I liked it more when we were discussing how Valentino Rossi is the Antichrist.

This can't be a race thread. We just had two posts in a row that were sensible

One thing I have learned from those posts is that Trump is the only sensible choice.

Clinton is way beyond just a crook. She sold out all women for personal power. She's a carpetbagger from the south. She and Bill stole goods from the White House. And she is quite likely a murderer, despite the absolution she received for killing Christopher Stevens and others.

Trump is probably a crook, too. But, as far as I know, he is just part of the same system that makes lots of questionable personalities rich. Neither of these people are my choice for a Presidential Candidate. But that's nothing particularly new for me.

This election isn't about ethics. Yeah both of them are crooks. Which one is a bigger one isn't really relevant. (A close look at Trump University and his ripping off subcontractors shows that Trump can more than hold his own on crookery front.)

However, one of the two is an ignorant idiot (or doing a very good impression of one) and all else aside nobody has ever called Hillary a fool.

I should follow the people from India, I suppose, where people die on the street, because their Karma is to die on the street. That is probably my misunderstanding, India is modern. It has nuclear weapons, because ...... well I am not quite sure why, except Pakistan has them, but India had them first so I guess that's not a good excuse. They have a no strike first policy.

India started its nuclear weapons program within months of China carrying out its first series of tests. That BTW would be in 1964, two years after the 1962 Indo-China war. China meanwhile was assisted in its nuclear program by the Soviets who set their program up as a response to....

Its called the Domino Effect, and its exactly why the election of Trump is an issue of concern to non-Americans around the world.

We're all in the same locked room watching the Americans contemplate giving a monkey (orangutan?) a loaded gun.

Thanks to globalization (in most respects, a boon to the developing world) if Trump drags the US economy into a recession (assuming he can refrain from upturning 70 years of nuclear peace) it will shave off at least between one to two percentage points off the global GDP growth. And that is something that'll effect every country in the world aside from maybe North Korea (..maybe that's why Kim Un Jong endorsed Trump in June).


"I would borrow knowing that if the economy crashed you could make a deal. And if the economy was good it was good so therefore you can't lose. It's like you make a deal before you go into a poker game. And your odds are much better." - Donald Trump

The great thing about democracy is that it gives every voter a chance to do something stupid. - Art Spander

Haha, I know Dub was joking.

I kept it the same as budoist because at least it gives some sense of uniformity to everything. I didn't post the grid girls picture because let's be real, I can go to Shovel's club and get something better along with STD's, or I could just post pictures of girls off porn sites. But I think that might make browsing this site at work difficult. Unless of course you don't have to work, and have someone else's wallet paying for everything.

Its was a complete joke. I tend to do that every now and then. Since we are talking, is there anyway to fix my answer to your pole in the other thread? I clicked on Aliex Asparagus but what I meant was rider not shown.

I meant the one with the black caterpillars for eyebrows. I think its Hector Espargaro. He will draft his way to the win this week.

Mate I have no idea, but I'll have a play with it and see if it can be deleted. I thought for a second Aleix himself or his mum and dad had actually joined the forum, I don't know who else on the planet would have thought he would win haha.

Edit:
Sorry mate, I fumbled through the settings but not sure If can edit results. if its possible I sure don't how.

Iannone apparently cleared to compete this weekend.

It has been published by a few pages, nothing official though.

Awesome! Hopefully he doesn't go full retard into the back of Lorenzo or his team mate!

I hope he doesn't go into anyones back...after all, he still needs to watch over his own...literally.

Our brightest strikes again (literal transcription):

"Jurnalist" (GJ): "Jorge Lorenzo, we saw after the last race in Misano the UGLY press conference, you exchanging words with Valentino Rossi about that manuver. Did anything change (some mumbling)..."
JL99 interrupts: "No, it was not ugly, I express my opinion, he laughed. I wanted he respect my opinion, not laugh, only that."
GJ: " Are you maybe disapointed that some are taking you seriously and some are not taking you seriously?"
JL99: "Doesn't care! When you say your true, and you say the true, you don't have to be...worry about what people think. In life you have to be yourself and you when you believe something you have to express yourself without any fear for what other people think."

I knew Lorenzo was not dumb, but what I really like/respect about him is that he is not affraid (and never was) of expressing his opinion. He doesn't want to be "politically correct".

Sorry for the mistakes, they are all intentional (direct typing).

I hate that they seem to edit the press conferences as I didn't see this. I liked having Pedrosa and Lorenzo in the conference they seem to give the best and most truthful(from their POV) answers.

I know it won't happen (although stranger things have e.g. Jack Miller) but I'd love to see Hayden win just to put a few of their noses out of joint haha

That would be good.

I'm getting tired of hearing about how Hayden lucked into the 2006 title.

Yes I get he didn't have as many wins as the great one had, but what is more impressive? Winning 2 races and winning the title? Or winning 5 races and not winning any title? Winning the title with 2 race wins is an infinitely more difficult feat because it requires an ungodly amount of consistency from the rider. That's something Nicky had in spades that entire season short of the Pedropedo at Estoril. Then you have to include in that consistency the ability to perform like that at this level when your team isn't giving you the full 100% unlike your unproven teammate.

He should still be in MotoGP instead of hacks like Bautista or Barbera.
