germany if it were to join the usa would be 12th from the BOTTOM of richest states PPP GDP/capita
and germany owes usa TRIlllions and interest for defense costs
USA needs to go more capitalist not less
universal health care is evil theft which holds back progress in medical
government paid schools are abominations
guns save 1000s of lives a year
enjoy commy politicians importing shitty refugess who should stay in safe zoen over there in arabs lands
:)

What? Gavino, intentionally or not, was insulting. At least, many people in one community say it is insulting. Personally, I don't care if he uses that word or not. So, why is this directed at me? ... > > It isn't so much anymore, except for people of a > > certain age. > > That 'certain age' is > 1. everyone older than your dad, back to the zeroth generation; and > 2. everyone younger than your son, until the last generation. Don't you have older/younger reversed? Years would be helpful. > [snip bizarre rant] Who was this bizarre rant directed at? > Anyway, this is my advice to you: instead of trying LAZILY and > EFFORTLESSLY to accrue social kudos through the taking of offense on > behalf of others who are not even offended, I didn't take any offense to what he said. That word doesn't offend me. I also wasn't interested in "social kudos" whatever that may be. I thought someone should point out the obvious. Everyone here had wanted to say something to Gavino, but instead everyone had been avoiding saying anything. This includes you. Instead, they kept "beating around the bush." Some people don't get hints. Others are bad at hinting. It took me to say something for you to say something, but you still didn't say something to Gavino. You said something to me instead, which makes no sense. How many times has Gavino used that word recently? Four? > try being SERIOUS and PUT SOME EFFORT IN to posts about your > Forth-in-C or whatever you're > working on. Ok. So, this was directed at me. I wasn't sure. I couldn't tell from the rant. It just made no sense. (Also, your rant must have made Juergen think it was Hugh you had replied to.) > [return to rant] > > People will appreciate that more deeply than they will +1 > of "a view I could get a dose of by turning any TV to any channel and > waiting at least until a commercial". You know that yourself, don't > you? The social kudos you get from such acts are a lie. How did I manage to become vilified for politely and correctly suggesting Gavino not use one word but use another? Isn't it still politically incorrect to use that word now? Are you a proxy or alias for someone else? It sure seems like it. Rod Pemberton -- All it takes for humanity to conquer the world's toughest problems is to hope, to believe, to share, and to do, in cooperation.

I remember watching that Mel Brooks film in the 1980s where he gets caught in uncompromising positions and each time someone yells "FAGS!". We were all like "What the f**k is a Fag?". To us, it's a cigarette!

"Hiya mate, can I bum a fag of you?"="Can I have a cigarette?" The Aussies use it in the same context. The Americans get everything TOTALLY wrong. In Britain, a fanny is a slang term for vagina. In America, it's slang for ass. That could get you into REAL trouble in a romantic liason with an American! * Brit slang for Homosexual :-)
