#1 Wait a sec - weren't we doing this exact same story about 4-5 months ago?

I recall we had a "special" poster on the thread, too. He just livened everything right up! Howard, can you recall exactly what was posted (and I think I was the culprit) that set him off?

We had such a good time, I wanna see if we can lure him back! ;->

#2 .com - I believe we were. I recollect we had various suggestions - one being that the offending ad should be replaced by adverts for Danish bacon or that fine publication, 'Asian Babes'

Check this one too.. you guys have the right idea!

Beers or executions at half-time?

#4 Lol! Reminds me of a Pub in Bangkok called Jools on Soi 4 just off Sukhumvit past the Dynasty Inn. They have a sign telling their Islamic patrons something along these lines:

We Don't Appreciate Drunks or People Who Abuse And Fondle The Waitresses So No Arabs Will Be Served Alcohol Because We Respect Your Religion Even If You Don't.

Always wished I had taken a picture of it.

#6 .com - We Respect Your Religion Even If You Don't ROFLMFAO!! I just tore someting again..

Bulldog's lines from another post sit nicely here:

hate-filled retard-o-punks, and shuffling, mumbling little freaks-under-sheets

That's what you want, that's what you gets... where are the sensible muslims in the UK? They DO exist!!

#8 Howard - The sensible Muslims just get on with life without making a fuss about advertising posters. It doesn't take a whole lotta idiots to make a news story...

#12 I say we start putting up nude models with the underwear floating beside them.

Back during the campaign in Afghanistan, I came up with a very simple plan for destabilizing al-Q and the Taliban: carpet-bomb the country with Victoria's Secret catalogs and watch the fun. Don't know why Rumsfeld never returned my E-mails . . .
