Lets not lose the fact that most of us here are friends, or as far as that would go online. I have no problem with Canada. Like it just fine, seeing as how I'm only about 3 hours from the border, and in the summer, there's more Canadians than Americans here in Maine.

IM sorry i know i kinda started all of this off but the topic i was getting peeved about is the fact that because "Have u got news for you" a british show. Maquis just because the show was British, decieded that she would "Think nothing of it". I found that to be big-headed as if she thought Britain to be less important than America
Now to Maquis im sorry to of started this ANTI-AMERICAN air on the forum, and im sorry for my offence to you, but that was my thoughts.

I didn't mean anything by my comment, only that to Americans, British humor is VERY different. After re reading my comment, I can see how it could be taken as a bad thing. Sorry, too.

If your hockey teams are so great then why do american Hockey Teams keep kicking the cr*p outta your great Hockey teams. and why do the Devil's have the Stanley Cup and not one of your great Hockey Teams.
The Only good thing about canada is your beer, thats aboot it.
and if America wanted to, we could march into your great country and take it over. and what do you have in a military to oppose us? A lot of people with hockey sticks and baseball bats. |

"Have I got news for you" that show just became screwed up after the Host Angus Deaton was revealed as Excuse My Language a Pervert! and got Fired, ever since they have earned a meager living from making Political jokes out of Home Videos 
BTW I thought you were from Oz Greg???
On a different note, I bought this ace Iraqi Most wanted deck of Cards the other Day...anyone else have it? it's pretty cool aside from Comical Ali isn't in the set

I could care less, it's the fricken internet, not like someones grading my posts. Special Ed techer? Are you implying that I'm retarded? Or have a chronic health condition? And you came to this conclusion because i spelt 3 words wrong? Thanks, I think i'll go kill myself now. |
No you were not calling ALL AMERICANS stupid, just Southern Americans. Well the last time I checked I was born a Southern American and I am currently a Southern American, and I am not by any means stupid. And i know this is the Internet and no one is gradeing your posts, but you are representing your country, and your one sorry job of it. And No I never implied you were retared had a chronic heath condition, but now that I think about it you may very well suffer from Chronic Retardation in the fact that you believe sterotypes, because I am not your sterotypical Southern American, and Very FEW Southerns fit that Sterotype. As for going to kill yourself, if you would like to borrow my gun, rope, or anything else to help, just ask.

Yeah, as a Northern American, I am sick of the stereotypes about the south, this is the racism of today, and nobody sayd a word.
I find it funny, if someone had made comments about [:Place random race here:] being stupid, everyone would've jumped on them, deleted their post, and locked the trhead. But when it's southerners, go nuts, make fun of them all you want.
Well, Southerners have contributed a lot to this country, and this world. They are'nt dummies, they're just as smart as anyone.

Allow me to quote myself "all the people I met in Southern America are all quite stupid" Allow me to translate, ONLY THE PEOPLE I MET WERE STUPID not saying all southern americans are, but from your misreading my post i'm starting to change my opinion. And because i spelt 3 words wrong I'm doing a poor job of representing my country? And by saying all the southern americans i met are stupid, i'm doing a poor job of representing my country? And yes you did imply i was retarded when saying i had a special ed teacher, are you aware of who they are? What they do? And what stereotpes? I said nothing about stereotypes, now your putting words in my mouth. ALL I SAID WAS ALL THE SOUTHERN AMERICANS I MET WERE STUPID. There is no stereotypes within that sentence, there is nothing about ALL SOUTHERN AMERICANS ARE STUPID. And just for the record there is no such thing as "CHRONIC RETARDATION." So before you defend "SOUTHERN AMERICANS" you may want to make sure that you don't make up stupid diseases or comments about things I NEVER SAID.

Fa Sho, y0!
The irony would be that he (or she) had actually ended up in Mexico and then couldn't understand the English they spoke anyways, since they speak Spanish.
English...
Spanish...
I don't see the difference.
