What Are You Doing Right Now? (168 Viewers)

I don't follow any of this Twitter stuff but I did enjoy reading through his account just now. Seems obsessed with "British" people taking over and how authentic and Italian he and his content is, but he's clearly a guido.

When Juvefc.com dude sold the site and twitter account to a Liverpool fan who also runs a similar website/account combo for Liverpool news, this guy and his maxstatsman.com Juventus website kind of stepped up to fill the void. Except he's super toxic and his site instead of actually having input and adding context to Juventus news literally 95% of the time just translates articles or tweets about Juventus.

He has a reputation for being brash and rude because the rest of the online/twitter Juventus fandom knows he's just in it for a buck. His website is AWFUL and constructed poorly, covered with ads (Especially on mobile) and again 95% of the content is them translating clickbait Italian journalism and then him clapping at people on twitter when people don't treat him like he's fucking Schira or Romano.

Massive chip on his shoulder and he also is an internet tough guy.

Read a few posts. Seems like the sort of person this forum would attract, I wonder who he is here?

Btw @swag , are you still in portugal? I'm going there on thursday. Trivial question, but how is it with payment over there, they easily accept cards? Or weirdoes like Germany who ask for cash often. Maybe a mix or mostly cards I'm guessing (compared to sweden which is 99.9% cashless lol).

Yup. And payment here is pretty dope in the city. You can have dinheiro (cash) issues at the old school places or possibly the countryside.

But Portugal has their own banking network of old called Multibanco. It's like an old French Minitel system practically, without the content but with ATM cash and payment services layered on top. Americans be using Venmo like it's from the future, and MB Way has been doing all that and more for years here.

You might run into card scenarios where a payment only accepts MultiBanco but not VISA or MasterCard, but that's rare.

But whatever you do, don't bring any stinky old credit cards like they still have in corners of the U.S. that require signatures for approval instead of a PIN and chip.

How is the pooping situation in Portugal? Is it a high-tech experience like Japan or is it like the San Siro where you have to take a dump in a giant hole in the floor?

Great question tbh

Good looking, the fact they use cards extensively is good enough for me (asked a Portuguese guy I know too). Have visa/master card so nothing unusual here. Thanks for the quick reply. Its less of a headache not worrying about cash everywhere like certain trips forces you to.


And I figured Portugal might be bit payment savvy, because the festival I'm going to on Saturday has high tech wrist bands you charge with funds and you pay and book everything in festival with.

In Albufeira it's 'shit where you stand'.

In between. We have some places with toilet paper for the plebs who don't know any better, but we are a bidet country. Part of the proud Bidet Commonwealth. Anybody from the subcontinent with a bum gun would approve.

I haven't seen any toilet pits per se in Portugal, as you find in parts of SE Asia, Africa, or the Czech Republic.

But I will let you in another secret... bidets aside, we have better toilets than the U.S. No, I don't mean the stall door privacy thing, which is legit. I mean toilets that basically don't back up easily, because I am a one-man annihilation machine at times. Two Chipotle burritos and I could take out the average American high school with a biblical flood.

Sure, Donald Trump griped many times that the damn Democratic Congress tied his hands from allowing 15-liter toilet flushes as a government standard. But it's not a question of water volume. The designs just work better here with the same amount of water if not less. I don't get it, but you cannot argue with the results.

You going to Afro Nation Portugal?

Yes, I've done the festival thing here, and even the smaller ones have credit card top-ups on wristbands, etc. So that's likely exactly the setup.

In Utah people poop wherever the hell they want.

There’s nothing that will ruin your week faster than walking around a job site and stepping into an ankle deep pile of bum turds

Beats stepping in a hole to find Joseph Smith's golden plates.

Yeah man, Im going to afro nation! Been dying to go for years, had tickets for same festival and same location 2 years ago, but then corona happened. Using same tickets this time actually.


I been big festival goer for 22 years, my home town in Sweden has annual reggae festival so caught the bug there. Been to music festivals in London, Germany, France, Italy, Spain many times (rototom sunsplash, 8 days of reggae vibes). Mainly reggae/dancehall (reggae music is perfect for live performance, cant say same for some other genres) but also mixed music festivals.

But this is the first time I'm going to a pure African music festival in afro nation. Which is cool, shows how much the music grown in pop culture past years when this is possible. Besides Chris Brown and Megan Stallion, who aren't even the headliners here as they would been in other festivals I been to, all other artists are Africans (and some UK afro artists), and some carribeans. Pretty nice when Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, Koffee and so on can carry their own festival.


About the credit tops thing on wrist band, as said been to festivals all over Europe and my overly digitized payment Sweden, and this Portugal festival is first time I hear about wrist band payment. Prett cool.

Some sad, yet funny, strange and frustrating situation is developing here. Farmers are protesting, and they’re protesting hard. Due to the CO2 pollution many farmers will have to lower their stock- or even move their farm. Resulting in massive protest. They’re blocking highways, government buildings, protest in front of homes of politicians. Due to their tractors and no use of violence police basically don’t have a clue of what to do. And it’s mostly causing major traffic jams and some intimidation for politicians.

Its this almost on a daily basis now in a relatively small country with many farmers. They’re everywhere

Farmers have too much money driving tractors around all day with these fuel prices.
