    I understand, man...I used to get angry when they wouldn't let me play Madden with them, too.

    Don't worry, after you get out of college, you'll never see those people again. You can sit in your efficiency apartment and watch all the cartoons you want, and nobody will bother you. Actually, nobody will talk to you, ever. Should be heaven.

    Of course it's perfectly OK to use terms like 'hets' and 'breeders'. Where would political correctness be, without the double standard?

    Funny, living in China as I do, I have yet to find a single instance of Hot and Sour soup. Or Moo Goo Gai Pan, or General Tso's Chicken, or so much as a single eggroll. You sure you're eating Chinese food? "China Chili"???

    Let me guess, you're an American.

    Nothing wrong with drawing conclusions before you write the article. It's done by all professional reporters.

    It wasn't "HUMOUR"(sic). It was some moron trying to show how cool he was because he speaks Japanese SOOO WELL that oh, he gets confused sometimes. Tee hee hee!

    Engrish school? I don't think we need to bring this discussion down to the level where we're flinging around racist insults of the Japanese people.

    Oh yeah right bullshit it wasn't intentional. "Oh, look at me...I'm soooo Japanese, I get confused when speaking English, hee hee hee".

    Are we speaking Japanese? No. We are speaking English. The Japanese currency is the Yen. Deal with it, and stop being a fanboy.

    What's an "en"?

    Is it anything like a "yen", which is the Japanese monetary unit? Either speak English, or speak Japanese.

    So...confirmation received that fabricating quotes is A-OK according to journalistic standards.

    Hint: a press release is journalism. They often end up printed verbatim in the newspaper.

    Why am I not surprised that fabricating quotes is a practice that journalists find acceptable.

    You sure you don't work for the BBC or New York Times?

    Yeah, I figured it was probably some guy who went for the "trendy" .cx domain so he could host his own with a linux box on a cablemodem or under his desk at work. Thus it's totally slashdotted.

    The Internet isn't a military, disruption-resistant network any more, and hasn't been for some time now. Most of the links go through the USA. Tracerouteing from Japan to the UK goes through America, etc.

    Good job with the knee-jerk anti-Americanism though. Always good for a few quick mod points.

    Well, just an FYI, but the Chinese embassy was bombed because the Chinese were using their transmitter to relay orders from Serbian military HQ in Belgrade to units in the field. See, NATO bombed all the big Serbian transmitters, thus cutting off the units in the field from their leadership. The Chinese began relaying the signals with their transmitter on the embassy grounds (an act of war) and NATO called their bluff and took it out of action.
