What is it with Americans... you just can't get sarcasm or irony. I love those threads like Armada are making race skis... mainly cos of all the plums that cant work out this high form of humour. If it isn't american pie humour, americans just fall on their arse... mind you, you must have a slight sense of humour look at whose in charge of the country.

please dont judge american humor by a bunch of 15 year old kids who think they know everything about skiing and idolize weed, beer, smut, rasta colors, guns, ass hole attitudes, size 48 pants, big trucks, etc...

There must be something in the air because there is already a nice rant about the US in the media section/big mountain; the picture with the Flag...
Go on, i'm really curious to see how this post turns out.

I'm not anti-US.... you've got the best country in the world... but just with a really poorly developed sense of humour.. and a penchant for burgers and killing

He actually had a point: the only sarcastic show i've seen on TV so far, for instance, is Seinfeld. Only one out of a zillion...
Sarcasm & irony are just not that common in the States, why do you guys get offended by his comment?
Dupe, on ther other hand, you're directly asking for trouble, formulating your posts like this...
Now this is ski website, i believe, so let's keep it this way.

What is it with Europeans who think that our whole country supports Bush? The fucking idiot lost the popular vote if I remember correctly. So while you're busy stereotyping Americans as a bunch of McDonald's eating, American Pie loving, war supporters, just remember that it's not always the case. American Pie sucked anyway. The only reason you think that it's our favorite movie is because was so popular in Europe.

^ exactly. Fast food is just wrong. american pie isn't that good, and Bush is an idiot.

and sarcasm is cool.

nothing in this post is sarcastic

if you can read* read America's Secret War, then you might change your opinion a little bit and you wouldn't act like such a arrogant fuck. My country kicks ass, and so does the president, thats why he is there, 180 MILLION other people think so too/

never a truer word spoken..
and indeed this has nothing to do with ski-ing which I'll happily agree, america rules the world or is that sarcastic..
I love the suggestion that I'm french, after all their sense of humour is slightly less developed than the americans and the germans..

a better example of sarcasm would be your mother saying "i love you" to you as a child.
