Ignorance and racism even though we have the widest variety of religions and cultures from across the globe. I have muslim, christian and jewish friends, phillipino, indian, spanish and japanese friends. I don't get how people can be so **$#ed up.
Ohh yeah and the good old robin hood theme rob the poor to give to the rich.

I had to dig this thread, someone has sent me an email on how to be Lebanese, I thought it fits best here.
Driving
The driver's seat must be in an uncomfortable and impractical reclined position at all times. No more than one hand shall be on the wheel at any time. The other hand should be on the window frame. Alternatively it may be located on the gear-shift or your girlfriend's leg. Profuse use of horn is encouraged. Religious symbols are to be attached to dashboard at will. Shiny rims and tinted windows,
accompanied by thinly veiled threats to fellow
motorists on your back window are commonplace.
Clothes
Shirts are never to be tucked in. A minimum of three buttons must be undone to reveal chest hair and optional gold medallion. Brand names are to be exposed on every visible area of clothing. Jeans and shiny loafers are required to complete the look, along with a generous helping of Brylcreem.
Technology
Ownership of mobile phones released more than two months ago are a big no-no. Be sure to keep your phone visible at all times. Keep it in your hand and place it on the table during diner or coffee. Fiddle around with the menu at all times, to seem like you are always being pursued by serial text-messagers.
Dining
The point of dining is not to eat. It is to see and be seen. Make no mistake. Talk loudly, be rude to staff. Never, ever, under any circumstances, thank your waiter. Throw evil looks at neighbouring tables, whether you know them or not. Laugh audibly, just so everyone knows you're having more fun than them. Crack out a cheap cigar, even if you're 18, to project a clichéd 80s image of wealth.
Clubbing
You must pull up at the door in a shiny new car. Whether it's yours is inconsequential. Call bouncer 'habibe' a couple of times, and crack lame joke whilst tapping him on shoulder. Demonstrate rudeness to staff (see Dining). Act like you own the place. Order recklessly, and cry later. Throw evil looks at neighbouring tables (see Dining again). Shake fist in the air as substitute for actual dancing. Push that guy who dared look at your girlfriend. Drunk drive to the nearest Zaatar w Zeit, get in a fight with someone over a parking
space. Order food.
Cinema
Again, the purpose of the cinema is not a love of film. It is to
waste two hours of time, and annoy a great deal of people
simultaneously. Have loudly whispered conversations on your phone during parts of the film integral to the plot. Throw popcorn at neighbouring seats. Laugh in all the wrong places. Make inappropriate comments during tense scenes. Applaud good guys who punch a baddie.
Language
Arabic is not the official language of Lebanon, forget what you've been told. You will need to master the bastard language that is frenglishabic. Use at least three languages in every conversation, introducing the ones you master the least only for greetings and partings (hola, ciao, ...)
Manners
What-now?
Politics
Chose one of a plethora of local, petty leaders. Adore them. Place their pictures on your car, balcony and other visible areas that may come under your ownership. Follow them blindly, regardless of how racist, irrational and frightening they are.
Education
University is not a place to learn. It is a vast social club, where one must adorn one's entire wardrobe on a daily basis to attract potential mates. Class attendance is inversely proportional to the amount of sunshine on any particular day. Be just as flashy on campus as you would be in a club. Try to get your degree before failing every course four times.
Spend money you don't have, to buy things you don't need, to impress people you don't like.

england is shit, its full of these gay asians who think they are hard (btw i am indian so i'm not being racist) and you get these people who think they are soo hard and hang around outside suppermarkets. its a shithole, every other european country i have been to is soo much cleaner, england is shit. and they think they are soo good when ever it comes to the world cup.
testify!!!
lol like longshanks said about scotland, but ive chaged it concerning england
"the problem with england, is that their are too many asylum seekers"
ye i know how u feel, im not being racist, but im sick of those asians who think they run this country and u cant even walk down your own street without being assulted or insulted by a asian.
wot i find funny is that they always hang around as a family group, ie a gang og 6 brothers, and never alone, and when they are alone they p*ssy out when it comes to fights, they only fight when they have all their family members backing them.
ye, im half chinese myself and my skool is situated in a heavily dense area of pakistani's which used to be italian run, then they got driven out
and the racism and fighting i had with those asians, like 1 w*anker thought he wud be clever and to randomly smack a football on the side of my head without being provoked, and i called him a smelly paki so he was squaring up to me, i threw the first punch, and all of a sudden about 5 generations of his family were ganged round me, lol then the white students were backing me up, man tht was 1 sweet ass fight
