Look at the spoiled brat talking out of his ass again.

First of all, just cause your mom popped you out as soon as she hit puberty doesnt mean all the people around here had teenage moms.
Secondly, Food is more then FUEL , you moron. Cooking and serving GOOD food is an art. Something you will never understand cause of the scandinavian genes in you.... no doubt someone peed in that gene pool

There are many people who eat very unhealthy and dont take care of themselves,,, more so in US than in Europe...... but there is also a great way to BALANCE things and ENJOY your meals, while you also live a healthy life. Not all people eat fast food like you think. Theres a lot more to great food than your
one-sided vistion. Fast food is generally not only nasty but not even great tasting,,,,, I have had salmon the norweigian way and it tastes like shit.
You can use some imagination and add some FLAVOR to the damn food and make it a flavor party in your mouth , rather than having a fucking bland fish, swimming in your mouth with the same flavor it has in a fucking bear's mouth.

Last but not least, you came here for a visit as a guest. Dont like what you see? Then I suggest using that return ticket and get the fuck back to the shit hole you came from, where guys piss in girls mouth and girls dont know what this is :

Listen up you ugly, Swedish little midget; now you've pissed me off. I keep it civil and you come in here, as you usually does, with some retarded conspiracy theories or some wannabe Deano post. You're not the self appointed king of this place; you're a keyboard jockey, who contribute nothing to this board at all.

First of all; don't talk shit about my mom. She's a respected neonatal surgeon, and she has provided more love, care and help in this world than you'll ever, ever do. Last time I did that to someone here, it became a national crisis and I recall you were one of the people who pointed out that talking shit about ones family is uncalled for. I could go that route too, but I won't. Man, seriously; you got no shame. Why did you have to ruin this topic? And how in the blue hell is that a good post? It's just a load of shit! You guys are a bunch of bigots.

My dad is French, and my mom is half Norwegian, half Italian - and I've been in France three months every year, and lived in France the first years of my lives and for the last two. Almost my entire family live in Cannes, though some live in La Réunion (Google it), Norway and Italy. I know what good food tastes like, and that's not fried, overly seasoned crap. It's supposed to be natural, fresh and tasty. I don't expect a retard like you Beshad, to understand that food isn't so important, as the company you eat with - after all, you're just a pot bellied uncultured nobody.

Now, are you seriously talking shit about my gene pool? Are you serious, man? I want you to go in the mirror and take a hard good look at yourself. You see that ugly, receding hairline? And your narrow, beady eyes? What about those ugly ass teeth you got? Not to mention the 20 pounds extra blubber you got strapped around your waist and face. Fucking hell, dude; you're ugly! You're a ugly, pudgy, big eared loser! It's time you realize what's reality and what's not. Look at me, and look at you, man. I'd gladly beat your fat, worthless ass into a bloody pulp, but the next best thing is to helping you realize who and what you really are.

Dude, I've done more, seen more and experienced more in my 19 years, than you have or ever will. Don't ever talk to me again on this board, man. Ever.

Punk ass kid.

You calling me a Swede midget is as like me calling you a Russian. Take it as an insult or compliment.

We are having our fun here and we do respect eachother,,,, but your super wise mom and super drunk dad shouldve taught you some fucking maners. You come here , where people twice your age post here frequently and you have no shame or no desire to show some fucking respect, so you will get your ass kicked anytime you act like this, till you learn some maners, you understand?

You come to this country to visit and youve said nothing but negative,,, then get the fuck back to France and enjoy the smelly armpits of your girlfriend. We dont want you here, if you are only here to critisize the way we live.....

And not that I give a fucking shit what you think about my weight and height, but to make it clear for your dumb ass, I weight about 79 kg and 180 cm,, so you call that overweight, you skinny mimbo !? (mimbo =male bimbo ) ....

And another thing you seem to be uneducated about is that , I am one of the most cultutal people on this board.I can guarantee you that you havent done or seen a 3rd of what I have seen, kid. Thats why youre so naive and THINK youve seen it all and chose to put people down cause your dumbass brain thinks you know it all.,.... I have lived in 3 counties and I have taken the best from all three, while still looking deeper into other cultures to LEARN from them (good or bad) , instead of just sterotyping them and putting everyone down, like you do.....

You got the balls, get into one of the restaurants while youre in Florida and scream out your worthless opinions and then we will see who is the nobody after theyre done with you. You piece of shit scum, you come here brag about knowing shit, well you may know to speak 2 different languages but you sure as hell know nothing about maners and respect those older than you. Hell you dont even know how to respect your girlfriend or even yourself.

Civil enough for you, peepeeBarfait?

My posting style is pretty over the top and semi ridiculous. However, if you go back and read my posts to "him," it wasn't at all mean spirited or evil. I have never been mean spirited or hateful to a guy who did a great deal for me during my son's funeral and a personal hard time in my life. Perhaps I should have used a smiley face or some other emoticon, IDK. It's his choice to post the way he did to me. I am a big boy and can handle it, but a friendship was absolutely just severed, and it was hurtful; not because of what he said, because I can be 100 times more "mean" but I feel I do it without the definitive, direct hate like was just thrown at me. Not too worry, because this thread is not about me, it's about the country. At least I now know where I stand with him, and that's that.

I can understand that. But maybe it's time for you to realize that even if the people you are mean spirited or hateful toward have not done anything to help you during rough times in your life, it's still hurtful when you do it.

It seems to me he makes things up about people and attacks them in ways that are meant to be humorous and not necessarily true. For someone such as Stu, who dean regards as a friend, to say what he did, and then saying "the truth hurts" was not the same thing. I think MOST people see a difference, but I don't expect YOU to.

as friends, I thought stu really crossed a line towards dean in a couple of parts of his posts. i get stu is very emotional over the passage of the healthcare bill and emotions run high on this subject, but maybe that post should have been more tempered regarding the personal remarks.

I don't mind helping children ...I donate many, many hours to helping children, they are my passion!!
But people have got to learn to help themselves and they have to want to help themselves. Someone
has to teach this to our young or they will grow up, like their parents, believing that their welfare
is the responsibility of everyone but themselves!!

Does anyone remember when families helped each other in times of need and crisis?!?!?
When we didn't rely on a system, but each other?!?! When communities banned together?!?
When children took care of their aging parents and grandparents and their grown children if
need be?!?! I know that if I lost everything today I could show up on the doorstep of any
family member and I would be taken care of until I got on my feet!! I also know that I would
not be allowed to sit on my ass and expect a government to take care of me. These
are some of the values I grew up with and I think they are very much lacking in this world today!!
The children, yes lets take care of the children, but are we really helping in the long run?!?
I want to know about the looooong haul!!!

Woah, I didn't expect you to have some decent points, but you do. The problem is that you're basically saying that every person who "needs welfare" is in fact just lazy, and needs to work. That's ridiculous. One shouldn't be lenient with the ones who's lazy. But come on MG, your mindset just speaks for itself. It's egotistical.

The thing that'll cost you tax payers the most isn't a slightly higher tax, but the effects of the growing obesity epidemic. That'll slowly but surely cripple the health care system, as well as the job market. If the government had some balls, it would put some bad ass taxes on unhealthy crap food, and force its citizens to eat healthy. That'll solve a shit loads of problems right there, as well as prevent even more.

1.) You've got to be kidding me/yourself?!?!
2.) Absolutely, I should have clarified! Those that want to help themselves and try to help themselves are the very people I would
give my last dime to!!
3.) The food thing ...yeah, I can see you have a burr up your ass about our eating habits and I agree!!
4.) You have got to be kidding me ...

Parfait, you speak of our obesity problem. But you don't truly know the problems that lead to it. Our schools have starchy unhealthy meals. Why? Cost. Good food.......healthy food is more expensive. The poor can eat cheeper with bad food. Chicken, fish, vegetables........these are expensive. Junk food feeds hungry stomaches cheeper. When good food can become more affordable, then people will eat better.

Fast food joints increased the size of their portions, making people feel as if they need to eat it all. I was raised to "clean my plate". I don't teach my children that. I teach them to push away when they begin to feel full.

Our old system of the food pyramid taught high carbs, and did not stress vegetables and fruit. A great deal of Americans were raised to eat badly. Not to mention the south, where if it could be eaten it was fried. Soul food, comfort food, all the ways people ate when they were raised on a farm and worked physically from sunup to sundown, was passed on to children who got jobs behind a desk. These children still cook like mom and dad.

Not to mention that our lifestyles leave us little time to exercise. I know as a teacher I seldom get the oportunity to exercise. I am on my feet walking around my classroom all day. I sometimes work from 7:30 am to 6-9 pm doing grading and class prep. I get up at 4:30 am because I have to get ready and drive an hour and fifteen minutes to work. And on the nights I work till 6-9pm that does not include the long drive home. Then you are looking at 7:15-10:15 pm before I can even get home. Then I have responsibilites to clean house and feed my family.

Bullshit, MG. I make valid points.

And a4p; it's like that in every country in the world. People are slowly killing them self all over the world, and it's becoming a huge problem. Some healthy food is more expensive true, but far from everything is. Supplements isn't necessary, except for concentrated cod liver oil, which everyone should take each day, but that's about it. Fast food isn't cheaper than healthy food; that's just not true. It's all about changing routines, for example; change normal hot dogs for turkey hot dogs, pasta and white rice with barley and whole grain rice etc. The problem is that the government (that includes France's) doesn't got enough balls to tax shit food, so that people would be forced to eat healthy. Sure, a lot would whine about the government taking away their right to choose, but who cares - it's that right to choose who fucked them up in the first place.

I'm sorry, but even a couple of extra dollars isn't more important than your own health! It's truly sad how many people are willing to ruin their life just cause they love cookies and burgers. I honestly don't get it.

You absolutely do, I'm not saying you didn't ...but I'm LMAO~hot head!!

I don't care if it's made up or not, it's still uncalled for.

I don't know what pisses me off more, the fact that he does it or the fact that people say it's OK because it's Dean. There are always excuses being made for him.

Its not really about taking sides. Knowing both of them, even in the little way I do, and I just think that Stu got heated up over something he was passionate about and he said some things that really weren't even belonging in the argument to begin with. I don't think Stu is a bad guy. I think his anger just got the best of him. That's how it seems to me anyway. But I see a difference in what he did and I was just voicing that

Nope, I have no problem being the butt of the joke. You are right, most of the guys here do it but Dean is the only one that gets a free pass to do it.

It seems to me he makes things up about people and attacks them in ways that are meant to be humorous and not necessarily true. For someone such as Stu, who dean regards as a friend, to say what he did, and then saying "the truth hurts" was not the same thing. I think MOST people see a difference, but I don't expect YOU to.

I don't care if it's made up or not, it's still uncalled for.

I don't know what pisses me off more, the fact that he does it or the fact that people say it's OK because it's Dean. There are always excuses being made for him.

i don't agree with the way dean posts all the time, far from it. I've been the brunt of it. this was different, it was a FRIEND who in one spot went personally ugly in his post in a disdainful manner that seemed more apporpriate for pm.

Can't we all just get a bong?

Good idea ! Well not all of us... PeePee is of minor age,,, so he will have to just in the middle and inhale what we exhale

I don't know, B... with you being a "midget", he's not going to be able to catch your outtake.
French Piss calling B a midget... you gotta love that.

So where did he see this midget picture of B? Who was he standing next to? Dan?

No, he's just shooting his mouth off wanting to sound all big. Again.

Dude, I've done more, seen more and experienced more in my 19 years, than you have or ever will. Don't ever talk to me again on this board, man. Ever.

You absolutely do not mean this ...your exchanges with "B" are both entertaining and enlightening!!
You are both very informative ...grow up!!

[StevePerryHair]

It's not okay because it's "Dean". MOST guys here do that sort of thing. Not just Dean. And maybe you have a problem with it because you are at the "butt" of it most times. But my guess is there is a reason for that too

Nope, I have no problem being the butt of the joke. You are right, most of the guys here do it but Dean is the only one that gets a free pass to do it.

Not true AT ALL. Do you see anyone giving B hell for what he said to parfait? Or anyone attacking parfait for his choice of uncalled for words? Making jokes, yes, saying we think he should grow up, yes. Everyone here gets a free pass to say what they want. Its what makes a message board a message board. The only one who can sensor that is Andrew. People here make JOKES. Yes, sometimes mean spirited. I have a HARD time believing your feelings actually get hurt by things these guys say. You've been here long enough to know it's not mean spiritedness as much as it is joking around,. And when it gets to the point where it's not joking around, the person often times deserves it. I don't think Dean did for his argument in THIS particular thread.

[Michigan Girl]

My posting style is pretty over the top and semi ridiculous. However, if you go back and read my posts to "him," it wasn't at all mean spirited or evil. I have never been mean spirited or hateful to a guy who did a great deal for me during my son's funeral and a personal hard time in my life. Perhaps I should have used a smiley face or some other emoticon, IDK. It's his choice to post the way he did to me. I am a big boy and can handle it, but a friendship was absolutely just severed, and it was hurtful; not because of what he said, because I can be 100 times more "mean" but I feel I do it without the definitive, direct hate like was just thrown at me. Not too worry, because this thread is not about me, it's about the country. At least I now know where I stand with him, and that's that.

as friends, I thought stu really crossed a line towards dean in a couple of parts of his posts. i get stu is very emotional over the passage of the healthcare bill and emotions run high on this subject, but maybe that post should have been more tempered regarding the personal remarks.

As friends it's not our business to pass judgment on either one of them ...it's wrong, wrong, wrong to take sides
in situations like this ...I hope they work it out!! They are both great guys, from what I can tell
from this side of my screen!!

Its not really about taking sides. Knowing both of them, even in the little way I do, and I just think that Stu got heated up over something he was passionate about and he said some things that really weren't even belonging in the argument to begin with. I don't think Stu is a bad guy. I think his anger just got the best of him. That's how it seems to me anyway. But I see a difference in what he did and I was just voicing that

You know them personally ...I can't speak for you!!
It's those of us that DO NOT, yet judge!!

Well, basically in a nutshell, everyone is fat, stupid, ugly, smelly, retarded, mean, lazy & rude. And nobody is supposed to talk to anybody ever again.

wow stu, pretty harsh there. there is something to be said for an honest days work even if the pay is not at your level. being critical of others is fine i suppose, but we don't always know the back story.

I know the backstory...I know Dean is capable of more, much more...he CHOOSES to be what he is...

I will never respond to a post nor a PM by you ever again.

Go love somebody else like a brother. That was a rather hurtful post by someone who I held in the absolute highest regard here. I have nothing ever again to say to you.

...I hope you reconsider!!
