Exactly. Have you ever read the whole 'Blinkenlights'
story?

I thought it was the British who weren't supposed to have fun. Or maybe sex
- I forget the exact details.

You still don't get it. Cultural stereotypes are little jokes we tell
about each other to have some fun. They're not real, we're just pulling
each other's legs. And it's the job of the one who tells them to invent
them. So for example it would be your job to invent an anti-German one.

Exactly! At last, someone who "gets" it!

OK, you're a raccist fjukkwit.


You're a retarded yank who doesn't get it.

Maybe they should

Level 1. invade naeighbors to southeast.
Level 2 *anschull the next nieghbors to souteast
Level 3 *invade neighbors to east
Level 4 invade neighbors to west
Level 5 **** up everything else and go whining back to the
vaterland.

Tina did that one already.


Tina's German?


No she's an American who did the same joke you did. BTW it's Anschluß.



So now you're invading the language?

I also like this onehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9NUKwHEWEg

But can't you come up with a different stereotype for a change?


I should be asking you that, shouldn't I?


You still don't get it. Cultural stereotypes are little jokes we tell
about each other to have some fun.


Oh I get, it.


You do not.

They're not real, we're just pulling
each other's legs. And it's the job of the one who tells them to

invent
them. So for example it would be your job to invent an anti-German

one.
But you didn't, you just repeated the same old same old one. Lame.


Nope. You just didn't get it.

Meanwhile it's our job to come up with anti-American ones, which is
what I did. It's your job not to get uppity about it, especially not

as
you do it to everyone else, but to lay back and enjoy it.


I'm not getting uppity at all nazi boi.

Just to lighten the mood a little, you might try clicking on this.

It is aviation related, in its way.

The soldiers in that video aren't French, they are Canadian.
