I heard about this about a year ago, I'm surprised they're REALLY doing it

paying for sex is for pussies

"to be fair, i have read a few funny things on [the org] and there are people pointing out good new music but very often i've clicked on the address and a hologram of a turd came steaming out of the computer. if, as the name of the site implies, i somehow caused that, then i get down on my knees and pray for forgiveness to the gods."

Amsterdam is a sad, sad mess. Cracking down on some of the druggies and sex shops would definitely do it some good.

What the fuck do you know about Amsterdam, Dentist? Did you visit on some sad european vacation and get ripped off while you were trying to pay a prostitute to let you shout your weird opinions at her instead of having sex? People like you need that outlet - don't be ashamed, embrace your impotence.

Listen, Dentist, he is not interested. He is not the prostitute you shout your weird opinions at in Amsterdam. He doesnt care because unlike the prostitutes you insult, you are not paying him to tolerate you. Try to make the distinctions in future or simply try to reassess your own behaviour towards people.

are you talking about his prostitutes or his wife now? i'm confused.

You're confused? Judging from your peculiar and confused comment you are one of those tedious individuals that have made some bizarre rule for yourself about 'not seeing prostitutes after I am married". I have no interest in whether he is married or not nor in your weird code of behaviour that you throw in people's faces on message boards.

I'm fine with prostitution being legal. I'm fine with drugs being legal. I'm not fine with ALL OF THE TRASH IN FUCKING EUROPE flocking to Amsterdam and ruining it. I trust since you live in a nearby former Nazi country (France) that you have been to Amsterdam yourself. You know exactly what I mean about Amsterdam. It could be amazing, but it's not -- not because of the Dutch, but because of the European human shit -- a lot of it from your country -- that inhabits the city.

In fact, if I'm not mistaken, part of the drugs crackdown started when some stupid French bitch got high on shrooms and jumped off of that big warehouse building near the train station, thinking she could fly. Didn't quite work out for her.

I'm not really up on my history, but if one were to consider this statement true, wouldn't it at least be fair to mention that France didn't CHOOSE that? That it was kinda, like... militarily forced?

Truth be had, I'd be pretty scared to go anywhere in europe, save maybe Ireland or Scottland or Italy or something... everywhere else, I'd be afraid that if people found out I was an American, they would charge me higher prices, talk shit about me right in front of me in their native tongue, and/or I'd be stabbed for my wristwatch while taking public transpo. This goes especially for Amsterdam

"You stupid French bitch" "You European human shit" Is this what you shout at the prostitutes you visit, Dentist? If France was formerly occupied by Nazis, this is currently preferable to your being possessed by the opinions and personability of a concentration camp guard. As I have already pointed out, the prostitutes you visit are paid to tolerate you exorcising your Nazi fantasy but other people find it less than rewarding.

As for Kenobi and your facile iawtp - that makes you a collaborator. Its not Europe's fault if you walked around on your sad european trek with a vacant expression, too much ignorance to know any other language or history and lank greasy hair. Why would anyone european want to talk to you?

If what you said was true, yes, absolutely. Unfortunately, when the German Army took over the north, the rest of France voted in a pro-Nazi government (Vichy France) that was essentially allowed to control the entire country, including the part occupied by the Germans in the north. The Vichy government helped round up Jews and send them to their deaths and collaborated fully with the Nazis. Instead of fighting the Germans for the rest of the country, they became Nazis. How courageous. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vichy_France

And to your point about being afraid of traveling, don't be. As long as you attempt to speak even a little of their language and be polite, people won't give a shit -- even if you are American. Foreigners (usually) hate George W Bush, not American people. I've been treated much worse in NYC than, say, Turkey or Italy or Sweden.

Dentist, its no use pretending that you were a welcome guest in europe or that its just george bush that is disliked. In case you hadn't noticed your country is now the new france. The reason for this is partly the kind of ignorant, careless, irresponsible, wasteful, aggressive behaviour that you display. Its no use whining about france or even amsterdam anymore, its way past that as a distraction to make yourself feel better. Your country is about to get the biggest economic wake up call of the last hundred years and insulting other people sadly wont help you. The least you can do in the mean time is learn some basic manners yourself rather than trying to teach them after the fact.

Why would anyone european want to talk to you?

Well to begin with, I was travelling with my father, who speaks six languages (French, Danish, Japanese, English, Italian and Spanish.. I myself speak basic Italian, Danish and Spanish, as well as fluent and advanced English).

And in terms of a "vacant expression"... Well, I'm not sure how the look on my face can determine how one is treated, unless there's some kind of scowl involve. I suppose you could have used the term as a blanket expression for being close-minded and/or not open to new experiences, but since you don't know me and I've barely weighed into this discussion, it seems the height of hilarity to me that you'd even begin to try and pore through my European experience which was, by the way, primarily excellent. My experiences in Amsterdam, however, were not great. Not because the locals weren't brilliant, and certainly because I'm not cool with their lifestyle choices (ie, legalised drug use, open sexuality and a legalised sex trade, etc), but because I was poorly treated by other European's who were there to "blow off steam". Once situation inparticular involves several French men pinning me up against a wall outside a restaurant until my father had to physically intervene.

And finally...

Why would anyone european want to talk to you?

Uh, because I talked to them. I engaged them. I made an effort to speak the language, to observe cultural differences, and to remain polite. But apparently that doesn't change assholes attempting to rape you in the street, man.
