No; Bahrain, Minnesota, 3 hours' drive from Minneapolis.
Is Minneapolis quite well known outside the US? How about St. Paul? That's our actual capital and they run together, pretty much a megalopolis.
In battle, in the forest, at the precipice in the mountains,
On the dark great sea, in the midst of javelins and arrows,
In sleep, in confusion, in the depths of shame,
The good deeds a man has done before defend him.

- It's a straw man because I never claimed to be a “media scholar”, or a know-it-all. As a “politics junkie”, I've had to closely follow the (mainly US) media and countless blogs and news websites. All I said is that coverage of the China-US cyber war is not extensive at all, and that I believe (note: “believe” means it's not a fact, because I know of no studies or polls about Americans' knowledge of the cyber war, and while I've discussed it with numerous people who either knew or didn't know of it, anecdotes aren't evidence) the average American is not very aware of it. I provided the latest study on Americans' views of other countries, and the fact that half the US population has a favorable view of China as a... “hint“, if you will, that the average American is not aware that China is an enemy and waging a cyber war (which is serious business, by the way), among other things, against the US.

- Incog, I usually don't share personal information about myself on most sites I go to, and my exact location is no exception. I mean, you don't even know my name. :/ Besides, would you really believe it? We've been through this a million times, and I can't see any good coming out of doing it yet again.

He said, "I didn't know you were a media scholar." That's not a question.

I don't think so. Perhaps 'sarcastic' wasn't the right word, but it sure wasn't serious. I'm 17. Why would I have a degree in journalism?

if it wasn't a serious question why would he literally say exactly that?

Kill me? No, I just don't like to share personal information with most people on the Internet. It may be illogical, but it's the truth. I could tell you Missouri, or New Mexico, or whatever, but I wouldn't.

Depends on what site you use. Some IP sites say USA, UK, Australia, Saudi Arabia, and probably a couple of other countries I forgot. If I wanted to hide the fact I live in Bahrain, I could've used a fixed proxy from the very beginning. You have no way of knowing where anybody on the Internet is from. If you ignored the IP, it would make no sense that I live in Bahrain. For instance, the country recently witnessed an uprising that temporarily turned the place into Somalia. While shops were closed for days and gangs were roaming the streets attacking people in their homes, I was fervently discussing the AoE II mini-map with Goodspeed...

But, as I said, we've discussed this dozens of times and no good ever came out of it. You can continue to believe I'm from whatever country you think I'm from, if you want, Richard, and seeing that it doesn't change anything or affect me, I'm not going to go out of my way to correct you.

Indigo is the torpid wing,
Raised to catched the wind,
Although confined, the crippled thing,
To decrepitude, forever pinned.

Passerine rise; troubled fall;
Ambitious, she repeats.
But nature governs a creature's call,
And commands that you must cease.

For not all of kind is so inclined,
To imitate a bird;
To imitate the questing wind;
To fly: thrice and third.

May you yearn for sky's embrace;
Aspirations? All a charm.
But to fly meets not Creation's intent;
To fly, to you, is harm.

Huh?
99.999999999% We don't care where you live, nor does anyone on the internet care enough to go there and check.


I live just north of Heathrow, used to pass it everyday almost.
But i know your not going to come to wherever my i.p. address is and stand there like a troll.


Jack might.... But the rest of us won't.

I think unicorns have a higher chance of existing than gods do. I mean, if a mare fell into the ocean and a narwhal raped it, then the mare might just give birth to a unicorn.

No I didn't, media scholar was a hyperbole meaning you know a lot about the media. I was curious as to what your degree was or what you were currently studying if you don't have a degree. I obviously don't know your age. I indeed said serious question. Allow me to clarify. By "serious question". I meant that said question was of the serious variety. If you'd like me to use clearer English than that, please invent clearer words.

Ironically, you've been using a straw man argument for the past page.

St. Peter, which is tiny, was going to be the capital, but people from St. Paul stole the plans so they had to make it in St. Paul. :D

And wtf Chris why would i do that lmao
