The hypocrisy of this board

Steelie? fucking Steelie?

The idea was you could break your wedding vows for some one like Johnny Depp... not Albert Steptoe.

calm down, it's only a cracker.

What a cracker

I often use 'yanks' but don't mean it in a derogatory way - I use it like 'Brit' or 'Aussie'. When I lived in the States, it wasn't derogatory.

I know things do move on - do americans view it as derogatory these days????

Nah, for a big majority of the people on here the word really isn't used in that way

The way Munky and Bilbo throw it around 'seems' to be condescending, thought I'd point it out no biggie

Of course Munky is overt about hating America which is entertaining for the most part (sheeple :))

But when someone gets angry enough over a sad click that they take the time to create a thread requesting that the sad clicker to explain themself, ya can't really take that person serious can you? ;)
