\_ *.cz? Like they'd miss their cars for a day in the Czech republic.
I'd like to see something like International Fix Your Fucked Up
Third World Country Day coming from a place like that instead.
\_ Do you know your geography? The Czech republic is a modern
European nation. Just because it's considered Eastern Europe
doesn't mean that it's a Third World country.
\_ It's not a third world country. It's just a poor,
decrepit ex-Soviet-bloc nation suffering from 40+ years
of commie mismanagement. Otherwise, quite nice. -John
\_ What's the definition of third world then? I thought
"thrid world" is the PC term to describe poor countries.
\_ "First" or "Old" World = Europe. Don't forget that
Bohemia/western Czechoslovakia/Czech republic has
historically been a political and cultural center.
"New" World = Americas. "Third" World was some
mid-20th-century play on that to describe all
the second-rate backwaters discovered afterwards
with economic problems. -John

the world
apart from getting the order of usage wrong (i.e.
third world -> first world rather than the other
way around) and being ignorantly eurocentric,
you're correct.
\_ then it doesn't sound like he has a problem with geography,
does it? it's more of an economics deficiency he has.
\_ No deficiency. Have you seen it? I think you need to
check on what the word "modern" means. CZ is a third
world country. Just because they're vaguely white doesn't
make it a modern western nation. They're little different
from any South American banana republic. It isn't just
blacks, hispanics and other non-whites that live in the
Third World. Thank you both for trying though.
\_ Have you ever travelled outside the Bay Area? -John
\_ Nobody noticed. Some cities had even worse traffic. Barely
anyone even knew it was happening until they heard on the news
what a flop it was this evening. -John
\_ Cars are here to stay (at least until transporters become
generally available).
\_ Chech know a thing or two about mechanical engineering and cars.
Pop quiz: which Western car compay buy out entire Tatra design team,
why they did it and what they are working on now?
As far as being 'vaguely' white which I take as they don't quite
fit a canonical definition of white, how to do explain
disproporationate representation of Czech chicks among the ranks
of 'supermodels'? -muchandr
\_ Volkswagen, right? They bought Skoda too. -John
\_ Volkswagen is a joke. In fact all european cars are jokes.
The only car manufacturers that matter are American and
Japanese. With Japanese you get quality, with American you
get power. - Proud owner of a 260 HP Lincoln that routinely
smokes the finest that Europe has to offer.
\_ that proves they are 'vaguely'! Per the current fashion trend
\_ When was the last time you bought a Czech car? I don't see
many trambant dealers around.
\_ Moron. Trabants were East German and they're a massive
cult object (like VW bugs.) Tatra were/are a Russian truck
design bureau. And Skoda (Czech) is about as big as
Saturn in the US. -John
\_ Czech supermodels are hot and slutty. |
