@NealC
What is an AV Club? You´re going to have to help me out with
these strange expressions you`re pulling out of the air. AV
Club? My German translator doesn’t have that word in it so I may
have to google it.
It could be you people on the east coast have odd expressions
the rest of us don`t.
It´s iike you are trying to talk in riddles or something, to
confuse me.

A picture of the A/V club back in your day.
Tech nerds, the opposite of the Chess club.
I guess I am going to have to use simpler metaphors for you.

If I remember correctly, Martin tried with the photos in a -
very interesting - thread about sightseeing near our respective
homes. Now, I don't know about any of the others, but I'm not
much into photography (videos even less), so, even though I
enjoyed his thread, I didn't really feel able to contribute.

That was probably your day too Neal. So it’s the audio /visual
club. I don’t think we even had one back then. That was probably
for you rich New York boys.

The Summary
By: the lost minion Date: August 10, 2018, 12:37 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
OK, no new posts, so let's summarize:
=================================================
Users opinions about the forum:
No-one against trolling.
Problems related to the content: Too little world
politics/social issues/current events - other than American
affairs.
What we can do:
A new section: Photo/video section for users’ private stuff,
memes etc.
A new section: World current events
An old section: The Language Learning section needs reducing

And we have to hear about his “wall” he`s building all the time
(as if we needed it, what a joke).
[/quote]
Why do you not like the WALL? Look at China The Great Chinese
Wall what a nice tourist destination. And then your favorite
the Great Berlin Wall too bad they demolished it but still folks
are buying remnants from it. Imagine the Great TRUMP Wall all
along Mexican border 60 feet tall and on the top of the Wall
every mile there neon lighted word "TRUMP". Wouldn't it be
great?

@Pasha
So, where have you been?!
You`re gonna have to help me fight off NealC and Jerry. I need
to recruit someone to be on my side. Those two have been quite
for a few days, so maybe the`ve calmed down. I certainly hope
so.
I am happy to say I have a new client who happens to think like
I do. He told me today that he`d actually like to be an „ex-pat“
someday, you know, that`s an American like me who wants to
leave the US and live permanently in another country, a normal
place, because we know how much better life is outside of this
dump? He`s a smart man and nice guy too and he pays his bills
(now watch NealC and Jerry call me a hypocrite and closeted
capitalist just because I like to eat once in a while, have
electricity and be able to use a telephone. Can’t be a socialist
and get paid for anything I suppose is the logic, or illogic of
it.......Geez).
Anyway, this is a classic „day-in-the-life“ you Europeans don’t
have to deal with, just to show you how lucky you are. I was
driving up to a stop light (we have to have thousands of them
everywhere because everyone here is too stupid to know how to
design better roads and enact better traffic rules, like they
have in Europe). In front of me is one of these typical monster
American trucks (they`re everywhere here, but you almost never
see them in Europe). Why these idiots have to drive these
ridiculous things, I have no idea. Some guy ahead of me was
driving with some woman next to him. The truck had those „naked
lady mudflats“ on it (Jerry and NealC know what I`m talking, but
I`m sure normal European people do not. They`re these mudflats
over the back tires (why they even think they need mudflaps is
beyond me) and they have this kind of sketch of a naked woman on
them. It`s not really nakedness, but it`s just a sketch like
this sideview of a woman with long hair, large breasts, a large
bottom, and long legs. I have no clue what these are supposed to
mean other than that the driver is some super-macho heterosexual
male or something. It´s complete idiocy. Then in the back window
of this truck, there`s this sketch of some military assault
rife, I don’t know what kind, an AK-47 or something, and a
website listed below the sketch linking to some screwball site
that probably instructs people on how to illegally convert their
non-fully automatic assault rifles into fully automatic ones (I
guess everyone needs one of these in the USA- what a lunatic
gun culture) and next to this rifle sketch are the words, „She
looks better with her top off.“ Then I look down and what do I
see? Ah, a TEXAS license place! What a surprise. That`s one of
those states that Jerry and NealC say people are leaving
California for because we`re too „liberal“ here. I hope that
maniac goes back to Texas. I don’t know how he ever wandered
into California. This is the level of kookiness I have to deal
with every day living in the USA. Not to mention, driving on a
freeway is talking your life in your hands with people honking
at you and passing on the right and left at the same time. It`s
like total chaos.
So, coming to the US is like visiting a psychiatric institution.
Only on a BIG scale, with the exception of a handful of normal
good people.
