I never said the Us ain't shitty compared to other places...but it is developed anyways, and we were talking about development. How am I short-sighted? For pointing out the obvious? You sir need to go out more..

Some derogatory comments I could understand in that context; "go out more"?
1. It's "get".
2. getting out more is going to make me think the US is developed? I don't even live in the US.
3. People who say this are always fucking assholes. No exceptions.

Developed is not an absolute term. No country will ever be "developed" to the point where it can stop developing. Your definition of "developed" probably boils down to "US-like", which would explain it. I believe the commonly used term is "More Economically Developed", which is kind of strange when you think about it because economically developed seems to mean being in shit loads of debt with a choice between two possible parties neither of which have a particularly good strategy for dealing with it.

Anymouse's point is that, although America may well have a generally higher quality of life, life expectancy, income etc., calling it "developed" is wrong because there are still many things wrong with life in the US, including things which aren't wrong elsewhere. Don't bitch about it just because Africa exists. You're like people who say "there are children starving in Africa and you're whining about X Y and Z". You've missed the fucking point.

Anyway so what if I get shitty at you for unjustly calling someone a spoilt brat? I call plenty of people worse than that. In fact you should consider yourself lucky to have got off with "short sighted". Seriously, fuck off complaining already, there are people who have been called the following:
- Motherfucker
- Cunt faced monkey raper
- Cock sucker
- Dipshit
- Shithead
- Moron
- Asswipe
- Wanker
- Bitch

And you get all bitchy about "short sighted"? YOU FUCKING SPOILT BRAT!

wow, calm down, go have a chocolatemilk.

I don´t think developed is USA-like, and I meant economically developed which is in comparison to the other countries on earth. Never implied that 'developed' meant that there was no room for improvement either. I meant it exactly as one mean in this type of argument.

I wasn't pissed or being bicthy (not for my standards) I just thought you were sounding like a 1st world cry baby, I've seen poverty and lack of high speed internet is not even close to it.

and yeah there is Africa, it's there and it makes your complaints even more ridiculous.

But you and anymouse have all the right to disagree, and stand for the rampant poverty in USA.

as for any spelling errors just consider it as my charming accent in written form..

Depends on what you mean by meaning.
