Why did she pay money for jeans in a state where I would throw mine out?

Now, my French is very rusty, but "dirigeants d'autres planetes" sounds very much like leaders of other planets...

If that's the case, I need some of whatever Jean-Claude Juncker was smoking:

Nobody can deny that the current situation made the life of that lady and her children infinitely more complicated, and it will make it more miserable in the future.

However, what about all the Chavs? No, I'm not being sarcastic. What about all the people whose life can hardly become more miserable, because it's been miserable all along with no hope for improvement? Life is shit for a lot of people, and it has been for a long time.

What were their options in this referendum?

Remain told them that their quality of living would decline in case of a Brexit, and that it would decline more slowly if they remain part of the EU. In short, they offered them fuck all. Any notion of reforming the EU from within to make it care about the proletariat is an illusion, and a costly one if you look at either Greece or the recessionary EU in general.

So they went with the demagogues, who spewed such outrageous lies that even Goebbels would be ashamed. But they made an offer nonetheless.

All this talk about stock prices or the exchange value of the Pound is meaningless dribble if you live in places like Nuneaton. How is telling them all to sod off an irrational decision if all they did for decades was shit on you?

So yeah, I fucking hate the anti-immigration part of the discussion. It's despicable. But the patronising reactions from not just the elites but also large swaths of the Remain campaign gives me assteroids.

The casual way they discuss how to ignore or reverse the result of the referendum is a sign of why it went this way in the first place. They look down on the decision made by "those people". It makes no sense to them, so it has to be irrational. Silly plebs are not informed enough to make smart decisions, let's educate them. Or better yet, let's make the decisions for them.

It just oozes condescension. And it breeds contempt.

To end on a personal note: how the German government now appears to be the moderating factor on the EU side is beyond fucked up, given how they were the ones to piss on the plebs the most with their anal fixation on austerity. You really cannot make this shit up...

Edit:
Here's one for sovereignty: just last night, Jean-Claude Juncker said that the European Commission doesn't want national parliaments to vote on CETA. What's the point of democracy then?

Ok, so :
1. Vangelis
2. ???? who?
3. Walter/Wendy Carlos

What about Jean Michelle Jarre?

Jean-Luc sounds like Sir Humphrey in this one.

lol - Cable is the son of Cyclops and Jean Grey's clone.
I must be a geek, but I've been waiting from the beginning of the x-men movies for Cable and Bishop. They had Bishop in the Alt universe in the last X-movie but we didn't really get to see him much. I'm hoping he comes back with Cable.

The point is that Volvo apparently has a contract with a new ad firm that is trying to make its mark with more and more viral advertising. What was the purpose of jean claude van damme doing splits between volvo trucks? Pretty much the same. Given that Volvo is one of the more well-known unknown brands in the world, I guess they feel that they need the attention?

I would agree if it was a young Jean Reno, he might be a bit old for the part now. Dennis Haysbert as MM could be a good fit, The Female is a tough call though.

Naaa Jean Reno is the frenchman. The Female (Of The Species) I think would be the hardest to cast...

Dennis Haysbert is MM

They were surprised that jeans didn't provide any protection from a chainsaw?

Keynes and others made the same argument against the Treaty of Versailles. You mentioned how that turned out.

Folks did in fact learn from that mistake, but after everything is said and done, it was the Soviet expansion that made the case. Germany was the frontier and to turn it into some shithole or even a failed state would have made it worthless in the struggle against Soviet expansion. Germany was expected to a) keep them in check, and b) serve as a prime example of how much better life is within the realm of capitalism. If it hadn't been for T-34s in Berlin, I'm not entirely sure we would have been treated as favourably as we were.

In any case, even after much of the debt was written off, the remaining payments were stretched out over decades, so as to not be too much of a drain on the economic development of the country.

Still, it's not the same with Greece. We only torched half the continent, but they dodged their taxes. That's a million times worse, it seems.

While we're on the subject of tax evasion: Luxembourg alone accounts for about €20b-€30b a year of lost tax revenue in Germany. Yap, the tax system implemented by none other than troika member Jean-Claude Juncker is more of a drain on the public budget in Germany than Greece could ever be.
