JERK ..

Watch out, daniel - people around here wouldn't know a sense of humor if it slapped them in the face.

Let's start with you and find out.

If you're trying to insult somebody, try to at least make sense, okay?

He was never a fighter was he.. He was probably some sort of protester .. rebel type...


I recall a lecture back in college where the professor cited some record were Jesus was reputed to have incited a riot in a Jerusalem market, personally joining the fray using a whip. A whip might not have the same deadly results as an axe or a sword, but it's definetly a implement that specializes in pain creation - something that doesn't fall in line with your standard peaceful protestor mentality IMO.
Now I need to find that reference, it's going to bug me all day.

And it really doesn't help when American women get all wet around French guys. It's pretty much the same think with the baboons from red states hating liberals.

I dunno, seemed like every female in my highschool who went on a class trip to France was throroughly disgusted by the hygeine and overrall manners of the French male. There were some real horror stories. I think said wetness could be more accurately attributed to the presence of outgoing Italian dudes. ;)
But, your second stereotype is unfortunetly quite true in my experience. :(


Send in the Lancers!

Pretty sure The Hammer didn't have any cavalry of note at the time, which is good as Tours might have turned out quite differently if he had! (the Moors were better on horses I think, in addition to having better horses). But I get what you mean ;)

Ah, but it's only the Union Jack if it's flown aboard a ship. Otherwise it's the Union Flag.
