  • ronaldinho, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11@macguy

    war is tragic and often just warps people's minds to an unbelievable extent.....I'm not surprised really, since many of my older relatives (I'm Chinese) still harbor a certain level of resentment toward the Japs even though we are friendly now, even those who have not been directly involved in the war
  • JimmyRyan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9We've come full circle.
  • noahhoward, on 10/10/2007, -3/+12Wai Yu So Kin
  • skankyBacon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8That was glorious.
  • gegtik, on 10/10/2007, -20/+28ultra lame, buried.
  • skankyBacon, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8And I'm sure plenty of diggers will be there to proclaim how old it is, for the betterment of...no one.
  • skankyBacon, on 10/10/2007, -7/+14It's not racist, nor is it hate speech. Seriously, what is hateful about it? It's just a series of puns.

    I have a book called " Mots D'Heures: Gousses, Rames" which consists of nonsensical French that, when pronounced correctly, sounds like English Mother Goose rhymes. For example: "Pis-terre, pis-terre Pomme qui n'y terre" = "Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater." Is that racist too? Personally I think it is brilliantly witty, and doesn't impugn the French language at all, much like this joke and Chinese.

    People need to chill and realize that objecting to every little thing that might suggest there are differences between races, cultures, and languages only makes the tension that much worse. The sooner we can all laugh together without getting our panties in a bunch, the better off we'll be.
  • poppa, on 10/10/2007, -3/+10You Asian, stop humiliating yourself!
  • coldfusion1970, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Thats superb.

  • Dracker, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7http://www.jelldragon.com/images/specials/chainmail_armor.jpg

    Oh, THAT chain mail.
  • 2point71, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8...
    i never knew digg to be racist. i also like how all the the comments that are supporting, encouraging, or add to this racist post are the ones getting digged up, while the ones who find this insulting are getting buried. i never knew the digg community to go so low...
  • sensoukami, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Actually, it's quite funny. Take a happy pill and pull the carrot out of your ass.

    (I missed it 'back in the day' ... was overseas with no 'net in the 90s).
  • tizz66, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7People get bullied for anything. Jokes like this don't add fuel to the fire, the fire is already burning because some people are bastards. Lighten up for christs sake. Family Guy mocked British people like me. Is that racist? Nope, it was hilarious.
  • TrevorBelmont, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7You're a white male, aren't you? It's easy to not be offended when your culture is designed to favor you. Racism continues to divide people and peoples. It dehumanizes those who are different, making them "the other". It negatively focuses on differences and perpetuates a culture of inequality. Your ignorance is staggering.
  • Lasereth, on 10/10/2007, -5/+10I remember reading this crap when I bought my first PC in 1995 and discovered the Internet. Come on. Don't Digg articles if there's nothing to digg. A drought is better than this crap.
  • skankyBacon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Can I have your stuff?
