Title: Swedes pip Brits in world moaning superleague
Post by: Red_Melons on August 24, 2005, 06:32:33 PM
Dear Sir/Madam,

I wish to complain about the low number of threads about the Swedes and their habits ...

The Register (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/08/24/complaining_poll/)

Quote
Brits have been pipped to the post in an international poll to determine which nation does the most complaining - by none other then the obstreperous Swedes.

The NOP world probe of 30,000 whiners showed that a stunning 41 per cent of Swedes complained about a company or organisation in the last 12 months. The UK managed just over a third of pollees admitting to giving forth, narrowly beating the whingeing Aussies into third spot with 30 per cent.

 :roflmao: No wonder I thought I had deja vu..

Let the Swedes be #1, us Brits are still #1 at queueing. The US tried to deprive us of that with the $50 ibook sale but we bravely fought them off with a petition and a concert in a park somewhere (featuring has-been one hit wonders that everyone had forgotten about.)
