    How can you tell if someones hand is raised over the internet. Anyway wrong forum, not that there actually is a forum for this stuff.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 pigeoncrumb


    actually for a while i was searching for a forum to post this in, but to no avail. anyways i supposed people would just be creative in showing that their hand was raised. oh well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,180 ✭✭✭keu


    after hours?
    what do I think of americans? for the most part the ones i've met generally lack any kind of sense of humour and have huge superiority complexes. But then again, maybe I haven't met the right ones yet.

    ah, yes, mr. bush...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,180 ✭✭✭keu


    well..clinton was normalish..the fact that he had oral sex just makes him popular with the irish, and seemingly americans didn't have such a crappy repuatation when he was in charge..playing with his saxomophome.

    Americans genraly are ok.

    Its only the ones who come over here talking like John Wyane and saying everything is quaint that get on peoples nerves


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 pigeoncrumb


    ya, deffinately was a better president. on the other hand bush is so much more fun to make fun of.

    "it isnt the pollution thats harming our environment. Its the impurities in our water and air that are doing it"

    yes..I laugh a lot when I hear another couple of thousand muslims have been killed.

    but aside from the generalisations..there are one or two I have great respect for and who's company I really enjoy. So don't feel bad.

    you know what? i get extremely pissed off when i hear something like "one of our brothers was killed the other day in bagdad and a whole state is grieving over it and those iraqies are gonna pay" mean while thousands of inosent civilians are being slaughtered over there and condoleasa is having a ****ing party.

    Stop hating your country, thats our job! Why dod you want to know what we think about america anyway. Our most right wing goverments (in europe that is) are still left to you'r republicans. Of course we're going to hate you guys. And stuff like we owe you our freedom so we should follow you into hell doesn't really wash either. Also thinking Northern Ireland and hte Republic are one place doesn't help/

    tbh..I don't think there is much the American public can do about their adminsitration. Their votes really don't count. So what you gonna do?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 pigeoncrumb


    well your wrong about something there. i do not hate my country. im proud to be american. i just hate whats happening to it. the reason im asking this question is because im in highschool, and we're writng this paper about reputations Americans have, and how we can change that. i was just interested thats all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 pigeoncrumb

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,180 ✭✭✭keu

    STop invading half the feicing world. Stop protecting war criminals. Stop sending billions of dollars to isreal to fund its illegal occupations, Stop ****ing up the entire planet and then pretending like you're the only ones on it and that some how what others do doesn't effect you. Stop harping on about 9/11. You have no idea sickening that makes me feel when I think of how americans funded and still fund republicans here in ireland that have murdered so many innocent people. No spin is going to change the outsides world towards amercia. We're not bought said and lead by a hand full of media outlets. We form our won opinions on things and see though the crap being feed to you people.

    You want to know how opinions have changed. Well here you people used to be loved. American tourist in Ireland where a god sent. Now alot of people feel resentment towards you over shannon and for the Irish goverments and us in turn getting blood on its hands.

    Alot of people will claim that foreigners don't hate americans, just american goverment. Well here something that is you, thats each and every one of you.

    best of luck with your research. I hope you find what you need.
    it seems that if this administration has achieved anything, its promoting some sort of consciousness in the younger generation.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 pigeoncrumb


    nice.

    YOU'RE. I think your people have bad grammar and spelling and you compensate for it by calling it American-English. Plus a good proportion of your people are clinically ignorant and easily manipulated.

    Of course some of you are just lovely.

    Che Guevara tbh. The only difference that I can spot between America and Nazi Germany is that you're getting away with it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 pigeoncrumb
