Teamedup Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 I've only glanced at the site, don't think it's 'funny' though, it hits the spot and is very very good and I hope that the link doesn't get PC'd out.Some times things just need saying and they seem to be saying it how it is. Great find TK TU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkfluff<P>Big Wet Drops and Lots of Them, Are a Sure Sign of Rain!<P> Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 If you go on the forum part The term "trailer trash" comes to mind for the scum that take part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Badly written drivel, probably racist in any sensible use of the word, and, as PF says, populated by trailerpark trash.How did it 'hit the spot' TU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Because it wasn't pink fluff, and for me that is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty Korrigan Posted September 27, 2005 Author Share Posted September 27, 2005 I love the avatars! Although the content is more like a political 'Derek and Clive live' the anger and hate are so very funny... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Anger and hate, in my opinion, are never funny. You can laugh at this rubbish as much as you want, I just hope that it's never you on the receiving end. Probably wouldn't find it so amusing, then.So, TU, you can insult and lie as much as you like if it reinforces your prejudices? Hmm. Had that problem in Germany a while ago...Not big and not clever.

Coco Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Have to agree with Dick here. I could get over the obscenities if it wasn't just a site full of badly written drivel. It seems to me that the contributors are totally unable to string a sentance together and that's probably why they link phrases together with plenty of F***s and C***s - they have a serious lack of any other kind of vocabulary.

Lori Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Looks like a site that just tries to get people going. Life's too short for that kind of stuff.I feel sorry for anyone who actually feels the kind of anger and hatred that appears on that site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkkent Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 A sad indictment of American education and media influence? I don't know. But I do know Americans who would be horrified by the drivel found on this site.Why, in the "land of the free" is it necessary to HATE so much? Particularly since about 90% of Americans never acquire a passport and never experience the rest of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I am American and I think the site is awful. Not all Americans have brains the size of peas, but, sadly, many do. Its a big country.This obsession with French bashing is embarrassing. It shows an extreme lack of intelligence. And as stated earlier, the limited vocabularly of using mostly foul language supports my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatred and ridicule is not an exclusive product of the US. This thread and forum are at times examples of this. I'm sure that you will find it in most forums anywhere and in any language. Judging a nation by people such as these is ignorant in itself. **Particularly since about 90% of Americans never acquire a passport and never experience the rest of the world.**I have always been curious why Americans who don't travel abroad are criticized. America has two oceans, the Caribean, the Gulf of Mexico, The Rocky Mountains, vast deserts, the great plains and as many cultures as Europe. It is 1000 miles North to South and 3000 miles wide. Some of us are more curious about foriegn lands and cultures but that doesn't mean we are in any way superior nor those who don't are somehow inferior. For instance, I couldn't care less about Asia or Australia, but so what?The website is disgusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaligoBay Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 LOL, this site is actually quite harmless compared to some I've seen, AND it displays a better knowledge of the country's problems than many who are planning to move here from 20 miles across the Channel.There are so many areas of valid discussion - the first post alone covers intensive pig-farming, over-rated restaurants, the decline of the wine industry, and the 11% unemployment rate. Then we move on to the ludicrously high suicide rate, and then Sarkozy's radical plans for keeping an eye on those naughty Muslims. And business restrictions, and strikes, and all sorts of things. There's truth in all of it - yes, even the story of the man who kept his mother's corpse in his flat, and he's not the only one either. Of course its presentation is bigoted, the name kind of gives you a little clue, non? And you know, if I had a euro for every time someone here has said to me "You're working with an Arab? Watch out, he's probably a terrorist", I'd have quite a few euros by now!Ah well, thanks for the laugh! If nothing else, you've given us the chance to feel jolly superior, what?

BJSLIV Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Having had a quick look, and without passing judgement , it does seem a peculiar site and to dismiss it as rantings of trailer trash is a bit inaccurate. Underneath the shouting some of the comments show anl above average knowledge of France.Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty Korrigan Posted September 28, 2005 Author Share Posted September 28, 2005 There is an article called 'Rosbifs and Frogs' about those who choose to live in each others countries. The responses are quite good... along the lines of 'The brits work hard to buy France' I have to say that we Brits are an asset to France and that they should be damn gratefull to us for enriching their economy and doing up their ruins.

France isn't exactly run by tyranical monsters who murder their own people on a whim and dominate the nations with fear and radical religons. You don't think they are a threat to you . . . . we do. Eight and a half million Iraqi voters agreed with us. No more discussion on this, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viv Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 please don't tell me what I can say or not.And please don't tell me that the US don't dominate nations (always weaker and smaller ones ) with fear!

Miki Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Ray doesn't do discussion. He knows that the Americans are clearly the worlds "peacemakers", they just do it in a way that one might not easily recognise, or indeed, certainly in a way that many, many millions would not agree with.
