turtlespeed 212 #27 September 19, 2006 QuoteBelieve it or not Mohammed I can understand he is a historical figure even if you are not a Muslim. But just some random family who is taking a picture?????? FYI I am not offended dude, I just see it as a lack of understanding, and wish more people would learn about a culture that is mentioned daily instead of making fun of it. It is also not just this one thread, it is the current climate. Every where I look people are making fun of things that they don’t understand. The target is usually Muslims. I am way to mellow to get angry I rarely do, but I can understand why some Muslims do. Peace It would be just as funny if it were a bunch of tourists wearing hats and turned around so that all you could see were the hats. The point is that it is pretty futile to take a picture of someone to remember a time - but not be able to tell who they are in the picture.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #28 September 19, 2006 QuoteMaybe you would have been happier if it was a bunch of rednecks in full KKK costumes standing in front of the Liberty bell. That would also be quite funny. Although that would require a good photoshoping in of Cleaven Little and Gene Wilder from Blazing Saddles. Maybe I have a warped sense of humor that revolves around laughing at things that are funny. I like good Christian jokes, redneck jokes, Aggie jokes, Texan jokes as well as stupid white-boy jokes, etc. Even though I voted for W. I freak'n LOVE jokes about him. Especially...crap, I can't remember his name. He's a comedian who I've posted about before, he did a GREAT Bush impersionation at a fund raiser in which Bush was there. He also does a really good John Madden. Laughed so hard I about wet myself.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Lindercles 0 #34 September 19, 2006 I don't know if you meant it this way, but I read your "YES" in his John Madden voice. Back on topic: I like to consider myself not ignorant about Islam (my minor was in Cultural Anthropology, concentrating on Middle Eastern Studies). I found the photo hilarious. Admittedly my sense of humor tends to be pretty twisted, but it's certainly not limited to things I'm ignorant about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To the 30...to the 40...If, if, if the player can catch the ball and run to the endzone and there are no penalties on the play, then it would be a touchdown... Ok, sorry, yall can get back to the SC style bickering about the photo that was posted.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

JohnRich 4 #41 September 19, 2006 QuoteThis is just a celebration of ignorance... Just because someone else's sense of humor is different from yours, does not make them "ignorant". And it's a bit presumptuous of you to even say that. I could say more, but I'm being nice to you today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icon134 0 #42 September 19, 2006 wow... this thread really took a turn... I may not be muslim but I do consider myself reasonably aware and empathetic of other cultures. I think understand why the OP found the picture humorous... and it has nothing to do with the people in the picture being muslim... For that matter I can regularly laugh at the 70 foot tall "touchdown" Jesus I can see along I-75 between Dayton and Cincinnati... I always look at it snicker envision God in the sky Shaking his head and saying something like... "They really missed the point..." Off to SC we go... Its off to SC we go Hi Ho the merry go...

Squeak 17 #45 September 20, 2006 QuoteI can see how darius is offended, since it would seem as if some are laughing at the cultural garb of particular religous sect that is getting a lot of bad press of late. I get equally upset when people mock the attire of traditional nuns, calling them things like "penguin pussy" and whatnot (gotta admit that's at least a LITTLE funny!). still, I have to confess that I laughed when I saw the photoshopped-in Pontiff back there! let's just all hug and sing kum-bye-ya, shall we? But you find it amusing to denigrate women who wear paintYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing?

Michele 1 #48 September 20, 2006 QuoteDid you hear about the new Jewish tires? They can stop on a dime and pick it up too. I think that's funny, in a groaning sort of way. I also found the OP photo funny inasmuch as you can't see who people are. I take photos all the time, and one of the things which is important when shooting a person is to be able to see them. I hope it was a digital shot; otherwise, someone wasted some film and money in developing it. Darius, relax. People aren't laughing at the muslim aspect of it...every time someone says something about muslim/islam it's not a personal attack, nor a personal affront to the religion. It's funny, that's all. It's not ignorance, it's not bigotry...it's simply humor (in this shot). Same as the jewish tires joke...I know some folks like that, and that's what makes it funny.
