In order to redress the balance of History, however, given all the evil deeds the US has performed, I suggest we clone Hitler's brain and re-instate a pan-European Nazi super-state. This coupled with the inevitable power struggle with the Soviet Union means we would have to kill a goodly portion of the worlds citizens in gruesome and horific ways. May I suggest death-camps, head-in-toilet flushing and toenail extraction (hot pokers wouldn't go amiss too)?

Also, I will be throwing the majority of my material goods out the window since they are made in the US, or are based on US technology. I just looked at my underpants - they're gonna have to go to.

Well, you asked for it.

:D
Actually, that sounds a lot like my old high school. :D

Please keep your underwear on, Grunty. For all our sakes. :) :eek:

Well no McDonalds for me.
trying to get of MS.
Holllywood?
What are you crazy?
I want to See SW 2 and LOTR 2 as well.

On a serious note Weasel. Nothing is perfect, for everything there are valid and not so valid criticisms. Just because you don't agree with it you shouldn't boycott it. Trying to change it is better.

It is like the present Pakistani referendum. 70% boycotted on the call of the political parties. It would have served their interets better for that 70% to vote no and then blame Mussaharaf for rigging the election. Only 30% voted and out of the 30% 90% voted yes, so he can easily say the people voted for him to stay in power.

Yup. They put it into the head of the Director of Upper School, a woman called Mrs. Abbott. :D

You realise that if I was to boycott the US, I would have to boycott Gamebanshie and miss out on SYM. How would I get through a day at work without spam and opinions? (Or is that spammy opinoins?) :D

Nothing is wrong with that. What is wrong is that his @#$% OS sucks big time, and that he has marketed it so well and managed to almost monopolise it so it's very difficult to totally get rid of. I agree with Robnark, I hold Billy boy personally responsible for every problem I've had with my Windows machines, for every hour I've been forced to spend on reinstallation, bug fixing, and solving a million other problems. :mad:
