Americans are a bunch of cunts

[saxitoxin]

Which thread? This sounds like the issue you're bothered with might be going back a while. There's no need to be cryptic- just say and let people judge me.

As I said, not bothered at all. Just answering your questions. And no specific example - just the vast canon of your work.

Symmetry, have you heard of the sitting U.S. state governor who, in the '70's, received 8 weeks of combat training in Francoist Spain with the aim of overthrowing the U.S. government and once delivered a RPG to insurgents with the aim of blowing up Obama's car?

I haven't either.

I have heard of the sitting UK "state" First Minister who, in the '70's, received 10 weeks of combat training in Algeria from the Baader-Meinhoff gang's drill instructors with the aim of overthrowing the UK government and once delivered a RPG to insurgents with the aim of blowing up Queen Elizabeth's car. And is now governing 25% of the UK.

It sounds really laughable, therefore, when you make posts about "growing extremism" in the US or tut-tutt Todd Palin or whatever his name is for once having a bumper sticker of the Alaska Independence Party on his car. Eventually, for some Americans - as they don't have very good senses of humor to begin with - that laughter turns to irritation. Again, I don't care either way, I'm just letting you know why people react poorly sometimes to your comments.

So, you looked, couldn't back up your assertion, and backed out? For someone who doesn't care, you put a lot of effort into replying to me.

I haven't made any assertion. I simply replied to your question as to why people sometimes get ruffled from your posts. Again, you can either learn from it or keep preening about. I don't care either way.

I appreciate your deep and prolonged lack of concern.

okay, okay, settle down

Is there much point in me trying to ask again what your issue with me is? I don't know which radio host you feel I started a thread about, and most posters are ok with me, even when I argue with them. You seem particularly bothered by my ethnicity.

[saxitoxin]

most posters are ok with me

I can't say that my opinions are particularly welcome.

I think you're dealing with an identity crisis. I'm afraid there's not much more I can do.

I think you've read many of my posts, and somehow missed my username.

You are on grumpy s.o.b.

If you don't like that the large majority of people here are from America, maybe you should have invented the internet.

what kind of statement is that?...are you saying that you invented the internet? or are you also generalising and claiming that Americans invented the internet?...if so that's a pretty ignorant assumption

I agree with pedro about there been to much shite in this forum and know I would "pub foe" everyone of you that are in here debating politics and religion....how many threads do you need to talk about the same bolloxs...but I also agree you dont need to read them, the problem is if there is an interesting topic started it just gets lost in all the crap...

also what I cant get my head around is the way there are so many posters in here that rarely if ever even play the game....its a gaming site, what the f*ck are you doing here....

Well, I can help you out with some of that. I, for one, do not make a bunch of threads on the same issue. I make one thread and change the name as the topic changes, out of respect for the community, If you are talking about Americans like PimpDavid, then yes I understand what you are saying 100%.

I think most people participate here because it is actually a tremendously rich source of information. I love the gaming aspect, and I love the forums almost just as much. It's another dimension of this awesome website.

As for my statement, it's just a little bromance thing Pedro and I have had going on for the last few years.

[army of nobunaga]

If that flys, I have a few things to say about 30 nationalitys and countrys... things I think need to be said, things that SHOULD be said.

Just stay away from the Dutch. That's my schtick.

You know... you got me. I have like one funny story about a dutch family, but it is lame and only a chuckle to myself.

You one upped my bigotry... I got nadda. Nothing... They are a damn normal people... nothing strange or funny or weird. They are the British with good teeth and no cigarette stains on their fingers.

You got me on the dutch... even the ole wooden shoe thing isnt really true or funny... no windmill jokes.. nothing. I DONT. KNOW. HelP, ME

Did you guys read the OP??

Pedro was just venting his frustration with the amount of US Political threads here.

Read the title of it. I think PimpDave's style is catching on.

I had to edit cunts outta my signature.. just saying.

cunts.

The word cunts has nothing to do with it. All that matters is if the person saying cunts gets special treatment or not, in the name of fairness and equality.

You must be one of the people it's okay to treat "differently". Welcome to the club.

[pimpdave]

Wait, since when is that word a huge major no-no word? And was Tisha banned, or just told to edit it out?

[army of nobunaga]

Arizonians are cunts

Arizonans is the proper demonym, if I'm not mistaken

I got a warning.. and told to take it out.

I didn't get special treatment. obviously.. if he's allowed to have a thread calling people it.

[pimpdave]

Well, one could argue that since most threads eventually drop away it's a little different that having that word in your sig, which appears every time you post.

The fact that there are 7,620 active American users on this site vs 1,853 active users from the United Kingdom puts things in perspective a little. Don't be a dick, Pedro. It doesn't suit you. I hope a warning comes of this thread.

[TA1LGUNN3R]

I think we can take it.

instead of just giving me a figure of UK users, why not add the Irish, the aussies, the Canadians, the kiwis and a whole bunch of people who you can't count but have English as a second language to see how many non American English speakers are muscled out of this forum by some self obsessed Americans banging on about their politics?

[pimpdave]

I don't mean to frighten you, Pedronicus, but if we don't fight the Tea Party Death Squads here, you might have to fight them over there.

If Americans are a bunch of cunts, and cunts are smelly, does it follow that amerikans stink?

Seriously if you are American and hope he gets warned here.. you are a cunt.


Just like all the cunts out there that couldn't take a 30 country by country line of bigotry from me. Im tired of this soft ass world where people cry foul whenever they get a 'virtual' feeling hurt.

Wimps are all of you.
