So you can mistake the LA or NYC or Rome or London or Paris skylines one for another? Naaaaaah! Not on your nelly mate, the local architecture's always distinct and different. Ditto the taste in skyscrapers. Ditto the road layout and the interaction built environment with parklands, planted trees, gardens, etc.

You could mistake Paris and Vienna maybe. Budapest, Cracow and Prague maybe. Ditto Luebeck, Bruges and Copenhagen. Ditto most cities in Germany. Most of the interchangeable skyscraper burgs in the Americas and Asia you can definitely chop and change at will. Eastern Bloc architecture has the same universally meretricious taint wherever it's thrown up.

Immaterial anyway. All reasonable people agree that the entire world outside the UK is imaginary.

Because of the simple question: "What reason is there to go to Birmingham?"
The NEC ... errr ... Cadbury World ... errr ... geeky industrial history stuff ... errr ... I'm afraid I don't need any guns made or machine tools fabricated.

Anyone willing to step up and defend the honour of the second city of England (Yes, it is! Shut up and sit down you Manks ). Someone has to fight the corner for the famous home of the Lunar Men and former Workshop of the World? Sure, it ain't a northern city (York, Durham, Newcastle, Edinburgh), but it must have some merits.

Birmingham? I've heard of that. Isn't it a two-hour drive away from Atlantis? ^_^

Your bizarre obsession with driving a metal can in a city that is entirely submerged in water disturbs me.
Besides, Atlantis is a massive spaceship anyway.

Atlantis is in our minds, much like the afore mentioned Birmingham or an anime character with normal hair

Yep. Don't you know that you can draw an almost direct historical correlation between amount of laudanum, opiates and such consumed in the UK and the size of the British Empire? We set our greatest poets and thinkers to imagine an empire of the senses wherein the British could explore aspects of themselves they could not in the real world (ie: Britain). The result: the formless fog of protomatter that surrounds our isles was temporarily coalesced into the world beyond our borders.

Also, I had a peek at my own profile. I disgust me. 13.55 posts a day? What the hell do I DO for a living? That's with, like, a month of collected weeklong absences. I sicken me.

Yours tells you to kill? Lucky. Mine tells me to do stupid things, like break an airplane window to see if it's double paned - while in flight. Or jump in front of a car to gauge how fast it's going.

Not as cute as me!
Or at least, certainly not as cute as I WILL be, once I force Tim to bite me. That jerk won't even do it for money!

Whereas I *have* been to the nebulous ghost realm of bloodhungry shadow demon that is America. It was a scorching, humid wasteland of swamps, alligators, excessive hairspray and giant anthropomorphic farm animals. The garbled honking noises the poor shadowy inhabitants made in pathetic imitation of real human speech would be risible were they not so pitiful.

(Florida: obviously the result of a very bad trip by some poor opium fiend shivering and moaning in the lowest Limehouse dive)

Well, winters to bloody cold you know? We can't get to the post office in 15 degree Celsius heat, we need to wait until it's at least 30.
Also, it takes you all winter to send it anyway...
