The Bickering Isles, British Isles stuff (was: Boring!) Options

[TheKartingWikipedian]

I see those Irish nationalist gits are at it again:
Mo Ainm
Snowded
HighKing
Domer48

They and others, including a disgusting Irish ip, are being bravely rebuffed by those defenders of the empire, LemonMonday (ace user page) and LevenBoy as they fight against the despicable removal of all things British, especially our beloved British Isles, from the pedia.

I wonder how many Irish buggers there really are - 1 or 2 at most. Socking is the order of the day here. Snowded stands on his own but the others are one and the same like as not. Makes you puke doesn't it. How about this one: Eliaspalmer. It reeks of socking!

I see Jimbo takes "no position" on the so-called (total bullshit non-existent) British_Isles_naming_dispute. He should take a position. His pedia is being used to promote POV OR bollocks of the highest order.

WP simply does not have enough vapid nationalist disputes. This needs to be rectified. Suggestions:
-Texas and Hawaii: sovereign nations illegally annexed into the U.S.? Are they still nations that are also states?!
-U.S. Guano Islands: sovereign territory or anti-avian imperialism?
-Alsatian Liberation Front: Various pro-French/German groups can just fight on all aspects of this.
-Jerusalem: Still technically the capital and property of the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem?
- El-Aaiún: In Morocco, Western Sahara or the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic?
- Jefferson Davis: The real US president during the Civil War?

Not to say there aren't nationalist flavored disputes with real merit, just that these need to be ignored in favor of more ludicrous issues.

I'm guessing you've not been to Texas lately? "Y'all know Texas is only in the USA voluntarily?" is right up there with "Y'all Yankees talk funny" and "That Brokeback Mountain were all lies". (48% of Republicans supporting secession as of 2010.)

I'm from Texas. I keep telling the neo-traitors that the Civil War is over.

You have omitted the crucial Spratly Islands (T-H-L-K-D) dispute! You dishonor my homeland! Die! Die! Die!

Oh, wait. Nobody cares about them either. Just kidding.

He was falsely accused of socking by another sock (HighKing).

I wonder about this relationship - HighKing, Iridescent and Bjmullan.

Do go on…

I think you mean "The War of Northern Aggression"

I invite you to go on. I guess we can - possibly - dismiss Bjmullan, though stranger things have happened and he does follow HK around a bit - but yes, what are your thoughts on the other possibility?

That I find it hard to think of two people on Wikipedia who have less in common, and can't see what on earth your line of thinking is, since one is Irish and writes about Irish history and cheese, and the other is American living in England and writes about 19th century civil engineering and the early history of eating disorders?

Bah! Another pawn for the Merman Liberation Front looking to deny Brunei's rightful claim to Spratly's precious reefs!

But surely they both sparkle in their own way!

Never heard of him before now. No idea at all where this idea has come from—I don't think I've ever once expressed an opinion on the British Isles, nor ever had anything to do with Ireland.

But Ireland is part of the British Isles, or are you saying it aint ya Fenian scum?

I believe the technical term is "could not give two fucks". Nor, I imagine, could anyone else outside Ireland.

Ah, such little imagination will no doubt serve you well on Arbcom.

British Isles/Ireland.

Do you know how happy I am to say I will gladly recuse on anything in that area should it reach ArbCom?
