Funny how GARbage returns to thank all his alias's.....Uber FAIL

Out of the top of my head, 3 things:

G'day mate, Bruce, and Sheila.

Cheers! :bottle:

Huh ! A Monty Python fan

[Anonymous]

Well, the Bruce and Sheila are from Monty Python, but not the G'day mate.

Still, ye're right of course. And let me tell ya fella, I wish the rest of the world shared the Australian point of view when it comes to political correctness.

Shit, any day now, we can't even open our mouths. It'll be considered offensive to those who can't speak.

The world has turned gay. I hate it.

Cheers! :bottle:

[Panamark]

Imapus, the whole world is turning really anal...
If I could free speech here the way I do with my
friends, they would probably nuke me

Half the time I worry about what I post, that someone
will take offense in the cross-translation, even though
I'm not posting anything offensive in my country....


I reckon that PC shit will go full circle ?? It has too ??

[Reverberator]

Post more in the dump then .... we've never really been too PC there.

[Panamark]

I do ! I guess not regularly enough to be noticed...lol...

Americans have kinda become hypersensitive to what could be deemed a "racial slur" partially out of guilt.

Throughout it's history, it has exploited, dehumanized and fought with every race on the planet at one time or another, all the while giving the credit to "Old Glory". Examples are endless.

Many of us are "mutts" and could very well be insulting ourselves whenever we let one fly..

Its almost like Americans are oversensitive (black and white) ?
They dont need to be....

Much as you guys called the black fella's ******s in the past, we used
to call our european immigrants "Wogs". The "wogs" now call themselves that
and we can actually call them that in a joking friendly way and neither
side takes offence. They came up with their own term for us, "Skips"
as in "Skippy the Bush Kangaroo" (if you have ever seen that show)
I had wog friends who I would straight out say shit to like,
ah shutup you stupid wog, and they would say ah get fucked you
dumb Skip !! At the end of the day we are still all friends, and take
it as friendly insults.

I know the black Americans have terms like "cracker" for the white,
Seems strange a sense of humour cant be injected where you
dont have to fear calling someone a "stupid ******" and he laughs
and calls you a "stupid cracker " in return, without having to
have some major emotional breakdown over the whole thing..

Your black fella's throw "******" around proudly in their own
circles, yet OMIGOD if a white American dare use the same term...
What does it mean anyway ? Its just a word. Ok it was demeaning
in the slavery days. "Fuck" was also once considered just about the worst
thing you could mention, yet we all throw that around now, like its the most
versatile word in the world (which I think it is)...

Our Black fella's here dont get offended being called Black Fella, they
are proud of it.. They call us White fella's... lol... simple, but it works..
Actually the buzz word now for native australians is "indigenous australians"
I prefer black fella, easier to say when drunk....

Sometimes the world takes itself way too seriously...
PC sucks elephant jizz....

We Just Call ALL Aussie's,MATE.

[Panamark]

Yeah that works, but I've known a few Kiwi's where friendly insulting is
totally acceptable
"Ya Dumb Kiwi", "Get fucked ya Stupid Aussie !!!!"
This all while laughing and having a beer together...

[ZahZoo]

The PC stuff does get silly after a point...

I guess the issue in the US still runs deep from an emotional extent stemming from abuses handed out and endured on both sides of the racial spectrum.

Probably serve all of us better if we could chill, lighten up and laugh more about it all. Who knows... maybe in about 4-5 more generations we might learn to love life more than dish out hate toward each other...

Nah, that ain't gonna happen, as it denotes some form of inward responsibility. Here is the evidence as to why this concept will fail in spectacular fashion...

Fair enough, from now on I wish to be referred to as a Canadian not a Canuck. I find it highly offensive.
A Canuck is a member of Vancouver's NHL team .

And what a fantastic, great team the Cunucks are!!!!

You know, I've often dreamed of such a world... I actually didn't think it was possible.

I'm moving to Australia. I want to make fun of people, and be made fun of in a genuinely roaringly laughable way. Which is not possible in a PC world.

Cheers! :bottle:

Everyones welcome !

THe immigration process is a pain in the ass though.
Best advise is to marry an Aussie, quickest path in !
