Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

Thank You,
Glen Riser Ph.D and part-time Analrapist.
I am both a Analyst and a Therapist. I just moved them together to save time (and because them dirty New Zealanders have trouble pronouncing "Analyst.")
Now if you will excuse me, I have to go to the pub and drink myself stupid and beat the shit out of people for no reason.
............ mang
Seriously, It's not racism. It's poking fun. Brits get steriotyped as being monocle wearing, toff voiced rich people who wear bowler hats and eat veil stuffer with horses. But that's all part of the fun of Destructoid. You'd be better of just embracing your own steriotype and making fun of it yourself than worrying about it and then leaving the site just because of that...
I dunno about racism in America, I really don't know how it works over there. Maybe Mexican racism is rampant, but trust me, this isn't racism. I thought it was hilarious, and the same would have applied if you replaced all the Mexican jokes with Brit ones.
Just laugh along with it, you'll enjoy your life a lot more if you stop worring about innane generalisation that no-one takes seriously anyway.
When will we blog on a dtoid where people can rise above their petty differences, and enjoy a little joke between friends? Perhaps one day, we might even feel comfortable enough with our own ethnicities to make light of amusing stereotypes, under the obvious understanding that none of us truly believe these to be true.
Wait...
It was nice of Microsoft Sam to lend you his woman to do the audio.
LOL
Seriously, I cannot stop laughing. This is the best blog post in a while! You have unintentionally built a lulzfactory with out of context comments (joking is not a hard thing to understand), selective quote mining (you don't want to bitch about all of the other stereotype jokes? Just the ones that affect you? You fucking racist) and sweatshop labor (the best kind of labor.)
LIGHTEN UP!
I'm 100% mexican. Jokes are jokes. In fact I'm stealing the wifi from the nearby office building as I sit here waiting outside the Home Depot as I post this.
LIGHTEN UP
It's a joke, like this one: What's the difference between a Jew and a pizza? A pizza doesn't scream when you put it in the oven!
^and before you say anything, yes, I'm a Jew, and my step-grandmother is a Holocaust survivor, and I volunteer at the Holocaust Memorial Center. A joke is a joke.

I'm a white christian, though, so I basically have very little leverage when it comes to convincing you, seeing as we white people are the source of lots of racism.
That said, I could really go for a Dos Equis or a Corona right now.
