Question For: America
Question:

"I am on this account not displeased that the figure is not known as a Eagle, but looks more like a Turkey. For the truth the Turkey is in comparison a much more respectable bird, and withal a true original native of America . . . He is besides, though a little vain & silly, a bird of courage, and would ( Read more... )

I think it's a great idea! His national bird also doubles as a delicious meal!

Spain's got the right idea! Turkeys are excellent birds for shooting and eating, and though I'm not interested in cannibalism, the shooting part particularly appeals to me.

(Also, promising, my arse! He's merely going through a phase; just watch: within the next five years, he'll come crawling back to me once he realises how ridiculous this idea of his is.)

No, I won't! And how would YOU feel if I shot a unicorn?!

*as if addressing a small child at first, then slowly changing to anger* Allow me to explain. This whole "independence" bollocks is what we call a "phase." These phases sometimes last a few years, but after that, you will return to "normal" and come back to "UK." You may say you'll never come back, but believe me, in a few years, when you're struggling, you will be begging for me to take you back. You'll be paying my taxes again and be damn grateful for the opportunity.

*doesn't even want to think about a unicorn being shot, but still keeps a stiff upper lip*

That unicorn would gore you before you got the chance.

Choosing an eagle is TOTALLY ripping me off! I mean! I had it first! And then that wannabe Austria had to go and rip me off. How many MORE people are going to copy me in an attempt to be cool??? IT'S GETTING OUT OF HAND!! CRAZY I TELL YOU! CRAZY!!!

So yeah, I think he should stick to the turkey. It sounds like him, silly and delicious, I mean.. courage.. er courageous.

Like, the eagle was your idea?

Yeah! It's so cool it has to be! Which is why you'd rip it off with a white eagle! I know you want to be me but you can't!

No way! I totally don't wanna be anything like you! I've totally had an eagle since like, forever so you must've copied me.

A turkey? Is that like, a joke?

Like, whatever he wants, I guess.

But I love my eagle... and turkeys drown in the rain... Mister Franklin is pretty smart, but I'm going to have to disagree with him on this one.

When you put it that way, maybe he's smarter than he looks. Drowning in the rain, just like this, what are you calling it now, "country?" -- just like this shithole will be. *laughs* Don't worry. When you come crawling back, I have the perfect place for you to stay: in the storage room! *continues laughing*

Francis loves Mister Franklin. And don't worry. If I need help that badly-- not that I ever will-- I'm sure he would be happy to support me.

Do I look like I give a shit if you go to him, even though you'll surely catch some sort of VD religion from him? I could not care less if you were to go to him. You've become useless to me, anyway. Go on. Run to worthless old France. Catch the Cath from him for all I care.
