Post subject: Similarities between East and West

I know we have many differences. I believe though we have more in common though. All the post are about the differences, lets now share some of our commonalities. Lets tare down some emotional was.... let is out people. Come get a hug.

I will start.

We drive on the smae side of the road.

We like sex.

We love our children.

Of all Primates we have the biggest phallus.

Cars Rock.

We all have heads.

We all pee and poo.

We all have names.

We all die if cut in half.

We all breathe oxygen.


Man, this could be a really long thread! but I'll bet that it won't be. Smile

Ok I will add a more serious one.

All girls like the better man. The most effective measurement of some one is the money they make. Most girls are prefer wealthier guys.

No Fat chicks.

Teaching others/ sharing knowledge is vital to the human race.

Work is a Virtue.

common, like LM says, This could be really good or really short.

We all will be better if we find something.

We all love our families. When we are happy, we will may smile. When we are upset, we may cry. We like the kind man and dislike the bad man.

Give me a break....Chico State?
And you are going to damn all yanks based on one Chico State grad who somehow managed to find his way here?

N = 1


You give me this one...and I won't go down the "all Australians are like Paul Hogan" path! Shocked

Cheers!

(editors note....I would never admit it, face and all.
But most Americans are the most homophobic people I know.
Don't tell mat I said this though. Fuel for the fire and all...)

... I actually have no Idea how I got here. I passed out doing a keg stand and woke up in North Korea. That place was a downer so I hella went north to Yabuli looking for snowboarding and Hearbin beer and chicks. Hella. But when I got there I found no snow. I heard there was snow in the south so I came to shanghai looking for snow. Now it is today.

Hella

"No Fat Chicks"

"Work is Virtue"

We all have similar sayings but they are never followed.

New Zealand's only influence,in CI, is their queen. Which means f--- all.

But whatever helps you be right.

Sad Yes!!! but nobody cares.

I really like this topic I made. Can we all just get along.

My jokes are lame I know that but they are jokes and how much more effort does it take you to contribute to this conversation instead of insulting people.

Australians and Americans worship sports where taking some ones head off is very important.

Yes, you are correct....I have demonstrated many times with my brethren in Austalia against the wanton violence in Cricket.
