    It's posts like this that get you all the little green boxes. I get neg repped by Dickhead for pointing out that the ref is wearing a camera in the Ashida Kim thread. . . .

Again, we complain without understanding the alternatives. Go live in the backwaters of Mexico. I've been there, so this isn't speculation....
        I do believe you, Mike.

        I've been fortunate (or unfortunate...jk) enough to visit and stay in 3rd world parts of Asia so I understand where you are coming from. Also been south of the border. Hell, I've even been to Southern 'bama and Southern Louisiana. Doesn't get anymore tough than that!

            Is that so?
            I'd say that's a load of shit.

            As for the rest, I've got better ways to spend my time than pointing out all the things you've said in the past. You know full well what statements you've made, and chances are, so do most people who've followed your threads.
            If that's true, then you have highlighted the fact that you have a dubious agenda on here!

            Finally, as for banning you: Moderation actions are not up for public discussion, so I'll not get into specifics.
            That'd be a change from the norm then?

            If you were to commit some offense that made us consider banning you, I or one of the other moderators would inform you, allow you to correct the behavior (assuming the behavior was not severe enough to warrant immediate action), and then take appropriate measures from there.
            Wasn't the case though was it?

              TV is back.

              That really is great. It really is.



















              Not.

                I suggest you look into the origin of 'Sterling' currency.
                The UK just finished paying the US for war debts last year.
                The US effectively crippled the UK economy and British Empire, making the UK a puppet of the US.


                That's why I take such nonsense as this whole "Jingoism" thread with a grain of salt.
                What's "nonsense" about it?



                When Troll can explain how Britain was entitled to Hong Kong, Jamaica, parts of Africa and the Middle East, and the freaking Falkland Islands, I might start taking him more seriously in his criticisms about aggressive patriotism in America.
                For starters, I've never mentioned 'aggressive patriotism in America'.
                That is your own choice of words.
                As for what Britain is or isn't entitled to, that's hardly my place to say.
                We might as well talk about the people who are truly indigenous to the US and I strongly doubt there was ever an Apache war chief called Brewer.

                  Here's the official National Anthem for Great Britain!
                  This version has a few more verses you may not have heard before;

                  first publicly performed in London, 1745

                  1. God save our gracious Queen,
                  Long live our noble Queen,
                  God save the Queen!
                  Send her victorious,
                  Happy and glorious,
                  Long to reign over us;
                  God save the Queen!

                  2. O Lord our God arise,
                  Scatter her enemies
                  And make them fall;
                  Confound their politics,
                  Frustrate their knavish tricks,
                  On Thee our hopes we fix,
                  God save us all!

                  3. Thy choicest gifts in store
                  On her be pleased to pour;
                  Long may she reign;
                  May she defend our laws,
                  And ever give us cause
                  To sing with heart and voice,
                  God save the Queen!

                  4. Not in this land alone,
                  But be God's mercies known,
                  From shore to shore!
                  Lord make the nations see,
                  That men should brothers be,
                  And form one family,
                  The wide world over.

                  5. From every latent foe,
                  From the assassins blow,
                  God save the Queen!
                  O'er her thine arm extend,
                  For Britain's sake defend,
                  Our mother, prince, and friend,
                  God save the Queen!

                  6. Lord grant that Marshal Wade
                  May by thy mighty aid
                  Victory bring.
                  May he sedition hush,
                  And like a torrent rush,
                  Rebellious Scots to crush.
                  God save the King!
