It is easier for you to dismiss my frankness as immaturity. Besides, I thought my forward words were rather deserving in this case. You commented on something(quite aggressively) you knew nothing about and all your posts following have been a pathetic attempt to maintain dignity. |

Mature-informed adults argue with facts. You use "abysmal", "fool", "idiot", and "pathetic".
LOL!

It is laughable that you of all people talk about the "facts" and being "informed". If you are so mature, that why do you continue "arguing" with me in this childish way? It is as if I hurt your feelings...

It is obvious to all but you. You are the most amusing little ankle biter I have ever seen.
I say that with a deep sense of affection.

But you have never seen me...
I thought it was only the 'childish' people like me who have the privilege of arguing out of sheer amusement. Are you not too mature for this? Or did my brilliant logic incapacitate that part of the brain?

Meanwhile, the thread is destroyed by two members locked in a petty squabble.
Thanks, guys...

Your anti-French attitude has been displayed in a number threads, most recently, the Mandarin or French thread, where you went on a long irrational uninformed rant blasting French and praising Mandarin. In this thread, it was a little more subtle, but I fail to see how anyone could consider this "forward thinking". Madagascar is not and never will be an Anglophone country. Whenever governments make decisions like this with $ in the back of their minds, it is rather worrisome. The equivalent for you, as an American, would be for the U.S to make Spanish co-de facto official language with English. You would probably consider that an assault on your culture, wouldn't you?
