Dumb American here. I park my truck in the driveway and drive on the parkway. I guess there are now 3
things that can get heated in conversations. Politics, Religion, and Language. LOL

I refuse to become an American, despite being granted citizenship or whatever that was! :)
Not just Americans, all people have those types of frustrating nonsense, like abnormal obsession with farts (ooops again Americans :) ), minding other people's business (my people), refusing to work for a good pay because "the owner is making millions on our back, he can not make those mills without me" (again my people), etc etc, it is a very long list.
And i can do pretty much the same thing with all the languages i can use, it's just i use US English the most, so i started there.
Not that i am fixing anything...
Hererunterfahren = German for "shut down" , translated it means " here under drive " ?!?!?
Ohhh here come the Germans ... and Austrians and Switzerland and maybe a small part of France, i better go hide :)

Now that you read the above and gained a strong desire to type some strong words, hold on:
I consider myself absolutely more American than most Americans
I consider myself absolutely more German than most Germans
I Consider myself absolutely more Czech than most Czech's
I would like to say the same thing for most of Europe's countries, but i am not allowing that to myself due to not being familiar with their language/culture/way of life, etc, as good as i would like to.
And, I am absolutely pissed off at all of them for allowing their countries to become a joke in the global theater of ....
Political enough? :)

 refusing to work for a good pay because "the owner is making millions on our back, he can not make those mills without me"

 

Here is an extended version of something that helps sum that up. watch the first 1min 56sec of it, then it just repeats after that. I can't
find the regular one anymore.

Nah, this was just to prove that this forum is very polite, even in such extreme cases when someone blabbers nonsense, like me here.
Last week we had two members complaining about exactly that, blaming the forum members for replies they got, while questions mostly did not warrant a reply at all, but still they got polite replies and maximum effort in helping them.
I vividly recall a few years back someone calling us here "morons" and still he got polite replies ... and got fired from his job, as he got a job he had no basic knowledge of, then came here hoping we can magically save him.
I can not find that one, but i did find the other one using the same language:
forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-q...tart?start=10#134151
forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-q...r-not-working#140335
-
So to reiterate:
This is the best forum in the world!!! :)
