    No. Done it before.

    Anyway, when Turkey finally enters the EU we may finally get some new laws for the equal treatment of muslims that are sorely needed in countries like the UK, France and the Netherlands.

    Hah! I am unshakable in my pompous arrogance! No amount of weird looks and painful silence will ever convince me I am not hysterical.

    Indeed. And more secularism! And doner kebabs!

    However, I, for one, do not intent to share the wealth with Turkey. Sorry Husar, but I think sharing is for naive internationalists. It is not what Europe is about, how our capitalist union works. We are not going to share with Turkey.
    Instead, we will continue to shamelessly milk Germany and the UK for our own financial gain, thank you very much.

    Louis, this is descending into spamming.

    Overall Germany is making some nice trade profits, at least it was last time I looked at wikipedia.
    If we make poor Louis a bit richer in the process I have nothing against it.
    I already said I buy from the UK so basically I'm sharing our wealth with them as well.
    I'm sure you've stopped watching youtube videos because that means sharing your wealth with the US, I wonder where the .org host is located since you're probably financing them as well with your visits.

    Nah, spamming is single smiley posts. This is turning this place into a riot. The thread is three weeks old, I don't think we'll see any hefty posts discussing the financial merits of euro membership anymore. Consider my gibbering nonsense the equivalent of debators having a few drinks after a debate to laugh it all off and to mock the heavyhanded seriousness of earlier that night.


    Let me buy you a pint! We'll drink to Britain! To this precious stone set in the silver sea! This other eden, this demi-paradise!

    To your sceptred Isle!

    It seems we have a statistical tie!

    never fear! grizzly has a plan, we ship out a few anti eu residents... temporarily of course... so boot out Apache (visit the dad in greece) and frunculu (i hear spain's nice this time of year) and ship in a few of the euros... not the evil manaic's though... and then... EURO FTW!!

    Louis you are hysterical, and ill drink to that!
    In remembrance of our great Admin Tosa Inu, A tireless worker with the patience of a saint. As long as I live I will not forget you. Thank you for everything!
