"in Dutch we've got a word for people like that: mierenneukers, haha! I hope nobody will be able to translate that since it won't look pretty in English, lol."

Yes you are right about that. I've seen quite a lengthy website with all kinds of Dutch insults on it. The predominant theme was genitalia and diseases.

I generally don't give a lot of details in profiles for security reasons.

I do not know that the Islamic world is that small hehe

Mmmmmmmmmmmm...

Well, accordgin to my modest knowldge, and if my memort is not wrong, the arabic world [aka middle east and north africa] even it is 14 millinion km^2 and with the huge population it has...Get ready to hear the next...

IT IS STILL ONLY 20% of the Islamic world... to be more precise it is 19.78%..

Hahaha, i found it amazing how many people in the "Western World" don;t know that..[yeah, i am from the western world...even i lived very long years in the middel east!]

[i am not mkaing fun of anybody..but i just find it funy how usually arabs are considered the vast majority of muslims...] :smile: :smile:

UK and the forum name gives the gender away.

What a great place - I start composing my first post in the Quantum Theory section and end up answering my question before I got as far as the Submit button. So, apart from this post, I'll go back to lurking...

Where's that thread about necroposting...?
In a way, I'm glad that this came up. The thread far predates me, so I went ahead and voted since I'd never seen it before.

This poll apparently hasn't been active in over four years, so it's got to be way out of date. I'm sure we have a lot more members from Asia than the poll results indicate as I write this.

Calgary, eh? That's where I got stuck in a freakin' blizzard in the middle of the freakin' month of May, five years ago!

You're not an Albertan until that has happened to you in August. :-p

:smile: I just went back and caught the interaction between Monique and MrRobinParsons, who really had his panties in a bunch at the notion of being lumped in with us crude, crass Americans. Wow, Monique, you must have infinite patience!

The funny thing was, that very evening I took a bus up to Edmonton, which turned out to be bone dry because the blizzard had bypassed it. A couple of mornings later I went to catch the train to Vancouver and it was several hours late because it had gotten stuck in that same blizzard in Manitoba.

But when I finally got back to Calgary the next week for my flight home, I was rewarded with gorgeous clear weather.

As a Canuck, I'm also quite offended if someone assumes that I'm a Yank, but Parsons was more offensive in a lot of his posts than most people of any nationality. I denounce him. For one thing, anyone who introduces himself as 'Mr.' anything gets my shoe up his *** immediately. Some idiot debt collector, who had no reason to be bothering me, kept calling and announcing himself as 'Mr. Van******'. I put up with it for a while, until he threatened to seize my mother's house. Then I pointed out that I knew where he lived and where his children went to school, and hinted about having survived a couple of black-ops tours in Cambodia... never heard from him again. :biggrin:

edit: Just saw you last post, JT. You must know the standard saying in Alberta; if you don't like the weather, wait a minute.
