Conversation I had recently: 'Yeah, those foreigners should be kicked out of the country.' 'Ok, I'll be leaving then...' 'What?' 'I'm German. I'm a foreigner.'
My feeling about the 'debate' in the USA right now (Particularly people who insist that it hurts their feelings that other people are calling them out on them hurting other people's feelings. Or...
Whew, that was one intensive evening. Watched 'inglorious basterds' with two friends. And boy. Did I get confronted with how people from different countries look differently at that movie. ...
You seem to consider only the Holocene. The greatest threat to us presently is it ending - which is exactly what the danger of global warming is. You also seem to forget that the main reason why we...
No, we can't. Realities that preclude each other cannot be true at the same time. While there is a lot of variation between the quality of life of people, life is quantifiable better now for the...
*stew jokes. That was my actual response. Arguing with you is pointless, as you seem to think that you are right if you only repeat the same point over and over again. If you are actually...
That's definitely true. It's unlikely that ALL those reports of hate crimes are true - but some probably are, and the fact that similar things happened after brexit makes me believe that this is not...
I beg to differ. Life has been different in different moments of history, in different places, and for different people. If I got the offer to trade places with a random person in time and space, I...
Because a lot can happen in four years, if the house and the senate are of the same party as the president. Which they are, now. Trump has said that he'll do a lot of things that scare them, like...
Dear America: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZc8tBtIDhI (Also, did you know that this is the same guy who got sued by Erdogan for saying that he gets blowjobs from sheep? (among other...

You have to fill it in in triplicate, I take it?
Well, time for the Brits to yell 'I told you so!' For us Germans it might still be a bit premature. But we'll see.
It's a big dick measurement contest. And Clinton is probably still going to win...
For the Americans, on this election day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZc8tBtIDhI
Start wondering why people think that makes you qualified to do all the thing adults do.
Tried out some hair products for the halloween party I'll attend this friday (my first ever - I'm a bit over-excited.). Turns out that spikey hair is harder than expected. Well, if spikes don't work...
So a guy from my universities chemistry departement just got a nobel prize... The 'how long until he gets a building named after him' betting pool has officially started.
It would be great. But sustainability needs policing (to use an evolutionary term, meaning in this case strict rules for emissions, and (financial) incentives to produce cleanly, as non-sustainable...
When you say 'lib dems', what do you mean? Because the choice between the FDP and the greens would be quite a strange one :laughing:
I love eating dinner alone sometimes. Not always, mind, as it being a rare occurence keeps it something special. This evening, I ate a french bread with red pesto, half a baked pumpkin with...
That sounds delicious!
I'm partial to mixed fruit-jenever drinks. And good beer, of course. Glad to hear that you don't have that sadness to drink away anymore! Now, let's have some drinks to celebrate...
The simple solution of course being: 'Not yet'/'Not so far'. Do you feel accomplished at that moment? No. But you might, in the future.
Go get 'em tiger! I don't know what it's like in the US, but I bet that, just like over here, you can't be put out of your appartment for no reason.
People are both simple and complicated. Immediate reactions are usually quite easy to get a hang of. Long-term effects, and deeper feelings are more complicated. The reasons behind the same reaction...
I don't do anything with my eyelashes because I can't be assed to put on mascara. (But then, I don't have a boyfriend. You may be on to something)
Her inconsistent characterization makes it hard to pin her type down. I don't think it's ENTP though - I don't recognize her behaviour as guided by Ti and Fe at all. Ne is very likely somewhere in...
Don't give in to the dark side, young padawan!
You must be going to the wrong weddings, then.
Germans sound camp. Or like they want to bite your head off. Or both.
Because holes in your CV aren't fun. Go look for something else without quitting.
That sucks. Hope you are able to move in somewhere again soon. Where do you get your internet? The library?
Yes!
Nah, looks more like a gun.
I love walls. It means that I don't have to see everyone all the time.
If you try enough times, the examiner gives you one out of pity. That's how I did it anyway.
There is a certain fascination to reading neo-nazi blogs. I simply can't believe that anyone would believe this shit, and the commenters are such idiots... but I always leave feeling like I need to...
I have no clue what is going on here. Who is being passive aggressive? What's wrong with my post? Keep in mind that Limitless2007 thanked the post - they must have been ok with it. In any case:...
Nope. I had an exceptionally uneventful childhood. Bit of sibling trouble of course, part of having siblings, and I was bullied until I switched schools, but only in elementary, and there was one...
Ah, so you were talking about when you talk. Fair enough. I thought that you meant that you are accurate (regardless of whether you display your rightness to the world or not), and not only say stuff...
Nope. That's why I called myself out in the spoiler. And they would be right. My post was a piece of self-indulgence, written more to allow myself to crystallize what I think perfect accuracy means...
Laugh all you want. I'll be here, trying to wrap my head around someone who says they understand everything about everything they talk and think about. Your friend's argument makes no sense, but...
Sounds humble.
Not even in PM? This is a 'tell me your problems' thread, and 'I did something that is illegal and that I at least find immoral and unethical in a place where it isn't illegal' doesn't tell us...
Depends on what it is. Can you be more specific?
Friend: 'Yeah, I think white custard is the best.' Me: 'You racist' Both: *snort* (Note: In Dutch, the word for 'white custard' (blanke vla) uses the same word that is otherwise only used for...
I'm 21 and I get it. Should I go see a doctor or something? :unsure:
Huh. Take care.
