This Is Not A Democracy, It's A Republic........
Careful what you say, Jenn........Next time you say "assholes" you may hear the theme from Brokeback Mountain.
And if you have DVD's installed in your car, you may get a rude visual
Jenn,
Many people, including the nice guy from across the street, and your last three bosses, eagerly await your thoughts on PP's hilarious comment.
Yeah, because men falling in love with each other is a pretty "rude visual." Can't be having any of that. Unfortunately, the little smiley face you put at the end doesn't excuse you from disguising your bigotry through a simple "Brokeback Mountain" joke. I've heard way too many ...
Hey Will, I wasn't trying to hide behind a stupid smiley.......I admit I can't stand Normos of any kind.
GLBTTBNP's......All of them are sick Murtha"F'ers".
Go to my glossary if you aren't familiar with the acronym:

Well, it IS a free country ...
Morons make the world go 'round.
Not my kind of visual Pero, but I look forward to seeing Brokeback Mountain. Like most chicks, I love me a good love story, and according to everyone who's seen it, it's pretty darn good.
Love ya Pero, but I'm so moderate on that one, it's not funny. But since this is Friday Funnies, I won't get into it.
Besides, anything with Heath ledger in it is alright by me. Mmmmm he's HOT!!!!
Interesting Mad, been to Craigslist lately. Could you be the elusive frog lurker? Hmmmmm.
Anyway, let's concentrate on the real assholes. The French. : )
Hey Jenn - Two things: First, check this out, it's pretty damn funny. (Even if you are a republican.)

Second, Brokeback is a really good movie, and unlike what retards like Pero seem to think, it's not really even about being gay.
And it's worth seeing if only for Heath Ledger's performance. That guy turns in the performance of a lifetime.
Yeah, it was pretty funny, though little of it pertains to me. Gave me a chuckle though. I personally don't know a single Republican who is hard core Christian etc. All of them that I know are like me, and pretty moderate. And considering work I did on the last mayoral campaign, etc, I know a lot of Repubs in San Diego.
I heard he's golden to get an oscar for it.
As for Pero. Will, as a liberal, you seem pretty close minded, isn't it Pero's right, as a free American to say what the hell he want's and dislike who he does?
I for one really friggin' hate lane sharing SUV drivers and assholes who run red lights and almost take me out, especially if they drive an SUV. Assholes, the lot of 'em. Kinda like the French.
Yeah, I addressed the Pero thing earlier. It IS a free country, I said that. But you can't just dismiss everything because people have the right to do and say as they wish. There would never be any debate about anything. In fact, now that I'm thinking about it, what you said is pretty retarded, as well. First, I'm not a liberal, as much as you like to paint me that color. Second, liberals are just supposed to accept bigotry because people have the right to choose their beliefs? Okay. That makes no sense and is a terrible argument.
And, by your logic, I have a French neighbor who is very nice. They're not all rude assholes.
You DO realize that if it weren't for the French, the United States of America wouldn't even exist.
I think that calls for just a little bit of respect, regardless of their current political leanings.
No you don't have to "just accept" bigotry. But, it's not bigotry to Pero, it's what he feels. I don't agree with him, but to call him a bigot.... just doesn't sit well.I'm tired of that word being thrown around willy nilly.
As for your "nice" French neighbor. Well, that's 1. And before you trip out, keep in mind, I've been to France, and met many French here in the states. Yours is the exception to the rule.
Here's a "fun with French" story for you, one of many.
Took my Brit in-laws to Hollywood, Universal Studios. I hadn't been there in ages, so it was kinda fun. Anyway, we happened to go during this horrible heat wave, it was so hot, you really could fry an egg on the side walk, and it was humid too, just like D.C. in the summer. GROSS.
Everyone and their cousins were at the park that day. It took 1.5 hours just to get in the door.
So, we waited for and hour plus to get into this "Waterworld" show. It was supposed to be really cool. By the time we finally got into the seating area, we all thought we may drop dead from heat exhaustion. Got seats, sat down.
Enter the French tour group.
The stadium was pretty full. There were no seats left at all where we were sitting. None. That didn't stop these French assholes from sitting there. My hubby and I were squeezed next to each other, one fat ass actually said, and I quote," MOVE, I am going to sit here." Not kidding. And sat between us. She was pretty ripe, though, we all probably were.
Then my sweet little mother-in-law, was shoved aside by one of the men, and had to sit in her hubby's lap. MIND YOU, IT'S LIKE 100 DEGREE'S OUT, WITH 100% HUMIDITY.
So, they settled in our seats, shoving us actually into the aisle. Then, they proceeded to yackity, yack, yack yack, in French, the entire time. You couldn't hear a friggin' thing.
I looked at one particularily loud one and said, "Do you mind?"
And, I am not making this up, as I clearly remember my jaw striking the metal stairs I was sitting on, he said,"You Americans, always being so rude."
I just couldn't reply, simply because it was so bad, his group was so foul, that I wouldn't have been able to say anything without starting a free for all punch out.
This story is already long, so I won't get into their other behaviour, but I assure you, the Asians three rows down, the Germans 2 row's down, the scattered Americans and my Brit in-laws, all left that stadium with a very ill opinion of the French.
And of course no opinion of the show, because we pretty much missed it all.
Not to mention the crazy French asshole who used to hang out at the local pub. Hated Americans, sat in an American bar, all day bitching about them. Ass.
They helped out over 250 years ago for their own interest only. Not exactly out of the kindnes of their hearts, and I've yet to hear of one thank us for our help with their little issue with the Germans.
This is just silly.
People are people, whether you're French, Spanish, Gay, "Chocolate," Chinese or whatever. There are rude people, there are nice people. There are funny people and there are boring people. It's all relative.
To say you hate the French, and mean it, because of a few circumstances involving about 0.000001 percent of the entire country's population is not a very informed opinion.
Sure, everybody always jokes about how rude the French are. So is it fair that people around the world say you are a fat, lazy, McDonald's-eating, gas-guzzling, crack-smoking flunkee? That's the American personnae in a nutshell. Does that apply to you?
Actually Will, there is a difference. America is a huge country. It has it's fair share of assholes.But......
Been to France? It's more than .0000000000001 percent. Believe me.
Here, this make you feel better?
I dislike the vast majority of French people, in fact every single one I've met, except that one guy in that cafe. I dislike their entire government. Their dog poop covered streets, and the sauce covered horsemeat. And their hypocrasy.
Now, I have been to McDonalds, but not for over 4 years. Can get chubby/fluffy, when I'm lazy, but not currently, and not "fat".
I drive a Matrix, you figure it out.
And I've never smoked crack. Nope, not crack, but I have inhaled other "substances". Green substances. Just not for about 8+ years. Oh, and I smoke cigarettes like no other. Puffy puff puff. Mmmmmm love my cigarettes.
Now, that should make you happy, because I will die a long, hideous, painful death.
That's better.
It's funny, because here's an example of lumping a group together that's sure to piss you off. And it's current, too . .

Read it about an hour ago.
Seeing as I'm married to a Brit, it made me laugh so hard, I think I pee'd a little.
They cook with LARD!!!! Lard!!!!
Jesus, once when the family came over to visit, they went about cooking a full "Sunday Roast". This includes Roast Beef, the fattier the better. Roast Potatos (cut them up and cook them in lard, LARD, for an hour),over cooked veggies; salted until you think you've just inhaled the ocean, and yorkshire pudding, made, again, with LARD!!!!
Then you've got the old standby, fish and chips.
They should be fatter by all means, there's just less of them.
Enter the French tour group.
I know! The French tour totally sabotaged a recent trip my family took to the Cheesecake Factory. Me, my wife, my blind aunt, and my great-grandmother had been patiently waiting for close to an hour, staring desperately at that little electronic gizmo they give you with the red lights and the cool vibrations. Anyway, the lights started flashing and the thing started vibrating and I jumped up with glee. It was our turn, and not a second late! My great-grandmother looked ready to expire -- she needed a double whiskey sour bad -- and my blind aunt had lately been complaining of "a scent of body odor and festering brie." We got our coats and headed to the host station to be assigned a table. Just then, this giant group of slight, dark-haired Frenchmen dressed in dark blue with raspberry berets and five o'clock shadows came out from behind a massive ficus tree. The leader said, "Excuse me my stupid, selfish American friend, it seems that one of you left something where you had been sitting. It is something maroon, I am sure of it." And when I went back there to search for this thing we had forgotten, he apparently whispered to the hostess (a French sympathizer!) that my party was waiting for someone still, someone who fit my description exactly. By the time I had returned with some stranger's maroon umbrella (it was the only thing there that remotely matched his description), the French group had already sat down and was sipping Fleurie while munching morbier cheese.
Damn you French group! If I wasn't an American with all of my ascendant principles, virtues, and family values, I would have explained to them the non-dictionary meaning of the word "Buttwhoopin'" if you know what I'm saying!
Jenn, I agree that all French are pricks! Cezanne? Prick! Check the history books. Proust? Also a prick, and by his own account, no less! Nina Simone did not expatriate to France because of the inhumanity of segregation, as many probably believe. She went there because, being a prick, she naturally wanted to call France "home." Can anyone doubt that for such a small country, France has churned out more sneering pricks and ne'er-do-wells than entire continents put together? Good Christ! Wasn't Rousseau, that ignoble swiss quasi-philosopher who in his book, "The Social Contract," attempted to articulate a vision for government that was responsive to its citizenry, also a naturalized Frenchman? WEll! Evidently, it seems that not only does France create SOB's by the bushel, but it attracts them there as well! This is probably the reason, and not because it was some kind of Euro-mecca for independent-minded artists and thinkers, that Hitler sought to invade Paris in the first place! He, being an awesome prick himself, probably just wanted to raise a family in the prick capital of the world!
Anyway.
Hey Will, I wasn't trying to hide behind a stupid smiley.......I admit I c
Besides the fact that you are a prick, part of your rambling does apply:
"Evidently, it seems that not only does France create SOB's by the bushel, but it attracts them there as well!"
Yup, Johnny Depp.
Oh, yup, forgot about him.
Does anyone remember the French character on Cheers who would show up every 40th episode just to out-smooth Sam Malone with the ladies?
What an asshole!
Damn he was a dick.
Wasn't he the one that kept trying to steal Kelly from Woody? Prick, big time!!!
Well, now that was a real knee-slapper, wasn't it?
Such a jocular bunch, you Republicans!
Best,
Scott
Hey Jenn
Careful you don't yell "Bush." (At least when your legs aren't together.)
I'm a moderate Scott.
Gee, Bill, I'll keep that in mind.
