This has come up before. Considering OOP grew up in France, she may in fact be qualified to diagnose her proficiency in the language.

Oh please feel free to tell me how I’m wrong about things happening in my country, jackass.

You still fail to show how Buddhists in particular support child rape or even child marriage. From what I know of Buddhism, which is admittedly not that much, that religion says nothing of child marriage.

I’m gonna take a wild guess that you equate Buddhism to India, which is the region most widely known in the West for arranged marriages (outside of Muslim countries, at least). Well guess what, firstly, 0.7% of Indians are Buddhists. Secondly, the Hindu Marriage Act of 1955 prohibits brides under eighteen years of age from marrying, unless they’s fifteen and has parental consent — which is pretty much the same as is typical in the West. This act applies explicitly to all religions except Muslims, Christians, Parsis, and Jews.

Well teach him better then!

Who’s ‘they’? And what does arranged marriage have to do with child rape?

Could you reread your own comment and tell me who ‘they’ are, according to your grammar, and what their beliefs are? Namely, are ‘they’ the arranged brides who do in fact support arranged marriage?

Yall should switch for good once all the old fucks die.

Please demonstrate how Buddhism supports child rape.

My bet is that Trump wouldn’t be able to read a single Bible verse off a teleprompter, much less from memory.

I’m pretty sure that compared to the US, the only relevant social program we have is cops chasing homeless people out of sight, as opposed to letting them hang out wherever.

Aside from universal healthcare, of course.

Yeah, I’ve lumped them together in my mind, because subway is typically not called ‘train’ in my language. But the situation is about the same. Just looked it up: a subway car here has the ‘full capacity’ of over 300 people, commuter cars around the same, but probably less in practice. And the numbers sure push toward that during rush hour.

Explain then how it is that there are no dirty smelly masturbating crazies on buses and subways in my country.

Crazies hang out doing crazy stuff in spaces that are conducive to such behavior. If normal people ride public transport because it’s expected that public transport accommodates normal people, then crazy behavior isn’t tolerated on public transport.

Oh suuuure. Except maybe you haven’t noticed, but I can read English, and peruse US-dominated social media. In the threads on mass transit it’s always “truly these are complex and multifaceted problems”, and then outside that thread it’s “I had to use subway today with all the masturbating weirdos like a peasant”.

That always sounded to me like a chicken-egg problem. People don’t use buses and subways, because buses and subways are populated by weird dirty hobos. Well guess what…

Buses seem to be shafted in that comparison by the fact that no one uses them in the US. Where I am, a bus gets just seven passengers only in the middle of the night. At other times, buses would be easily at the top of the table if not for the fact that our trains also move more than twenty people per car.

No, what happened is that the COVID pandemic coincided with a pandemic of stupidity, and you weren’t immune to either of them.

Eh, idk how it is with series, but <7 for films means not worth the time (excepting special circumstances), and 7 to 8 is okay to good.

Afaik Tineye hasn’t been updated in years. Both Google and Yandex find a bunch of images, including an image with a different background and darker-skinned Aladdin with his jacket still on, but striking the same pose.

“Are you uncomfortable with eye contact?”

I mean, judge for yourself:

• Marusha’s ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’

• DJ Paul Elstak’s ‘Luv U More’

• Technohead’s ‘I Wanna Be a Hippy (Flamman & Abraxas Radio Mix)’

• Blümchen’s ‘Kleiner Satellit (Piep, Piep)’ or ‘Bicycle Race’

Although, on a further relisten, I have to admit horsegiirL’s track blends happy-hardcore with hard-techno, most of all. But hard-house is its own beast for the most part.

*early-mid nineties’ happy-hardcore, which is closer to techno rather than house.
