You'reasian Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 Can tell you're not from the UK you would get slammed for being outrageously un-PC for that comment What's even funnier - What is un-PC in the U.S. vs. what is un-PC in the UK and EU. That's funny.
Untouchable_Fire Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Can tell you're not from the UK you would get slammed for being outrageously un-PC for that comment Sometimes I wonder what happened to the Brittish. For a people that once ruled the world... they seem to be totally neutered now.
paddington bear Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Sometimes I wonder what happened to the Brittish. For a people that once ruled the world... they seem to be totally neutered now. Because of the guilt complex of having totally ruled the world. 'Oh dear, sorry about that old chap, sorry for butchering half your population and claiming your country for our own, we'll just step quietly back now and not say another word for a few millenia'. But yeah, the retard joke...no way would that go without being commented on as totally un-pc in Britain.
CommitmentPhobe Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Sometimes I wonder what happened to the Brittish. For a people that once ruled the world... they seem to be totally neutered now. we're too busy being cool to bother with world domination these days
Untouchable_Fire Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 I don't know about this. I've dated guys who were over 6'1, goodlooking, immaculate dressers and hygiene, high earners, who have taken me on amazing dates and I still didn't feel anything for them. Yet I can look at a man and he can look at me and I feel something (chemistry) without even knowing his name first. I don't know, I guess a certain intensity I feel between us. So, maybe it depends on the person like you said and what their idea of chemistry is. I think that just means sexual chemistry is not your #1.

I like my testicles firmly attached to my body. My ancestors did what they did. I don't see any reason to feel guilty about it. It's not like any other group of people would have acted differently provided the same opportunity. we're too busy being cool to bother with world domination these days Like Hugh Grant style cool? LOL... I used to laugh my tail off hearing UKer's complain about Blair... usually I would just say... we have Bush.... wanna trade?
paddington bear Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Oh come on, Tony Blair apologised for the Irish potato famine ...which happened in 1845...In all seriousness though I'm not sure how much good this retrospective apologising for the actions of the population (who are now long dead) actually does, but I for one was glad someone said sorry for it, even if it was well over a century too late and it's not like Tony Blair caused it himself - hence my comment about the guilt-complex...anyway sorry, all off-topic.
lonelypiscesguy Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Then I see how old she is "40" LOL! I thought there was a certain age that this kind of thinking stopped. I can understand young college aged 20-something women thinking this.] LOL, this was part of the problem with me and my ex, she would always say, "I'm a princess, I want to be taken care of, remember?" 41 years old!
