National Health System Our parliament and Prime Minister's Question Time London is one of the best cities in the world with fantastic museums and galleries and amazing architectureWe have had some pretty sick military victories as well as sick commanders and cool people Dislikes (hates): Class system is very strong here- accents show immediately how much Xk a year your parents earn Underclass sponging off benefits and violent drunken chavs EVERYwhere Everyone tries to screw the system in some way or another with benefits and tax. Even our politicians Lack of country identity and national holidays National anthem School system Pretty average music from our country, always in other countries' shadows We suck at every sport and all of our sportsmen always fail to perform under pressure Culture of repression and cynicism Our media is FUCKING AWFUL and a complete disgrace IRON FUCKING MAIDEN MAN and pink floyd :D and Genesis | ||

First i'll start from the bottom Dislikes : Many hypocrits and very proud ppl (including myself, though i'm trying to get rid of it). Too much immigrations everywhere, i've nothing against them but we seriously first need to control it cauz it's just borderline. Our government are always lying and always postpone their promises (who else doesn't ?). Girls. Yeah sure they can be really beautiful but are a pain once you're in a relation. What's worse is that girls often prefers to be with wrong, rich ppl rather than the honest,loyal,poor ones. God. Whores. Argh. I've so many reasons to hate but won't list them today. Maybe later. | ||

The fact that I'm in an environment that pretty much forces me to learn multiple languages School system is like one of the best in the world People are generally open-minded FOOD. God this is seriously the thing I miss most when I'm not here. How we probably have the biggest concentration of different dialects in such a small spot on the planet? Little country = max 1 ~ 2 hour drive and you're everywhere you need to be We subtitle everything. Its how I learned English, by watching the Simpsons. Fuck dubbing! Its easy to earn money as a student. Public transport gets you pretty much anywhere. Drinking age is 16! Dislike: That there's so much bullshit going on between the Flemish and the Walloons. Fucking politics. The weather can suck hard. We dont have Burger King  (Well, to be correct: we have one. Inside the freakin Nato base. Which I cant really go to. Damn them.) | ||
