A bit of a breather idea:

[underlankers]

How's about a thread where we praise that which we usually condemn?

For instance since my usual posts are America good America win Europe bad Europe lose, I'll give a very different post here.

So how's about it, Talk_Politics? Shall we all devote an entire set of comment threads to talking nice about what we usually hate?

Anyway. 105 Good Things about the Twilight Saga:

1) It teaches kids there's stuff for them to read.
2) The chick who plays the girl in the movies isn't terrible to look at.
3) It stands as an example of what not to do for aspiring writers.
4) Enables it's publisher to support authors who aren't literary whores.

Pffft hahaha.

Don't knock the Belgians. They invented French Fries and Waffles.

They also do excellent ice cream , chocolate, beer and artworks.

Mind you, I also want to express an admiration for American beer, films and certain TV shows, considering the OP's topic.

Are you kidding me, the biggest sight of interest in the entire Belgium is a small statue of a boy who pees into a fountain.

@ #8

Are we talking about Switzerland?

[underlankers]

Nope, the societies that allow hunting rifles but ban handguns (i.e. pretty much the entire EU).
