  • yeah I shout out to chlamydia too.

    WOO

    america too woo

  • Hey, where can i get that song?

  • Είστε ελληνικά; Είμαι ελληνικά.

  • You are as great as your country, ha, ha!

    Thanks for the laugh! 5 stars for this vid!

    'Bloom where you are planted' is a wise message to this world! Lots of love to you!

  • Why is it that Americans are the only ones that say their country is 'the greatest'?!?! The pomposity and arrogance of Americans is so evident by videos like this. America is WAY overrated, truth be told.

  • Sophie, thank you for your comment. It is true, there are SO MANY places in the world to live in that are AMAZING and great. And we are all now so connected by the internet. But when my parents family from Greece many years ago--America was indeed the best place to come for opportunity. It really was. That has changed in the last 60 years or so.

    I should say GOD BLESS THE WORLD now. Bloom where you are planted.

  • Tom, yours is a very honest and fair response. You are right. There are many places that are great to live in. My parents came here from Ellas as well, and did well. But even they now question what America has become. Just one example would be our healthcare system. Our technology is great, but our access sucks. There are too many instances of people 'falling through the cracks' and being denied necessary procedures by their insurance companies, if they have any to begin. We need change!

  • Update time, megalis, now that you've got your weird-ass depression, weird-ass presidential race and weird-ass failed wars down there.

  • A fine American patriot of 21st Century.

  • ella re patrioti :D

  • your the best!!!! :)

  • No, most of us dont want to be yer. We mock you. Why, because you all shout about how wonderful you are and how great America is. It gets old. There is more to being wonderful than just having a big mouth and shouting your own praises.

  • America has it's own air??????? i didn't know that

  • hahaha big shout out to you fellow Greek

  • Seriously this shit is awesome. I came by a link from Gimmeabreakman and I just can't leave without saying HELLO!

  • Well HELLO--and stop back sometime--see some more.

  • USA USA USA!

  • Hail Ceaser

  • your videos are simply gold!

    most enjoyable:D You should definately have your own show!!

  • Now what a nice thing to say Ownage--very nice. Gold is good.

  • shout out to GREECE!!!!!!!! lol

  • Another great vid Tom. My favorite part was when you clashed your knuckles together and mentioned the Civil War, LOL.

  • I can't believe no one from Cincinnati has bitch slapped you yet about saying what you said about their city. Not saying your are not right (I would not know, because I have not been there), but I am surprised someone who moonlights as a chamber of commerce booster isn't crying over your description ;-). Rock on my friend. Another entertaining video... Keep em coming.

  • Hahaha..bitch slapped me---funny, well, it's actually Cleveland and I know from what I speak. I love CLEVELAND. It's a true real honest city--but it is in horrid shape currently. The entire town needs to be bitch slapped--to wake up---oh see, ya got me started---hahahaha.

  • opps... Cleveland.. that was a bad slip up. Hmm... now I remember on 30Rock season 1 Cleveland was being referred to as "The Cleave" to try to make it seem hip. Must have worked because subliminally I could not accept that you spoke ill of it ;-) Where as my 'WKRP in Cincinnati' watching days have left no favorable impression on me of Cincinnati, since I hated that whole decade.

  • The Cleave---ya..haha...HATED THE ENTIRE 70's? Or was the early 80's? it's all a blur for me....actually last week is a blur---

  • you should totally apply to be a partner.

  • You're on fire now, Man...stoke the blaze!!!

  • A lottery ticket and a bottle of Boonesfarm. Very good.

  • ingredients for love and happiness...

  • Great vid, man! As a Southerner though I should tell you that we have indeed gotten over "IT." It's just that we like to wax nostagically that if General Whatsisname had turn left at the Battle Wherever-ville, the South would have won the war!

  • I am so glad the south is over "it"....but i do wonder sometimes how this country would have been different with another outcome...hmmmmmmm

  • Southern culture would have been destroyed as future generations would have been deprived of that waxingly nostagically stuff.

  • Love the video, love the little comedy bits and the voices you do...lot of talent, really gave me the giggles :D

  • OK, Meg, having said my last thing - I haven't lived everywhere and neither have everyone else in the USA, but I suspect I'd have problems just writing frikkin' comments like these in other countries. I appreciate my relative freedom of speech. I do.

  • yeah freedom of speech is what i so appreciate---we can yak about most things--well for now---but i do feel the clamps coming down a bit more in recent years--and the police are gaining more power--but that's another story for another day...

  • Checka your youtuba emaila

  • Victor was right. This is bloody excellent.

    5/5

  • Victor is always right--he's the man!!!

  • loved it....very funny

  • Nice video... must do one about THE greatest country (England)... Don't worry, I know you guys have trouble admitting that you're actually second best.... In fact I'm gonna do that video now... keep watchin'

  • Yes Steve--please do that---I've been to London--LOVED IT---so much history and cool vib--DO THE VID--I'll be watching....

  • i have a dream!

    but usually i forget it by morning

    due to all the drugs i have to consume to get through my day...ironic!

    i meant coffee.....and well....coffee...stimulants!

  • YEahk the dream forgotten by morning--been there--

    then you try to write shit down right away--doesn't help.

  • if more americans were like you it would be a better place!

    quite a freaky... but on the whole a better place!

    i think you managed what youve managed because youve got talent and hootspa!(not sure if thats how its spelled)

    did i mention you crack me up!

    thanks!

  • If I'd have needed any more convincing, this would've been it, my non-blue friend...

    As it stands, I'll be an official U.S. of Motherscrubbin' A resident as of February 12th ~ Hooray!!!

    You'll see me, wandering around in my bowler hat, holding a miniature cup of tea with my pinkie pointing skyward (finger, not penis).

    Things and love, man. Things and love :)

  • Jim--WELCOME---and yeah, keep the pecker in the pants---especially in the south--well maybe South Beach is okay--

    dig on bro

  • mikma was here

  • I live in England and have studied hystory! Without the USA England and most of Europe would have been under Nazi power. The USA entering the WWII saved the world from faschism!!!! If the US hadn't entered the war we in Europe would be under Nazi domination! Thankyou the USA, you saved Europe, and I for one am grateful for your sacrifice!!! We in England at the time were the only country fighting Nazis! And Faschism! The US entering the European war saved us!!!!!

  • Bearing in mind, the USA had major problems with Japan in the Pacific at the time they entered the war! The US stated that the defeat of Hitler had to come before the defeat of Japan!j

  • It's late I've spelt history wrong, oh well!

  • Storm--thank you for your comment. And in the scope of things....true time--that was a very short time ago. So America has had some problems lately--now is the time for unity. And I so hope that the next administration in Washington will reach out and repair some of the ill feelings that other countries have towards the US. It is not a time for "isolation" but Unification. The world has grown smaller since the Nazi's---we must never let that happen again. Good thoughts Storm.

  • Hey you, you patriotic dude.

    God bless america and the Megalis too.

    You take care now and oh yes be safe.

    You crazy americano, you.

    Don...

  • Thanks don--

    hahaha

    thanks

  • America is a nice place to visit but it is terrific to live here.

  • This is REALLY a great video!

    Now, I wished I was in AMERICA, too!

    Evil J (subscribing German evil mastermind)

  • Thanks EVIL---i'm heading over to check out some evil--

  • It's always good to check out some evil - take as much as you need (or can bear)!

    Yours evilly to the utmost,

    Evil J

  • Awesome, dude!

  • Freaking great video, man! I'm your new subcriber. Tadaaaaaaa!

  • I love your song.

  • Hahaha..not much of a song, but thanks..

  • I get tired of the bitchin too! LMAO

    TERRIFIC video!!!!!

    YES!!!!

  • America bin bedy, beddy good to me! ;)

    Yeah, I'm proud to be an American. But- I'm ashamed of the situation that this administration has put us in. We are the bain of the world.

    IMPEACH NOW!!!!

  • Well we are in the process of electing new leadership, perhaps that will help clear up some things.

  • *crosses fingers*

  • Seriously though, America is WAY overrated these days! It's changed, and for the worse. Huge global corporations now rule everything, and our politicians whore themselves to them, instead of working for us! Most families need TWO wage earners to make ends meet. Healthcare is way too expensive, as is health insurance, and if you're lucky enough to have it, there's no guarantee insurance will come through for you. We now invade countries based on bald lies. Wanna hear more?

  • GREECE IS BETTER!!!

  • WORD UP!! Thankyou! I know I would not be where I am if my parents didn't move to the US back in the 70s.

    Cheers, Sir!!

  • Megalis aint done nothin wrong keep reppin america!!

  • Germany is awesome too! The whole world hates us Germans anyway so why should I hold my crazyness back? I can do what ever the hell I want! :D

  • Ain't that what most people say about their country? I am rather critical. And not really proud of the imaginary lines my ancestors draw on the map. And what a person is capable of has nothing to do where he was born. I very much like the US culture, since it basically captures everything. But other than that, in my opinion, the US has many pros and many cons, just like any other country.

  • Ogier was here because Victor told me to go here...

  • right on man, thnx for the vid...

  • Nashvegas baby!

  • Funny and insightful. God Bless the USA!

  • Well you(USA)have been through much shit but I see you got the spirit to dig yourself out of it!

  • You never fail to crack me up magalis!! Great stuff man!

  • *subscribed*

    on Gimmeabreakman's recomendation. Love your stuff so far!!

    hugs,

    Annya

  • Great video, subscribed!

  • THANK YOU!

  • fantastic.Ilove America, my family is from Mexico&Portugal. Where else would a woman like me be able to happily marry a Chinese&Vietnamese man..and have NO problems no questions asked.And you know what we have not FEAR for our future "mixed" children ..we embrace their future dreams and they not be judged for their mixed heritage..Viva America! My grandparents picked cotton in Texas..I don't I run an international shipping Company at 30..ONLY IN AMERICA

  • I'm proud of my country but I also worry about the present financial predicament in which we find ourselves; a financial empire built upon a mountain of debt. We may not be for sale yet but that day is fast approaching. All one has to do is look at how our banks are selling off large blocks of shareholder equity to the likes of China and the Middle East.

  • America has done some great things, sure, but I think you're forgetting the glaring problems that America has also sparked... If you forget them then you are allowing your leaders to walk all over you time and time again...

    If we're talking about music, if we're talking about movies, books, art, everything like that then fine, america has done some amazing things but well over half of those things are born out of counter-culture anyway, i.e. criticsizing the american government.

  • @YellinginMyEar, thanks for your great comments to balance this out.

    Nobody wants to knock America, or any country for that matter, but the way the US senate acts is a shameful display of apathy and ineptitude.

    Would the British Parliament applaud at anything the Shrub has ever orated? I doubt it.

  • (cont...) The reason people dislike america is exactly because of this kind of arrogance, the minute you become completley content with your enviroment and stop questioning your leaders you can throw your freedom out the door. Take a look at England, we HATE our leaders, with a passion, it's almost a British past time, we don't let them have an easy ride and our country is incredibly democratic on par (if not, more so) with America.

  • Yelling...Thats pretty funny. You criticize him for bragging about his country and then you brag about yours. Europeans are so whiney and full of crap.

  • another BS statement by JohnnnyRinggo! brilliant man! dude, whatever. you claim to know what Europeans are... uh huh! sure, we believe you.

    the point is that america has good and bad, but the bad is outweighing the good in the world and in your own backyards. illiteracy, homelessness, healthcare, corruption, inept government. clean that shit up! reality, not whining. the world is waiting for your solutions, not bullshit ignorant talk.

  • I would like to say your borderline racist comment isn't a typical view of Americans attitudes to the rest of the world but then again, about 70% of Americans I talk to on the internet acctually talk like this, and it's depressing. I know it's just the internet and things can get exagerated but it's not a good picture of your countrymen.

  • Borderline racist? Where in the hell did you get that dumbass? Geesh. Yelling...I would say U are definitley arrogant and rather ignorant. Maybe you should take your 20 year old ass and get an education. I am sure you won't be as educated as myself little boy.

  • I wasn't bragging, my comments were fair judgements on my country. I try to stay impartial and unbiased when it comes to other countries I don't live in, but Americans have proven me wrong time and time again, and honestly, I think I should give it up and assume that roughly 70% of you are arrogant, ignorant drones. Should I do that, JohnnnyRinggo?

  • Just because your country is the most powerful, don't assume it's the best. Sort out your spiralling poverty, stop killing everyone, lower your crime rates, oh and stop choking the planet, then we can talk about America being great...

  • Ummm... didn't Britain re-elect Blair after the invasion of Iraq???? I know he stepped down eventually, because he agreed too... he wasn't thrown out.

  • Megallis.

    I have loved your videos, they're little blasts of positivity that fill my cold cynical heart with joy, but this video is mind numbing.

    America is not the only place you can be an artist. America is not the only place you can do wierd shit. America is NOT THE ONLY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.

  • No, AMERICA is not the only country in the world, but it is my home and it has given my Greek immigrant parents and myself a good life... So I am SHOUTING OUT to the place that I love. It is home. And we should all love our homes. I certainly didn't mean to sound like 'this is only place." But lately America has lost some of its luster and glow. And I am saying, for those who love America, stand and be proud. Johhny Depp owes his life to this country and yet he

    goes to Paris---

  • Fair enough man :) Being proud of where you come from isn't a bad thing, it's just a fine line between being proud of your home and just being ignorant and racist, im glad to say you're not the latter!!

    Keep up the funnies dude

  • Thank you YellinginmyEar Appreciate that. I will keep on keeping on. Peace.

  • "Johnny Depp owes his life to this country and yet he

    goes to Paris"

    It's called Freedom to do anything you please. What's your point?

  • my point is---America made that dude---don't turn you back on the things that help make you--after you made it...I'm not saying depp did that---i don't think he talks shit on the usa---he better not, that's what I'm saying...because gay paris certainly doesn't give a shit about JD.

  • And how would you know that? Depp married a French woman and has 2 kids and no, he doesn't talk shit about his country (I met him btw). Are you implying that successful people should stay in their country of birth because if they don't they're not being patriotic? Sorry but that's a load of shit and I don't mean to be disrespectful, your video has many good points.

  • countries change, I think JD probably felt that he did not belong there anymore. He is not the only one

  • America is still the best place to live...and everyone in the world knows it :) This does not mean that I think our government is the best.

  • dude, america is NOT the best place. home is where the heart is and that means any where on the planet can be good, IF you want it.

    peACE from planet earth.

  • Eligarf...that all sounds nice and pretty..it's also a crock of shit. I am sure people in Dafur could make it good IF they just want it LOL. And don't call me dude...I don't work on a ranch you little shit :)

  • the crock of shit is what you just spewed out you ignorant twat.

    if you are representative of the BEST of america, the USA is in dire straights.

    peACE.

  • Johnnny Ringgo

    "Outlaw, Killer, Dog Shaver and Horse Molester ...You name it..I've done it.

    oh that's sweet. hope you are a comedian. you take offense at being called a dude. lol.

    another american JOKE?

  • again @Johnny, dude you are seriously deranged.

    the responsibility of who is in the US government is that of the people who allow them to still be fucking things up.

    and to say what I said is a crock of shit shows you know very little of the true america.

    ever watch the wizard of oz?

  • You'll excuse me if I don't converse with a 20 year old limey kid who doesn't know what he's talking about anymore than he knows about fornicating. It's almost bedtime over there. Kiss mummy goodnight and say your prayers.

  • Sigh... I don't even know how to respond to this! Im happy to have a discussion with you but why have you tried to turn it into a slanging match? Doesn't matter, this discussion has nothing left in it.

    Megallis, love your videos, don't let this spoil your streak of goodness.

  • amen for the HOME EARTH!!!! And youtube is one of the things that has brought us all closer!!! PEACE

  • right on for that megalisstudio.

    earth has a lot of great people on it doing some pretty incredible stuff. let's go there.

  • despite the few americans that bring the reputation of the counrty way down, i wll admit that i would love to live there.

  • NOBODY is bashing america. its the ameriCANTS that are getting bashed and for good reason.

    I was born and raised in america and appreciate all the good things there are to say about it, but seriously, the war raging on is a point the world can not nor should not ignore.

    balance is key.

  • Thank you. This is so awesome! You speak the truth! I subscribed. :) God bless the world!

  • I think I love you.  subed :)

  • Awesome, subscribed

  • thank you mr megalis! Im tired of hearing whats wrong with america. great to hear whats right for a change!

  • ur welcome creegirl====i just speak what i think and feel..

  • Without Amrica, Europe would have been overrun by natzis so I dig you people. Plus you make great comedy, like this! Thanks Tom!

  • Yes people do sometimes forget the great things America has contributed...the people we have helped. Sure we have issues and are stumbling a bit here, but we are still the place of HOPE. Peace.

  • everywhere there is a conscience and a brain there can be hope.

    america owes its livelyhood to the great immigrants who built it and its no better or worse than what the people alive make it.

    what our ancestors did is not something to rest our laurels on. the job before americans is HUGE and the world is waiting for answers, not dreams.

  • I dont think Europe would have been overrun by nazi's if america wasnt there, sure it helped, ALOT but you DIDNT SAVE OUR ASS.

  • Oh really?

  • what do you know about it? did you fight in WW2?

    you americans claiming rights to what your parents and grand parents did are so full of shit. and who's to say the Nazi's would have overrun Europe? that could never be proved so sTfu.

  • Well it's true that it can not be proven that nazis would have overrun Europe without the help of Americans, but I think the war may have lasted to the end of the 40s, or maybe even to the 50s with out their help. So isn't that fucking enough for us to give 'em some credit?!

  • credit given to those brave men and women who actually fought. NOT to the children who refuse to do what is right and kick out their ignorant and corrupt "leaders" of today.

    america's job today is to clean house in DC.period!

  • eligarf...study history latley. This is why I don't think the U.S. should step in and help other countries. There are always ingrates like you.

  • oh your right, i cannot thank the americans enough for the invaluable help that they provided us with in WW2. But i do get a little irratated when americans say that we only won because of them, if you remember, we brits where doing okay before the americans joined in. Who pretty much joined in because of the attack on pearl harbour. But im not here to start an argument, after all. We were on the same side!

  • "who's to say the Nazi's would have overrun Europe? that could never be proved so sTfu."

    ummm...eligarf, check a history book. the Nazis DID overrun Europe or damn near all of it save Russia and a certain island off the coast which was in no shape to take the fight to the continent until the Yanks arrived.

  • So true!!

    I dont know how many people are hating here in NEW ZEALAND cause im a yank!!! Greek yank to say the least!!

  • Thank You! People don't realize what they have! You're the man Tom! You have earned 4 respect points from me! (keep them they dont come out often!)

  • CLod---appreciate that very much. I will keep them! SWEEEET!

  • Amen Brother Tom.

  • Tom, my wife and dog sat on my lap (yes, both at the same time!) and I teared up to see this. Thank you!

    It's a great video! It speaks volumes of truth. Yeah, America's got problems, but we got a lot of great things going for us too!

    Victor

  • Thanks man--i did it right after i watched your piece--didn't even think about it....GO V!!

  • Bravo my good man, I am quit impressed with your performance or rant as the locals say and I agree that America is the the great land of dreams of all shape's and spectrum's. cheerio =P

  • Very sweet---dig that DUde---thanks...

  • I still think Canada is better but thats just becouse I live in Canada. Oh and Ive bin to the USA. lol

  • Hey Canada is great--go there lots--

  • i love the blues, $5 coffee, apple pie, and this video.

  • good job, buddy. nice vid.

  • haha great video always speakin ur mind love it :) <3Samson07rox<3

  • Thank you.

  • awe np :) Keep it up <3Samson07rox<3

  • Now that's how a rant is done properly.

  • America is ignoring it's responsibility for the climate, theyre ignoring their responsibility for the situation in the third world. They're ignoring their responsibiity as a role model in world politics. Therefore America is nothing but an egoistic neo-fascist state which is making the world a worse place for everyone else. DOWN WITH AMERICA. I love your other videos megalis, but this is pathetic

  • You are entitled to your opinion of course. But my family came to this country from Greece and it has been nothing but a BETTER LIFE for all of us. They escaped the NAZI occupation and the horrors that went with all that. This country may have it's problems, but I am proud to be an American and will not apologize for my love for this country. We all have a voice, use it.

  • Seriously what about voting for a better party? A non-fascist one would be great. Sweden(where I live) has a population of about 9 million people and we currently take in more refugees per year than the whole US (whom are responsible for the war), I mean USA hasn't even signed the Kyoto Protocol hows that for a fucking most influential country in the world.

  • Its average-intelligent egoistic capitalists like yourself who are ruining the world.

  • Hey Megalis! I think this is one of those jealous dudes you were talking about :P Too funny.

  • JMowery why the hell would I be jealous? Sweden is probably the country with the highest welfare and justice in the world. Why would I want to live in America where there is no help to get for the weak and the poor?

  • Treue. You are weak. Don't come here...you'd never make it. stay there where the government will take care of you. We believe in self-reliance here.

  • Yes I am by society's standards weak. Since I was blessed with HFA I'm basicly completely unable to get a job which is some way involves people.

  • Sweden sucks. What in the hell do they ever do? Oh I forgot...they whine alot :)

  • you better do some homework Ringgo. you just coming accross as an ignoranTexanotgood.

  • You're the ignorant one. Do you know what lend-lease was in WWII. Remember hearing about v2 rockets over England? You're a dumbass.

  • What has this got to do with what we're discussing? Regardless, I am not disputing Americas involvement in WW2. Calling me a dumbass is proving my point...

  • Yelling...I'm sorry...I forgot you were there. You may go now.

  • Johnnnyringgo, Sweden invented some of the worlds most important inventions. Sweden has among the best technology and education in the world. Whats embarrassing is that the Americans; 1. Dont realize what theyre doing wrong or 2. If they actually are smart enough to figure out the obvious, they dont care. There are exceptions of course, but in general.

  • Defana...Americans aren't smart...we never invent anything...like this very website you are on. Could U give us an example of what the most important inventions Sweden can claim? Educate us. There are alot of Swedes here in America but I guess they just got dumb when they became citizens.

  • The dynamite among others. Keep in mind that sweden is a low-populated country.

  • wow..dynamite.

  • Carolus Linneaus was Sweden's greatest thinker (in my opinion), not only because he started the current system of taxonomy but because he was a pervent who attempted to name everything after the woman's clitoris... a great man.

  • do you really think that with an America in isolation from the world that the world would be somehow all cheery and rosy? Are you truly this naive and ignorant of history, defana?

  • RoninDave, try reading what I wrote intead retard.

  • retard? Wow! That's really mature, defana. I did read your argument and I was not impressed by your "logic" as it is horribly naive and biased.

  • AMERICKERR!!!

  • Love your passion. Great Vid..Ty

  • The greatest place on Earth = America.

    Great video.

  • Yeah, the GREATEST!!
