AdmiralPrune That is so true! I remember being a kid in school and learning about the War of 1812. I learned how the Brits handed the US military it's ass back in a hat box not once, but 7 times in total, despite the US military being 10 times larger than the British Forces and having 10 times the advanced weaponry that the Brits had.
Yet somehow, some way, the Brits managed to push the American Forces back south across what is now the Canada/US border ...7 times, after the Americans failed 7 times to annex what is known as Canada today.
What impressed me the most about those brave young Brits was how they were able to somehow pull out and pass the retreating Americans, to then beat the dumb shitts back to Washington where they torched the White House and had it burning to the ground JUST IN TIME for the retreating Americans to witness as they finally showed up in town a day late and a dollar short!
That was the funniest thing I'd ever learned at the time, but in all honesty, things haven't really changed since then on the south side of that same border!
