Don’t make Sir Creep angry. He’s typically extremely patient (lmao) as you can see. This one was more on me for not seeking out an opera thread. Do wish to say that though I may be new to the Deathlist, my online trail for obit postings goes back a good 18 years to Google Groups / deja news / usenet / whatever you want to call it. But, yes, must learn threads and continue to look in search engine to find most appropriate one for each obit. Got it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So we wanted Trump instead of her, that's the reason, even if it is also a bad choice. Hope America get better president in 2020 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,970 Posted June 19, 2018 It's funny how things change. Bill Clinton and Boris Yeltzin were best buddies, and who knows, maybe Boris and Hillary had a glass (or two, or three) of Wodka together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They're Mexican, fuck all to do with you, so don't put fucking shite like that up as an argument. Several countries subject to american influence may agree. Puerto Rico, much as they want inclusion to being a proper state, are fucked as per recent posts by Yankee liberals on here. Should still be with Spain IMO, not as right wing cunts oppressing them. Clinton / Obama etc might be 'leftie' to the yanks on here, but they are Nazi bastards to most of the Wurlt. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
