stamp on it.
I´m on the Mainpage =D
THX guys =)
Congratulations!
With a really bad Demotivator that shows you don’t know Fallout at all, congratz I guess…
Fyi incase you didn’t read the other posts about it, that’s a screen cap from Fallout 3 with a Las Vegas icon shooped on to it… it’s not even the New Vegas logo, so that building is the Washington Monument
Just in case…
Actually Germans are wrong here. That’s a poster for the video game Fallout 3, where the destroyed Washington Monument does exist in the game. But it’s made to look like Fallout Vegas, where the Luxor Hotel does not exist.
You’re right! That IS the Washington Monument! And do you know why?
Because that is WASHINGTON.
What a fail of a Demotivational.
what a fail of being german
The graphic itself is from Fallout 3. Which was in DC. The Vegas sign – from the next game in the series – is superimposed on top.
Thank god not everyone here is not a moron its a photo shop used by people to draw people on to their you tube videos for a sneak peek at fallout new veges before it was released it was used to troll and now it seems the idiots have come out in droves to fall for it again .
Actually… no. He is a moron.
That’s a real life Vegas sign. The new sign is NEW Vegas. Not LAS Vegas.
wasn’t the first poster talking about the how it says las vegas and how there is a washington monument in the background? not where the sign is geographically located?
Seems about right, does looks like the OP was picking fun at bad logo/picture combination.
exactly, it was meant to be a sarcastic caption (apparently)
Oh, and by the way… did you know this is from Fallout 3 and really IS the Washington Monument? I don’t think it was mentioned yet ;-P
Vegas doesn’t have that kind of architecture, I mean what it looked like before it got ruined. Trust me, I LIVE in Vegas.
Germans, proof that Americans aren’t the worst at placing foreign monuments
Just the worst at finding countries on maps
Wait…. Foreigners have monuments?!¿¡?!¿!?¡
Obvious shop is obvious. You can tell by the pixels. And that it’s also a screencap from the Fallout 3 intro & trailer.
Ok, all of you idiots
1) Yes that is taken from Fallout 3
2) The Fallout: New Vegas logo doesn’t look like that, that’s the Las Vegas logo
3) I really think the one that made this demotivational, didn’t actually mean it, and of course knew that it was actually the Washington Monument.
Shut the f**k up, all of you
Being front page doesn’t stop you from being an idiot…
Right… so how many of you does it take to point out the same fact?
Considering it’s a glaringly obvious mistake and front paged….
a lot, apparently.
ahh, a voice of reason.
Just because Vegas is a big, famous city, doesn’t mean everybody has to know all of the buildings and what they look like.
It’s not Vegas. It’s DC, with the vegas sign shopped in,
I think he’s referring to the German who’s implying that Americans should know every landmark in every major US city.
Which is like implying that every Berliner should know every landmark in Madrid. After all, they’re about as far apart as NYC and Vegas…
I think he’s a she…
germans are idiots…
Congratulations! You just judged a population of around 81,757,600 people based on one internet comment! If you just turn around, the door to your left leads to further ignorance, and the door to the right leads to some off-hand comment about socialists/nazis. You may choose either one in your rebuttal.
Please tell me you aren’t european, because you all do the exact same thing to america…
i go to vegas twice a year and had no idea that the luxor had an obelisk…heck i even stayed at that hotel once.
yea I live here and never really noticed it it is in the front and pretty small, its right in front of the replica sphinx entrance thing
Been to Vegas many times. That’s the Washington monument. The Obelisk at the Luxor is tiny, nowhere as big as the one in the image. Plus there is nothing like the architecture of the other buildings anywhere near it, or in Vegas at all to be honest.
Fallout is a terrible RPG.
you’re nub
best game out
troll fail.
hey geuss what? SHUT THE F**K UP CHARLES!!!
I’m a Filipino…
Why the heck are there 1000 people telling the same s**t over and over again?! I think we got it: Its a Fallout3 screen! Playing in Washington! It’s shopped! … Holy smoke we got it already!
There is no such thing as a Luxor obelisk, the Luxor hotel is a pyramid, like the ones in Egypt.
yea there is actually in front of the Luxor I would know I live here
Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but, that is a still from Fallout 3 with the Fallout: New Vegas logo ‘shopped onto it… just saying…
That’s not the Fallout: New Vegas logo, idiot
This sucks. That’s a Brotherhood of Steel Paladin in the Fallout 3 intro in Washington D.C., with the Welcome in New Vegas sign pshopped onto it.
stupid americ**ts …
Misogyny and crass generalisation. Nice.
you’re all idiots this was a promo for New Vegas that used a shot from Fallout 3
You’re the idiot, because there was NO promo for New Vegas that used shots from FO3, and because THAT’S NOT THE NEW VEGAS LOGO
yea mate that is the actually sign in front of Las Vegas the New Vegas is different.
A German feeling superior? That must be a first~
They have to do stuff like this to make themselves feel better after the blow to their self esteem, upon finding out that Justin Bieber has no clue what they are. It was devastating to them, you have to understand.
As I’m sure a lot of people already said: That’s a Fallout 3 poster, with the Las Vegas thing photoshopped in. That is NOT New Vegas
I like how a lot of people know the actual deal with this picture, making the German who “corrected” the OP look very very stupid right about now, enjoy knowing you fail German dude
I think this might be a hint for you to go and play Fallout 3 so you can learn about the game before you make a fail like this ^^
This is a fail on all y’all’s part. I don’t think comments take THAT long to load. 90% of the comments point out that it’s from Fallout 3, and the Vegas sign is shopped in. We get it. Read the comments before posting a new one exclaiming that it’s from Fallout 3. And move out of your parent’s basement and stop playing so many video games.
This is a fail on all y’all’s part. I don’t think comments take THAT long to load. 50% of the comments point out that that 90% of other comments said it’s from Fallout 3, and the Vegas sign is shopped in. We get it. Read the comments before posting a new one exclaiming that 90% of comments say it’s from Fallout 3. And move out of your parent’s basement and stop being a jerk.
@Steve : Dude, it’s from Fallout 3.
Then, the guy who photoshopped the picture should have taken the real sign from the game Fallout New Vegas :
http://images.wikia.com/fallout/images/a/a6/FabulousNewVegasSign.jpg
Hey Germans, you lost something………..
WWII
….and this demotivational
just wait for the third WW when they join forces with china and we have to work in their weird restaurants with beer n chop suey
At least losing WW2 made Germans humble and aware of their own human flaws, instead of being full of themselves and arrogant.
The USA is the only country in the world that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between.
Do you think that this instance of Germans being dead wrong, and America being totally right is likely to make us less or more arrogant?
I beg to differ. I have lived in Germany, visit periodically and have been married to a German for the last 26+ years. Germans are most definitely not “humble and aware of their own human flaws”.
Really? Because I’m pretty sure that American civilization was about on par with the UK and France for its first 150 years or so of existence.
Unless you’re referring to the transition from being inhabited by the natives to controlled by European settlers in the 1500s. In that case, you would be saying that the Europeans were already decadent at the time of crossing the Atlantic, and that the Native Americans were barbarians.
I think you need a cultural sensitivity class.
yeah, you should like, put quotation marks on that last thing you just said, you know, like, out of respect to the guy who originally said it, like, ‘couse you wouldn’t look like a douchebag then, you know, like, the kind that steal other peoples brilliant phrases and use them as their own, you know, yeah.
I admit, you’re right. I should have done that, like.
Hey Oscar Wilde is great, but I’ll start worrying when the US sets the standard for genocide.
Actually the Germans lose at that, too.
Russians and Chinese beat them – though they used a kraut – Marx – for inspiration. Marxism is up to over 94 million in the 20th century, according to the French Black Book of Communism.
Genocide is the systematic extermination of a specific ethnolinguistic group. The Chinese and the Russians were indiscriminate in who they killed, so it’s really more useful to call it mass killing than genocide.
Sorry, i can’t hear you about my health care system…
And by the way…Vietnaaaaam!
if you want to bring wars into this, I can bring up world war 1 and 2 mate, that comment proves that every country has its ignorant individuals. America has em and so dose Germany the sooner people realize that all of our s**t stinks the same way the better.
And you are loosing your freedom of speech rights as we speak – doing nothing about it
Oh Snap. Germans are stupid. LULZ. Germans think that Washington DC is in Las Vegas. hahaha. Time for them to start begging for an apology.
Where in the first poster does it say that the person making it is American?
Boom. Nailed it. http://tinyurl.com/4z4terw
Actually, thats the Washington Monument. It was in Falout 3.
I think the original caption was a troll, and DrDante fell for the trap perfectly.
That or whoever photoshoped the original picture is the troll.
Arrogance……. not restricted to America anymore.
Considering all the self-hating Americans on here, you’d be surprised there’s any at all. If anyone isn’t a self-hating American, they might see how swaggeringly arrogant the rest of the world is – a bunch of snots with short-man’s disease.
Except for Peru, Honduras, and India. They cool.

Hey, where was that video game made, anyway?
Oh, that’s right – it’s from Bethesda studios in Maryland, USA. Why don’t you go pet your monkey, Dieter?
Too bad the hotel Luxor doesn’t have an Obelisk. its just the pyramid, an oasis, and a Sphinx.
providing the luxor is not even in new vagas makes it even better
actually, you should all be ashamed, or admit you never played fallout 3 – BOTH the washington monument AND the building next to it with the leaning women ARE featured in fallout 3. This was likely someone’s shameless photoshop attempt at having to get recognized… throw new vegas overtop of a 3 image…
Contrary to popular international belief, not all Americans have been to Vegas. Or D.C., LA, the state of Florida, or NYC for that matter.
I shall settle this once and for all.
Indeed there is a monument like that in Vegas, however have some promo art for Fallout 3:

Settled? U MAD?
The Germans need to learn something. C’mon dum dum, send us your bonze.
Because we Americans don’t get any paid time off and can’t afford to go on vacation.
No, that’s the Washington Monument. For those who are dumb, the Fallout 3 game was set in Washington D.C. The Monument is even in the game.
Some lazy PR person used a shot from Fallout 3, stuck the new “Las Vegas” logo on it, and went to lunch. It’s just lazy workmanship.
EPIIIIIIIIIIIIC
Troll.
Phtotoshop:
Proves everyone’s and idiot.
stop this f***in shit about germany and america, both sides..
just think about it and you’ll see you talking a big bunch of crap..#
1. just because a german guy makes a joke doesn’t mean you can generalize that on whole europe…
2. this sort of which country is the best is crap too, if there would be an americain guy doin this with a german pic would end up exactly the same way…
both countries have dis-, and advantages
so instead of talkin s**t, try to use you brains…
just like I said all of our s**t stinks the same way, all countries are more similar than most think, not something common for an American to say but some of us do realize this, I find the country bashing as pointless. Every county has its morons and geniuses.
All this arguing about countries and economies…
Now, my way of seeing it: Switzerland is superior to everything. end of my point. :O
Hear hear! (: I like Switzerland~ It’s awesome! XD;;
sorry to point out, this is a picture from Fallout 3. FACT
sorry to point out, YOU ARE WAY TOO F**KING LATE. FACT
Humans… they are all the same no matter the country.
I read this and enjoyed your pointless rant.
You’re about 30 comments too late. Better luck next time, big guy
That actualy is Fallout 3, I can tell by the power armor and the door way, so it is indeed the Washington monument.
I’m an American, and I just lol’d at all the fail Europeans who attempted to troll this.
Also silly Euros, if you keep getting anal about how USA citizens call themselves American, what do you wish us to call ourselves? Fail less!
Yeah, epic fail, just 200 answers in two days …

Yeah, Yeah. We have floods and fires every year, nothing new for us. But then you would know that if you were educated with respect to other cultures and countries other than your own. Perhaps a stanza from one of our most famous poems written by Dorothea MacKellar in 1908:
I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of drought and flooding rains,
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel sea,
Her beauty and her terror -
The wide brown land for me.
So you can have your football or soccer (whatever you call it), your basket case economies and your endless arguments about pointless and mundane things. If I have to live through a few floods and fires to call Australia home then so be it. I wouldn’t swap Australia for any other place on Earth.
Admit it, you all wish you lived in Australia! ;P
PS Free to good home – Australian Cricket Team (can’t bowl, can’t bat, can’t catch).
Yeah… America…
I am European myself and to be honest, some European countries are a complete mess. But don’t claim that America is all mighty cause in the last few years, the US goverment did more bad to the world than good.
And anyways. It is human nature to pointessly argue like this… :/
Las Vegas.
Looks exactly like Washington…
Wait a minute…
It’s the Wasington Monument from Fallout 3. The Luxor isn’t in Fallout: New Vegas.
Proof of American arrogance:
They’re still gloating about “Nazi Germany”, while they themselves tend to forgot about the Indians, that two towns in Japan, and, while their ancestors where still part oft the British Empire, the Aborigines…
Who sits in a glashouse shouldn’t be throwing stones! (Translation of a German saying)
just my two cents in this discussion…
That little proverb actually dates back to Chaucer, not a German by the way. Also it is Glass House not glashouse
Except you know…we won all those wars? If it wasnt for the US, Germany would be a s**t hole with just white dog s**t laying all over it if it were not for the US dumping billions of dollars to bring their economy back up after World War II.
As far as I’m aware only two countries, Canada and Australia have indigenous peoples who are referred to as Aboriginal. Not sure how America (USA) comes into the equation?
And on the reference to ancestors; we all originate from what we now call Africa so you ancestral point is also weak.
Fair call on the ‘Nazi Germany’ regurgitation though. Heaven help we mention the ongoing Middle East situation and the USA’s ‘intelligence organisation’. Sorry, I have to end this now as my sides are splitting from laughter having mentioned intelligence and USA in the same sentence…
People, F**K OFF :/
everybody, F**K OFF
Americans, F**K OFF
Europeans, F**K OFF
and all the rest, F**K OFF
stupid arguments, stupid people.
everytime there is simething impling country issues/stereotipes it is allways the same S**T!
uggh now i’m ok
kthnksbai
Wow, that was really refreshing since it didn’t have a patriotic rant or a fact that’s already been stated in almost every comment before it in it. Thank you!
Whoever made the first image in this picture is stupid. I mean seriously, poorly shopping the LAS Vegas sign (Not the NEW Vegas one) and Obsidian’s logo onto a screencap from Fallout 3? That’s just a terrible attempt at being funny, and it fails stupendously.
The retort isn’t even that funny.
It’s because Las Vegas is just a tourist trap and most Americans who do go there are not there for the architecture, just the booze and gambling. Also, they like to model their buildings on other famous structures like maybe, who knows, maybe the Washington Monument.
That’s a screen shot from Fallout 3′s intro scene, and yes that’s DC. Someone just superimposed the New Vegas logo.
But I’ve probably just repeated half the comments in this thread…
The fact that most of the things you claim are wrong are actually good things (Conservatism, our more advanced health care system that DOESN’T involve months in line and euthanasia) and that you think we’re racist when most of our racism troubles come from insensitive a$$holes jumping at the chance to call someone else racist, I’d say you in Europe have a whole lot more to fix than we do. How’s that EU-wide welfare state doing? Tired of the riots yet?
…because sadly, most of us Americans are idiots.
the poster is from Fallout 3. Whoever made this is the idiot.
I love these comment trains, because i don’t have such a sad life that i either
A. Make fun of America and stereotype the entire nation just to make myself feel better even though i probably fit the bill better than the U.S. citizens do.
or
B. Get so gosh darn butthurt when someone makes fun of americans even though this is a humor website that means absolutely nothing anyways.
I could give a rat patooty what the rest of the country is like, i’m not an idiot and i’m not fat SOO….
Whatever to everybody.
I like turtles
I drew a turtle today.
K serious question time why did the German put the question mark last? I know it’s a second language and all, but put some effort into it!
