    I doubt that.

    Ah, there's that psedo-superiority complex raising it's ugly head, again.

    I love it!

    Keep talking, you get funnier with every post.

    You just can't accept that your education is slightly subpar and acknowledge that with your super power there are things you can do about it, rather than hold each individual accountable. I suppose your lack of understanding of the human condition lends greatly to your lack of education as well. I suppose it's sort of a catch 22.
    wow. and who is the arrogant one? I go to sleep every night being so thankful that I got to have another day with your message board presence. really, you bring so much to the table with your made of stories of a tough childhood and supreme understanding of the inner workings on the human brain. I will lay my head down tonight knowing how blessed I am to have crossed paths again with Ahnimus the Great

    Considering your tales of such a horrid childhood and such horrid treatment from your fellow canadien citizens; I find you comments of sueriority in intelligence and a nicer disposition....to be laughable.

    Not that I believe there's a shred of truth in your comments about Americans who live right over the border, but don't know where Canada is. But I get a huge kick out of how oblivious you are to your own hypocrisy.

    Here's a guy who goes apeshit when Muslims are spoken of in stereotypes and generalizations, but is completely oblivious to his own stereotypes and generalizations. Hilarious! You can't make this shit up.....this shit sells itself!

    So the lesson for today kiddies, is............

    Muslims or Canadiens can not and should not be stereotyped.

    But it's okay to do so when speaking of Americans.

    LMAO!:D:D:D

    A lot of Canadians are stupid. A joke my Dad says "10,000 Newfies move to Quebec and it raises the IQ in both provinces." that's to say Newfies are stupid, but smarter than Quebecers. I tell you though, those newfies have some really clever jokes about newfies.

    The majority of Canadian intelligence is in B.C. and that's mostly because of the huge asian populations. The caucasian canadian people are typically just as stupid as americans or europeans.

    I completely accept that our education up to 12th grade is lacking in many areas. On the other hand, you can recieve a great college education in the states. Your lack of knowledge of sociology lends greatly to the fact that you think you are god of knowledge.................in which the the opposite has been proven.

    This thread really gave me a good laugh. The piece is a comedy bit, nothing to get upset about.

    Of course it's a comedy bit. No different than the comedy bits Americans do about Canadiens and people of other countries.

    But here we have Ahnimus doing his own bit on stereotypes and hypocrisy, and THAT is funny.......coming from him.

    "Y'all", huh? Now you're speaking my language. ;)

    How's this for an education, Ahnimus? Not only am I a prouct of the American education system, I'm also a product of Mississippi and Alabama public schools systems. You up for an IQ challenge?

    Ahnimus is the master of the twisted word and tall tales.

    Keep an eye on your wallet and never let your fingers leave your knuckles:D:D:D

    Ah, the price of honesty and openness. This is why men aren't as open and honest as women would typically like. Because other men will ultimately hold it against them for the rest of time. I wouldn't doubt if a 1000 years from now you could still read a book by Jlew about how this Ahnimus guy whined about his childhood. Rather than seeing at as personal reflection for educational purposes, you see it as whining. Good job. That reinforces my opinion of you quite nicely.

    I agree. This thread humors me because we are getting both sides of the coin. On one side you have short-sided generalizations and on the other side you have a bunch of 'stick-in-the-mud' Americans who can't take a joke.

    Depends on what it is. First of all IQ is representative of knowledge, typically algebraic knowledge and not the ability to reason or aquire knowlege.

    So, what did you have in mind?

    I can't speak for the other Americans in this thread.

    But this is one American who's getting a huge laugh out this for some of the reasons you mentioned and the fact that some of the things being said here, are coming from Ahnimus. His track record speakes for itself and he's certainly inserted foot and mouth, as well as talked out of both corners of his mouth.

    Funny stuff!

    I knew you'd be up to the challenge!!! To be honest, I'm not really sure. I'm damn good at mathematics (esp differential equations & calculus) & chemistry. Although that's probably due to my top-notch southern-american education. ;) Let me think about what would be a fair and adequate challenge and I'll get back to you.

    Oh, so now you are rounding up your posse to trash me? lol

    You may have a posse of CorpWhore and Miller, but that's hardly a lot. Secondly, I honestly don't care how a flag-waving moron like you feels about me.

    See you in hell Jlew.
