Then I'm sorry too. For your lack of humour.

I dare you to find someone on the boards that will so much as giggle with that post.

You won't.

I'll stop now, I've given you enough free spam.

Again, how many people were left out of that interview so whoever made it could get his point across?
I think we're all aware that the video clip has been cut up and glued back together to an extreme degree, but we take it for the truth for the sake of argument.
Because, regardless of media stereotypes, no matter if it's been edited to hell and back, I imagine there is still some small grain of truth in there.

And that's where your logic fails my friend.

You remember what happened with the 360? How Microsoft was saying that it was a resounding success because every console was sold out? Remember how few consoles they shipped in the first place?

I guess there must still be some small grain of truth in the 360 being a stunning success as well, and not some marketing and advertising biased statement.

I guess we should also take that for truth for the sake of argument and ignore everything that might put that statement in question.

PS: I take it back, THIS is the best ownage ever.

Bring 'em on Mune, bring 'em on.

At least they didn't think Australians were Austrians...or did they...?

'I can't believe you Austrians speak such good English!'

Yeah, but the majority of all people are pretty stupid. Trust me, I've dealt with the public on a daily bases. Heh, and I doubt it's much different any where else.

Set aside the misleading geography. Have you heard those people answers about the question "In terms of the war on terrorism, which country should the USA invade next?" if there answers do not show how STUPID they are, I don’t know what does!!

I'll tell you what does, that no one (including most of us here) seem to have a problem with the premise of the question.

Why the hell should the US invade another country? Have we been attacked? When did the "War on Terror" become a license to violate international law for shits and giggles; and more to the point, when did we stop caring?

What shows the stupidity of the average American is the fact that a huge chunk of the country doesn't see a problem with this new doctrine of preemptive war and invasion in the name of fighting an ideology.

Fear that the people have after 9/11 is why i think they are ok with preemptive war,fear is something the leaders of the US love then people will be okay the way they act right now.
