I thik these guys are from Texas or something, but the funny thing is how they talk about the abolishment of slavery. âYes, itâs good. For them.â
But I do not think that carrying a Federation flag is primarily a sign of racism. Rather of a mix of primitivism and fallen aristocracy, the losers of of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Fixed, that Borat clip was actually shot in Mississippi.
Ah. Yes it says so I think. So I guess you know whatâs going on there.
Maybe youâre right in general about flying old flags, but the one Iâm talking about is widely considered to be a symbol of racism.
There is literally no one flying that one anywhere who doesnât also happen to hate black people. I know that correlations and causes arenât the same thing or whatever, but when something gets elevated to the level of iconic status, that means itâs taken on a specific meaning. In this case, that meaning is bigotry.
Uum, Southern California not Carolina.
I have never met anyone from Carolina.
And sure they probably found me just as annoying. Its a two way street.
Mr. R. You are the one that talks about making money this way and that and how easy it is, so finances cant be an issue. The only issue I can see is attachment otherwise nothing prevents leaving a harsh environment.
Iâve actually been packing for the last few days. Iâm moving northing at the end of the year.
My preoccupationâŚ
The people I liked in Southern California were mostly Latin or Korean.
I have met all but Asian from Southern California. Its just a cultural difference thing. Heck I wouldnât make them second class just because they annoy me. As I said I am sure I annoyed them. I should mention that it includes a few cousins.
What about people fro the Northwest?
ROTFLMAO, most of my in-laws are from there, we live in the south east, you would have to ask my husband about that⌠he is from the Northwest but, has ties to the southwest⌠BTW, I am Southwestern, Arizona.
I saw a sunset there on the way to LA, breathtaking. We stopped and I had a chicken mc nugget menu and some m&ms in a parking lot in the middle of nowhere under a golden sun, which was the most simplistic Iâve ever felt, and itâs one of the most peaceful memories. I basically like the whole west except downtown San Francisco. I once stayed in a hotel there and for the first time realized there was a whole world of despair that doesnât even try to stay below the surface.
It always rains when you arrive there.
On the one trip I made to Oregon for a sister-in- law wedding., 2am I10 outside of LA was gridlocked. It took, 3 hours to get through a stretch that should have taken half an hour⌠no accidents were the causeâŚ
I never took the freeways in LA, I was paranoid Iâd end up in a 24 hour jam. Then I had to once and I was immediately stuck for hours. I really like their big avenues, theyâre less crowded than Amsterdam traffic axises and with much more potholes and chemical pink vistas.
Sunshine through the rain, another dreary day in Amsterdam. I went into the city for a while to buy a BMX bike, which I reconsidered as soon as I got close to the touristic center. There can not be much drearier and fatiguing things than a city center full of tourists and shopping day-people.
Why donât you buy a real bike, rather than a toy?
I have five.
BMX is an exteme sport that I would like to get into.
You sound like my kid. When he was a kid it amazed me that he never broke any bones on his BMX. We allowed him to keep it in his room, he was that interested in it. A toolbox was always right beside it.
Thatâs the one non-weed or hooker related thing I remember about Amsterdam. All those damn bicycles. I mean theyâre all over the place. Pure madness.
Yes, this is a source of entertainment for us, making tourists aware of the law of the bike jungle. People are only used to loud vehicles that you can hear coming from a distance. If they dont hear much theyll walk on the streets and bicycle paths, until they have had one of these heartattack moments that we try to provide them with.
