Bolas 5 #52 September 24, 2003 QuoteIf we proposed that all road signs ... be done bilingually, there'd be massive protests Yes there would be protests...by the PC police Why only bilingual? That's discriminating against Chinese, German, French, etc... Why only official languages? That's discriminating against Ebonics, Klingon, Dark Elf, etc... Why use words? That's discriminating against the illiterate... Why use pictures? That's discriminating against the blind... After all this one simple STOP sign would be the size of a billboard in multiple colors and even then the words would be so small you couldn't read them anyway... Why can't everyone just learn Esperanto?Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

lazyfrog 0 #56 September 25, 2003 no way, all the europeans we sent you were : -prisoners -religious -banned -criminals keep them thank you---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #57 September 25, 2003 Quote-religious We still have an overabundance of these whackjobs...hence all the STUPID freakin laws and idiots judging what people do in thier lives instead of letting them choose what they do in life.. and letting GOD sort themout based on that. Quote -prisoners -banned -criminals No they sent them all to Australia... There is a huge group you forgot about....those who were looking for more opportunity.... and freedom hence our penchant for thinking.. sometimes admittedly.... naievely... that other people want freedom. Some have never had it and dont know what to do with it if they get it. I think far too many people in the world are SHEEP.. and like being told what to do and how to do it..... rahter than having to figure things out for themselves.

vonSanta 0 #58 September 25, 2003 Bah, Amazon. Everyone knows we sent only those who couldn't hack it back in good ol' tough Europe. 'Freedom'. So overrated. 'Tis better to be told what to do by an immoral lord set upon dominating everyone and everything, opressing all in sight. And going to bed with an empty stomach builds character! Beside, the next meal of grass and rotten fruit taste all so much better because of it. I have no understanding at all that some weak Europeans could want a better life.
