[citation][nom]back_by_demand[/nom]I hate to be the one to say this but it was you who turned a joke into an arguement, just to show off.Football, by the way, was invented in England and the game you play that you call football is not. You use your hands and it is shaped like an egg. It is hand-egg, not football, simply renaming it soccer for your own benefit does not make your game football.How about you invent a game on a black & white board, 10 squares by 10, with 20 pieces per side similar to chess. If you rename the original game in your own country to something else it really, really doesn't mean you can just adopt the name chess for your own game. But then, for a nation founded on the principle of invading the land and killing the native population I would expect nothing less.[/citation]
Wow want kind of swill do they teach school kids these days in Jolly Ole England? My nation was founded because your king wanted to expand his empire! He would have had a great thing going, but he decided to tax the people to death and they revolted. So much for history.
I merely pointed out the incorrect nature of the relative positions of the two planets in question and inserted a rather tongue in cheek response. Then you actually had the gaul to imply that I couldn't pick up on sarcasm when anyone with a brain could infer that you have in fact passed 2nd grade science. As I said, a ONE WORD modification of the joke would have yielded no less humor. I got cheeky when you pulled off the gloves and started throwing profanities and nationalities around, that was you not me.
As long as you are schooling me on the true nature of sports, I have to ask; What's up with cricket? I mean do people really play it?
