matt - man, mystery, meatball While this might perhaps be proving your point (falling into that horrible trap of reacting angrily to someone saying "you come from a nation of drunken hotheads"), and it's the first time I've ever felt moved to badmouth someone on Barbelith.
Being Irish; Your initial post shows you to be:
a) uneducated (part of the UK?)
b) quite racist (Although I see your point, I mean, I don't know many black people, but I guess they're mostly violent, , although I know that's mildly offensive, but there it is. My knowledge of modern blacks comes mostly from "Bad Boyz" and that Denzel Washington/Ethan Hawke movie). I think once you pass the age of 10; ignorance no longer excuses racism based on stereotypes.
Also; backtracking in later posts to try and underline your intellectual wit that, 'no, of course I wasn't generalising nor posting my own opinion; I was wittily playing with stereotyped identities and highlighting how misperceptions of others. Aren't I clever? Harhar!!' doesn't really do much to detract from my observations.
If I've incorrectly assumed this post to be sincere (although it reads so ignorantly, I realise that perhaps I've missed a bit of brilliant comedy here); deepest apologies for over-reacting.
Silver: thanks for allowing me to maintain the respect I usually have for your fellow Canadians.
Smoothly Weaving You're great. |
