Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

Sister Basilissa, we do seem to have gone badly off-topic here (I blame that Duct Girl person) but that article points out an interesting fact:

There are also wide variations within every country, and it's difficult to compare a large heterogeneous country such as the United States with small homogeneous countries such as the Netherlands, they say.

It is no surprise that the United States, being a hetero country, is much larger than the Nether-lands (that name always makes me giggle ), which is a homer country. I mean, it only stands to reason that homers cannot bear Soldiers for Christ and therefore must rely on immigration to increase their population. And few people want to go there.

The article goes on to say:

The effect of immigration can last generations.

In the case of height, this is especially true if most of your immigrants come from the lanky Mooslim tribes of Kenya.



Those of them who have (thankfully) failed to gain entry to the United States - and I am glad that the US has finally cracked down on them coming into the country, taking good American jobs (such as that of President ) - tend to head for Holland with its unrivaled dyke-leaping contests.

1 Samuel 16:7 tells us all we need to know about The Lord's opinion of the oversized Nether-landers.

It almost sounds as if you are proud of that.

Of course I am, dear. Americans are the golden standard of perfectly sized people; all others are either malnourished midgets or overgrown freaks (like the Dutch).

I'm told that four Polish people can fit into that toy. (However, one average-sized American would fill the whole thing).

Yes, if there are roads then the bicycle is how you get somewhere in a hurry in Catlick Italy. In even-more-Catlick-Spain, where there are fewer roads, the peasants travel on foot. I am told that in Poland, the ass remains the preferred method of transport - obviously this is mere hearsay, as I have never visited that Godless hellhole.

Polish asses are certainly easy to ride, but from what I understand, castrated cattle is the transportation choice of preference.


Here is a typical Polish guy with his "car." Being Polish, he runs behind it instead of riding.

However, Polish also have developed a large toy car, but they didn't take this idea one step further into making a real car:


(It's actually a Polish toy version of the Italian Fiat).

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

In other words, if someone wants to get somewhere quickly, taking the bicycle or even walking briskly is preferable to taking the train (1 mi/20 minutes = 3 mi/hr)?

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

(This is in fact absolutely true. The Italian trains do run on time, mostly. It is surprisingly easy to do this, if you arrange the schedule so as to allow 20 minutes per mile traveled.

How different from our Godly country, where aside from a few big cities there is no public transportation, everybody has a car, and posted speed limits on the highways are more sort of loose guidelines rather than actual requirements!

I'm sure French made those Pendolinos just to piss people off!

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

Nonsense! We in Britain have a saying: "You can say what you like about Mussolini, but at least he made the trains run on time."

(This is in fact absolutely true. The Italian trains do run on time, mostly. It is surprisingly easy to do this, if you arrange the schedule so as to allow 20 minutes per mile traveled. The British railway system, with its hopelessly optimistic timetables, has much to learn from the Eyetalians.)

The explanation for problems in this eskimo-land might be the -30 (-22 °F) degrees wintertime, which God almost every winter in His Great Wisdom gives us Job 37:10

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

Yes, only problem with those italian trains is that they have no notion of time

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

The trains are made in Italy.

Italy? Maybe the surrender monkeys are afraid of a little invasion from north-east. They might think about a comfortable way to surrender and escape really fast through Italy. Instead of running as fast as they can with arms wide open they could use trains, waving white flags out of the windows Of course when they reach the sea they have the next problem but frogs are known to be exellent swimmers.

You have a train in Finland? Well done! Or do you just have the tracks?

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

Who knows, maybe they were thinking ahead to the time when France surrenders to Putin (one hour after the Russians declare a war against them), and decided to make trains that would run on the Russian tracks, which are wider than standard European tracks?

Finland is already ready for Putin, Russian tracks are already here! Come Vladimir, that would be a good thing to this atheist-homo-eskimo land.

Re: 10 Reasons why GOD HATES FRANCE!

Don't you just love it when the French try to do technology?

They have spent $20.5 BILLION on 2,000 new trains that are too wide to fit the platforms.

Merde alors!
