    You know, I discussed this with Mrs. SwoLy... the question in the thread title... :(
    white??? :confused:

    :p I kid. If you were black or "latino", you probably wouldn't have that problem, sir. I can understand how everyone else getting it and you not getting it could be a problem "around the world." Tough stuff.

    What is it that you don't get about "How to dance", in detail? You must first have some rhythm. Do you have this... rhythm?

    Yep...and half asian (even though I usually forget that), not sure this makes it any better ;).

    I agree - I had a Puerto Rican girlfriend once with younger siblings and it seemed like they were always dancing, even as little kids.

    Exactly!

    I think it's just that I can't really relax in that situation and feel like people are staring at me. Sounds stupid, I know, and it is.

    I don't get humor which makes fun of people. South Park is probably the worst offender for this type of humor. Jokes about someone's nationality, ethnicity, etc.. are pretty stupid too. One really common instance of this I've noticed on this BBS is making fun of Canadians ("aboot" etc..). Yeah, that's really clever. :rolleyes:

    I don't understand that crap at all.

    Highly disagree PC. It's in the top 10 and maybe top 5, but thats a big maybe. I live in San Diego and the last time I ate there was last year sometime. There's one down the street. I have driven about 40 min out of my way for Sonic's though.


    I agree on the Palin thing. She herself may not be a bad person, but her in a position of power scares me. Like you said though, its telling of our current climate and where the country stands. I'll leave it there before getting into D&D territory.

    The ex-Florida QB i was talking about was Tebow. I hate hearing about that kid. :mad:

    On Twilight, I remember my youth and from your list the only thing I was into was Saved by the Bell. My issue is that its not just teenagers into it. I just don't get the following.

    That reminds me, One more to add to the list.....

    -Teenagers

    Clarify, please...

    Are you saying it's bad to send truckloads of illegal aliens back to Mexico?

    Are you saying that we need to accept that Illegal Aliens are here, and that we can't control illegal immigration?

    Are you saying that, like the Native Americans, the United States has been taken over by illegal aliens and there's nothing we can do about it - we just need to accept it?
