We were on a Mediterranean cruise one year when we noticed there were a lot of Aussies on board. They were lots of fun and we didn’t realize until a few days in that they all wanted to pass Gallipoli for the April 25 commemoration. Met a bunch of middle aged men and women and their families who all had ancestors who were part of that famous and memorable campaign. It was eerie to sail past that area knowing that so many ancient battles were fought there and a modern one with descendents visiting this place.
I don’t drink (which the Aussies laughed about) and I could only toast with a glass of orange juice but I was more than happy to make friends with them and share me story of my grandfathers who fought in the same war but stationed in England and France.
When you make a Nazi salute and you’re an average person making less than $60,000 a year and barely making ends meet … you are a right wing extremist Nazi that is hated by the general public.
When you make a Nazi salute and you control over $400 billion … there is cause for debate and questions about whether or not it was a Nazi salute
Testicles … the weak point of any man, no matter how physically strong they are. Touched, exposed, or maltreated in any way, and any giant man will fold into a fetal position and whimper like a little girl. Violently struck and man will gladly go unconscious or die rather than endure this pain.
Soure: am a man with dangly sensitive bits
Funny you should mention that movie … I just finished watching ‘War Games’ with Matthew Broderick … those films just take me back to the 80s. It was a great time because everything was so simple … but like I said in my previous comment, it was also a rough period because the adults still lived in this world where they weren’t so easy on the kids. You could wander around town and if you did something … anything wrong, chances were high that you could run into an adult that could slap you around and if you told your parents, they’d ask YOU what you did wrong.
Doesn’t mean they had an easy life … I grew up surrounded by all my older relatives who looked like this when they were teenagers in the 80s. The thing was … they all had rough lives and basically childhood (if they had any) lasted about two or three years. Childhood was just never ending terror with rampant alcoholism, abuse at every corner and violent adults making your life miserable. Mix in there that you were expected to work, run errands, stay quiet or get slapped around for even existing. Most of the boys I knew had really rough fathers who beat them for even looking the wrong way … then they hit 12 years of age and almost by necessity, they had to grow up immediately. They had to grow old, tough, strong, fast and rough because they had to stand up to a previous generation that took it out on them. I remember my older cousin turning 13 and standing up to his dad in a fist fight. It was ugly but he stood his ground … neither won but he never got beat again.
Dozens … dozens of lives
Like human politics … you don’t know racoon laws of the jungle.
Nah … I just like people who sign off with a happy face :)
I wasn’t going to comply with your violent demands … but since it has a happy face
But now there’s three of them … and two rotisserie chickens
I guess I should be more considerate of that … I’ll remember that for next time … edit has been made
All powerful, all seeing, all controlling, all creating being can see, do and create whatever and whoever they want, knows the future, the past and the present … but gets upset when I masturbate in secret
No matter what she offers refuse as politely as you can … if she really insists and is upset about it, accept it and maybe just use it to buy a new shovel or something.
I have elderly neighbours myself and I help them when I can or when they ask for it. Just let them know that you are available … but also set boundaries and don’t let them think that you are on call 24 hours a day. My neighbours asked for a help a month or so ago and I wasn’t around to help so I had to tell them I couldn’t. But nines of out of ten, I’m there for them if they ask. But at the same time, if they called me at 2am for an emergency, I’d run out to help them.
Just remember the golden rule about neighbours and being neighbourly … ‘stay close to your neighbours but not too close’ … be nice to them, but don’t involve yourself too much or too far as that will get you into deep trouble that might not be good for either of you.
Exactly … why bother with a complicated justice system when one person can step in to ignore the entire process. The fact that one individual can pardon others means that it is an incomplete and flawed system.
American energy revolution as tens of thousands of megawatts of power are generated by installing a turbine on MLK’s grave as the late American icon spins furiously in his grave.
This was almost like a template by design
It all just means a decade or two of crushing changes and enormous transfers of wealth to an elite few … it will be followed by a giant swing in the opposite direction after. How badly the swing back will be is anyone’s guess … it could be just an optimistic move back to social democratic values that actually tries to represent people … or just general revolt and conflict.
Whatever is going to happen, it’s going to be great if you’re already rich … but completely miserable if you’re not (even if you support these idiots and think that they will actually make anything other than their wealth great again)
Probably liability and insurance.
What do you think would happen if you offered huge drinks, unlimited amounts or large capacity drinks of caffeinated, or energy supplements in a machine. What do you think a bored teenager with a bunch of his friends on a Friday night would do? They’d try to drink five gallons of Monster Energy just to see what would happen.
Someone would suffer a heart attack or some medical emergency and lawyers would have a field day milking concerned parents and restaurants with access to millions in insurance.
