I follow some foreigners that had to come to America for work and were scared because the news makes it out to be such a bad place. Well they loved it and come back regularly and travel all around and say it's safer and people are kinder than anywhere they have been and mad that the news has lied to them. They want to move here soon. Honestly except for a few cities we all know, it really is the best place to live. That's why so many people want to come here. More people actually move to Florida per day than anywhere in the world.

Pretty much everywhere I’ve ever travelled too has been different to the image that has been been portrayed by the media.

I went to Romania at the end of last year and it was genuinely a fantastic and safe place to visit.

Brings to mind a word I use here to describe more than a few... dupe.

 

Out in the real America, we're all getting along just fine, and kicking ass.

what's that saying, the grass is greener?

i think people expect perfection in their lives and when they don't get it they act like spoiled entitled brats. i've noticed a lot of victim mentality recently.

I don’t remember them being particularly bad.

Still a very poor country but they got fucked over hard by the communists.

I asked because I believe it was Top Gear that drove one of the most AWESOME “Mountain GT” roads on the planet…

And…I believe it was in Romania…?

It’s the kind of road I’d really, really, really love to ride in a very nicely prepped RD350LC or…see below….(I like small displacement screamers that reward all the senses…)

It's so funny that you think everyone who disagrees with you is brainwashed and "duped" but you can't look in the mirror and see that you are just the same for the Team you cheer for.

Look in the mirror little Joe Joe, you ain't better or smarter than anyone, you're just another braindead sheep that blindly follows Trump like a good little minion and thinks you have some sort of superiority over everyone.  I have NEVER seen you make a single fucking intelligent argument to defend your case, you just talk shit and spew the weak ass talking points that Trump tells you to.

For someone who pretends to be so fucking smart, you look pretty dumb to anyone with even a smidge of common sense.

With all due respect of course.....

Was that necessary?  I certainly don’t agree with JB’s approach to a lot of things, but your post signals something beyond just a disagreement. If you want things to calm down, start by not taking anonymous internet rants so seriously.

Is it really necessary for him to shit on anyone who doesn't agree with him in every single political thread?

Dude thinks he's the smartest fucker to grace the internet and that anyone who doesn't agree with him is somehow inferior....not only is it exhausting but it's pathetic and people like him are killing America.

I can promise everyone that the name-calling/crappy “team” or “cult” insults/auto-rage-engage methods will soften and lighten up…or the membership will.

That’s been made very clear, to me.

We all need to “lighten the fuck up”.

Yes, I get it: look who’s trying to get us all to “get along”. It’s not lost on me. But, it’s time to…

“Lighten the fuck up.”

Michael seems to be done fucking around.

Chill LB, politicians and their followers are a different breed. You ain't gonna change them. Go outside and look at nature. It heals.

I just like to point out to them that they are blind and their opinion isn't the only correct opinion.

They don't like it and won't EVER admit it, but they know I'm right.

I have a lot more respect for folks who can think for themselves and have the humility to admit that they are wrong once in awhile.  Joe Joe and a few others here don't fall into that category.

In the interest of being better though.... I'll chill and let the blind sheep go about being blind sheep and think they are better than everyone.  Those of us with common sense can just sit back and laugh at them.

Yet you NEVER back up what you say, ever.  You're just a media dupe for the right wingers throwing out lame ass boomer insults and memes to anyone that hurts your fragile fucking ego by disagreeing with you.

Quit thinking you're better than them, you ain't.

Now that you mention it the roads in the Carpathian Mountains were pretty good, and being where they are geographically the weather is excellent.

There were quite a few sports bikes flying around in Bucharest, mostly fireblades. Who knew Romanians loved fireblades so much?

But yeah, my choice would be a supersport like my 636. Screaming the bollocks of an inline 4 is just fantastic.

I can afford dirt bikes, mountain bikes, trucks and have retirement plans. So no, America is not treating me bad! The politicians that want elected are trying to make me think it is.

Hopefully you can buy one of those nice looking bikes from 2024, because the tariffs will make them 25% more expensive. The tariffs will make all Japanese bikes +25%.

NOTE To the person who deleted his post, believing the Japanese would be paying: The Japanese won't eat the tariffs, your importers will. Yamaha USA, Kawasaki USA, ... are all going to pay 25% tax to the American customs. This will make your bike more expensive, your government richer and on the back side because of the fact that teams are getting their money from Yamaha USA, Kawasaki USA, Honda USA, ... the chances are that we will see less factory bikes on the gate or that they choose to delete tons of contingency programs to keep the prices 'decent' for dirtbikes and endurobikes.

The Japanese will probably say something like: "楽しもう、税金", what would mean "Let it be enjoyed, those taxes"

You complain about someone else thinking they're the "smartest fucker to grace the internet", using that kind of language? I don't know how intelligent he may or may not be, but your choice of terms to express yourself speaks volumes about you.

The guy runs around here acting like some vital e-bully.

Not a huge claim to fame.

But hey, I guess that makes him feel like someone. 🤔

He was also shitposting for a while, (before getting put in time out) saying guys only went to SX races to ogle the monster enegry girls, then go home and rub one off, thinking about them.

Gotta laugh at someone like that. 

 

He was one of two on this board, early on, I learned to kick to the curb, and ignore.
