No Scarlett, you can post any map showing what my country think about the rest of the world or whatever, For sure I will not mind! I may even enjoy it!

I really enjoy when others do a mimicry of me!

if American's posted a map with what other countries think of the rest of the world, we'd get nailed for being racist...

Diamond...yes, luckily there are only a very few people who MIGHt think this way...but this is what the rest of the world WANTS to think Americans believe...sad but true...

Did this make me laugh...well when I originally saw it ages ago, yes...

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.

You're a diamond that shines.

One of a kind.

A shimmering radiant star

You're a desert flower in the rain

Wonderfully made

To shine like a sun

You're a diamond.

You're the one that I quit the blood for. :)

Yes, I do see that. And I've read enough 'jokes' and downright nastiness about Qataris on QL to see me into my old age but it's best not too take these things so seriously. Or just plain ignore them.

Now, where's my camel...I need to go shopping.

Sorry it took so long to respond on this thread!!

I have been wiping my eyes 'cause I've been laughing so much!!

Whew...ok, I'm composed...

I can only speak for myself. Laughter is good medicine and I'm all for making people feel healthier!

But, for all of those that are laughing now--don't forget your sense of humor, if the tables are turned.

Remember it is ALL in good fun. ;)

Reminds me of a Homer Simpson Caption poster.. where the genius says

oooopppsss, my apology edifis. in my haste to look how americans view asians, i totally forgot that africa is missing..

seriously, americans really are so bad when it comes to geography. they could not even locate russia in the map which is an anomaly given that it is their so-called "enemy" during the cold war.

Alexa, I'm sure it's all in good humour and not meant to cause any offence at all. Good god, if I got mad every time someone poked fun at Qataris I'd never be anything else other than angry!

I'm sure Americans like PM on QL would have a chuckle at these maps too.

Can I just change that, victims of the bombs etc are getting paid the same as IRA members that were killed

By anonymous• 2 Feb 2009 00:07

I have a thing for the Irish, I am part Irish, part Italian, brought up in England, love the Irish but at one time us/those/them/us had a fall out (as in the British)! It happens, it was shyte and not good and still going on!

Started with Spud famine, got worse etc, then Sunday *loody Sunday, got even worse for ages, sorted itself out, now got worse again as the victims off the IRA are getting paid the same compensation as the IRA members that were killed during the cause.

So it goes on and on!

I think Africa is deliberately missing.

Gloopyg, think it is meant to be very tongue-in-cheek.

No doubt some see the world that way sadly but only a small minority hopefully.

I thought they had dumped Africa in the with Middle East. That's how I read it. Which does not mean I am saying they are 'evil doers' just how I read the map.

Is this meant to be funny and a 'dig' at Americans or is this how Americans really see it?

arecel the tv's and cameras mean Japan. And the "more evil-doers actually refer to N-Korea. But when you see that the whole of Africa is actually missing, you shouldn't be too fussy about the accuracy of the locations.

edifis, c'mon man. the two small islands near the main asian continent are the philippines and indonesia. americans will not view filipinos as "evil doers",as we are their ally on the war of terror. as for indonesia, they are not known for tvs and cameras. perhaps orangutans? hehehe.. or maybe you're referring to taiwan? for the rest, spot on! australia= kangaroos? lol...
