Obviously we aren’t offended enough for our OP. Therefore, we are lazy and aging rapidly. ---

It all sounds like very generic, stereotypical Euro-bashing of 'Murricans. I’m beginning to think the OP is as completely batshit as the possibly fictional “Kaisu.” ---

> [@silenus](#): > > Therefore, we are lazy and aging rapidly. That’s true enough, but it has nothing to do with how much I am offended. In fact, the older I get the less I am offended. ---

That’s a sad story. But going to my real point, I spent a day in Helsinki and every young woman I saw: selling flowers, hanging clothes, barbecuing some stuff, a looked like a finalist in the Miss Universe pageant. Even the wife thought so. ---

That is true, **the\_diego**. Finnish women are so hot I want to knock up all of them, and if they take the kids back to Finland, so much the better. I’m too old to put up with small children. But as a Michael, I can see they can’t spell for shit. Unless “Mikael” is some half-assed Aussie spelling, which wouldn’t surprise me since they’re all illiterate down under because of their criminal forbears. Then I apologize to the Finns. ETA: 😉 Please don’t take me seriously, ye people of Finland and Australia. I already have the Canadians hating on me. Of course, I reciprocate. ---
