Default Way off topic, but it has do to with the French

Apparently you have a problem with that distinction.
It's not about France -- it's about your adamant refusal to see that
you reasoning is flawed.


Jay of Iowa replied:
No, Dan -- it's about your inability to follow a thread. My
reasoning hasn't even started to come into play here -- all I've been
doing is reporting my observations of French jokes in America.
You can deny anything you want -- but your denials don't make the
truth of the matter any less obvious, or any less true. And the
truth is, the French are the butt of many jokes in America -- period.
Anything else you want to read into this phenomenon is *your*
personal interpretation, not mine -- but denying the phenomenon is
just stupid.


I also wrote:
And that's your problem. I'll say it one more time then I'm done
trying to explain this basic logic to you -- just because YOU think
"Americans joke about" the French and those jokes are true while
other stereotype jokes are untrue is simply unreasonable.


Jay rebutted:
WTF? How did you get THAT out of anything I've said? I was simply
pointing out the dichotomy between types of ethnic jokes -- but I
guess that was a bit too subtle for you. Pity.


To Jay:
I'm done.

To anyone with sense:
Am I crazy or is this paperboy just supremely dense?


Unfortunately there are lots of him around these days.
