  1. I just bought several games from the Steam 2K sale, these included Borderlands 1&2 Bioshock 2 Remastered Bioshock Infinite Mafia 1 Excellent special pricing, at least 65-70 % off each game
  2. I am starting to criticize and even reject some of the new Democrat policies, I was concerned this would happen as Trumps perceived sexism and contempt for gender equality inadvertently has spawned a legion of very erudite, committed, pugnacious and very far left Democrat women politicians who now dominate the House and they are systematically going to challenge and block Trump where they can....life is going to get hard for Trump and his ability to implement certain policies But I am worried by the extreme views these ladies have ...lets watch this spot
  3. http://www.rosemaryhill.co.za/high-tea/ Sup Gastronomes Okay so tomorrow I am doing something different, Im taking a lady friend for a high-tea. I haven't been for a high-tea in about 2 years and I found this awesome place that really offers a scrumptious variety of cakes and sweets....check the photos in the gallery section to be amazed and hungry And it is really very well priced, it would only cost $21 in USA terms
  4. I have been heavily playing Fallout 4. This type of Sandbox RPG is always a favorite of mine and I love the numerous options and quests that are available like crafting It should be mandatory for ANY player of any Bethesda game to have to Mod his game as Mods can truly enhance the superlative RPG experience of the standard game. Nexus forums has released there own Mod manager tool called Vortex and this allows people to ostensibly manage and enable any required Mods I am currently using 194 Mods through Vortex and it has really improved many aspects of the overall RPG journey and interaction with gaming structures
  5. http://pretoria.lapentola.co.za/index.php/main-menu/ https://www.brasseriedeparis.co.za/ Sup guys, so here are another 2 restaurants Im going to this weekend. The reason Im posting these restaurants is Im moving in 3 weeks to Cape Town and these restaurants are favorite places I have been to in Pretoria. So I am going with my Pretoria friends to these places as a farewell.....or multiple farewells as its the same friends For those again interested in game and exotic food check out the first restaurant menu, its one of my favorite places in the whole South Africa Im going to miss Pretoria and JHB but Cape Town has some of the best restaurants in Africa and has world recognized wine estates so I shouldn't complain about my future home
  6. Nothing wrong with simple comfort food....I eat similar food all the time
  7. http://pretoria.lapentola.co.za/index.php/main-menu/ I went to this amazing restaurant tonight, take a look at the menu for those of you gastronomes who appreciate fine dining but still very familiar and utterly delicious You should notice some unusual South African wildlife on the menu
  8. Society? I thought we were talking about politics? Sorry to differ with you guys but he is done. The only thing that saves him is a SCOTUS fight if RBG steps down or another Hillary Clinton-esque candidacy. Had his opponent been literally any other democrat (with the exceptions of Warren, Sanders, Pelosi, or Schumer) he would not have won in '16. He was less loved than she was hated. As far as where is supports would go? Home. They stay home. I vote in every election but if there is no LP candidate for President I would skip that one. Or write my own name or Mickey Mouse's in. Put the black mouse in the White House in '20! I would argue Trumps political demise started when the Republicans lost the House, I noticed a real change in his bravado and confidence. It was diminished but nuanced
  9. https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/ann-coulter-on-trump-during-bill-maher-interview-he-promised-something-for-18-months-and-he-lied-about-it Anne Coulter is very angry with Trump for his acquiescence around ending the government shutdown, well done Trump. Implementing the shutdown and expecting Democrats to pay $5 billion was misplaced and an epic waste of time
  10. Correct, white people make up 70 % of the total population so statistically " more white people would commit most right wing murders " wouldn't they ?
  11. https://edition.cnn.com/2019/01/25/politics/roger-stone-arrested/index.html https://www.wsj.com/articles/informal-trump-adviser-roger-stone-arrested-in-florida-11548415987?mod=breakingnews Roger Stone has been arrested by the FBI, this will give us more information around the Wikileaks and Trump campaign links as Stone was a middle man for that relationship
  12. My sister bought me a ceramic Cheese baker pot for Xmas and Im using it to experiment with different cheeses and ingredients..its going to be a great time for finding complimentary cheese flavors https://www.yuppiechef.com/creative-tops.htm?id=39711&name=Creative-Tops-Gourmet-Cheese-Cheese-Baker&vid=90297&gclid=Cj0KCQiAvKzhBRC1ARIsANEXdgy9s7j7mj_JDdrcgHvxn80_b1i9JfiSgdtsWigtDgDVteWy04zBdKwaAoCaEALw_wcB
  13. I enjoy your posts most of the time, I cant recall any specific or serious issue I have had with your comments My money is on Bruce using alts over a VPN, Nah, with all due respects I wouldn't waste my time creating Alts and using VPN's on these forums. I honestly feel the forum rules are more than fair where anyone can make any reasonable or ostensibly controversial comment without having to hide who they really are in there profile information So there shouldn't be any need for Alts
  14. How many people will be attending your celebrations today, I know you always have large parties ? We have 12 people at our cottage and cousins who have the next door cottage have about 14, we cant have joint Xmas celebrations because of limited space but its all good because we always have drinks and shared games after the official lunch..like darts and drinking games for those keen
  15. Sup All Merry Xmas, yes its late but better late than never and its imperative we have a dedicated Xmas thread in this time of cheer and good food So what is everyone doing for tomorrow, I am at our family beach cottage with our cousins and most of my direct family. Tomorrow we will be having a huge lunch with Turkey, Lamb and Gammon. What are everyone's plans for tomorrow and what you planning on eating...I love stories about good food and I am always interested in different ways we celebrate Xmas based on our cultures so dont spare any details
  16. volo I meant to ask you this after our chat about how much France has done for Canada But I dont understand what is your issues with France especially since you are a descendant I assume of the original French who came to Canada. Please go into as much detail as possible if you have several reasons just so I am clear on what you mean Guys I absolutely support Trump in his endeavors to pardon this Green Beret, you cannot incarcerate someone who was doing his job but in an unorthodox way. People who serve there country through any form of military service cannot be treated this way which is very critical and unfair https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mathew-golsteyn-case-president-trump-vows-to-review-case-against-army-hero-charged-with-murder/
  17. This guy is the biggest hypocrite you will ever meet, he thinks being "anti-white " will give him agency and identity...he has just become a vacuous and racist degenerate He is considered very divisive and very few people want anything to do with him, the worst thing about him is he wasnt even "anti-white " about 5 years and was part of this group that always have a lot to say about white people but actually want attention or empathy from white people yet never explain what they really want Its complicated to explain but read this http://slipnet.co.za/view/event/from-a-place-of-blackness-wake-up-or-get-out/
  18. https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2018/dec/10/un-states-agree-historic-global-deal-to-manage-refugee-crisis Guys I honestly emotionally and logically vacillate around these types of well meaning but economically and socially flawed initiatives I would like to support the countries who signed up but I dont as my own country has been heavily targeted by millions of illegal refugees from countries whose leaders and governments have utterly or seriously destroyed any meaningful economic transformation. Some of the illegal immigrants come from failed governments or war zones so they have no real future in there own countries ....but why should millions of these people become South Africa's problem ? We can barely deliver services to our own citizens and we have massive debt due to public sector and the previous presidents corruption and now we get lectured by the failed African Union about " not being Xenophobic " but the AU has never bothered to address the group of failed countries to stop there citizens immigrating to places like the EU or south to South Africa ...SA is almost overrun, read the link below and you will see how we have illegal refugees occupying buildings that should be allocated to local people but somehow we cant seem to effectively evict these refugees.....its very frustrating https://www.sapeople.com/2016/12/13/mayor-meets-home-affairs-joburgs-hijacked-buildings-illegal-immigrants/ https://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/gauteng/undocumented-immigrants-nabbed-inside-hijacked-joburg-buildings-12046715
  19. https://www.apnews.com/4997bb7aa36c45449b488e19ac83e86d Guys for those of you who understand science is this story possible? If this is potentially valid why would it be considered immoral?
  20. There is no such thing, I am very disappointed with the small groups of white farmers who are perpetuating this completely spurious form of propaganda Yes there are unacceptable killings of farmers but there are murders that impact all South Africans, I promise you myself and most white people I know would be the first to immigrate if there was a deliberate attempt to annihilate the white race in South Africa Our new president who is really trying to fix the economic and political damage done by the previous president, Jacob Zuma, has addressed this. In summary "there are killings of white farmers but its not state sponsored or deliberate, its criminal activity that all South Africans have to contend with " https://www.news24.com/Analysis/ramaphosas-killings-of-white-farmers-comment-what-the-president-meant-20180927 And then Trump got involved which just made things more complicated and divisive https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2018/08/23/dangerous-myth-white-genocide-south-africa
  21. These students represent a very irritating and misplaced small group that were part of the " Fees must Fall " movement that really disrupted life in Universities from 2015-2016, they dont represent most students and the entire movement was an epic fail that just added to our tax and egregious government debt. Of course some them have the audacity to think they made a real social stand against " evil ,colonial, Western, anti-poor, Capitalist , Neo-colonial ....etc. " Universities and the actual subjects taught at Universities. Most of them were utterly entitled, vacuous and attention seeking ...and yes these types of discussions were just embarrassing We would never have been able to behave like that in University, we would have been expelled almost immediately for behaving even slightly like some of these students behaved https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FeesMustFall Honestly they has as much real relevancy as Occupy Wall Street , in other words " down with the banks " but provided no meaningful alternative Most of the hardcore leaders were jailed for numerous crimes https://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/feesmustfall-activists-still-on-trial-20180217 They dont represent the intellectual capacity of South Africa or how most people behave who graduate and go on to become good and constructive citizens Oh and the students in the video weren't even studying science which just made it more cringe worthy
  22. In the highly unlikely and indubitably disastrous event that the EU crashes who is going to provide economic stability and prosperity for countries like Czech, who is the alternative ? Mother Russia is not your savior as you well know we lived in economic growth and stability 20 years before joining EU, we will manage to do so after as well, but thanks for your concerns The world has changed and so have ways to ensure economic prosperity Its is much more logical, sustainable and effective to negotiate trade deals if you part of a larger, united block of countries like the EU than to be on your own The EU represents the worlds wealthiest union of countries, I am not sure why you think leaving it would make any realistic economic sense ?

  24. Yes in the case of the recent Cape Town drought my family and friends living in Cape Town bought bottled water in large quantities and would store the water, for example, in there garages but not everyone can afford to buy bottled water, this is just a reality for a country like SA where we have massive economic gap between people Take a look at the conditions some impoverished people live in and consider how they could pay for bottled water https://za.pinterest.com/susansmit/squatter-camps-south-africa/?lp=true
  25. Its nice for you guys living in first world countries to believe that but in many countries people have to pay for water and when you have droughts these costs can and do increase in the form of taxes\tariffs https://www.timeslive.co.za/news/south-africa/2018-05-10-cape-town-explains-water-tariffs-pipe-network-costs-more-than-water/
