its a little insensitive to assume that all of the above were comfortable going into a bar in the first place.

so long as you have individually consulted prior to making a group decision then its probably ok

And Malayans are from where? Malaysia? They would then be called Malaysians or Malays.

I think that's mildly amusing, obvious and predicatable, but mildly amusing. Not racist.

I am unable to make a decision without guidance from the moral compass that is Elfin.

Rumour has it that he's swinging wildly at the moment...

I see many countries mentioned, but no 'races'.

That would make it possibly xenophobic, wouldn't it?

Interesting fact about (the word) Thailand - it's one of the few words where Irish people go out of their way to pronounce the "Th" 🙂

Last Malayan I saw was at my local Indian sit down (or restaurant serving cuisine of an Indian style). Good effort though, all humour's good if not with evil intent 🙂

There's a bloke from East Timor who's deeply offended he wasn't invited to the bar. He wants compensation.

I think Elfin has been slandered against.

Do you have proof he has been swinging wildly again?

Last I heard it was just a few private parties
