Pic of your husband I take it?

Thank you for the personal attack, thus disqualifying yourself from being on this forum in the first place. And no, I ditched my German husband years ago. He was boring, egotistical, unimaginative, inconsiderate, unhelpful in bringing up our children, thought more about the cost of his car than my health and took it as a personal insult if I dared to be happy when he was feeling depressed.
This is not German bashing in general, this is a description of my German ex.

Well I can't be a hypocrite; if someone posted something like that about America (which people do) I'd get upset too (which I do). I think he was just trying to illicit the reaction he has but still... not acceptable in my book.

we need Don to post!

Basically I just posted to make it clear that fenna's post didn't just reflect the feelings of a single person...and like it or not, as long as this is an open forum people will comment on the shit that gets posted here.

If you don't like that - well, there's the door!

No, LittleSprite, the difference is that I choose not to let the opinions of a small minority spoil my enjoyment of TT. I'm not going to flounce off and leave just because a few people think differently from me or say things I don't like. Just like I choose to live my life in Germany and focus on the positive aspects of it rather than get upset because German people are wankers on the U-bahn*.

* Okay, not sure what that had to do with anything, but just thought I'd mention it.

I drove in by car this morning, there were plenty of German wankers on the roads too.

Ah, come on, get a sense of humour. If you think posting a pic of a nazi is a funny representation of a typical German you shouldn't be so touchy now, shouldn't you?

Isn't it weird how the idea of what's funny and what's not differs depending on whether you're personally involved?

I was talking about people who got a problem with my posts. If they don't like my posts surely they can just skip them as easily as I'm supposed to skip Don Riina's posts.

Any points being made here are being lost in wild hysteria, general accusations and really I'd like to see InflateableWoman post loads of JPEGs, as this would be the natural conclusion to this thread.
Wax on, wax off.

But it is a shame, what with Munich being so close to quite a lot of salt, that Little Sprite couldn't just borrow a pinch or several.

Everyone knows that Colonel Klink is a gross misrepresentation of a German Nazi officer, blown out of all proportion. Like so many things on this forum.

Correct . Heaven is full of Irish and border collies. Altho my Alice connection hasn't been the best in the last coupla days... which is where this thread joins the "German customer service" one we have oh every two minutes or so.

This is brightening up a dull day, any more people need to be offended?

Dog owners, parents, single mothers, fat people, thin people, gingers, british dentists, american polititians, people who work for nasa, people who work in IT, marketing lovies, lawyers, gay people, pregnant gay people, black pregnant and disabled gay people, scottish unwashed, english in general, all americans unless they come from texas and have guns, moderators, frequent posters and people who chew with their mouth open, and my favourite liberal hippies and supermarket chain store owners.

I think keydeck said it correctly. TT is not a EU sponsered site to further the cultural understanding between our proud national heritage and cultures. If that's what you came for you are going to be rather upset and dissapointed. It is a source of info, banter and general whinging about all of the above and obviously as we need to deal with it on a daily or hourly basis zee germans.

Actually they do, they're open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. One of the reasons I'm glad I don't live there.
Jules Winnfield
Have a look at that forum run by Germans who live in the UK. It's not like everything that gets written on there is really complimentary...
Anyway. if you knew Don Riina personally you would've have never even bothered to start this topic.

Just wondering why are there so much hatred in our hearts?

Why cant everyone just enjoy the differences...
HellesAngel
It's all about how you enjoy them. Search the internet and you can find some very weird things that people do just for enjoyment...

Because different is wrong and hostile and threatening and not what we're used to.

if you wanna play around on TT, just don't take things too seriously. If you're offended by a post, report it, and if enough people share your view that the post is offensive and report it as well then I'm sure the poster in question will be asked to turn it down a notch. Simple really.

And really, at the risk of being Miss Repetitive McRedundancy: if you don't like it, go away. I find lots of things on the Internet offensive so I choose not to look at them.

I'm surprised that it came from you. Why didnt you do the same when I started to post on TT and did some mistakes? Couldnt you report that? or Being a supporter/mod (or whatever), dont you hold the responsibility of making TT famous and profitable? You could have reported or informed the mod to send a PM and corrected my petty language mistakes (which was because I got used to adjusting my English according to German needs)? And you come and preach things there?

When that bad dog barked on me, I was initially taken aback (I think this dog and others just googled my nick, found a German having the same id, discussed with fellaz in protected forum, found a strategy and started attackin' me). But his posts are informational and I do like the way he writes. Sometimes, its a learning experience too (I corrected some of my mistakes). But all you do is just post drivel, talk about relationships, etc things and no useful info. And you act like a snobby lady in one of those fuckin' Hollywood movies (not knowing your real position).

Also, you said that TT is like that in the beginning and gradually you tend to have fun. So, you mean you folks set up some kind of booby traps for n00bs and make them feel miserable?

PS: I'm just acting (after adjusting to TT's needs) like any other TT guy. Its common here to whine/moan/swear. So, dont take it seriously! wink.gif

The differences makes us special in our own way. Why cant we just respect that?

AND i dont think any nationality/dialect/make/gender/chaste/colour are superior than the other.

Warum nicht?! Well, sometimes some people do that. I came to that conclusion just because they started claiming (with authority) that I'm a kraut. Also, dont you think its one of those main jobs for people who are administering a website? or for people who are extra-curious? huh.gif

I aint a kraut and I dont have anything againt Krauts/Americans/British/Pakistani's or any other folks. Some people on board are really naive and ignorant. dry.gif

Perhaps if you referred to them as Germans it would be a step in the right direction towards looking less ignorant.

When i mentioned differences, i meant upbringing/cultural/colour/ethics/religions/dialects/mistakes & errors people make/whatever.

Why cant we just enjoy these differences?
