Goody Backlash Begins!

[centaur]

centaur is half indian i think, i dont think he meant it as you read it, he more saying they must be daft inviting jade over i reckon

Ha ha ha ha, I just pished myself so much!

Dave you are right, I am half Indian (my Dad) and half english (my Mum), and you are right about what I meant.

Seeing Notorious131's reaction was pretty funny. Being Indian, he should know only too well the inherent loonacy that can exist in India as it exists, I am sure, in any other nation. All that India as a nation has done is jump on the "racism" band wagon, which has conveniently coincided with Gordon Brown's visit, and now they will milk it for all it is worth in order to further their political agendas.

And basically, that is all this furore is about, in reality.

Politics.

Ask Trevor Phillips. He will be able to enlighten all of you as to the absolute effectiveness of using the racism stance to further political issues.

By the way, for the record the Chinese invented Chess, but you are right about the Indians coming with up Zero.

Is it wrong to find it funny, purely because the opitomy (sp?) of all things thick and gobby is about to fall from grace in a spectacular manner?

I think its funny, I hope that doesn't offend anyone!

Oh and what part of her thought saying Shilpa Poppadom wasn't going to creat a fuss?

 

[Hellcat]

Oh and what part of her thought saying Shilpa Poppadom wasn't going to creat a fuss?

None, she used all 67 of her IQ to make the tenuous link between Shilpa being an Indian woman and a poppadom being a part of an Indian cuisine..

Oh Jade.. You do make me laugh so.. Such a humerous connection
















NOT.. Tart!

You forgot the decimal point in the IQ:

.67

I dont think he meant "invented chess" but revolutionised it somehow??? (dont ask me, i hate that game!..,lol)

we're the ones that invented the number ZERO that revolutionised math's and CHESS

 

[centaur]

No that isnt what he said. He distinctly said that Indians invented chess. Unless he is so Indian he doesnt know how to express himself in English, which I seriously doubt!

 

[serin]

how can you *invent* zero

having nothing has been around for ever you can only start to go past 0 when you get stuff :chin:

 

[vtec]

I was gonna say that but thought someone would start calling me a smartass!.,.,lol

 

[centaur]

Zero was invented. By both the Indians and the ancient Mayans around about the 3rd Century AD

see here for a decent description:

if you didnt have zero it would go....1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9....then what and you wouldnt have £10 notes,they would be £9 or £11 pound notes

Perhaps if Jade had been taught some 'core values' at home as well as at school she wouldn't have behaved so horribly in BB...
