So now it comes down to racist humour??? Why don't we start slinging dodo at all the Filipino, (or is that Pilipino?) residents of north america? I find it hard to resist lowering myself to your level , but I will forego resorting to such filth...

My country has two official languages, not one.

I love conan and the triumph skits. maybe it was a bad idea for you to post it where people may take offense... Would you go to a party with people of different backgrounds and start telling racial jokes? Some people can take them, some can't.

And by the way... I'm not French in any way shape or form. Both of my parents were first generation Canadians of English(dad) and Ukrainian/Polish(mom) heritage.

depends on the party. for formal parties, nope.

i don't consider "the funny farm" as a formal forum.

So at what point did it occur to you that it would be a good idea to post a video making fun of canadians on a canadian-run website?

Oh how I wish I was a moderator. Your lack of good judgement astonishes me.

The point isn't whether it's funny or not. The point is that you don't know who you might offend. Like spinner said. You wouldn't start telling racist joke to a bunch of peole you've never met. You don't know how they'll react. Telling jokes to a group of friends is different, you know them, you know how they'll react. The internet is like a party, you don't know these people and you don't their ethnicity.

Verm, do you enjoy being disliked by such a large majority of people here? It sure seems like it. You post reams of immature-to-outright-stupid krap, ignore good advice from people who actually know what they are talking about, or worse, attempt to tell them why they are wrong with inaccurate arguments and feeble excuses. And somehow you think this makes you popular? right? or funny? (personally, I think you are funny... but not in a humorous way, just in an orientationally confused way, but that's not the issue).

You have been given a number of good options to rectify this and make this site more enjoyable for OTHER USERS (since you fail to twig to the fact that this place is not here for you alone), the most sensible one being.....
PUT THIS SHIIT IN YOUR BLOG!!!

All these video links you think are so entertaining, all the 'I want this'... 'Look at the shiny thing'..... 'I need this to be a good rider'.... 'Ain't I cool, and I got a video to prove it' topics and thread hijacks could, and should, be placed in your blog. Anyone else who enjoys them (all 3 of them) can find this junk there, and the rest of us can be spared your warped view of our favorite passtime.

And you could be spared being told what a flucking idiot you are by folks who know an idiot when they see one. And they see one in every post you make......

When you first started posting here, I thought you were a decent guy with some odd ideas, but basically there was some hope for you. You have proven to me and others that I was wrong, and you are a hopeless wannabe.... that will never be.

You got your blog. Use it. Abuse it. Do whatever you like in it. But spare those of us with an I.Q. higher than our shoe size your version of what riding is about.

Think you can handle that? Or are just an attention mean?

I think I know the answer already, but let's see if I'm wrong. :evil:
No Witnesses.... :shifty:

We can't ingonre it because there are 5 of your threads between every useful thread. On top of that you thread-jack damn near everybody's thread with you poser questions and attitude. Stop being such an arrogant jackass and respect the other people on this board.
