Man bedenke nur die regelmässigen "Dokusoaps" auf RTL und Konsorten *schauder*

Germans are smart yes, but its the youth thats fucked up. Many many German teens have bad education or don't care about education at all, and many teen girls are pregnant early, leaving them with a kid at 16 and without her man, which results in she not having a job and needing unemployment benefit, which in turn empties the treasury. Vicious circle.

And Bring Mailman back god damnit, he is the Eric Cartman of TPU, it needs him!

Ich schau kein Fernsehen mehr, obwohl ich nen 30 Zoll Grundig Röhrenfernseher hier neben mir habe... Rechner kostet zuviel Zeit

this may be a little simplistic, in reality, it has to do with the reunion of germany. the DDR sucked much liquiditations, that had been rebuilt after the War, away. we currently own the world bank about 3-6 TRILLION Euro,cool eh? :twitch:

But Germany is only a few miles away from me, so I am being bombarded with their problems more.

erocker · Oct 13, 2009

Eric Cartman is the cartoon character modeled after TheMailMan. TheMailMan will return.

MT Alex · Oct 13, 2009

Ah, South Park, hum. Well, I guess I am a failure as far as pop culture is concerned.

Velvet Wafer · Oct 13, 2009

thats pretty serious, if you hang around the interwebz

MT Alex · Oct 13, 2009

That's why I like this place so much. It is the only forum I am involved with, and the first place I have ever "talked" to others who float around on the ephermal of the internet. Never thought I would. My wife chuckles, says I "have cyber buddies." I guess she's right.

Is Eric Cartman the dude who got beat up by a girl?

Kursah · Oct 13, 2009

Yep, Eric Cartman get's his ass whooped by a girl...hilarious episode.

I do gotta say this is a neat thread, definitely with a kickass purpose. I joined this place almost 3 years ago after lurking and reading tons of threads and posts, started overclocking and asking for help, been hooked ever since. I still learn a ton from this place and I hope only to give as much back to this place as I can...the only online community I'm as dedicated to for sure is right here, not even my clan's forum is visited as often (or nearly as entertaining). So thanks W1z for the creation, and thank you everyone else here, both old and new members for making this place worth coming to.

I'd rather drive Nürburgring. Open to the public much of the time, €22 for a single lap, and the price goes down per lap if you buy more than 1 at a time.

WTF, mailman banned, WTF is going on here?

Dammit the stuff i miss when im asleep hopefully hees back soon.

Mussels · Oct 13, 2009

mailman only has a short vacation - thats what he gets for asking for an infraction without specifying details!

Kreij · Oct 13, 2009

Unfortunately we are going to have to put up with the epic crap that MailMan spews out describing the pain, suffering and anguish that he was burdened with , upon his successful return from his ban.

Oh the humanity :laugh:

Triprift · Oct 13, 2009

That sounds brilliant to me epic even
