Whats this Herbs Story? So hes a Newfie? HAHAHAHAH

One thing about people from NewFoundland is that they are the salt of the earth . . . they would give you the shirt off their backs. A fantastic group of people. The woman over there ( on the rock ) are ALL beautiful. You would want to marry them all.
No one would have a problem with a Newf.
The Beef

Too many noobs around here asking lame ass questions. >:(

I love Matt C threads.
People profile groups, and rightfully so. If everyone says the same things about Newfies not being very smart, I'm compelled to believe there is some truth to it (or a lot of it), speaking from a genetic point of view. Much as the "stereotypes" regarding so many other groups are largely based on fact and pretty accurate generalizations. Having said that, anyone who can read my posts and not understand that I am an exception to this rule, are themselves not a very bright person. It would be like saying Thomas Sowell isn't very smart just because he's black, or that Noam Chomsky is a human parasite just because he's Jewish. There are indeed exceptions, even to what may otherwise be historically accurate generalizations.
TA for example who is allegedly Jewish, does indeed meet so many stereotypically (and historically accurate) Jewish characteristics: selling hot air, making fraudulent claims, perpetuating said fraud. But I don't meet any Newfie stereotypes.

I read your posts often, you my friend my friend are "that guy". Need I say more? Maybe some other Getbiggers can Explain that.

I might be, but what particular Newfie stereotypes are you referring to? It is oft joked about that Newfies are not very smart. I know Americans will joke about Canadians not being very smart, and Canadians think of Newfies the same way Americans think of Canadians, lol. I speak for averages of course. :) Newfies may be the butt of a lot of jokes on "the mainland" as Newfies call it, but I don't think a lot of Canadians harbour any serious resentment for Newfies.
In any case, which particular Newfie stereotypes do you think I meet? I am always interested to see how other people interpret my behaviour so I'm curious to know.

No Matt. Busted means you're 'that guy.' It's a pop culture reference to a certain type of person. You can do the GIS legwork on it, but it is analogous to playing poker for a few hours and wondering who the sucker in the game is when it dawns that it is you. ;)
