did anyone hear about the massive wall they are creating?

no, not talking about trump, im talking about the germans. in one town, they have created a wall taller than the berlin wall (12f) to keep germans safe from migrants

Wow. Guess that's how it is down in Munich/Bavaria. The German south is similar to the American south in many ways. :lol:

It's a pity nobody voted for Jill Stein, she seems the most sane and morally balanced one by quite a long way!


Yeah, "not a chance for Trump" probably came from the part of me that lacks the imagination to actually picture it happening. The motivated voters are a good point, that's also what Michael Moore keeps going on about. Trump actually winning would be so damn crazy.. but it would somehow feel more right than Hillary winning. :lol:

Yeah. I think people are just sick of the "more of the same"-ism way of doing things, be it Republican or Democrats, that they're now ready to go full batshit and bring in someone as yet untested, rather than elevate someone like Hillary who has already done so much damage. She's been party to quite a lot of nasty and inappropriate goings on, and is part of the same "club" who pushes for military intervention and interference in foreign places which are no threat to any of us BEFORE they interfere there. She also received donations from some Saudi high-ups, and those guys support full bore terrorists in the Middle East, which makes it look like Hillary fully intends to keep the current situation going. Basically putting America and ISIS on the same side in some cases, more or less! America already has quite a bit of debt and already spends insane amounts on military related stuff, I think people are sick of their taxes being wasted like that, instead of being spent on things that could make the lives of the tax-paying Americans better.

The Donald may be "gifted" $20m worth of stocks and shares in various arms manufacturers if he wins, mind you. And I think the President hardly matters sometimes, there are some insane nutters who love wars and nukes who seem to be permanent influential members of US political circles like John McCain and Ash Carter who seem borderline insane, even just from the Wikis I have read!

No I love living in America. I just thought it was funny because its true lol. The Harambe jokes are still going. I was watching a 3 year old ram comparison video the other day (bored at work) and someone commented "How fast should YOUR ram be? How fast should HA ram be" :lol:

Yeah, was showing someone at work the difference in speed only shows it face in certain applications. Not gaming, which is all he does. He's still new to PC and was going to waste money on upgrading from 1600 to 2400 when the money would be best spent elsewhere.

edit: Old Linus video. He didn't believe me, his own IT department, but believes the guy on YouTube. :roll:

In moments like these I hope I had more accounts in us pages to troll.

I need some salt for my popcorn.
