The United States of America

[Beanz]

Beanz, two things have just happened right here in this thread. The first one is that Lyle would love to go fishing and so many threads doesn't like it if I say something about America. The second thing that happened is that walrus who just admitted that we had a kind of a truce just decided to pile on the bandwagon with Lyle against me. And I had a really good exchange the other day through private messages. So I thought the Vibes were pretty good we even made a joke about Razzing him and he responded how is that working out for you. But here he has bared his teeth and I don't know why he has now shifted the vibration of it as I said nothing about him at all in any way

as for walrus I have just said many good things about him on several different threads yet now he wants to pile on the bandwagon with Lyle.

wait let me guess wasn't my joke in the referral to a smoking jacket the other day that perhaps he has just come across? I even messaged the guy telling him that I was just joking whenever I think that I have gone a little too close to the Bone in a personal way

YYYYYYYYYEAH, IS THAT KEY WORD THERE BEING PERSONAL AWAY IS THAT AS THE ONLY THING WE SHOULD REALLY WORRY ABOUT HERE.

But when a person is so defensively patriotic or patriotically defensive to take the attitude that Lyle has taken in his above post well and right there you just know right there and then you just know and you can see it and feel it that that person is Prickly as a pair and could also have the nickname of porcupine

It is astonishing after 97 pages of far more offensive stuff about England. They fucking hate and rag on England,virtually EVERY single day


"They don’t like it up ’em, Captain Mainwaring."

Thing I don't get is I didn't say anything personal to Lyle or Walrus I just said that in my experience so many cultures in the Middle East and Asia are far more civil and Hospitable than the American culture and that has really set him off. I thought we had freedom of speech FFS

Never been the case here. The real mods are not those handing out bans but those drowning out the voices of anyone else. The last word, right of no reply, can dish it out but can't take it crew

I don't hate ENGLAND....I just find ridiculous things happening in England and post on them. You yourself called the last one "ludicrous" yes I agree, it's why I posted it.

I do the same with America, that "Everything wrong with the left" is pretty much all American stuff.

[brocktonblockbust]

You see the thing Lyle is when I talk about Civility and Hospitality I'm not confining it to the left or to the right I'm not talking about political stuff I'm just talking about in general and then again it's based only on my experiences. Now I have lived 11 years out of the United States was quite a long time I am willing to bet that is longer than any other American on the form or at least close to it. I can seriously tell you that I found it far more hospitable and all the countries I lived in outside of the US. That doesn't mean that you Lyle would be inhospitable I was just talking about in general

OK brock


"until I went abroad until I saw normal, civil, caring, presentable people and saw what normal natural and healthy food is."

Because that's not available in the United States......where YOU were, of course

"do you get the impression that there's something really really wrong with America and American society given all of the mass shootings and Incredibly High astronomically High rate of divorce and childhood obesity and childhood diabetes and school shootings and astronomically High rate of mental illnesses?"

Yup none of that stuff happens OUTSIDE the United States.....where YOU were, of course

"I don't know why they're dying to try to come here."

....where YOU are, of course




"I know the Americans are going to chant red white and blue until we want to stick a sock in their mouth."

We who? brock? You going to attempt to stick a sock in my mouth? Or is that just you know a general expression and not meant for anyone specifically?

[brocktonblockbust]

damn Lyle your first two points were weak bit that last one was the worst. When did I say anything about you personally? I think you're reading too much into it.

Also taking literally the expression to put a sock in it that's also a bit disingenuous isn't it. Do you really think it means to take a literal sock and actually put it in someone's mouth? Sheesh

also now to your unsound syllogism on the first two points now let's get to that. Just because there are obese and diabetic children in other countries doesn't in any way nullify or even detract in the slightest from my point that the United States is the king of childhood diabetes and autism and childhood obesity and that was really the main point Lyle but rather than get the main point you want to try to say that I said it did not exist at all outside of the US

I’ve probably read this much bullshit crammed into a small place before I just can’t remember when

[brocktonblockbust]

Welp there went the truce.....😕😕😕

Oh I'm supposed to impress you?

So you've NEVER met anyone kind, civil, caring until you went elsewhere? Ok then

You NEVER lived in a place with ANY problems? Ok then

You don't know why people risk life and limb to get here? Ok then

WE who??

It got personal because I'd chant USA until you want to "jam a sock" in someone's mouth....BUT if you didn't mean it for me then who are you talking to?

1. Who said you're supposed to impress me? Where do you get that from? 😕😕😕😲😲

2. I met a FAR, FAR higher percentage of civil, decent, sincere people OUTSIDE the US, yes.
You want to make a very big poo-poo of words like "NEVER" and "ANY" and you'll miss (and you did) the gist of it...... Still doesn't negate MY experiences/observations during my 11+ years outside the US.

3. So just because someone wants someone else to cease and desist from a certain action doesn't mean they should physically stick a physical sock literally in someone's mouth, but now suddenly you, the Weisenheimer of All Time want to do what Chris Cuomo does and take it literally. Idioms are unthinkable for Lyle when it suits.

4. Go ahead Lyle, keep taking it personally, even when I don't mention you at all.
