Russia and China, together at last. "Not a threat", I think I saw somewhere written in that article. Riiiiight... So why are two of the Earth's most oppressive regimes "teaming-up", then? It's like the plot from a bad World War 3 war film.
EDIT: Or, am I just being some kind of horrible xenophobe that can't accept countries other than the UK and US can perform mock war games? You decide on our new lunchtime gameshow: Monkeyshaft!

I know, its depressing. What happened to the stories where Mrs Ecclebert sees her 115th Birthday, Sparky the budgie to perform in Sydney Opera House or an article on how the government want to remove the speed bumps from Cranleigh ourt Road. I hate that road...
I don't think its gonna ever goback to that style - I think the media want us all to be depressed and ready to believe anything.

Not really, I just get bloody irritated by endless dramatising of world events by the media. Can't we have a day go by where we aren't scared into believing the world is coming to an end?

The only positive aspects of the news these days are the sports results, and they are as dull as dish water.

Also, I doubt most people here don't even know how to speak their language, let alone pronounce it properly. At least they've had the decency to learn ours.
Aha, the 'orients'.

Yes, but "Amer-wica"?
r-w?
I thought the w was...the r that orients apparently can't pronounce?

Team America, Kim Jong and his 'Hans Bwix!'
I'm still trying to work out the general gist of that, let alone "Amerwicans"
I think he's seen Team America a little too much.

I err
Hilarious.
And indeed, with my point earlier, I wasn't particularly saying "oh who cares", I'm simply saying as of right now, it's not exactly something to lose sleep over.
If such activities continue and indeed increase in number, then then yes.
It's an unsettling thought as it is though, I agree
