I sort of don't want to jump into this argument, but I sort of have to.
Even though I'm not a adult and don't see everything with "adult eyes" I still think that he have a point. Anyway, I've been in a few countries recently, and I've noticed a bit of what clerictgm is saying, if you for a example compare Sweden to England (I live in Sweden), I would say that the majority of people in Sweden seems happier than the people England. I can't give you a valid ansver why, but yeah they seem happier.
When I first got to England (I mean first visit ever) I got really dissapointed in how everything looks, England look really boring compared to Sweden (No offence haha). The build quality is better here in Sweden than it is in England. If you then compare it to the shit hole Russia, I can deffo see where he's coming from. I mean just look at this video:
I lived with a guy from Russia for 3 weeks, and the shit that clerictgm tells you is true...
I would like to point out that even though it may seem like I totally nob England, I deffo don't! In fact I like England way more than Sweden, I can't say why but I just do.
Just calm down a bit and give the guy a break...
