Heh. Payback for Jeremy Clarkson basically sh!tting on anyone not British! (Nice guy, btw, met him at the Nürburgring a few years back.)

PS: Is that threatening 'smiley' even legal in the UK these days?

Jeremy Clarkson can be an embarrassment anytime he opens his cakehole in public.
However as you say off camera he is a nice guy ,bumped into him in Chipping Norton several years ago. Nurburgring eh, what was your time?
Your remark made me burst out laughing ,all I had in my head was ‘The English Book of Teeth’ off the Simpsons.
Having been to that area of China ,years ago ,I think it made the whole thing disproportionately funny.
I have a concealed carry licence for the smiley.

You’re arguing with people who think Jesus.

Futility.

[dragnet2]

Not sure what that means, but thanks.

At lot of these “new” species stories stink of phrenology.

Most of the geriatrics on FR are frightened and mired in the Bronze Age. Anything that disagrees with the idea that the earth is older than 6000 years is of the debbil.

/Personally, I think there are five distinct human strains.
//My anthropologist friends say seven. What do I know?

[eyedigress]

What does that mean? I have coins going back to 10,000 BC.

[warchild9]

Fundamentalist Christians believe that the earth was created in 4004 BC.

Wiki up James Ussher.

The majority of Freepers believe this.

You don’t know much about religious kooks, hm?

[eyedigress]

You seem to know nothing about Christ or religion.

Thanks for playing.

Based on the reduced capacity of the cranial vault, I would consider this just another subspecies of Homo liberalensis.

Are you going to join the fight for open carry?

[moose07]

For smilies?
Oh, yes!
Open carry of firearms and smilies should be a human right not just a constitutional one.
LOL

“Most of the geriatrics on FR are frightened and mired in the Bronze Age. Anything that disagrees with the idea that the earth is older than 6000 years is of the debbil.”

What makes you think those people are old?

“Fundamentalist Christians believe that the earth was created in 4004 BC. Wiki up James Ussher. The majority of Freepers believe this.”

What are you, a leftard mole?

“You don’t know much about religious kooks, hm?”

I know a lot about secular kooks, and I’m posting to one now.

(But why post to a kook, I ask myself? I guess it’s just the stunning idiocy of the claim that “The majority of Freepers believe this.” Mouth-frothing lunacy of that stripe demands contradiction.)

“Open carry of firearms...should be a human right not just a constitutional one.”

Open carry of firearms *is* a human right.

[moose07]

Glad we agree on that.
