Imperialist Bastards ! ! !

Wee ferry threatened by giant US warship

A tiny ferry making its way across the Clyde river got caught up in a NATO naval exercise and ended up being threatened by a large US battleship, it emerged this week.

The 70-year-old boat was starting the 15 minute crossing from Gourock to Kilcreggan when it received a radio message: “Unidentified vessel approaching on my starboard side, please identify yourself. If you fail to do so, we will open fire on you with live ammunition.”

The US ship had just left Faslane Naval base.

A source told the Daily Record: "The skipper got a real fright and radioed him back, saying he was just a wee ferry.

“If you’ve got a big battleship loaded with guns bearing down on you and threatening to shoot, it’s quite scary.”

The message was broadcast on channel 16 - usually reserved for emergencies. Commander Don Chalmers, in charge of the excercise, apologised to the rattled ferry captain

Americans: “Please divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision.”

Canadians: “Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.”

Americans: “This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.”

Canadians: “No, I say again, you divert YOUR course.”

Americans: “THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES’ ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH. THAT’S ONE-FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.”

Canadians: “This is a lighthouse. Your call.”

That’s just unbelievable! Harsh words! Threats! Then an apology! Can you imagine the nerve of those Imperialist Bastards!?

Of course, I often wonder why we Imperialist Bastards should ever apologize to any European for anything. Imperial Bastards like the U.S., well not like the U.S…THE United States has bailed those vaginas out of every serious scrape they’ve ever had.

And they’ll come runnin’ again when someone who really wants to kill their asses starts making noise again.

And we’ll do it all over again. So let me say now:

You’re welcome, asshole.

HA! No one ever accused the Canadians of not having a sense of humor!

Hockey is proof of that! And shit. The word ‘CANADIAN’ and ‘CANADA’. Those are funny too! I always chuckle at 'em. Like I do when I hear words like ‘turd’ or ‘booger’.

Stupid shit like that makes you laugh. Boogers. Turds. Canadians.

Your point? Do you think naval ships of other countries would act any different? Ever hear of the USS Cole?

Details on the NATO exercise being conducted in the area, and more details on the incident from UPI.

The exercise includes forces from Britain, the United States, France, Greece, Italy, Norway, Canada and interestingly enough…Belgium. Imperialist countries all.

I assumed the ferry was the Belgian Navy.

I heard that joke in HS, about 1979. George Carlin used it in his act back then.

I am sure your American ancestors laughed when Canadians burned down the white house and looted the American treasury.
What is funny about hockey? Maybe it is the fact that a hockey player would hospitalize an NFL, MLB or NBA player in a fight.

Oh. Hockey’s funny because they went on strike. Now they all make less, they have a terrible TV contract, and fewer people go to the games. Sounds like sound Canadian business strategy.

Hey! Send some Canadians down to attack the White House now! See how it goes! You guys are a World Power! Give it a go!

No the business aspect of the game is fucked because they overexpanded into places where people don’t care about hockey.

Pound for pound we would kick all your asses.

Pound for pound? What does that mean? You don’t measure up to the U.S. “pound for pound”. You don’t measure up at all. You don’t measure up dollar for dollar, missile for missile, gun for gun, bullet for bullet. What do you want to do, match up every Canadian against an American in a fist-fight? Brilliant!

Let’s see. Why don’t we start with the winner of the CFL championship against the NFL Superbowl Champions! Oh. Most of those guys are Americans anyway becuause you can’t find 11 guys in Canada tough enough to play real football.

Talk about something other than how tough Canadians are. It’s like me trying to tell you the girlscouts could have invaded and defeated the U.S.S.R in it’s heyday.
