    [shrug] I laugh at the "Stupid American" jokes people post along with everything else as long as it's funny. Consider this more of a political cartoon then a racist joke.

    Actually I think it's in poor taste too. I hate all this French-bashing. When I was in the US I even got abuse on a couple of servers for having a French player name. Also in my clan's IRC room I had to unban *@*.fr a fair number of times. [censored] sickening, frankly.

    (and the name thing is all because that of barsteward Mouse stealin' my name)

    I think it's funny. The war on Iraq has made many people angry at France.

    I really hate political correctness.

    You're all missing the point here.

    It's not funny because it's anti-french.

    It's not funny because of the look on that guy's face.

    It's funny because this joke is so incredibly old and lame.

    Now everyone laugh at Comprox.

    And? I've heard mostly jokes about the French, because of how they acted during this war.
    I'm in America. Perhaps the jokes are based on demographics?

    EDIT: Oh, Spyder Monkey! So glad I saved it earlier...
