Americans.

LOL Skibum. Yeah I hear that a lot about Danish girls. But as Shyguy already said. We have nice looking girls, but no more than any other country.

Stevie. Yes Denmark was the country who didn't go for the Euro first hand, Just like the brits.
I'm not even gonna attempt to get into that. All I have to say is that, no country can stand alone.

Is it really true that evrybody likes the Danes?? Even the boozed up loud mouths.
How about that....

There's nothing rotten in the State of Denmark

Nice to see a bit of badly quoted Shakespeare on the BB, don't you think?

BTW - there's some Viking blood in my family tree. My Mum's from the Orkney islands right at the North of Scotland. Orkney was part of Norway until it was given to Scotland as a wedding present around 500 years ago. (You can read all about it in the 'Orkney-Inga Saga'.)

The Orcadians are still a bit suspicious of the Scots but I suppose these things take time.

LOL Roger, are you trying to kill me
"Nothing is rotten in state of Denmark" Don't make me laugh. There's plenty of rotten aples.

okay, how about this one. *with heavy scot accent*

"My name is Connor McCloud, of the McCloud Clan. I was born in the year 1452 on the fields of Banochborough....Aye!!"

Sorry Roger, I couldn't help myself . No headbutting okay?

Isn't this nice. I actually prefer this stuff to an argument. Even if it could border on the sickly sweet.

It is true that with such a long and complex history, the whole of Europe can think of a good reason to hate any other part of Europe. But at some point or another, the whole of Europe has acted with other parts of Europe, so we can get along, sort of.

My great grandparents came from all four nations of the UK, so I can always find a way to stay out of it. But, as a source of amusement rather than resentment. Did you know that the only English king to be called "the Great" (Alfred) was so called because of how he dealt with the Danish threat? By giving away the northern half of his country. Incidently, I am a northerner by birth, and several towns around here date from the Danelaw. Makes you feel wanted don't it?

Very good. If I didn't know it was you, Xander, I'd swear blind you were a Dundee man born and bred.

Hey, my Mum's told me the proper story about her island, Orkney. It was owned by Denmark not Norway. A Danish princess was marrying a Scottish king 500 years ago and the Orkney islands were given as a dowry. (They really knew how to give wedding presents then, didn't they?) Anyway, the Danish princess died on her way to Scotland but, being a thieving bunch of scoundrels, we never gave the island back to Denmark.

So, I'd like to offer it to your now as a last minute wedding gift. LOL

Lasher, F-You, you MF-ing a-hole, G--D--n it!

Roger, Roger, Roger...

Honestly, when are you going to learn? America IS the greatest country in the world.

But seriously, most of the English friends I have over here are damned arrogant about England (you know, they constantly correct my grammar, tell me I hold my fork wrong, that we don't know how to prepare tea). I don't hate them for it. They are proud of their country as I am of mine.

Besides, it gives me lots to argue with them about. And I DO love a good argument.

Fiction writing is one thing, but deliberately portraying yourself as of WW2 age is out and out lying, and that's what I was calling you on. If you had simply said in the first place that they were your grandfather's friends, I wouldn't have thought twice about it. I would have thought that you were a pretty cool person to befriend those guys. Unfortunately, I think you've shown yourself to be an unpleasant person, and that's too bad. I kind of feel sorry for you.


And Roland, dear, I have every right to criticize anybody I want to. Are you saying that you have the right to criticize, and I don't?

Have a nice day!!

A Quick Poll of My Own...

I've got a really, really, REALLY funny joke I could post from Roland's Gulf War statements (and I'm thinking if I capitalize and punctuate properly he won't even be able to understand... So take that into consideration before ya answer, k?). My question is....

Would that be insensitive??

I mean, it's a really, really, REALLY funny joke - and as much as I'd like to share it with everyone, God knows I don't want to be insenstive...

So should I post it??

It really is really, really, REALLY funny, btw (did I mention that?)...

 

[Casey13]

Oh, Roland. Is your name Hurley also??

Oops, sorry I brought that one up again, but the similarities are uncanny.

What outfit were you with over there, Roland? I have several friends that served there. Were you there with the National Guard, Army Reserve, or with another military unit? What was your job there?

And cursing with every other word doesn't exactly add to your credibility. A nice calm explanation of why you fibbed the first time would have been adequate response without the Desert Storm addition. Needn't have even brought that one up.

So, just the facts, sir. You're making us Americans look like fucking assholes right now (see, I can use a couple of those naughty words myself).

[April]

Please, please, please post it.

Did I forget to say please?

 

[Roland Gilliad]

[Svedish_Chef]

A joke that doesn't insult someone... we cant have that! OK Lasher bring out the artillerey!
