Hey, I just noticed your avatar and think it's not very nice to squash Obama like that!

Thanks. You can respond now, your Moderating Highness.


:lmao:


Okay, at the moment, my intellectual faculties are not at their most active. So, I will resort to the most basic of ad hominems, screaming loudly until everyone else is deafened.

Not that I need to do that myself. Ladies and gentlemen, debators, philosophers, and other raving lunatics, I present to you, the Rabbids.

It must seriously be a British thing.

I get Monty Python, the Office, and to some extent Young Ones, but that...I don't get it. :(

I'm Australian. And the Rabbids, in fact, are French! (The game that comes from is done by a French company)

Long day, I forgot.

I noticed a little french flag somewhere in the vid. Eh.


Is posting off-topic considering derailing a thread even when the threadstarter is Rags?

Yeah, but only if it gets completely off topic.

Okay, fun time over, back to the endless debate.

No way!! I went to watch a match involving Russel Crow's Rugby team, and they kept saying the Rabbids were Aussies. Course, I did consume a few beverages that day, and might be mistaken. ;)

They're the Rabbitoes and they have a green and red stripy shirt as a uniform. Getting back to the topic, I find it somewhat disturbing that Raggy would even contemplate such an inane law as no slandering religion. Last time I looked, we had (relative) freedom of speech. I also hardly think Raggy is the ideal poster child for his religion for reasons too numerous to list again.
