-Can you confirm this bag is original, stollen from Luis Vitton boutique, not some fake immitation ?
-Madam, please, do I look like a crook?
Something that I wrote about
( and much more) in my EU regulators complaint.
It is taken seriously, I know, might expect some official news already this year.
A must watch, glad someone else dares to confront @chesscom and make it public, there are many things to investigate.
Justice will prevail

Seemingly judging people by their national origin isn't anymore shamefull and undecent.
Frankly, have missed that special moment of time in history, when it became socially acceptable.
I would rather keep retrograde values, if you allow.
Though we had some harsh lesson about a century ago in this regard.
It's a complete disgrace, to judge / group people in this terms, whatever nationality they belong to.
It was and it is
As someone who has lived in Europe for more than twenty years, I’ve noticed one major conceptual mentality problem with administrative systems at every level.
It is the systematic avoidance of real decision making.
I see it everywhere it can apply: in politics, in the justice system, and in state / regional administration, etc.
The first instinct of the average European state employee is to make everything in his power to avoid taking any decision until they are absolutely forced to.
The amount of time and energy spent to succeed in these efforts is usually three times what it would have taken simply to make a decision and move forward.
This is what often drives me mad: the deliberate, and clearly counterproductive, imitation of action.
Endless excuses, circular discussions, pseudoreflections, references to point 231.a.1(m) of some regulation that supposedly prevents the application of Article 215.b.5(t).
It is an immitation of performance with no real intention of moving forward.
Politics is no different. The consequences are increasingly visible: everyone tries to sit on two or more chairs at once and hopes the problem will somehow dissolve on its own.
Like children, really
Remember this advertisement from ninetees? Just do it.
Whatever you believe is the right course, take it. People make mistakes—that’s fine.
But stop pretending before it's late. And stop stopping those who want to move forward quicker and do something.
Just f... do it !
This piece of architecture is very familiar to me personally, since my parents-in-law live only a hundred metres from it. It has always been a pleasure to pass by this beautiful place, which reminds one of the glory and heritage of the nation.
Together with my whole family, I am devastated to see this, and what France in particular and Europe in general have become.
I have no idea how the problems should be solved, but certainly not by endless hypocrisy and public lies. It is time to save the great European civilisation — if that is still possible

Absolute savages…
The historic town hall in Limoges, France is gone. The steeple just collapsed.
Anyone, it is going to be some opera performance or balet? If second, where they sell tickets, I am in
For your understanding concerning cheating scale in pocker those times.
Notably, most of scam fraud revealed after players concrete actions, not by platforms of course.
Pocker players had more courage, dignity and self respect in compare to some others, it appears to me
