FYI...
I did NOT say...
"I'm afraid those Mafias will gun down the referee"
(I merely made the reference from someone else's)
Now... as for ... "Strictly speaking"... (About your reference to Mafiosi)...
I am perfectly aware how to form the plural form in Italian... i.e Mafioso = singular, Mafiosi = plural.
However...
1. you should address your correction to whoever said it (not to me since I was merely quoting from who said it, and as a quotation, I have the right to quote it "verbatim")
2. You cannot, as Mr. "I can read your mind Anthonioni" claims, interpret what other may have wanted to express, since... I would interpret such expression in the English language, in which case, I understand that "Mafias" would be correct, as the plural in the English language is indeed correct.
This opens an interesting scenario, since such expression led to yet another outburst from the Cuasimodo of this thread to false claims of "attacks" against the Italians, claiming that he was putting down the entire nation of Italians as part of the mafia.
Instead, as I think the person who expressed it said so subsequently, he used the term "Mafias" in a way that could be applied to the Russian, or whatever other "mafia" could exists.
So, don’t bring it to my attention, since I understand it as it was meant, bring it up to whoever said it in the first place.
...
Now... as for....
We don't shoot refs, we *buy* them. LOL!
Well... I guess that if I were to take that as such, then it really confirms that in general, Italians themselves, do accept (by your expression), that are a bunch of crooked people who are willing and proudly present themselves in a fashion to bribe and bend the rules... This of course leads me to believe that this entire charade of Italians making total jackasses of themselves as a result of the defeat from Korea truly holds water... So be it! Your choice, not mine.
To tell you the truth, I have always admired many things from Italy until this event of the world cup, I would have expected this from of response from a South American or African country, (i.e a third world country, but never from Italy)... yet I was wrong, the more they open their mouths the worse it gets... On the contrary, I must say that with few exceptions, the Latin American and African teams and even the French team, have behaved very reasonably compared to the Italians who are in my eyes, a bunch of SORE LOSERS.
Pretending to hide such reactions under the even stupider veil of "passion for the sport" or worse, "patriotism" is an insult to everyone's intelligence, so take it from there and do what you will with it, as I said earlier, I DO NOT CARE.
So... frankly, I do not care one bit, I simply report to you what I see. I do not give a rat's arse how they behave, that's their choice, but they cannot stop me from expressing my opinion and such is, after witnessing all the displays of utter idiocy... wheu... what a nation of morons!
Quite verbose is it not? Well, frankly, I am tired of Italian bullsh*t, and I can give you a full load of it, so lay off of me you Italian moron, go fight FIFA or something else, I could not care less. I already know how stupid you people are by the full display of same to the entire world. The confirmation of same by your statements is not needed or welcomed, so piss off go elsewhere with it.
Lastly... I know where Sicily is and what part it played in the history of the mafia, then again, I believe the people who really brought it to prominence where a bunch of criminal gangster from the major cities in the US, as a result of another bunch of idiots, namely the puritans that decided to make liquor illegal in the US... whether I am right or wrong in such, once again, I do not care, the point here is that it was not really Sicily where the power of the mafia really came from, it came actually form the dealings in illegal businesses and practices mainly in the USA... so... as far as Sicily is concerned, the damned island could sink in the Mediterranean and I would not miss it for one second.
Don't like my response ? Good, I can be a jackass just like any Italian and just as easy, so in short... don't post to me. |
