The EPL was obviously always amongst the best, but with the recent (in my opinion) decline of competition in La Liga (where the hell are deportivo and valencia lately?), and the disastrous changes in Serie A, the EPL is undoubtedly the highest quality league around at the moment.
Kind of sad, really. We're basically saying that the EPL is the best league in the world because the others found a way to f*ck it up.
I approve of Carnitas
Me brot myexka!
Houses were washed away at New Orleans FFS. A system that was made to keep the water out failed horribly. That hasn't got anything to do with the environment, that's just poor building.
New Orleans is barely part of this country. Sheeet, they have parishes instead of counties down there, they half speak a different language, they are tops in the U.S. in superfund sites, and they typically have the worst education rates and schools in the country.
You're lumping together Rodeo Drive with South Central L.A., bub.
Ever since I found out that the United States of America demolished their own World Trade Center tours I've been a huge fan of their government. That shit takes balls.
And we took out the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, and we're coming after the Home Depot Center, dammit! :faq2:
I always wondered why Americans went that route with houses. In Europe, buildings are built to last for centuries. In America, buildings are built to last 20 years. I guess it is all about the profit one can make in constantly turning over the property.
So . . . is Greed to blame . . . or is it . . . Jesus?
It's like Eddie Izzard said about history in Florida ... "Here this historical hotel has been on this site for
fifty years!"
events like New Orleans, the Virginia Tech Murders and now this can be prevented.
Not to be callous, but I will anyway -- since you're typically the standard bearer here on this account, Andries. But the deaths in New Orleans or Va Tech amount to a molehill compared to the mountain of mortuary work we do in this country just from our industrialized Triple Whopper Death Factory (tm).
The way I see it, the media in America seem to obsessed with the aftermath. They tell tales of victims and saviours. But the American public swallows all that bullshit. In truth you should be asking how the hell it's possible in the first place. And not once.
The media is obsessed. But they're desperate. They've always needed glimpses of the freeway carnage to pull in interest. And bored Americans eat that crap up. But hey -- I don't watch
American Idol, so what do I know about all my neighbors?
But then again, you've got Frenchies who obsess over the British Royal family to this day. And they last time they had their own, they cut their heads off. How twisted is
that?
But yes -- I immediately asked how it was possible in the first place. It seemed pretty insanely fantastic, really. And if it didn't, that's when it wouldn't be such a rarity. Because if it were as common as you seem to think, it would be a non-story.
But Alexi Lalas said that MLS was the best in the world, and Alexi is never wrong.
He is right, you know.
But I heard a commentator say that the Premiership was the best on my TV and television never lies.
Oh, this is getting good.
9/11 had obvious reasons, and probably uglier to come the next years. This is what you get when you play it dirty all the years, this is what happens when you piss a group in their own lands thousands of Kilo meters away from your home. If everyone mind their own country and stay there, no ugly incidents like these would happen.
Man, you're as bad as all the Americans who think they can isolate the psyche of why "all Muslims become terrorists" blah blah blah. To argue that 9/11 was mere cause-and-effect, pure nutcases aside, is as foolish as arguing that Islam is cause-and-effect to violence and murder, pure nutcases aside. There's a fine line between the explanation of people being fuck*d up criminals and the explanation that there was some much bigger higher order and plan for divine retribution.
You see that backwards thinking all the time when an earthquake hits 40 miles from San Francisco, the Christian religious freaks go into hyper-analysis overdrive, and the next thing you learn that god is punishing gays even when "He's" really screwing over über-Catholic migrant farmworkers from Mexico in the Santa Cruz mountain hills by the epicenter.
Just this week, a famous 33-year-old chef in Chicago who founded a renowned restaurant called Alinea was diagnosed with a form of cancer of the mouth. He was famous for introducing a form of new cuisine perfected by Ferran Adria of El Bulli in Spain called "molecular gastronomy" -- basically chemical decomposition of food and repurposed into weird forms like foams, suspensions, etc. So what do all these educated palates do? They start claiming that the food gave him cancer. "Must have been the tomato foam that gave him cancer of the mouth."
Talk about the brain going back to the dark ages of evolution where we smeared our crap on cave walls for art. When we looked at comets in the sky and associated them to divine retribution and cosmic annihilation.
Sometimes there's isn't this mystical, higher order and rational explanation for why fuck*d up sh*t happens. Sometimes people are just clearly fuck*d in the head. Ask most serial killers -- you're never going to get a logical, cause-and-effect answer for their actions.
They teach you to hate Arabs and Muslims and all instead of understanding or explaining why a group would kill themselves and went that mad to do actions like these. Find the reasons people, that's how you solve the problem for next time, and not the outcome, what is done is done, try to live with that and FIX IT! Sitting in front of TV and crying like old women doesn't solve anything.
But that's a cop-out, snoop. You just took individual decision-making and will and thrown it out the window. As long as people keep believing there's some magic key that will suddenly unlock and stop Muslim terrorists from blowing themselves up and everything around them, people will continue to believe that there's some magic formula that can flip Muslims from being good people or bad people.
This is as much a political fantasy as believing poverty is the cause of terrorism and therefore no Muslim doctors would ever hatch a bad London bombing plot. Blaming America for 9/11 involves as much childish critical thinking as blaming Islam for terrorists.
