You started it with that Jap comment, you frickin herb.

IanPooley 01-08-2003 10:42 AM

Hey now hold on for a moment!
It was just a joke and nothin more. I did not want to discriminate against someone! But if you compare someone with adolf hitler you might be a freakin idiot!!

And I didn´t say someone is a "frickin herb" or somethin like this. That would be stoofus.

If my cousin is hitler who´s yours? Saddam Hussein or Osama bin laden? Am I right when I say somethin like this to a member here? No I´m not. And you too. So stop that.

Guys, I don't think Ian's original post was meant to be a racist one. Let's calm down and stop the flaming. :)

I've got no problem with that if you can show me how his comment isn't racist. A stereotype like that is racist. If it was a joke, then it was a racist joke.

Enough already!

Like "Jap" isn't a racist reference either? Both you guys need to be a little more careful with the language.

Enough anyways - chill out, the point was made! :) Getting back to the original intent of the thread. Anybody have any more info on whether we can get that gear display in the pic?

SO ANYWAYS. Ben, do you know if there is such a setting in the diagnostics?

IanPooley 01-09-2003 04:19 AM

I wrote a PM to Boo and hope that he´s got no prob anymore.
If tango still says I´m Ian Hitler then he should do so. If I were an admin I would kick him out - thats what he gets when he´s writin hitler bull**** in other forums.
I´m for sure that tango even doesn´t know who hitler was, what he did and if he is still alive or not.
Saddam tango sound very well but I won´t write anythin more in this thread. He´s just a very very poor guy...

first of all.. i duno why u pm boo.. maybe to apologies or what not but u certainly didnt pm and apologies....and i was the first one to be offended
i commented about hitler just to let u feel the sense of prejudice and racism.
secondly... i know better who hitler is.. and i can care less what u think of me... if i konw wuzup with hitler....and all that BS u are saying....and ONLY if you were the admin, you are nothing but a racist loser! and ur saddam comments def shows ur maturity.
lastly.... learn english before you get on a english speakin forum dude.. and stop making a fool outta urself...

ben.. or any moderator... do me a favour and please close this thread... this flaming is gettin ridiculous...

I agree - we need calm down.

There's a big gulf between Europe and US on what's considered racist or inappropraite. We need to recognize the context before leaping to local standards and hurling flames.

So you're telling me that in Europe, saying that Asians can't see as well cuz they have small eyes isn't racist; but is actually funny? Maybe I read his statement wrong, but what else is it suppose to mean?

oggle 01-09-2003 10:03 AM

Comon guys. Let it die already. He never made any insinuations to eye size. Geez.

you tell them boo2

arthur12345 01-09-2003 08:53 PM

eyes see better
 
i'm asian and i see better when i go "wide eyed". if i squint i don't see as well. so there is some truth to this.

dfc 01-10-2003 08:59 AM

Hahaha, arthur, that's funny. Are you near sighted? All my friends who are near sighted use the same technique to obtain a better vision. :cool:

Anyways, people who always feel they are being discriminated against or stereotyped, because they, themselves lack the self confidence. If you feel strong about yourself, and sure to yourself that what others said won't affect how you live, then there is really not a big issue. On the other hand, whenever someone says a joke (intentionally or not), and you feel offended; then it's not the joker, but you who got a problem.

Enuf said, anyone knows how to make the computer console in the middle of instrument panel (where it displays gear selection, and various other information) into red color (as w/ Audi's)? There should be a electrical work-around to do that; anyone have any insights?

HI,

you mean red like when a door is opened or the fixing brake is in use while you are trying to drive?
I dunno if thats easy to do. But I like the standart color more than red. Audi changed the red lights cause too many people complained about irritations.

C ya

dfc 01-10-2003 10:02 AM

Yeah, that kind of read. I was surprised that it turned bloody red when I drove my car w/ door opened? Personally I thought it's sharp looking.

Did audi change the instrument lighting? For the newer ones? What did they change into, the commone orange? Out of all the instrument lightings I saw, I think the VW Passat's purple light is the hardest to see (although looks refreshing). I like the Lexus, S-class's light, nice and bright, w/ the touch of flourescent.

Uh, yeah. I never though of that. I'm sure you have sooo much experience in that area. Based on where u are from, it must happen to you all the time. :rolleyes:

Try coming into my world, and maybe you'll think differently. Someone who lives in a country where they are the majority can't really relate. Your psychoanalysis states the obvious, but did you ever consider that there are many situations that go beyond tolerance?

box986 01-10-2003 11:39 AM

Should we start a new thread on the original topic!

Marko 01-10-2003 01:44 PM

PC jackasses
 
Boo & Tango:

Table for two, two large glasses of shut the hell up. You two jackasses need to get over this and let it die. Anyone with intelligence can tell that Ian was joking, so stop your politically correct **** and let it go already. Here's a politically incorrect albeit true, statement for you-People with mentality such as yourselves are the reason that people who have suffered legitimate defamation have a hard time proving it.

And I DO speak for everyone here, in case you're wondering.
