Sounds like the four of you had one huge circle-jerk in the Vs. forum, who was the 'Bukaken'?
So I'm not sure who was at the center of the ordeal.

Nope. Sorry. Xmarks was on my side. So obviously this is more of your rejecting the truth and inserting your own bullshit.
He was arguing against us in the thread, yes, he wasn't supporting your scientific argument because your scientific argument was bs, and he knows his science.

Laughable. You said all that as if you were reeling off some impressive knowledge that not everyone could get. You can get statistical data, size and populous anywhere, what the hell does that have to do with culture? Racial diversity? Yes, it's London, of course it's racially diverse. Oh, and I see you named some landmarks that are REALLY under the radar there, not many people know of Buckingham Palace.
Pfft, you make me laugh. You know nothing of London. You're asking me in hopes that I'll ask you for info you can read up on, stuff that really isn't all that relevant to culture.

Settled by rome as Londinium before the anglo-saxon's got it in about the 6th century.
Hahahahahahahahaha.
So you're now citing history, I want proof that you've studied English culture, not a history lesson, that's what I want, but I'm not seeing anything to be honest. I'm seeing stuff you could Google or read, but nothing that suggests you possess a grain of knowledge about British culture.

I'm really not sure what you're asking for and am becoming more irritated by your outright idiocy. I really don't need to prove anything more to you so unless you start being more specific then I'm going to stop bothering with your farttlebarry posts since they've devolved into little more than attacks on me.
You mean unless I start asking you questions you can answer, right? Doesn't work like that. Culture, you know what that is right? How people interact, what people are generally like, what the local customs are, colloquial or otherwise, what generally happens around the city or whatever. Apparantly asking you to tell me what you know of British culture, and specifying a city for you just wasn't enough. You only go as far as stuff that doesn't actually require any cultural interaction or knowledge, and you've been found out.
MY posts have devolved into attacks? I've done nothing but call your bs into question and frustrate you to the point that you cannot stand it. You are the one throwing insults at me.

Yes, now do you want to tell me how that suggests I am confessing that I do not know ANYTHING about American cultures, as opposed to me simply saying "I don't know everything, as I don't live there.", or was this another Creshosk "But you almost said it...in my mind." thing?

Because I'm too busy writing lengthy replies, trying to stop you weaselling out of the pressure I'm putting you under to give me some proof, because I've been the one answering YOUR questions, so now you'll answer mine. Just tell me ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you know about British or even London culture, not statistics that mean nothing in relation to the human culture, the culture itself.

But it'd be the other things that you don't want to get into specifics about. Actually I could pretty much live anywhere, Culture shock doesn't effect me as when I do travel to places that are different from here I fit right in. Had no problem in Japan when I went. Don't imagine it'd be too difficult to fit in London. As I don't think that everyone there is an insufferable fool like you are.
You think you could come to a London pub and fit in with the locals simply because you can tell them the population of Chelsea and where the London Eye is? You are even more naive and ignorant than I once thought. You preach how important it is to learn and yet you make such a ridiculous comment as "I fit in when I go to Japan, London wouldn't be too difficult.". Yes, because fitting in whilst you visit one place definitely means you'll do so in another. Oh, and you might wanna stop suggesting my posts are attacks, you are throwing pseudo-intellectual insults left, right and centre.

Ah, I see, you're whatever the word for "American hater" would be in latin. Ameriphobe I'd guess? Prehaps then your stories of traveling are little more than lies to save face.In fact that's what I'm going to go with. you've never been here. And any claims to the contrary without backing are nothing more than lies.
So now who's the one refusing to accept things because they do not fit in with what he wishes would be the truth? Certainly not me. Oh, yes, I'm an Ameriphobe who visits America and has American friends. That makes sense, very much so.
This, I imagine, is the part where you continually address any mention of my travels as lies so that you don't have to deal with anything pertaining to my having more experience than you. It'd be a smart move if it wasn't so blindingly obvious and cowardly.

I'm going to start a psychic hotline. I didn't even see this reply when I said: "This, I imagine, is the part where you continually address any mention of my travels as lies so that you don't have to deal with anything pertaining to my having more experience than you.", either.

How does that show any negativity towards Americans, as opposed to merely addressing a country that we are discussing? I have American friends, some are even on this site. Now you're seriously just clinging to any small piece of hope or reason to reply that you can possible gather. It's sad.

I never said I wasn't. In fact as before I've claimed to be a mirror. I will fight fire with fire. If you have a problem with my attacks on you then stop yours on me. Get it git?
If you can show me where I've "attacked" you in the same way, deal.

Bullocks. You've repeatedly attacked me.
A) It's "Bollocks".
B) I haven't attacked you, attacking would be spending posts throwing insults at you blatantly, ad hominem, which you have done to me, and are doing now.
Originally posted by Creshosk
Then you didn't like the reasons I gave, and then discarded them to attack America in general with that whole "We live in a bubble " nonesense.
I didn't discard anything, you insisted I did, and I'm not attacking America. You're taking this as if I'm a member of Al Qaida or something, take a chill pill, you seem so agitated.
Originally posted by Creshosk
Duh, you imbecile. Attacks don't have to be direct smeghead. and I'm not so stupid that I don't see yours.
Stealing insults from Red Dwarf? I feel such pity for you right now. I get it, Cresh. You watch British shows, ok? I get it. You like England, I do understand that. You don't have to throw in a piece of British slang or reference every five minutes.
And of course you "see" my "attacks" because you want to see them, whether or not there are actually any is an entirely different matter. Either way, even IF I was indirectly attacking you, you still wouldn't be fighting fire with fire, you'd have to use indirect attacks too. You're just being direct and attacking me cos I'm twisting you in circles.

"People who don't learn our culture live in a bubble. People who do are ignorant." Goes very well with the previous sentiments that American's who travel before studying are annoying.
Seems like you've got nothing but disdain for us ignorant americans. You have no first hand knowledge. Those stories are nothing more than arse-covering lies.
You "bloody well told me"? Cresh...I get it. I really, really get it. You like English stuff. You don't have to overcompensate, I believe you.
Also, I didn't prove your point. You told me I said I didn't want to learn, I said no such thing, and again with the "I'm gonna say they're lies so I don't have to go any further and accept that he's got one up on me.".

Yawn. If you don't want to discuss it, then admit you don't want to, but don't sit there convincing yourself pathetically that I am lying, simply because my experience is more relevant and potent than yours in this debate. It's petty and very, very childish. I've been subconsciously calling you "Cresh", too, funny coincidence isn't it?
Originally posted by Creshosk
And I do, because I have proven my claims of having done as such. You're nothing but a moronic liar trying to look like he knows something, wanker.
The British slang insults got old just now, we get it.
You have proven you know dialects and irrelevant history, and some famous landmarks. That's like me saying "I know about New York, the Statue of Liberty is there.". You haven't proven anything regarding culture.

I'm going to let you keep up that ridiculous tactic. Just so it gets more and more obvious how much of a liar YOU are. All this time you could have been proving how wealthy your knowledge of London and England in general is, but you're not. You're just replying so you feel you haven't lost, but until I see some info that isn't totally irrelevant to this debate, I'm going to just keep asking you.

You have proven you know more English dialects than I know American. That could change if I decided I wanted to be able to name dialects, but I do not. I'm more contented with the fact that I have knowledge on American culture from various places, having visited and having friends there, and the power that this has to overrule your little "Well I can cite populace and make the obvious claim that London is racially diverse.".
Shoo.
