You have done some impressive traveling young grasshopper I have worked on projects in most Sunni states in the ME, yes they treat you fine as a white person but I didnt like any place because of my views on SJ I felt the most comfortable in Bahrain but that was because of the bars and Russian hookers, they were the best people for me to have a normal conversation with and this is hard to believe but meaningful conversation is important to me

I'll be honest I have no interest in seeing the Far East, I still love going on holiday to Europe and the UK because there is always so much to see And the USA is always amazing especially when you realize each state is like a different country its very exciting

No way I could pick just one but Washington, North Carolina, and New Mexico would be at the top of the list Least favorite? Mississippi 40 !!!! That must be the record, what didn't you like about Mississippi

well, am betting the % is lower than say the number o' english teenagers who believe winston churchill is a fantasy character. am willing to bet hard money that the % is less than the number o' russians who believe the chelyabinsk meteor were not a meteor at all-- top choices seem to include a US Govt. conspiracy, Russian Govt. conspiracy or aliens. HA! Good Fun! But Gromnir there are some very nasty and racist things people say about black South African men.. And some of the comments are just not worth even debating

This is considered a highly offensive thing to say, I'm not sure if its even true in SA ?

Sure, let me know if you change your mind

But Volo he does have a point For me it was Game of Thrones latest thread, you guys over-analyzed that series like nothing I have ever seen Sometimes in life its best just to not find intentional fault for no reason that makes sense

Varana please remind me again, you are a history lecturer?

Sorry my friend but this is one time you will have to admit you wrong These types of posts are very relevant and interesting because you share your life experiences This is not about people having to agree with you, it goes way past that. Its very interesting for me, I tell people in SA about you because many black South Africans think white people killed every Native American when they landed....so they think Native Americans dont exist and they not being facetious they just have limited understanding of history because of Apartheid

Yes but I can buy it online and get it delivered to you? Dont worry about the money, consider it a gift And you may be wondering " why would he want to buy me a present ", my response would be has no one ever bought you a present ?

Thats not a very flattering way to represent either candidates? Flattering? No. Accurate? Oh yeah. But on a serious note, a person doesn't have to like either candidate but cant we respect the institution of the election? Its the principle An election like this in the USA is unique, it is too important to dismiss all the various people who support either candidate by name calling

WOD I appreciate your honesty on topics, I just want honesty. I dont get offended and I think you and I have a very good forum relationship? Do you not like the UK and why are you negative about the EU? I don't know why you think I don't like UK, and I think I expressed my views on EU previously. But the short answer is I believe in self-government. Okay but just so I'm clear when you say " self-government " can you go into detail and give examples

I think Mrs May is far too canny a politician to do this, indeed her moderate stance in the referendum is probably what has almost guaranteed that she will lead the party in the immediate future. By playing the middle of the road she is appealing to a rather large demographic who are sick of the extremism and rhetoric, and also taking over the role that New Labour occupied. Now defining what exactly our position will be going forward as a trade partner, well that may be a minefield to tread, and one I don't envy anyone attempting. The expectations and factions are probably just as entrenched as those being brought into the referendum. I don't think anyone will be satisfied in the long term. That said I also don't believe Mrs May has the grit or sheer bloody mindedness of our last lady premier (who does?) and thus we cannot expect as good a deal with Europe as she might have achieved. " extremism and rhetoric " ? In the UK...what are talking about. Lets not embellish the reality of politics in the UK Nonek.,....our American friends are going through " extremism and rhetoric " with the various new political changes But to suggest that is happening in then UK?

Well I appreciate the fact you are prepared to answer, why would you as a French Canadian want the EU to fail ?

Yes thats exactly what I thought he meant, racism is a life time experience for some people and if someone claims " they experienced racism for 20 minutes " it could be seen as that person doesn't know what they are talking about But the reality is most white people dont know racism is because we have never been subjected to the real and at times generational racism that many people are subjected Nowadays in SA and around the world some white people say things like " black people are racist because they saidn they hate white people or we are told we need to share our wealth " Is this really racism? Doesnt it have to be about intent and impact to be meaningful? Oh and this isnt an attack on white people, how could we understand what something feels like if we never really been exposed to it?
-
lol You may laugh but most white people can intellectualize racism but we dont really understand what it feels like But I doubt you also have experienced real racism? The historical view some Europeans have of East Europeans as being uneducated or uncultured is not real racism because its really not relevant or true ...so I'm not sure if you have other experiences ? I just find the phrase "I have experienced real racism for an entirety of 20 minutes!" to be inherently funny. Carry on. Okay but whats funny about it? Its true

She's also ignoring the report of the police chief who said they tried to negotiate him, only to have those negotiations not work with the shooter expressing sentiment of wanting to kill more people. Yes but also what she said really irritated me because she was white and suppose to be educated But her misunderstanding of what BLM means and how she is suppose to support it has made her sound both stupid and insulting because in SA most people automatically support BLM because due to Apartheid they believe African Americans are being intentionally executed by white policeman Now for me I understand the BLM has validity but that doesnt mean everything they say they believe is real, of course some it is emotional and more about a negative perception they may have But to now think the Police should have been " sensitive " to an insane gunman is actually doing a disservice to racial relations ...you not helping BLM by going this route

Another winning component in this game is how CDPR has implemented Romance but also " mature " options through the various choices you need to make in way that comes across as very realistic I have never had to consider my choices as much as the Witcher series and the Romance... I feel I love Triss yet Yen is smoking hot .....but I think I will chose Triss at the end .
