JamieMemberI think you’re asking a rhetorical question, here. But I agree with your point. I don’t enjoy seeing the contents of people’s mouths when they’re eating.

JamieMemberI too have heard a lot of straight people using the word ‘gay’ to mean ‘bad’ – and I’ve even heard the word used to insult a person (regardless of their sexual orientation). I think this is extremely insulting and offensive to gay people. If gay people used the word ‘straight’ to mean bad, or used it as an insult, I would feel like gay people hated straight people. I can only assume gay people feel they are being victimised when they hear straight people using the word ‘gay’ in this way. I do apologise on behalf of my fellow straights. I refer to things being ‘gay’ only when they are camp, or literally gay.

JamieMemberVery few people here in the UK hate Americans. Most of us like you, and your culture has a positive influence on us. However, there are some minor annoyances. Firstly, you seem very proud of yourselves. National pride is bad because it implies other countries are inferior. Also, you tend to use the word ‘Americans’ and ‘humans’ interchangably, even though you’re only 1/24th of the human race. For example, the popular phrase ‘God bless America’ is almost like saying ‘God d*** everyone else’. Americans are generally good people, but there does seem to me to be a higher proportion of aggressive, insulting and racist people in America than in any other country. I have encountered some extremely ignorant and offensive people from America of a type that you just don’t get here in the UK. People wouldn’t tolerate it. These are all minor complaints though. On the whole, we don’t have a probelm with Americans. Many hate George Bush, though.
