That's more or less around the corner from where I live, and across the street from where I work. It's so vulgar, and it does little to improve the already bad reputation of Amsterdam. I sometimes see tourists gazing at it, shocked by this into-your-face rudeness. There is a weather forecast that Holland will soon be submerged by the North Sea (more...); perhaps that is a solution.


Re: One month in RAT... - MARCvSVIBIvSMAvRINvS - 11-16-2007

Vulgar? and you think Rome was not vulgar? never read juvenalis? or martialis?

personally i think it is a wise advice, since if you do wee into the wind.......

the consequences are and will remain..... yours......

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Here is their website. It's not the worst local beer. I can not believe we forgot to offer it to you during your stay in Nijmegen.

But that's not a reason why we should be vulgar as well.


One Month in RAT - Paullus Scipio - 11-17-2007

.....personally, I think "Never p**s to Windward" is sound advice that many more should heed, even if it is vulgar.....

......Ho,Ho, Ho !
Marcus, I dare say you have probably managed to offend about half the RAT membership with your forthright views, not to mention 'sail close to the wind' with the rules about modern politics, so you may get a well deserved 'spank' from a Moderator! Sad cry:

Here in Oz, we call that 'having a rant', or better yet 'spitting the dummy' ( as in child spitting out dummy/pacifier).......which is usually a good thing, and makes one feel better ! :wink: :wink:

" Breezer Sluts?" :lol: :lol: :lol: .....that's a good one, hadn't heard the expression before! :lol:
Has it occurred to you that the equivalent of 'Breezer sluts' existed in Roman times, along with child slavery and a whole host of other evils?

Be careful what you wish for........ :evil: :twisted:


Re: One month in RAT... - MARCvSVIBIvSMAvRINvS - 11-17-2007

hahahahaha at least you know some of my my views now!

LOL

:lol:

and offending........... people.................. as a misantrope i do not mind at all......

as a forum member, well since freedom of expression is found to be insulting
even though it is merely to kick start any debate, in this case about vulgarity...

i have edited my post...... but i loved the rant!

PS why is slavery so bad? (HAHAHAHAHAHA here we go again)

but indeed the thing in our society which is getting out of hand also thanks to the media is the sexualisation and commercialisation of present day society. that is a very worrysome thing......

which makes young kids think it is normal to do certain unspeakable things to get things done for them......... which of course it ISNT !!!!

and of course in Roman society you were married age 14, and ended your political career age 35/40......... so their time frame was of course totally different....... but morality was kept at a high standard by many..... so yes it happened, but on a giant scale? i dont know.....

and what i wish for........ ah well for a start 35 fully armed legions.... to make one heroic last stand on the plains of megiddo fighting for our gods and Roman Culture!

LOL

M.VIB.M.

BTW: wasnt Ho Ho Ho outlawed in OZ recently? and what is the state of the yellow brick road?


Re: One month in RAT... - Iagoba - 11-17-2007
