Chinese 'jade rabbit' moon buggy lands on the moon and rolls off on the surface.

Thanks for the correction. I didn't bother to look it up.

It wasn't made in China :^D

Side note. I bought some ViceGrips the other day, took a quick look at the hanger, and everything looked in order. Later, on closer inspection, they had "made in China" in minuscule print on the back. I took them back today. I paid 4x as much because I wanted an American made tool, and those fuckers sold out to China. I bought a set of honest Chinese pliers from Harbor Freight for $3. I'll look later, and see if any other companies have American made locking pliers. ViceGrips brand is dead to me...

I don't appreciate racist fucking whoreshit in my threads. Fuck you asshole.

Boomer can't be racist, he's a Bush hating liberal and voted democrat in every election since FDR. There must be some mistake.

 

[Ruptga]

Since when did extremely poor taste constitute racism?

Since the OP got butthurt and reported it. Most of us know Boomer, he's not racist though he does like to have fun in the most irreverent ways possible, but the mods can't ignore stuff like that once the bitching is submitted formally.

I hate to be "that guy" but all the images from the moon are apparently of people taking pictures of a screen at their control center. So all of them look AWFUL. Are there any actual high definition images of the moon? I get the impression that the Chinese either didn't go or tried to cut corners by bringing up worse camera equipment than we had in the 1970s.

We should launch the Elmer Fudd to go after it.

Well, apparently I am not the only one who thought it was over the line, dickhead.
You guys should form your own little private forum and tell each others all the tasteless racist joke you want. I don't know, name it the KKK forum or something. You can be the moderator since you seem to be so well verse on the subject.

 

[Ruptga]

The KKK forum, really? You sure are a presumptuous unimaginative angry old man. I think I'd name it Number1's Lawn instead, how about that? The only catch is you'd have to use this avatar while telling us all to get out.

 

[skimple]

Wow. OP is such a sensitive, caring person to be so concerned about racism. Too bad it only seems to apply when he wants it to.

Yes sir. That's some great humanitarianism right there.

Flaming number 2 on number1's lawn! Nobody's gonna mow that shit.....

Gonna need China to build some mow-bots based upon their jade rabbitt designs. Make sure you buy the extended warranty.

 

[bradly1101]

I doubt any Chinese were laughing at us when we had failures. And we had some bad, deadly ones. American pride and prejudice leave a lot to be desired.

Oh this thread took a turn for the entertaining, I see....

Can we get a decent picture of the moon or not? What's up with the images?

 

[Mai72]

The man landing was a hoax? Maybe...

The OP didn't report anything, I did. I was having a discussion with the mods about the idiots we have here and how they find racism funny. I pointed to that post as an example.

If you want to flame someone, flame me. But at least be educated when you do it.

 

[Ruptga]

Oh, sorry. Given his response in the thread it seemed like a reasonable assumption. You can consider that quoted post as directed at you instead.

And don't forget your avatar:

what is taking the pic of the rover? is there some other device with it? I don't see any arms or anything protruding out to take a selfie....

My point was that a lot of racism happens here and its wrote off as a joke while some is completely off limits. I can't stand any kind of racist ignorance. Unless I am friends with that person, then its no holds barred.
