Let's try this one last time. If you don't answer the question in a

fashion
judged to be sensible by me and perhaps DSK, we'll all interpret it to

mean
that you are finally admitting that you're wrong. Ready?


No. I get to choose one of the "judges". Someone impartial...like Wally or
Joe.

I imagine these same ****wits who are insisting
"Grecian" is correct also still want to call Asians
"Orientals".

Asians *are* orientals you idiot.




Why don't you try running the term "Oriental" by the next few Asians you
meet and see sort of reaction you get?


Here's a neat link, Doug. The term "Oriental" rates a big, fat ZERO on

the
"disparagement scale" of the "Offensiveness Quotient".

Two strikes. You do not get an accurate view of the world from the web,
either. I told you to try using the term on some living, breathing Asians.
Do it.

Since I asked you for 10 examples, your judge only needs to be able to
count. Choose Wally if you like, but I'd suggest someone who fits the
aforementioned criterion, counting to 10.

Geez, I couldn't imagine how awful it would be to live in bumfoch-Georgia
and have to drive nearly 70 miles just to use your boat in a *lake*. Ich.
Who the hell would even think about living in such a place...besides
in-breeders?



Again, proving yourself a dolt. Atlanta is a great place to live. Ever
wonder why it is such a metropolis? World class theater, world class
restaurants, great music scene, I can be in the mountains in one hour,
at the beach in 3.5. Can you?
[snip remaining civic boosterism]


A place NEVER is "world class" just because the local
yokels are saying it is. A place doesn't become world
class until people OUTSIDE the area are saying it.

NO ONE outside Atlanta is calling it a "world class"
anything, except maybe a world class ********.

Look at the definition of "oriental" in ANY on-line
dictionary (we know you don't own a printed one). The
definition meaning "Asian person" is ALWAYS indicated
as offensive. Always.

Educated and enlightened people don't use it, ever, to
talk about Asians. Never.

Jackie Chan--"They Still Call Me Bruce" (1987)



Remember what I told you earlier about my having about 40 years more
education than you? You've just provided a perfect example of why I said
that. You do NOT get an accurate view of the world from movies.



Relax, Doug. It was a comedy.

Did you go to the link I provided? Sure, the term "oriental" is not used as
much as "asian" in this PC-out-of-control World of ours, but falls about as
low on the "offensive meter" as a word can fall.

Please point out 10 examples of "Grecian" being used in the last 100 years
to describe Greeks. Poetry is not an option, nor are examples where
"Grecian" was used as an affectation. And, your president's example is not
allowed in the list of 10. The correct examples would be news sources,
especially if one or more of them involved actual persons of Greek origin
discussing themselves or their culture.


Is that the new 'pass-fail' criteria now? If you and/or DSK don't approve, then
no one in the group approves? I don't remember subscribing to that philosophy!

Where do b'asskisser, ****turd, and Harry fit into this scheme? Don't one of
them have to judge the sensibility also?

I don't think "They Still Call Me Bruce" was offered in written format.
I'll be sure to check next time I'm at my local library.
