All,

I'm the one who "flamed" Ole, although I did so in private, and it had nothing whatsoever to do
with "political correctness".

I Find nothing at all worthwhile in an adolescent racial slur that had not the slightest bit of
humor in it. There's plenty of humour on this board. some of it is clever, some of it is crude,
but it's all humour.

What is funny about "Hundee trannee no workee? Needs rice juice!" to anyone over the age of
eight?

Joe

Humor is of course in the mind of the reader, listener.
Personally, I thought it was kind cute. It made me smile, but I also
like Sam Kinison, and even some of Dice Clay's material. Since the
original post had No British car content at all, it probably should have
been posted somewhere else.
We have the freedom of our first amendment to protect all of us.
This also brings with it the need for tolerance of the exorcising of
this right. I don't like anything about the neo-Nazi Skin head groups,
BUT, I'm not willing to give up my rights just to see them silenced.
It's a choice.

Hey Joe,

I'm over 8 and I find it humorous. It obviously makes
play on the ethnic tendency of a certain Asiatic people
to add the long "e" sound to all English words. Combined
with the nortoriously poor quality
of the automotive product of that Asian country and the staple food,
the line is a clever ethnic joke. I personnally enjoy cleverness,
including ethnic jokes, and even Polish jokes, then again I never tried
to
force my beliefs or feelings on anyone else.

Joe,

'What is funny about "Hundee trannee no workee? Needs rice juice!"

You missed the point, Ole can't spell! It's actually "Huunndeee traanneee no
workeee?"

All in good humour,

Jeff

Since this list knows no national boundaries, we don't all have the
luxury of such freedoms.



I enjoyed Ole's original post. Personally I think the best jokes are
those at the expense of myself or my fellow countrymen, but people tell
me I have a strange sense of humour.

I can't think of any good Ausie jokes. However, you are correct
in regards to my oversight. This IS a global list, or perhaps even a
Galalactic list, Hello ET?, so it is very true that not everyone here
will have the reference to the laws that we do have here in the States.
My apologies to those of you outside of the U.S.,..........and off world
as well. The Internet is truely free, except for the price $$$ Ooops,
there I go again, using non-global Dollar signs. Is there a generic
monitary simbol for currency? eye rolling smiley
