SO huge win by the Aussies in the cricket last night;)
How long 'til that chick is wearing skimpy triangle bikinis and g-strings in her clips?
I reckon it's a sure thing once the music industry gets their claws into these young females.
They spend too much time on makeup to bother about writing/singing decent songs....:rolleyes:
Grrrrreat win by the Aussies. Love'd every minute of it, 'cept when it was raining and dickheads in front had out the brollies. Big poofs, it was a brief shower...:rolleyes:
;)
Those frogs are the biggest losers on the face of the Earth! I knew the Frenchies were jealous of the way the world has taken to Americana like blue jeans and coca-cola, but jealous to the point that the French Government has to step in to remove the McDonalds?
Must I really explain to anyone how totally pathetic this is? If the people of France didn't like Mickey D's, just let them go out of business! Obviously, this wasn't the case.
That is SO PATHETIC!!!

I don't know what they are saying as I have ONE PERSON IN PARTICULAR on ignore but I"m sure it's something gh3y..
Poor baby? It's not like I'm bummed about McDonalds being removed from France, I'm just completely amazed at how pathetic the French Government is to take it upon themselves to remove all these McDonalds!!! It's not like they were going out of business.
BUT THE FRENCHIES IN THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR THEIR PEOPLE, WHETHER THEY LIKE IT OR NOT. It kind of reminds me of when an aids test was available to the world but the French Government decided to hold off testing its citizens until the FRENCH AIDS TEST was ready. Meanwhile, thousands more cases were spread by French citizens who could have been tested, but for their own good, did not have to suffer through a NON-FRENCH AIDS TEST!
Losers!

point of order...I don't think it's the government (although they activley encourage this behaviour) forcing Maccy D's to do that; rather MD took the decision themselvesQuote:

Typical US attitude, you say one thing about how they are treating prisoners, and suddenly you are supporting the Taliban. Ask kovan about my many posts attacking the Taliban pre Sept 11th. You guys really have to look at the message you are sending to the rest of the world.Quote:

So if the Brit, Oz, Kiwi press and the UN are making the same statements this makes all these organisations pro-Taliban. What a load of ****e.
I guarantee the stupid little ***** is talking about me. :D
I had a go at him for his stupid gung-ho kill 'em all American attitude in a recent thread. Betcha If I called him a ****ing arsehole ****** ****** boy with one nad and two fathers, he wouldn't have a clue.
Not that I'd do that sort of thing mind you...;)
Oh, and Mikey, chill I was just razzing you up. ;)
It's not really much different from Maccas out here making 'Aussie Burgers' and crap like that. The French version probably just decided to attract more customers by nationalising their product a little. I mean really, come on, who'd purchase food from a big poofy red-headed clown anyway?
:D
And they wonder why the rest of the world either hates em or thinks they are a joke;)Quote:

For every decent US citizen there are about 10 redneck gun toters. I'm with you dude **** em, they really should clean the dead wood out of their country.
Currently under email attack for OZ stance on boat ppl. Gee, what can l say anyone else want the bludgers
;) And no because some one disagrees with OZ stance it doesn't make them a Taliban supporter, but then again we are allowed to disagree with our Government policy!
Bah! They just don't get it.
I wonder what crap foreign media are spouting about our 'stance'.
I've got nothing much against immigrants, especially genuine refugees, but they can accept due process and the fact that we don't want terrorists or any more **** like is hanging around the west of Sydney in the country.
The only issue of contention is the halting of Afghan processing. Fair enough. We can't just have everyone coming here when their own country gets ****ed up, especially when there is significant risk of 'bad apples'. They'll get their turn in due course.
And I'm damn sick of hearing about 'conditions' in the 'prison camp'. **** me, they've got it better than alot of Australian citizens living like ****.
I'm happy to have them, but let us make sure who they are and where they're from first. Christ, it's not that much to ask...
is it just me or is every thread turning anti-american these days?

Well they do have Homer Simpson as a role model.
rlj
Totally agree, l think the problem is the amount of time it's taking to process these ppl, mind you most of them have destoryed their papers.
It probably could be hurried up a little, but then, where do they go? Probably to live in Cabramatta, and then what do we have? More trouble, just in a different country.
I tell you something that really shat me not long ago - some Israel/Palestine conflict has flared up, and one side starts burning down the other side's Embassy or something and rioting, in Sydney. I mean, come on, but it's not our bloody fault. Piss off home and protest there, I reckon. We don't really need that sort of thing happening all over the globe...:rolleyes:
Yeap. Leave the baggage at the border. If you're that inflamed about what is happening in the "home" country then piss off back home and help sort it out.
By the way have you noticed the increase in US citizens in Sydney over the last year:eek: Go to a BBQ and you're falling over them, mainly good people...which they have to be of course to choose OZ over the US.
Memo to Immigration: Test US ppl wanting entry on Taliban, if they accuse the country of being pro Taliban give em a good boot up the date and ship em home;)
Chris
Gee l hope we haven't missed a thread some where:rolleyes: Unfortunatly for the many decent seppos on this site, there is a minority that reinforces every bad view you ever held of the US.:D

I find it so much easier to find an American who fits the stereotype than any other nationality on earth. Deadset.
Except out in West Sydney, all the **** of the world seems to move there for some reason...
I reckon we have an entry exam something like this:
Question 1: If you were attending a barbeque in Australia, and you had been told not to bring anything, what should you bring?
(Circle all appropriate answers)
a*Nothing
b*Beer
c*Steaks
d*Yourself
e*Your goddamn problems and complaints
Question 2: When faced with the decision of multiple sporting events, which should you choose?
(Circle most appropriate answer)
a*Baseball
b*Basketball
c*Cricket
d*Rugby
e*Depends on whether or not those bloody kiwis are playing, and thus I would have to make an informed decision based upon which event I thought would most likely result in a Kiwi flogging
Question 3: Number the following in order of importance:
*Drinking
*Surfing/Swimming/Beaching
*B.B.Q.s
*Shagging
*American television
Question 4: Have you got any religious/ethnic/intellectual/personal problems which may cause you to riot in the streets, rape women or piss off 95% of Sydney motorists by blocking the ****ing Harbour Bridge at peak hour on a Friday night, relying solely on the Police to protect you from a serious arse-kicking?
*Yes
*No
*Does my bum-rash count?
Question 5: Will you support the International 'Music' Industry by purchasing material from, listening to, or attending concerts by any of the following 'acts':
Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez, Puff Daddy, N*Sync, Oasis, Spice Girls, Eminem?
*Yes
*No
*Do I look like some kind of goddamn poofter?
Question 6: Will you insist on wearing bunny-ears, talking about 'yo momma', driving a WR-X like a one-armed, mentally-handicapped, blind 80 year old, drinking Corona/Budweiser, or engaging in any other anti-social behaviour at any time during your citizenship?
*Yes
*No
*Not a goddamn chance
Question 7: Are you originally from NZ?
*Yes
*No
*Baaaaa....
We can judge 'em all by something like this I reckon.
I'm not putting you on ignore ChrisQuote:

It gets off the topic at the end when me, Chenko, GhostRyder start on about music stuff. But it is somewhat amusing. I enjoyed it. :D
Well, you can come in, but I may have to direct you to obtain residence in Tasmania, based on some of your answers...Quote:
