The views of some users which are considered normal by most will be
considered "beyond the pale" by some. Whether views are considered
"beyond the pale" largely depends upon the experiences of the person
and the culture they live in.

This discussion is null anyway since the user doesn't seem to be using
the userbox in seriousness. It seems to be some kind of in-your-face
humour.
