Whats wrong with a sense of humor?
I am sure the Chinese have doozies about western cultures too...
There is a really bad joke Clinton did back in the mid 1990's selling Nuke reactor parts to North Korea. Now, today on the news, the North Koreans successfully launched an ICBM underwater from a submarine and then there is the wondrous Iran nuke deal...
Yes, the joke maybe real soon on us so lighten up - really dark times are ahead Kenny... that is no joke.

Ken was misreading the situation, I almost liked* you, no offense was taken and all was well until YOU had the nerve to implicate me as being Japanese!RickD wrote:Kenny,Kenny wrote:I was referring to the Jokes made about Chinese and Asians.

If you'd done your homework, and paid attention, you'd have seen that Audie jokes right along with us. It's what we do here. It's all friendly fun.
And we don't dislike Audie. We love Audie. All 49kg of fightin' Geisha!
Nicki wrote:A good question - I don't think it was necessarily bait. It's not very ethical but it's probably hard to avoid these days if you're not wealthy. I remember my mother making a lot of our clothes (which I didn't appreciate at all when all the other kids at school seemed to have cool bought clothes) until she realised she could buy them more cheaply than what she paid for the material to make them. Clothes were probably pretty expensive when she was growing up because of where and how they were made.Audie wrote:Is it moral / ethical to purchase goods produced in third world sweatshops?
NOW look at who is putting out bait! The American Trailer parkers will have their tongues hanging out.Philip wrote:Rick: Yes, I shop at Wal-Mart all the time.
Personally, I like to avoid it!
As much as possible.
That almost looks like Furstentum Liechtenstein! I say "almost", because if it were FL, it would be a whisky bottle, instead of wine.Philip wrote:Truth is, there's always at least a bit of truth behind stereotypes. Question always is, is the stereotyping accurate to the person/situation someone applies it to? And so many stereotypes are just funny.
ANYONE we know?
