Okay, but let me get to Tunis instead of England.

Umm, nobody was talking to Germany until you jumped into this, and who are you to criticize his ranting, anyway?
Germany: I resent that! Rant...

England: Here's a candy bar for you, go away little boy.

Germany: How dare you! I deserve a medal for not taking my toys and going home when I started to lose. Rant...
