Mrs. Peel 7,148 Posted December 9, 2018 OK, what's with the Fashionista talk? Sheesh! You boys are starting to worry me... though I LOVE the pic above. Adore him! AND his snappy suit. Back to the topic at hand... their interior minister just reported there were 125,000 protestors across the country, 10,000 in Paris alone. Yikes! That's only a scant percentage of their population, of course (at 65+ M), but still, it's enough people to cause a massive amount of damage to buildings, cars, stores. Worse yet, they've had to shut down tourist attractions, shops, etc. - all during the lead-up to Christmas. Even if they manage to get through this with Macron still in office, my god, they will have taken a financial bath the last several weeks. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

samtechlan 23 Posted December 9, 2018 The Germans should have rioted too when Merkel invited the world in. Good for the French for standing up to Macron. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Budweiser is the absolute symbol of the low quality of American macro beers. The next time you see a television commercial of a Hollywood actor asking for ‘a Bud’, just know that he is just perpetuating the commercialized myth of a masculine American patriot who wants to show his manliness by drinking the piss of all national symbols at once: the American eagle, the mountain lion and the skunk. You have plenty of other much better alternative choices of American craft beers to choose from so go out and enjoy the beverage exploration. Maybe even, (God forbid...), try a foreign brewed beer.... AVB-AMG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
