Actually referring to waffles is a poor attempt to insult a Belgian. It's not a typical food or export product. It's as relevant as calling an American a chicken, because of Kentuchy Fried Chicken. I have no clue whatsoever why you link Belgium to waffles. :D
I'm reminded of the Dutch joke, "Q: What’s the latest invention of Belgium? A: An airport with a roof on top."

But more than anything, I'm reminded of the old Monty Python sketch:

http://www.ibras.dk/montypython/episode37.htm
Well now, the result of last week's competition when we asked you to find a derogatory term for the Belgians. Well, the response was enormous and we took quite a long time sorting out the winners. There were some very clever entries.

Mrs Hatred of Leicester Said 'let's not call them anything, let's just ignore them' ... (applause starts vigorously, but he holds his hands up for silence) ... and a Mr St John of Huntingdon said he couldn't think of anything more derogatory than Belgians. (cheers and applause; a girl in showgirl costume comes on and holds up placards through next bit)

But in the end we settled on three choices:
number three ... the Sprouts (placard 'The Sprouts'), sent in by Mrs Vicious of Hastings... very nice ;
number two..... the Phlegms (placard) ... from Mrs Childmolester of Worthing;
but the winner was undoubtedly from Mrs No-Supper-For-You from Norwood in Lancashire... Miserable Fat Belgian Bastards. (placard; roar of applause) Very good - thank you, Carol. (Carol exits)

I never got it either. Chocolate and quality beer. Those are typical Belgian products.

That was a very good Monty Python sketch BTW :D.

Hes one of those people who will use words he doesnt know the meaning of. He calls you hector, yet burke was referring to trigger, if i am not mistaken. :disagree:
Like I said, he saw someone use the term 'generalisation' and ever since he keeps using it himself. If he actually knew what it meant he'd realise that it applies to him more than to anyone else here.

7.9 earthquake struck Peru a little while ago, it doesn't look good. There is a Tsunami warning out for various places, as there probably should be. A 7.9 on the scale is something a catagory 4 hurricane would produce over land.

There have been three major quakes in a week on this planet.. that sort of infortmation makes one wonder.

hey scale-boy, mind your fucking business
You know.. rumour has it you're not big at all. I've been told you're tiny in fact. A tiny police officer who does nothing but sit at his desk all day and put people through. Kind of a police secretary, I guess.

They say you don't exercise one bit. That you'd be scared to take a shower alongside all those muscular men in the gym...

Maybe it's just a rumour, but then again maybe it's not.

No, he's on the streets.

I know this for a fact because he called me from his Squad Car.

So EAT SOME WAFFLES!

Actually I changed my mind.

Call Claudio Pizarro and tell him that it happened because he went to Chelsea and Jesus got mad because Jesus hates the EPL.

Then tell him he's a fag, and tell him to play for FC Caracas.

So who told you he was in a squad car? I bet he did. Perhaps he even imitated some street noice to make you buy the whole thing. If you ask me, he was simply sitting at his desk with a police alarm when he called you:

"I don't have much time to talk to you, Bürke. Something really cereal is going on here. We might finally arrest Tony Soprano. I'm going in right now. For the love of God, cover me, guys! COVER ME! This is it, this is it. I'm totally cereal."

After which he emphatically smacked down the phone and left you wondering what the hell was going on and who this Tony Soprano guy might be.

I believe the term is:

"Super cereal," Mr. Gore....didn't picture you as a South Park fan.

And for Grandfather Gobert's sake, stop being a righteous-clown-asshole.
