Bloody stupid, politically correct retards.

Oh by the way, if you go to Japan during winter and the weather being cold, am I allowed to say "It's a bit nippy out here."

I find it odd that the Swedes have birds with names
lifted from South African race relations. What word
did they use for swifts before the 1650s?

Yes. This country is #%&*$#.
There is so much wrong with it I don't know where to start.

-----EDIT------
I'm thinking of changing my name to Wonko.
I feel like I'm entering the asylum every time I leave my home.

I read a Douglas Adams book where a character did that. They had furniture, lamps, and all that stuff outside the house, which was covered in wallpaper. When you went inside it was like a garden with trees and benches and such. When he went out the door he called it "entering the asylum" and then he would go into his house to escape back to the "normal" world.

In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!

When I am crowned Emperor, I shall have a series of animals renamed after an ethnic slur, for the lulz.
