I'm getting big spiders in my basement and I don't fucking like it.Quote:

My basement flooded once (and hopefully never again). I'm sure it's nothing like the flooding you get though.
I don't know what mozzies are.
mozzy = mosquitoes
mommy = him?
Saved me answering on both counts. :lol:
Why do you sleep in the basement sometimes Busyman?
Had said daddy at first. Realized that she had babies and never changed the him.Quote:

Its coz' the good ol' USA decided to drop the letter "u" for common use. They now overuse the "z" to compensate for this.
Oh and the proper use of the letter "q" is scuppered sans plenty of "u"s.

Statistically speaking, it's the persons who reported their race as African American, Afro-American, Black or Negro, Black Puerto Rican, Jamaican, Nigerian, West Indian, or Haitian and who reported they were not of Hispanic origin.Quote:

Sorry to break it to ya sparky (actually, no, I'm not sorry...), but arrogance and hypocracy are more your domain.Quote:

Sadly though, your overblown pride and sense of self rightousness has blinded you to the truth. You are your own worst enemy, but you don't even know it. Pay attention to Peerzy's pic of Penn. He's giving you some excellent advice.
where's my ebaums photo with the retarded kid crossing the finish line that said something like "fighting on the internet is..."

I've lost no argument. If this was tongue and cheek then great but then that was fucked up with the fact that you tried to explain yourself and did a shit job of it.
Pointing out that your country has shit stains too does not make me arrogant or hypocritical. By the topic title...your response makes you the easy winner of that trophy. :clap:
As to the argument, I've lost nothing here. Pretty easy "win" of whateverhefuck. :dry:
You seem like such a smart fellow busymam , Why waste time and energy on the flaming posts ? You give credence to the term "Ugly American" . I can understand a point or position one may take, but it should not be a pissing contest . Unless one enjoy's the conserveries ? Life is too short . :)
Can't read through this complete thread to see if its already been mentioned but what about humility? Have they got that?
Don't forget I mentioned objectivity too. :)Quote:

But you were too puffed up by arrogance and self rightousness to pay attention.
I also attempted to get you to use objectivity... but time and again, you refused to even try.
Everytime somebody posted with a different view or taste, you stamped all over it with torrents of foul language.
Even those who simply like to watch movies with subtitles weren't safe from copping a serve. Intolerance and arrogance from you.
You've tarred the people who've disagreed with you in this thread with the same brush. You've repeatedly disregarded thier right to have a different view to yours. Instead, you've rudely and loudly proclaimed that just because they don't agree with you, that they either talk :shit: or have :shit: for brains. A clear display of total arrogance on your part.
You've also said yourself that you hate people who lump groups together, regardless of whether individuals within that group are guilty or innocent.
But hang on... You've made it plain that you think that everyone who disagrees with you either talks :shit: or has :shit: for brains.
So that makes you an arrogant hypocrite - you are, in fact, no better than the very people you despise.
See, now here's the thing: I've already said I was talking about the leaders who represent your nation - not the general population. You, in your arrogance, dismissed that distinction as "convenient".Quote:

So with one short sentence, you again demonstrate your own arrogance and hypocracy.
I've proven that statement to be false many times now. See above proof, and further proofs in your own posts and behaviour throughout the course of this thread and sundry topics in TDR.Quote:

I don't care that you're too proud to admit it in public, but at least be true to yourself... :)
