I said I was bothered with it and never participated in that other thread. Since that is my problem I would never bothered to pit even sven about it. Some of her stories are unique and interesting, but if every 1 in 3 (rough approximation) posts discuss those two countries it’s a bit much. Again, is she’s like that in real life she"s socially clueless-always trying a way to drop her experiences in avan when not relevant. Here we do have an “ignore” button and since she keeps ramping up her all-knowing tone and experiences, I intend to ignore her until she’s in grad school and nature takes its course. ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > _Where can you see elephants? > Only in Cameroon! > Come to Cameroon > We’ve got elephants!_ > > [Forget Norway!](http://www.weebls-stuff.com/songs/kenya/) That video contains some serious misinformation. Picking on Norway is blatantly unfair - it is not populated by crabs (well, ok, but not just crabs). Norway’s main exports are oil and gas, not “tree”. We occasionally [export camels](http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1917&dat=19721221&id=WXQhAAAAIBAJ&sjid=yYgFAAAAIBAJ&pg=2969,2399343), too. Norway’s biggest zoo currently has [nine lions](http://www.dyreparken.no/dyrene/Pattedyr/Love/), which are, indeed, available for viewing. And I’m pretty sure any actual attempts made by Kenya to urinate on Norway would be considered an act of aggression. I fear our [penguin army](http://media.photobucket.com/image/penguin%20norwegian%20general/painski2/nils-olav-penguin.jpg) would be forced to reciprocate. Anyway, the trajectory suggested in the video is wrong. Oh, and my Chinese cousin thinks the Tibetans are an ungrateful lot. (I bet I’m the only Norwegian doper with a Chinese cousin. There should be some mileage in that, maybe I’ll keep dropping it into posts until someone pits me.) ---

Why are people on here so rude?I bet face to face it would be much different. Lezlers come back and ignore the idiot!When someone is offensive they are in third circle. If people could just stay in their 1st or second then we would all get along. People should be present when they are online. Unless they are drinking and then people will say, well, anything. :eek: Someone called me mentally retarded yesterday and it wasn’t even in the pit. I didn’t take it personally. Hurt people, hurt people… Doesn’t make it right. Luckily I had to go to bible study and got a whole new mind set. ---
