Gypsies....annoying as hell?

There's all sorts of shows on TV now about modern-day UK and American gypsies. Gawd, they seem like an awful and annoying bunch!!

I know TV plays up drama but I'm talking about things that can't be edited like their constant in-your-face shouting "I'M A GYPSY" ....(who gives a fuck?), they seem very loud, disrespectful and their traditions seem so stupid. They seem like they impose a lot on other people's right to peace and quiet and have little respect for property besides their own trailer or home. Their dancing looks like upright seizures.

Also since they're always getting turned away from venues and such where they wish to party and other places of business, they HAVE to be awful, no??

I've never dealt with a real-life gypsy but since many users here are from the UK and also from various states, I was hoping to get valid comments to supplement what I see on TV, see what's true, what's not and what the general opinion is on these people from anyone who has direct knowledge.

    I never saw a gipsie until that show, i thought they were those vagabond fortune tellers, turns out they are much worse. From that show I learned they are like hillbilly, but more annoying.

    I hate to discriminate and generalize against the whole ethnic group, but hell, they're annoying...

    I can't for the life of me see why they're on TV and why all their weddings have to be big and fat. Why can't they just have a civil ceremony in Scunthorpe and then a reception down the Nag's Head like everyone else?

    P.S. I know some in real life and they're not as annoying as the ones on TV. But that's true of virtually everyone. I'm sure people from Essex aren't all TOWIE.

    That's like using Jersey Shore to judge everyone in New Jersey. (Yes, there are actually people in NJ that aren't orange or chavvy.) I've come into contact with gypsies and they have just about the same likelihood of being a jerk that everyone else has.

    I fucked a woman gypsy once and she has been on my mind ever since. She was the best fuck I ever had too.

    It's not like when you watch the TV shows about them they show just a couple... no, they show Gypsies from all over the UK and they're all as fucking annoying as each other. I don't know if they're brought up and are encouraged to piss everyone off but their values and beliefs are just backwards. They don't let their daughters marry outside of their little Gypsy society or else they disown them. That's just like saying you won't let your daughter marry a black guy or you'll disown her. I wouldn't be surprised if they practiced incest either - have you SEEN them?

    When I see a gypsy, I throw a Molotov cocktail through the window of his caravan.

    Getting turned away at venues doesn't mean they "HAVE to be awful". Also, judging an entire group of people based on TV shows is incredibly racist.

    Kinda glad I don't have cable, I haven't been exposed to this phenomena. I wouldn't want to judge unless I actually met them, just look at Jersey Shore.

    From what I hear people from South Jersey are ashamed of that shit, but the dumbest ones just so happen to be the loudest.

    I think it is really sad that they claim to be born again Christians as I am and yet they call everyone in the world that weird ge-something lol I forgot. Neways I am almost 40 and I have been married for almost half my life, I have 5 kids and I am really (ok I dont see this so much but it's what everyone says) beautiful both inside and out. I am a nice person. I don't know how a group of people with so may strong true values can just simply judge me because they do. In everything they say...all others who are not like them well the women only are good for sex and they say if we date it's cuz we r having sex befor marriage and so many more mean things. Honestly I have a husband who loves me, I mean he actually loves me.. He wasn't forced to marry me and if they took even 5 min to not be so entirely closed minded they could meet me and many others outside there culture who all they would find is love and strong Godly values. They claim Jesus is Lord and yet they do not have any trust in him. As the bible clearly states no other name is above the name of Jesus yet they do vodoo masked as there gift. You do not need any cleansing rituals when you know Jesus is Lord. I feel they are small minded and very uneducated in the bible as well as in the world. Bobby is the only half saine one in there clan. Sadly his brother Nick I seriously believe has a disability maybe some sort of autism but the gaje doctors could never possibly help even though they save the head dads life. The ONLY reason they can get appartments is because they don't have any legal docs. But they believe I am evil and a whore because I am gaje. Prob I spelled that wrong. It's so sad that they don't know much past New York because in many places they would find kind people. New York is one of the most angry places I've ever seen. I love the place. Shopping and all. But they judge harshly. Don't say you are a Christian when the base line of being a Christian is Love not judgment. Judge not lest ye be judged. By the measure you judge you will b judged. Both r scriptures if they know the bible they will know both. I wish so badly I could meet this family because even with how horribly awful they think of me I would welcome them and all they would find in my house is love not strife. Which they advertise on tv in an abundance. I do believe not all gypsies are like this family. I say all I said just about this one family. If they advertise there lives I am shocked they are so proud to show there hate and say they are Christ Like which is what being a born again Christian means. Plz excuse any spelling errors as I'm on my iPod and it's hard to type this much. Lol thank u.
