You sure? I will give you time to ruminate on this post.....you sure you really want to say " The Witcher series " was a bad series ? My list is long and vast....interminable I would say and volo name has plenty space near it

Pretty much all.... ... and just about all of them amount to nothing but dogs, ponies, smoke, and mirrors. Thats untrue, there have been leaks that have helped make people outside of the White House aware of controversial decisions and developments by Trump and sometimes bad decisions by his advisors

Must be not your cup of tea then. What exactly throws you off? I doubt he will give a cogent or convincing answer, anyone who didnt enjoy the Witcher series I am putting on my list of " possible fake RPG players "

Oh ...dammit, you stopped me there young grasshopper...you outwitted me because technically you right

What are you suggesting? The Witcher series was VERY successful and profitable http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/03/30/the-witcher-series-sales-pass-25-million volo you need to apologize, lets see how mature you are

I have had some excellent work developments, I am moving into a new role as Product Manager of a really popular and strategic cloud based eDiscovery and forensics software product So my role is much more sales and business focused with the technical understanding. My work is sending several of us on mini-MBA training which looks very pertinent http://reallifemba.co.za/about/

And this translates to acting how exactly?That she can act, isn't it obvious ? Is this going to be filmed in Poland ? How is dancing and giving interview proving she can act? Are you stoned again? Would be great if this was filmed in Poland. No details or info about it yet. Did netflix shoot any of their productions outside US? No Im not stoned, its a bit early and Im cooking lunch But I will be smoking soon Okay lets see either way, its going to be good. You must be proud of the Witcher series. Its the best fantasy game I have ever played

Again with the xenophobia Bruce? Im confused? Do you have a good leader ...please stop being a drama queen, you dont know a really bad leader so you should be thankful https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrzej_Duda In SA we have one of the most corrupt and useless people I have ever seen in my life...Jacob Zuma https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Zuma He has cost SA billions of Rands and still wont step down. He has allowed a foreign family of Indians the Guptas to integrate themselves in tenders and government parastatals http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-22513410 They control a faction within government that somehow managed to remove our finance minister.....twice http://money.cnn.com/2017/03/30/investing/south-africa-finance-minister-pravin-gordhan-ousted/index.html

And this translates to acting how exactly? That she can act, isn't it obvious ? Is this going to be filmed in Poland ?

Candice and her friend came over today for a barbeque, I really like her but its not sustainable due to her working hours. She works Mon-Thursday 2 pm-3 am, Saturday sometimes Its strange but I cannot ever visit the club any women works if Im seeing her.....I am not sure why because its not like we dating and Im not judgemental or weird about what she does obviously. It happened the last time.,.....anyway its like I feel guilty but I dont mention any uncertainty and Candice just assumed I wouldn't want to do. Which is much better as I dont want to try to self-analyze my own inconsistency for fear of what I may find later I find I can back after a month or so and everything is good So realistically I would see her one day as I assume we both have other things and to do. I am not going to say anything now because she has asked for no commitment and .....yes I have to say its been great seeing two 25 year old women in hot pants drinking and dancing at the barbeque and as I mentioned last time they just want to have a good day and not be pressured and she never asks any personal questions about me. I made some awesome potato bake and a bought salad and we are just having the meat ...very chilled but fun

Geez, that sounds great Im sure what I am about to tell you is old news but sometimes I love to roast garlic Take 2 bulbs and separate the cloves with skin on into a tinfoil packet. Put some olive oil and personal spices, experiment with what you like Put the oven on 350 degrees F, 180 celcius. Let the packet roast for 20 minutes or so The bulbs should pop out and be crushed easily into a paste 4 I then mix it directly into butter and I have delicious garlic butter but it can be used directly on steak or toast for a delectable toast and cheese for example

Oh my hat I love garlic, I fry it with everything...well most things What is black garlic ?

Sorry volo but the unanimous view is you cannot claim to have honestly known Hilary would not win because your criticism was very similar and repetitive of someone who didn't like her because you had a personal bias You didn't really dismiss her with any reasonable comments ....lets just be honest

Sanders? I am very surprised to hear you say that....he promised things that appealed to some people who literally wanted him to breakup the USA investment banks. It would have been impossible but imagine how that would have appeared to anyone who disliked the USA I still stand by Hilary but she wasn't the right person. In an inadvertent way numerous SJ groups I use to align to within the USA had tainted the purpose of what SJ is suppose to be about. I couldn't see it but after the election I realized most of us had become far too concerned with what we defined as " offensive " and not what actually the person really stood for. We also allowed some people to justify bad behavior but because we were convinced it was about SJ we made excuses .....and that undermined the legitimacy of the original campaign even more Anyway its much better now for me and I learnt certain lessons

Shady looking back now, and obviously this is just hypothetical, do you regret ignoring what Obama said about voting for Hilary ? For me I still think Obama was much more legitimate but I also can now see the USA had to do some restructuring around certain SJ realities and how certain groups interacted. In a way if Hilary had won the USA would have continued to appear to be " progressive and liberal " yet there was a hidden and real insidious toxicity

Economy situation of US says otherwise. That was and is a result of pure market sentiment and yes he has made things easier but the tax cuts and other promises are now in question. There is real doubt amongst certain investors

I would agree if Trump would appoint all those people, but that is not the case. The problem is Obama appointed administration is lashing out because their candidate lost the election. All that this situation proves is democrats should not hold ANY position of any level in government, ever. If they are so petty as to endanger their own country just to make it difficult for the guy they don't like who happens to be the president now. Any of this endangers the country? Heh, and I used to joke that the Appleby's would neutralize him. You don't think that government employees not doing their job properly, actively refusing to do their job and leaking information left and right is not endangering? You must have very low standards in Poland for leaders if you think Trump is so great ? What exactly has Trump done that you think he is great.....remember most of things he claimed he has not done....like leave NATO and align with Russia I told you not to believe that

volo have you actually watched her dance routines and how she designs the choreography or the way she interacts in progressive interviews with people who respect her? Like Ellen Degeneres....trust me she is very articulate and rationale ? If you dont agree what black actress would you suggest ?

Redheads have no souls, so can't have those on our tv sets! It's a disease that spreads! Seriously though, I hope they don't diversify the cast just for the sake of diversifying. It gets pretty annoying and in some cases is just plain stupid, especially when done on historical shows just to make that era to seem more accepting and modern. Yes Gorgan is right and Nicki Minaj could definitely play Triss but the Witcher should be white because of the Polish theme?

Hey they are not call bribes here! They are called campaign donations! GD what do you define as corruption in the USA ?

Hint #1... Ask yourself, why do you hold the views you do? Were you raised to have those views, did you step out of the other side of bed one morning and had a different set of world views, did something happen in life that gave you certain views, etc. Keep asking the question and answer yourself honestly why you have those views (don't need to share them with anyone than yourself). If you think deep enough about it, you might just realise that very few of those views are your own, it's assumed views which you have taken upon yourself. For me, the key question is, Why did I do that? and what/who was behind it? (individuals, organisations, some gestalt "entity" etc.). I ask myself such questions all the time. I have a relevant response, I enjoy these chats with you Gorthfucious At the premise you right in the sense nothing I know or believe is uniquely my own views but this is exactly what I would expect and rely on Mankind has been growing and improving for thousands of years and its due to this history and numerous mistakes that allow us nowadays to believe and support certain laws and views. I like the fact we have become enlightened about how to create sustainable economies and how we support Democracies So going back to your overall point, yes I know what I believe is not my own original thoughts and ideology but that doesnt mean its not something that offers us a better way of living and interacting in the global world Another way of making my point would be " what thinking or views would be better than believing in things like human rights and trying to reduce poverty levels and ensuring we live countries that offer Democratic governments " ?

I don't think I agree with that last part. There are plenty of decent candidates that did run for the Republicans and could have run for the Democrats. This is purely my own opinion here so take that for what it's worth but I do think I'm pretty well read on there things: For the Democrats these candidates should have performed better than Clinton nationally: James Webb US Senator VA: Smart, practical, level headed and good name recognition. US Army Vet. He wasn't socialist enough to get traction in the primaries but would have shown well vs Trump. He has no negative baggage. Brian Schweitzer Governor of Montana: Big advocate of Federalism, He's likable with a good record or states rights and workers rights as well as practical environmental regulation. The quintessential Jacksonian Democrat. But he's anti-gun control so the national Democrats won't have him. They don't tolerate dissent on any issue. Tulsi Gabbard US Rep HI. The DNC showed her the door when she endorsed Sanders (dissent on any issue will not be tolerated by the DNC) but she has a clean record, military service, opposed the TPP and sequestration, and bank bailouts. She should be the rising star of the Democrat Party but they won't have her. Corey Booker US Senator NJ: Centrist Democrat with a reputation for working with opposition party. Of everyone on this list he's be the most likely to make deals and compromises to accomplish goals. He has some great ideas about tax free enterprise zones to rejuvenate inner cities. His gun control advocacy would hurt him in flyover country. Republicans. The thing that helped Trump the most is the number of candidates in the Republican field. Trump was not winning primaries by majority. He just was getting more because support was spread so thin among all the others. Take away Rubio, Kasich, & Cruz (or any combination of 3 prior to Super Tuesday) and it's likey Trump would not have been nominated. Trump is president today in large part because a few GOP candidates didn't "take one for the team" and bow out so support could coalesce around one of the others.Rand Paul US Senator KY: OK, this was my choice. If he won the nomination I'd have voted for him. I did donate to his campaign during the primaries. He's more in the traditional Republican mold than his father is, but still has a strong libertarian streak. Of all the candidates he would have been the biggest advocate for fiscal responsibility. Nikki Haley US Ambassador to UN: Think Sarah Palin with a brain. She checks the conservative box without being a fanatic and a four year stint as UN ambassador will giver foreign policy cred. But she could have gone on the strength of a successful term as governor of SC. Marco Rubio US Senate FL: There is nothing wrong with Rubio. For some reason he was never able to get his campaign in gear. I think he was focusing on defeating Clinton when he should have been focusing on Trump. But nationally he would have performed better to the general electorate than he did to the primary. Tim Scott US Senate SC: OK, this one is a bit of a reach because he's still light on electoral experience but he's the balance between fiscal conservative and social liberal that general election voters would gravitate to. Put any of those Democrats vs Trump or any of those Republicans vs Clinton and I think they would have won a general election. I I think the story of the 2016 election is that Republicans had results similar to all other candidates in recent history, despite having a candidate with a history of racism, sexism, sexual assault, and general mismanagement of his various businesses. Politicians are already generally a bunch of corrupt, seedy rat bastards, Here is an interesting question, do you consider some of the current or previous Swedish politicians corrupt? How would you define the type of corruption you post? The reason I ask is I want to share my view of political corruption as Im sure we have vastly different definitions of this

That's a start. Still a long way to go, but it's a start No need to be so enigmatic, please explain how my views aren't my own? Hint #1... Ask yourself, why do you hold the views you do? Were you raised to have those views, did you step out of the other side of bed one morning and had a different set of world views, did something happen in life that gave you certain views, etc. Keep asking the question and answer yourself honestly why you have those views (don't need to share them with anyone than yourself). If you think deep enough about it, you might just realise that very few of those views are your own, it's assumed views which you have taken upon yourself. For me, the key question is, Why did I do that? and what/who was behind it? (individuals, organisations, some gestalt "entity" etc.). I ask myself such questions all the time. Okay, I see your point. I need time to think about this and compose my response

Yep. Well spotted and ironic I suppose

Red, trust me there are several important lessons I have learnt about how to have a healthy, positive and sustainable lifestyle If you a politician you cannot make the media your enemy for no reasonable reason. He was criticizing the media back in the days when he needed to win the Republican presidential candidacy, it was unprecedented and as I said he has absolutely made enemies of numerous media institutions He was under the mistaken impression that a man can be greater than the global media, its not likely. Anyone in the public limelight can have a good and respectful relationship with the media, the onus is on them as the media is generally not hard to understand or rationalize
