Hate to say this Fyron, but I know you are guilty of the occasional double post!

And maybe even the triple post?

Maybe the "shame" pointing finger is pointing in the wrong direction.

Sometimes you need to double post if the thread has moved down far in the list, and you have a new thought that you want to mention. If you just edit your previous post, it will not bump the thread up to the top, so people may not know that you added something. Of course, this is only necessary if there's a long time gap between the first post and the second post.

Tbontob, the only time I do that is to bump a post that needs bumping, or if a long period of time has passed between the Posts (a few minutes to an hour does not qualify as a long time).

Hey, don't mess with us Belgians!
I personaly find it funny. It just seems that every people likes jokes that make fun of another people but when it makes fun of their own country, they don't find it funny anymore.
[Edit] We have the American - Canadian thing here to with Belgium and the Netherlands. We have the same jokes, when they tell them, the Belgians are the stupid ones and when we tell them, the Dutch arethe stupid. Some of those jokes are also reaaally old and not so funny but somehow, they are kept alive

I was waiting for someone from Europe to weigh in on that. I mean, really:

Why do ducks have webbed feet?
To stamp out fires.
Why do elephants have flat feet?
To stamp out burning ducks.

is a real old one. I'm sure I heard it in kindergarten. I say again, does that just sound funny in French with a German accent or what?

At least this one is cool in a surreal way:

An Alsatian went to a telegram office, took out a blank form and wrote:
“Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof.”
The clerk examined the paper and politely told the dog: “There are only nine words here. You could send another ‘Woof’ for the same price.”
“But,” the dog replied, “that would make no sense at all.”
