I never insulted your guys' city, country, or people. I think you guys should be reciprocating the same way.



First off, it's not that you 'may' come off as an arrogant American...it's that you do come off as an arrogant individual.

Secondly, in you're OP you stated that you, as an American, are superior to every race...

That seems like an insult to me...


The other stuff you wrote is just rubbish; IMO. Everyone's culture is incorporated into other culture's outside their own...so, all your 'you use American products, etc..' doesn't really prove a point.

Your question has NOTHING to do with race, culture, or gender.

Its simple sicology. It is natural human behaviour.


People who feel insecure...usually behave this way. People who feel they want to prove a point will behave this way.

Rather then complaining or opposing the facts of such a situation, a clever person will comprimise...will adjust himself to blend into his surroundings.

Scenario: American guys comes in yelling and blabing his head off....Car cleaner thinks hes bonkers....in the end...car not cleaned.

Scenario2: American guy tries to us hand gestures and somehow successfully makes car cleaner understam. In the end...car is clean.


Therefore the next time u see someone acting smart....yelling....etc. That just means that person is really having a hard time and giving HIMSELF a headache.....

Notice...you never see presidents or very important ppl behaving this way...? Why u might think? because they are in control of the situation and know exactly what they want.

Poor guy who just won the lottery will start behaving in such a manner..because he knows he just got rich quick...and he knows his roots are from a poor standard....yet he has to show....

Americans act supirior because in their home country they are treated equally....theyd probably get a slap for the way they behave here. Unfortunatly...here most people are pieceful and are here only for business...they usually dont have time to involve themselves into domestic problems....so they tend to ignore. Which probably is the best solution for all parties involved.

Yup it is labeled Chevrolet Lumina, but it is Australian car produced by Holden in Australia. It is sold in Australia as Holden Commodore. http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/act ... ehicleid=4

But I think the ones' shipped to ME have Chevrolet engine.

What did I ever say against India????? You all need to stop BSing and start answering my question. I'm glad we're accepting Indians into our country. Some are doctors, some are store owners...they are helping our economy grow one way or the other.

And I"m not black, I'm Caucasian.

The reason people buy Jap cars nowadays is because they take less gass.
American cars are strong, therefore they take more gas.
What would you rather have? A strong vehicle or a light one? I'd much rather prefer a strong one. The extra 10 grand could, in some cases, be spent on saving my life in case of an accident.

American cars are great as long as you don't need to accelerate quickly, drive around corners or expect any of the luxuries European and Japanese cars have.

You read far too many auto mages, american cars are built for farm boys /cowboys american engineering is just U.S. and the Japanese are by far superior to American (but not the best) and also they are about to buy out your ailing auto industry retire all the fat idle basted so call blue collar worker americans :lol:

This is an article i found on a website. It says a lot about america`s future:

70 Million Dumb Americans Got a Mortgage, But They Don't Know What Kind!
When you've got negative equity in your house, you are screwed. When millions of home "owners" have negative equity, the entire country is screwed.
The Economist says 6.9% of mortgage holders have less Than Zero equity. They're paying far more than it costs to rent, plus property taxes and insurance, for a house they can't dump because it will cost them money -- possibly tens of thousands of dollars -- to escape. It's even worse with recent borrowers: 18% of them are in negative equity and one in three new subprime mortgages are now expected to end in default.
With 1.3 million houses in foreclosure right now, default rates doubling by the year, double-digit property value declines in most formerly "hot" markets, millions of vacant houses and an expected 10% average drop in home value this year, America will go into a recession and possibly a Depression that will permanently drop the lower middle class to the ranks of the poor.
Oh, and 34% of mortgage holders don't even have any idea what kind of loan they have, so who knows how many additional millions of homes will be repossessed when these brainless creatures finally notice their mortgage payments have doubled and they can't afford it?
It's horrifying -- that's 25 million homes, or a third of the country's 75 million owner-occupied housing units. How many of these people did a countrywide equity loan or re-fi and have no memory of doing it? We're talking about 70 million Americans who can't remember or never knew what kind of mortgage they've got.

Geography is taught, but only American geography. We could care less about Eurotrash land, Asia or South America.

Exactly! Point proven. your just an arrogant fool whos got his head shoved up his own as*.

By the way if you dont care bout the rest of the world then why on earth are you on this forum. Its DUBAIFORUMS which is in the UAE, in the Middle East miles away from the land of the Dumb.

You see people like you bring shame upon america. There was a point when i fort good of America but since coming across ediots like you ive changed my opinion : :roll:
