Here's a quick joke to show the incompetence and pompousness of Americans:
A transcript of a radio conversation between a US Navy ship and Canadian authorities, in 1995.
Americans: "Please divert your course 15 degrees North to avoid a collision."
Canadians: "I recommend YOU divert your course 15 degrees South to avoid a collision."
Americans: "This is a captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course."
Canadians: "No, I say again, YOU divert your course."
Americans: "THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH. THAT'S ONE-FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER-MEASURES WILL BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP."
Canadians: "This is a lighthouse. Your call."
Diao...
