Yeah, I figured it was either that or Serbia or Romania, the terrain seemed a little too green for central asia. I cant wait to read about the fallout, he's been sued so many times for his skits, even though most people sign releases.

I was a little disappointed that the film was more gags than interviews or social commentary, but I understand why they chose that path for a feature film.

I think Pamela was in on it, but not necessarily the security guards.

I wonder how Chi Psi fraternity will handle this, sucks to get that kind of publicity.

I watched it Saturday night and it was below my expatiations. He did too much fun of Kazak people and their country. You could make fun of people but not their countries.
I think most of the movie were set up not even real things…

You can make fun of people but not their country? That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. You're Turkish? Maybe you should get your country to recognize the close to 3 million Assyrians, Armenians and Greeks they slaughtered from 1914-1918 before you start crying about a movie. Ok thanks.

Yeah I am Turkish? so who are you? Read some book bro... There is no such a thing slaughtered 3 million people or such... Get some education then talk. I think it hurt so much that I am Turkish that's why I can see the flames out of your eyes... You are armenian or something ? tell me the truth what is this anger come from ?

btw: is it equal for you to make fun of one person or make fun of a nation ?

If you make fun of person for their culture it's being racist, just like making fun of their country so what's the difference? Yes I am 1/2 Armenian 1/2 Assyrian why don't you read up on it bro? Why do you think Turkey is having such trouble joining the EU?

Something tells me that debate isn't going to get worked out on AF.

Look at it this way, be glad you aren't Indian -

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Nearly two-thirds of young Indian men expect the woman they marry to be a virgin, but nearly half have had sex with prostitutes, according to a poll.

The survey of more than 2,500 men aged between 16 and 25 conducted by India Today magazine across 11 cities found that 49 percent claimed to have had sex with a sex worker while 37 percent said they had had a homosexual experience.

But 63 percent of young men in conservative India said they expected the women they married to be a virgin.

The average age of their first sexual encounter appears to be falling -- to 18 years from 23 in a similar survey two years ago, but condom use is on the rise, the report said. More than half of the men surveyed said they always used a condom.

Fourteen percent of those surveyed said they had had sex with a member of their own family.

Now wtf is up with that?

I don't know how to make a hillbilly joke about Indians, but someone needs to come up with one.

This subject will not go anywhere.. We can fight here until admin locks up the topic. I cannot school you about this subject. You can bring 10 sources here, I can bring 1000 sources here.

To join EU is a different story not even related armanian or any other thing... It is political. You should be smart enough to understand that.
