Pi, it was a joke. J-O-K-E I know we Americans have a crude sense of humor. Put our lack of refinement down to our lack of proximity to the French. Maybe we should annex Luxemburg after the French nuke us, and send our young there to learn some manners. Then the US could be a kinder gentler super power. :cool:

That'd be like strapping a pillow on a bull in a china shop..

AlaMode Baby. :love:

I'm not sure there is such a thing as racist. It's all simply tribalism. My tribe is better that yours, etc..

Every time I take a look at the cellar, I find a discussion in which you try to explain why you don't like the French and France and most part of Europe in general. It's rather disturbing and no sign of respect and tolerance. Even if you consider it as a joke!

me? I like the French.. after all I make my living doing their cooking.. good stuff.. and all I have to say, is that someone needs to nuke us.. well maybe not us here, but this country need a wake up call *ring ring uh fat bastard time to put down the mc. rib and walk a bit* (although I do have a guilty pleasure in the mc.rib) but our country has become a nation of fat lazy bastrds/beeyothes... let them flames begin I'll stand by this statement and take all comers.

do any of you play civ 1 or 2?

For some reason the song IKO IKO came into my head...

My flag boy and your flag boy
sittin' by the fire
My flag boy said to your flag boy
"I'm gonna set your flag on fire!"

Hey now.

It's a good thing you can't find the secret Luxembourg thread. :lol:
Lighten up Pi, if we really didn't like them, we wouldn't discuss them at all.

see the french at least have thick skins - they can take a joke. hell, they deified jerry lewis.

luxembourg... apparently can't take it, so we don't have any open threads for you all - those are kept in the "members only"area.


now how manyof you cellarites said, "members only? HOT DAMN! i knew i kept that jacket for a reason"?

Well, the answer to your question is actually simple. Let's go back to when the Japanese dropped bombs upon Pearl Harbor, what exactly did our president do when they did that? We nuked Japan right away, therefore, if the French ever nukes us by "accident"(a word that i dont believe in), Mr. President Bush will probably take on with a-bombs too.

wait...but how can we do anything if the rest of us will be dead by then I BELIEVE haha

and No one is racist in this forum! we love everyone :D

gotta love the legions. their training is the roughest in the world. even your american troops go over to train with them, only thing is, they leave, the legions continue. american troops hold weapons but the legions are trained weapons WITH weapons.

australian SAS troops are my favourite though. not just cause they protect my country, but they can accomplish any task you give them and do it well.

We didn't actually nuke them right away.. there was this little thing called "The War in the Pacific" that happened inbetween.

Four years of R&D is not quite "right away."

We had to build them first.

And it's really a fascinating story.

If I may recommend, The Making of the Atomic Bomb.
