Can one be both civilized and immature?
1. I hate Americans. But alas, I also hate Europeans.

2. No. They are mutually exclusive. Its in Wikipedia and the Thesaurus.

I have been called crazy for having an EC passport and yet choosing to live/work here. Um, it's actually not so bad. I like it.

I hate Parisians, but I understand their attitude. All those fucking tourists would drive me crazy. I don't know how native NYers don't go on a tourist killing spree.

Who says we don't? (We keep it quiet, though. So shhhh.)

Original whiff.

Wow, this may be my first. It is quite a sensation. Like reading the chainsaw posts, but less sticky.

Have you ever considered moving to Antarctica?

It's not that bad at all. It's just that I'm lazy, and I really don't want to work as hard as your average American. I also like sitting in a cafe and reading the newspaper. And having a beer at lunch. And temperate weather. That actually may be the biggest draw: not too hot and not too cold - gotta love the Gulf Stream. Also, there's the topless beaches, and the proximity to mountains and ocean/sea.

When I was a boy and use to mix anything into my bourbon, it was diet coke, primarily because the high sugar content in regular coke makes hangovers worse.

I actually liked all the Parisians I met. I liked the way they refused to deal with any foreigner who wasted their time. We need that action over here, to move the lardarses clogging 7/11, Gap, Polo, J Crew and every other line I'm forced to stand in while purchasing a small necessity.

Brother, every morning I sit on the train, look around as I listen to my Ipod and think "Fuck, a conveyor belt of nervous plasma, shuffling and frittering away on meaningless tasks, playing their parts, wasting time. What a mess." But what are you going to do? Its the human condition.

Live from week to wweek, get high, enjoy your friends and try to forget you're in the Boredom Matrix. My life ain't so bad. In fact, some folks tell me its good. I figure some day life will beat me down enough that I'll placidly agree. And I have to admit... the ride's been pretty fun so far.

It's unfortunate, especially since Oceania is always at war with Eurasia.

Not until I was overwhelmed with a sudden burst of misanthropy while reading your post.
