Well, depends on what kind of "pop" - I'm not really a pop drinker.....do you mean coke, pepsi, seven-up????

I can't read your mind sweetie.....I thought you were referring to the talk about political elections, etc., you need to be specific about what you are referring too - I know I'm a woman and of irish/polish stock......but I'm not God..........

I knew what "taking a pop" meant......that was a smart-ass reply (and not bad considering I did it off the top of my head).....but my answer still remains......you need to be specific when you leave a message so that folks know what you are referring too.....how was to know that you were referring to racist remarks......I thought you meant the political talk.....again I can't read your mind!!!!!

So before you annoy me any further.....and I lose my temper I think it's time to watch the hockey game!!!!!

Will...you are going back to your old ways again, I need to have a word with Jim If am using terms you don't understand, that is because am a brit, and most brits are accustomed with certain phrases, and why things are the way they are in the UK.

You have the option to ignore my threads/posts you know, especially when they are not directed at you

More games.......I understand your terms only too well.....but it's obvious you don't understand mine........so I will try to explain to you as I would to my 4 year old.....grow up, be a man and stop playing games, it's annoying to say the least.

When you're capable of having an intelligent conversation please let me know!!!!

This coming from you? This is the thing, most of my posts are not directed towards you, you just tend to jump in there with both feet. Will I be asking too much if I ask you to please put me on your ignore list?

I do not play games, especially with strangers

Dude, you can't ASK for that to be done, you have to earn the right to unilateral rejection.

Work harder at being irritating and you might achieve multilateral rejection too

l am a 1st generation Chinese born in the U.S.. However, my experiences in the U.S. have not been pleasant. l am disturbed by the conservatism in the U.S. and looking for a more progressive atmosphere. l was hoping to come to Canada this Autumn for a holiday work visa. l read a post here that said that the Chinese, English, and Hindus are the bottom 3 and most hated in Canada. What does that mean? Why do Canadians hate the Chinese? l also read that Canadians love Americans. Why? Americans are so imperialist. Why would Canadians like that. l thought Canadians stood for the antithesis of USA.

I don't know where you get that info about the bottom 3. It definately has not been my experience. Right now Americans may be closer to the bottom for reelecting Bush.

I think the list was a *joke* in the first place ... can't say I'm aware of any real anti-Brit racism in Canada ... once you've released your grip on the old Brit baggage and swept that chip off your shoulder of course.

I'm sure I'll get lynched for making the comment ... but as far as I can tell, Canada is a lot less racist than either the UK or US ... there isn't anything holding you back apart from yourself
