His rhythmic meter and usage of alliteration is sublime, as is his boldly dark but refreshing subject matter, which rivals that of Byron or Shelley"-- this statement was actually made by a guy who won our fantasy basketball league (fadeaway).

    I think it's in good taste and good humor. I just personally thought it was trite and derivitive.

    Anyone seen 'Baseketball'...? A man's rectum is the Australian version of 'vagina'. Hahahahahahahahahahaha

    ahahahhahaha

    ha

    Man is that ever funny.

    That's why it's so damned funny.

    That arguing - was funny, wan't funny sounds familiar. I'm estonian. In our country are lots of russians, ca 30%. (We are former U.S.S.R. respublic, lots of U there in USA don't know what the Estonia is). i work in big company and last week somebody put into our office intranet that text http://www.geocities.com/tuus.rm/russian.html and then russians and some estonias feeled hurt too. it took the same sort of discussion. some people understand the joke and purpose of it, some don't.

    I think Smeg can add one more thing to the list--

    11) You read a list of humorous "charicaturistics" of your country. Do you:

    a) Laugh and move on
    b) Laugh and insult the person who posted it
    c) Take offense and insult the person who posted it

    Look, I'm as patriotic an American as you're likely to find in my generation. I think America's the greatest country the world's ever known. But even I can admit we as a people do a lot of really, really, really stupid things.

    We will never live down Jerry Springer. That much is clear. You ask why we were kicked out of the UN Human Rights Funky Bunch, well, that's reason No. 1 right there. Oh, and Mississippi. Try explaining that to a foreigner.

    I think the thing we can all agree on, though, is "**** the French".
