mircea_popescu: yeah, that numbers bs... it's sad, really.
BingoBoingo: Outnumbered and had the problem on having had the money for liquor,
mircea_popescu: this is how lower class makes friends, neh ? eternal and unmoved, first you cuss each other out, then you duke it out, then you're friends for life.
mircea_popescu: so did they respond to beating in kind ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, sure. But I've met quite a few young abogados estadounidense who went drinking in St Louis and got quite the beating after responding to racial slurs in kind
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i suspect portion of james lafond presents james lafond might be dramatization for the screen.
mircea_popescu: (which is another massive giveaway of "leaked" sex tapes. bitch, that's not how accidental filmed fucking looks like.)
BingoBoingo: In James Lafond presents St Louis, Missouri all the idle young males would have been darker and tried provoking me to action with their racial slurs. Here, idle means idle
mircea_popescu: there's this formative moment in every pornographer's life (or at least, every pornographer worth his salt's life) where he's driving around a partybus fulla naked sluts and tries to pick up jocks from the street to fuck 'em. except... can't. even if they get in, which is a 1:10 shot at best, they can't really get it up ; and if they do it lasts half a minute and happens in the camera-unfriendliest manner possible.
shinohai: Lessee, I've been here almost every day for the past ~3+ years and don't ever recall an extended server outage on irc, yet this alt-irc telegram I'm forced to use with the girls goes down at least twice monthly.

mircea_popescu: not to mention the PORTON!! everywhere. looks like they're preparing for imminent alien invasion, these fellows.
mircea_popescu: and the whole "danger" social discourse very much is an artefact of this.
mircea_popescu: if they know you there they'll come tro you, but self-power exploration is ~nil.
mircea_popescu: and the observation is indeed fine. VERY bus-bound culture in south and central america. between the strange "strong families" where you'll see batshit insanity like 20yo woiman OUT WITH HER MOTHER and, importantly, HIDING IN MOM SKIRTS, and the terrible eg signalling for cars everywhere etc, AND a very land-possessive mentality, most people will simply not go to any new place.
