I was almost certain it was you Don't sweat it, it's fine - and all of the places you mentioned are Europe. A difficult one would be Russia.... European or Asian?

Gibraltar, albeit real close to Africa is also European. (It's a UK territory) - watch out for the apes if you go there... they tend to actually open your backpack/bag or whatever you have, grab something and just throw it off the "rock". As a victim, I can just say they're relentless.

I remember when I was in London, I accidentally handed a Gibraltar note (50 pounds or something) to the guy at the theater. Even though GIP (Gibraltar pounds) are worth exactly the same as GBP (British pounds), he looked at it funny, and I realized my mistake. I just wonder, though, why don't Gibraltar just use GBP? It's equal to British pounds....

Hello from Newfoundland, Canada. Small province so I’ll be surprised to see anyone else from here.

Great post. Love seeing where people are from.

Haha Sober, I had an employee from Newfoundland once - great guy.. and he was so funny. Used to make jokes about his country all the time, like the time for example. Who else is half an hour off, lol? But seriously - it is stunningly beautiful there and I have thought of riding there on the motorcycle someday. In summer

I'm from the American Southwest near Mexico, the Sonoran Desert. It's the wettest desert in the world, as we get a lot of moisture from the summer monsoon.

We’re owned by a company called Internet Brands.

Me Anna and all the other regular mods are volunteers, not employees.

I don’t want to get off the original topic with this, mostly because I know nothing about that stuff Polaroid

Thank you all for your service! I don't know what we would do without you guys!

Yeah, London sucks. My condolences. Too bad I'm going there next month.

We've reached 100 votes, and I was right. USA stands at 56%, which is over 50%, which I would consider "most". I'm always right. Right?
