    I am guessing that Iran is included in this group of Arabic countries as it is in the Middle East? The only thing is... Iran is not an Arabic country... “That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.” ― Christopher Hitchens

    Too predictable. Funny though. There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

    :thumbsup: The master of the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which; he simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both.

    Many of us here like offensive jokes, and take it in good fun if aimed toward us. Lots of people just won't upvote if they don't think it's funny, but understanding it's a joke will not downvote. You'll then have sensative people who will downvote, but overall it's not that many (if you're joke doesn't stink bad). If it's a decent joke, people will usually counter the 1 votes to help you out. Give it a shot, no harm in trying. One bad joke will not completely wreck your rep anyway. If it moves, compile it

    There's at least one deaf old world Tory somewhere that's misheard. He's banging his dispatch papers down on the bench shouting "Bravo, that'll teach the blighters, kill peasants to protect buzzards!"

    I noticed the two of you playing your silly game on the below thread had been unibombed but figured that may be legitimate, but then following either of you around the forums handing out extra punishment is just silly. Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.
