Should have asked for 72 Virgins at the joint next door? :fp:

The only twat bigger than the Dalai Lama there was the ignorant twat trying to make a subtle joke across languages. :roll:

He actually has a pretty good sense of humor. In her wooish days Mrs. Lak went to a seminar in South Africa where he spoke. At one point he swatted a fly. He looked the audience and said "don't worry, he's in a better place".
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

The most staggering thing about that video is the fucking temperatures everywhere. Isn't it meant to be winter?

This is quite brilliant. All naysayers have it wrong.

Yeah, he's really a very humorous guy. He likes to laugh and help others laugh. The Aussie twit is so ignorant of bi-lingual communication, though, that he made himself look stoopider than he tried to make the Dalai Lama look. Anybody who is bilingual or polyglot would know better than to even attempt such. Subtle wordplays like that just don't translate, no matter how good the translator is. Just think, if someone has to explain a joke to you, even one in your native tongue, it's not really funny, is it? You might appreciate it in an intellectual way, but you're not going to get a serious belly-laugh out of it. Interviewer fail.

:lol:

He really should have given up when he had to ask what a pizza shop was - there was no way that joke would translate. Full credit for being able to laugh about it himself though.

Anybody could do this anytime with anybody whose mother tongue isn't English. :yawn:
