<raises her eyebrows and glances at Roland> Hmmm. Here's a little unsolicited advice.

You seem cranky. Maybe you should have a drink or get some sleep.

You also seem defensive. Maybe you shouldn't lie.

It's quite clear that this area of Literotica is not for fiction, so your "fantasy weaving" has no place here. Save your embellishments for the story section and while you're at it, leave your nasty, childish, name-calling attitude at the door.

Well, Roland, you didn't ask for my name and regiment because I didn't spout off that I was in any war of any sort. And if you will recall, I didn't ask for your name either. Just what you did there. My advice is... get some help. You are obviously a compulsive liar, and you need some serious psychiatric evaluation which your veteran's benefits should help pay for. You DO have Gulf War Syndrome afterall, don't you? As well as a healthy dose of shell shock, I'd wager.

As for the comment about how you are suppose to make up things and embellish the facts here, I'll agree that we probably don't all look like we claim to when we talk to people on line. But lying about where you've been and what you've done when it comes to war is quite another issue altogether. It makes a mockery of what those people have done for us over the years, insults them for their great accomplishments, and makes you look like a four star asshole (which I now believe you are after your reply).

So put that in your smart bomb and smoke it. And if you reply again, I'll just argue with you over and over and over again, because that's what I like to do. Even if it IS giving you the attention that you so obviously crave. I really feel sorry that you think your life is so shitty that you have to make up things to make you feel important and interesting.

My advice is try being yourself, even if you are a pimple-faced 17 year old high school student sneaking time on your daddy's computer. The people here would then be honest and open to you.

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

I didn't know what to get you, so I figured you might like a matching set of islands.

It was that or a toaster.

 

[Xander]

LOL@Roger.
An Island outside the coast of Scotland. One who is supposed to be Danish LOL
Why thank you Roger. But I'd rather have a castle in the highland somewhere

Oh Munchin'. Where exactly is those macthing islands located ?? *thinking to self* please let it be one of the "i" islands. Please let it be one of the "i" islands. Like Maui, Hawaii, Bali or something like that

Hey, everyone needs at least one toaster!

 

[Scotsdude]

Xander, on the first page, you mentioned the Germans hate the Brits. Not true. Okay, we have a history and the Brits do hate the Germans; but the Germans always had a lot of respect for the Brits. They believe we are resourceful people. I remember watching the England - Germany match on German TV; their commentators supported the English. I think the English have a problem with everybody, though. They hate the Germans, Scotts, Irish, Welsh, French.............Americans, Japanese......the list is endless; then again, you can't really generalise, can you, there're always exceptions.

 

[Xander]

Damnit Slater I simply stated the general stereotypical views

It was meant as a joke!!!

I don't put everyone in on basket so to speak. There is good people and bad people all over the planet.

I have no problem with any other country. I give everybody the benefit of the doubt. If the Individual proves to me that he/she is an asshole. THEN I have a problem with them. Not before.

 

[Scotsdude]

Hey Xander, calm down. I wasn't criticising you, just stating the point, that's all. Don't go ape!

 

[Xander]

Okay I'm calm now

 

[Roland Gilliad]

xander is calM???? ::runs away screaming::

Hey Carl...,

Did you ever notice how some posts take on a life of their own. I re-read your initial post and I agree with you 100%. The U.S.A. , to me, is a microcom of the world in the sense that are people here from every country. Even small towns have folks living there who are immigrants.

Where I live, in S.E. Michigan, we have the 2nd largest populatiom of arabic speaking people outside of the Mideast. Ironically, they are concentrated near Dearborn, a city once known to be virolently xenophobic. (Orville Hubbard & Henry Ford must be turning over in their graves). We also have a large selection of ethnic restaurants and stores that continues to grow as the immigrat population grows. Candidly, I
love the diversity that we have here. I also love the diversity of opinion and the freedom to express it.

On the other hand, what I hate most is Fear. Fear breeds hatred and that breeds conflict AND I HATE CONFLICT!!!
So, my brother, thank you for your post and your kind and loving words.

I thought I'd bump this one, as a lot of the things said in it, still hold true. What do you think?

Okay...this may be a bit of a hijack, but is still pretty topical.

Did anyone else, while watching the movie Pearl Harbor, think "My god, a day that will live in infamy? Sure an American tragedy...a human tragedy, but at the same time how much of Europe had already had the hell bombed out of it. How many thousands of people, already in the War in Europe, had died...how many Pearl Harbors were being created every day over there." It just seemed a bit pompous to sit here complaining about this horrible wrong that had been done to us when the rest of the world was suffering so much more.

Granted I don't know the history of WWII that well, but watching that movie I just thought how PH was just one tragedy (and probably a lesser one) in a world chock-full-of-it. And yes, I am American, yes I feel for those who died at Pearl, but I also think we need some perspective here.
