What I find even mroe annoying is those posting life advice and positivism. Sharing quotes about how to be successful and make millions as if it's their life moto. Fucktards (can be men, but more often then not women) be sitting on fb and spitting that life knowledge like it's something profound they share with the world.
Surely you must be familiar with Demotivators:

No really, I'm not kidding, some would heard the name in passing, or know the Hurricane song, but most I doubt would recognize him. You would be suprised what peeps born after 90s know :p

True, I know a 19 year old that can tell me lable by lable every little blues/rock record made in the 50-60s (barely listens to anything after 80s), while my senior citizen neighbour barely knows anything outside 80s pop, it can be bizzarely different, mainly the latter example hehe.

I hate it when I read an Italian article 5 pages long and I understand pretty much everything. But when I'm supposed to write a sentence myself I forget words.

That, my friends, is a definition of being an idiot.

Thats by far the most insignificant part of his life and music, even if its big part of Reggae and Rasta movement, its totally missing the point of the whole message and positive thinking lifestyle to focus on the herb part of it alone, even if thats whats "cool" with youngsters.

I been to Reggae festivals as far as I can remember, and the posers who only focus on the pot part of it are so EASY to differentiate from the true appriciators of the music or vibe/message.

Yo who's that on your avatar? Looks like an anime version of Capitain Haddock, with less flair.

Nah, that's just the normal result of learning a language 95% via reading & listening and not by speaking and writing. Got pretty much the same problem with Spanish, and, to a lesser extent Italian as well right now ;)

That my friend is you still being in the early phase of the learning stage, you mastered comprehension to apoint, now you need to learn how to verbalize/form your thoughts and words in the language, two totally different ball parks.

That might be true.

However I never spoke English until like 3 years ago when I had an exam.
