Americans once again prove to know nothing about the outside borders

[ChubbyChecker]

One day I plan to travel to a forest in America and hunt the elusive hot dog.

'It has not been known to make a dash for freedom when coming under the knife. '

i was sure that they wold have sacked the guy who writes these lines by now for being too sarcastic

[Proteus]

Of course haggis are animals.

This is all communist propaganda.

[roadrunner_0]

all commies should be shot on sight, this includes the norwegian ones.

[I am Idler]

hotmail is owned by a communist.

ner ner

[Structural Integrity]

heh heh...

I knew what haggis was, but I never saw it (or a pic of it) I thought it was a plate with meat or something, not a roll like on that picture.
Actually, when you look at the haggis dish on that newspage it kinda looks like an animal, like a fried fat mole or something.

[I am Idler]

it looks like a chopped off leg with severe frostbite

[Deffeh]

In fairness, the old "haggis is a three legged creature" is a myth the english believed for centuries

[I am Idler]

ancient people were a bit gullible though

[1-X]

Before opening this thread, I guessed you were mocking this story

Offensive jargon comes under fire

Yours was better though.

EDIT more/better info

WIth one leg shorter than the others so it can run round mountains easier \o/

[1-X]

so they're not, like, living bagpipes after all?

no reason to ever go to Scotland then, they might as well close it

and anyway, haggis hunting should be banned. It's against the will of the McPeople (probably)

Scotland doesn't have McPeople, to be a McPerson you have to have a McJob and we all know the Jocks just sit around in string vests all day sponging off us productive English/Welsh people!

The worker filed a discrimination complaint after seeing videotape machines labelled with the words.

how is this offensive? uh oh the word "slave" is used, it must be RACIST AND OFFENSIVE TO EVERYBODY. bah humbug.

[Pyr0 MK III]

quiet fag

[Deffeh]

I was going to make a joke but being banned wouldnt have been nice. Anyway, black people dont use the internet, so i would have got away with it.

[Nodrog]

it certainly seems like a niggardly issue to get worked up over.

[Knight Theamion]

sometimes i miss the old days


whip

cotton


the works.

[Snurx]

It's kinda stupid, yes. But i do understand that some can be offended at the stuff, even thought i feel that it's stupid!

[Billy No Mates]

Bloomers is insane.

maybe they should be less dumb


edit: in an ideal world, all tech firms would abide by this request and stop dealing with LA County completely, but it isnt particularly likely to happen.

Hey Nodrog, I run everywhere I go because you get to your destination quicker and it keeps you fit. I know running is more dangerous than walking and in fact, just the other day, I was running to the canteen in work when I collided with a fire extinguisher but on balance, I prefer to run.

My colleagues have started to notice my running as well, so much so that I've been asked to meet with a counsellor in ten minutes. Actually, I'm a bit behind schedule but if I run, I might just make it.

What do you prefer?

[Baron Morte]

it takes a racist to spot another racist.

well









actually no, it doesnt

i posted this yesterday and some nazi mod merged my thread dammit

[roadrunner_0]

Don't worry. I once got called a nazi for supporting freedom of speech which was a pretty funny moment for me. Every time someone calls me a nazi now I think back to then and start laughing.

[Intrepid00]

Do I get bonus points for know what Haggis is, but I don't see what not know it means? Its food, I wouldn't call it priorty on my list to know. I am sure I could dig up some American treat that you wouldn't know about but is popular here.

[Deepflow]

this thread is kinky

[Phil^]

Lol that made me giggle.
