Quoted from Morgan_Pym

are you sure that you have your definitions around the right way?

Jockeys are midgets... everything is in proportion, just smaller... they suffer a lot from Napoleon complex

[color=green]i AM sure that i have the definition right to ME, why is it that you always feel the need to correct everyone, Morgan Pym?! Are you the keeper of all knowledge?

Quoted from roshi

Midgets' however, don't seems to be in proportion.  They always have HUGE arses and weird looking heads.

Quoted from roshi

dwarves aren't freaky because they're just like other people, only squashed small.  (Also, LOTR has done a lot to make them socially acceptable.)

These days , midgets are defined as proportional dwarves

That you find such people "funny" due to their looks or not "socially acceptable" seems particularly ignorant and offensive

if you are not corrected, when it something as important as the difference between a dwarf & a midget, your life will be less complete

Just be thankful I'm not into grammar or punctuation

Cheers Dalton for posting exactly what I was thinking.
I went to school with Dwarves, there were several in their family, and I was friends with them. I was saddened when I read the negative comments regarding 'little people' I personally think they are cute in their own way and I was/am very attracted to the actor from 'Threshold', Peter Dinklage.
Also, we have many members on this forum and who is to say that there aren't several members who fit into the dwarf and proportional dwarves catagories? If I were one I would be grossly offended.
In the meantime... I love TAR!

Quoted from Morgan_Pym

it's weird because I feel exactly the opposite... I have no problem with dwarves, yet I hate midgets with a passion.  We should legally be allowed to hunt them for sport ..

I find this equally offensive.  Wth is the matter with people?  

Quoted from Morgan_Pym

How embarrassing was it for that guy to be outrun by her?  

lol yeh that was funny...

Last time I checked, having an opinion was not regarded as being offensive, and free speech is a right given to everyone.

However, I do apologise to ANYONE offended by my comments on midgets/dwarves etc., especially little people.  I never intended to offend anyone.  On the other hand, I'm sure there are hundreds of people all over the world offending me, so I guess they should all apologise.  Or maybe not...   I also don't see why I am being quoted when someone else started all this by saying 'midgets should be hunted for sport'.  At least I didn't say they should be dead.  But seriously, I am sorry.

Personal note to Morgan Pym-  I don't know why you have felt the need to attack me ever since I signed up to this forum.  It's okay, but at least attack the right things.  I got straight A's all through high school for English.  I think I know a thing or two about punctuation and grammar.   Now I suppose you'll go through all previous posts to find where I spelt something wrong or used a comma or a semi-colon in the wrong place.  That's okay, if you have nothing better to do with your time.

Back on topic please.

didn't mean to come off as if I was attacking regarding the difference between the two ... & most of the time I am joking.

Anyway... back to topic

I still cannot believe those full-grown adult men were unable to change a tyre & thought it was acceptable to drive a motor vehicle like they did

The one without the eyebrows scares me... I keep thinking he is ill or something

I was thinking about the show as a former girlfriend really loved the show & thought that we would be really good ... I would just worry about being filmed so much & the editing afterwards.  It would depend on which direction they wanted to make you come across to the audience.  I would imagine there would be unsuitable shots taken of everyone or something slips out at an inappropriate time or maybe an appropriate time & just edited in.

With the cousins complaining about the beauty queens & saying something about beauty being only skin deep, cut to the shot of the beauty queens laughing maniacally

did anyone else fall for this and visit his web site?

No, and he's been asked to stop with the spamming.  Let me know if you find any more, other than the 2 he's already posted.

I wonder if the amazing race is trying to play matchmaker now with charla..?

I wonder if the amazing race is trying to play matchmaker now with charla..?

the person I was watching it with said something along those lines & I was slightly insulted for her, until I saw the reaction on her face. HUBBA HUBBA. I bet she wasn't chilly in Chile that night.  

I'm not gonna touch the Charla thing, only to say she looked rather cute in her little '50's bathing suit.
I am really annoyed at Channel 7.  Would it have killed them to show us the seasons in order?  When the Kentucky team were talking about these guys they must have had an alliance with last season, I had no idea what they were talking about!
