No but seriously, was looking over the CIA factbook and noticed some interesting numbers for both countries.

UK has 60.3 Million citizens, although growth models say the population will start declining very soon. America has 293.0 Million citizens

Average Age
Brits are on average, 2.7 years older than Americans, with the average age being 38.7 years compared to USA's 36 years.

Fertility Rate
Britain's women aren't quite as willing to pop a few kids out as Americans - Theres on average 1.7 children born for every woman in the UK, wheras in America theres 2.1 kids to every woman.

Literacy Rate
America lags behind Britain here, with UK's literacy rate being 99% compared to America's 97%. The US figure though has been shrouded in controversy with news magazines like Newsweek running special reports on the far lower literacy rate than America reports.

Landline Telephones
61.3% of Americans have a landline - or 181.6 Million [as of 2003]
67.6% of Brits have a landline - or 34.9 Million [as of 2002]

Mobile Telephones
85% of Brits have a Mobile phone - or 50 Million [as of 2002 - rapid growth in the mobile industry suggests even more now]
54% of Americans have a Movile Phone - or 158.8 Million [as of 2003]

Millitary Recruitment Age
UK - 16
US - 18

Millitary Expendature
US - 3.3% of GDP

Damn straight. 2.1 babies are the babies you see on Jerry Springer. Ours are a reasonable 1.61. Heck, I say we should all lower it just a bit, we don't want to get too carried away.

Ahh the plentiful wenches of America cannot beat the Randy Somalian tank-women, who have on average 7 children each.

Can you imagine Jerry Springer there?

Oh and believe it or not in Scotland they are encouraging women to have more babies with grants etc. Because the population of Scotland is dwinlding rapidly from constant migration to offshores countries and they think in 50 years that scotland will be a barebones community.

Theres only 4 million scots right now anyway, and the population is decreasing very rapidly.

So i think they should open up a room with Gail Porter in the middle and let us all reproduce freely.

Speaking of Avatars, all these scantly clad avatars are making my parents think that I am looking at porn sites.

I swear one day, I will get a picture of a scantly clad male, with bulges everywhere, and see what the reaction would be.

LOL maybe i'll even write a sociology research paper on it. :laugh:

You're forgetting a few key points:

Legal age for drinking:
USA - 21
UK - 18

Legal age of consent (straight and/or gay):
USA - 18
UK - 16

Number of countries owned:
USA: 0
UK: 53

Which isn't to say that Britain isn't poo. Just that we sodomise drunken young men more than you guys do. And that we own a fuckload of countries to boot.

Well I don't listen to rap at all, but wasn't the album "A Grand Don't Come for Free" by Birmingham rapper The Streets chosen as the best album of last year by most of the major music media?
