Alexis Tsipras' "open letter" to German citizens

Discussion in 'Economics' started by Tsing Tao, Jan 29, 2015.

  1. By the way, given your propensity to edit your posts, I really should make it a point to quote them from now on. The original had no mention of Paxman, Thatcher, Obama or Bush.

    My, what a rush of afterthoughts

  2. What makes you think I need to be humoured? I made a simple observation about what you and Berlusconi said, with a very common theme I must say. Beyond that?

  3. My last comment to you unless you start adding value to the thread topic under discussion: Ease up and take it easy ...it's weekend mate. Don't get riled up about Jews or jokes. You can call Germans or Merkel anything you please ...I have no issues with that... I simply rest assured I am on the right side of facts when the history books are opened in 100 years and people laugh about historic clowns on one side and marvel at brilliant statesmen and women on the other hand.

    So you also have something to laugh over the weekend: possibly one of the best pieces of comedy by Robin Williams taking the piss out of Bush and Obama:

  4. Ah, so it was a joke about the wife of the FM prostituting herself to pay off the debts of the state. I didn't see the humour I'm sorry to say. Then again I've struggled to see how your endless vitriol has added value to the topic under discussion. If you will permit me to, I shall go away and think about it, as the Japanese say.

  5. The funny thing is I was never even addressing you. I replied intentionally to LuisHK. Watch the youtube video I linked to, its quite funny.

  6. Of course you weren't addressing me.

    Just like Luis never mentioned Paxman.

    Don't have time for silly videos, sorry.

  7. But time to post anonymously and address other anonymous users on an Internet board? lol

    Have a nice Sunday mate!

  8. Yes, replying to idiots takes much less time.

    I did ask you very nicely to let me go away and think about it, but you seem incapable of doing so. Real pity that, because as you wish me to, I'd really like to enjoy what's left of my weekend.

    No rest for the wicked it seems.

  9. Leave in peace, nobody but your own ego and arrogance is holding you back. :):):)

  10. I came in peace. Faced with arrogance and slippery behaviour, I felt compelled to stay in order to maintain some semblance of integrity here.

    I have the screenshots (iPads are wonderful with this), but remind us all again why you claimed you were not responding to me, but Luis, when in fact you mentioned Paxman. I'm pretty sure he's reading this and can only agree that he did not mention Paxman.

    Please look up The First Law of Holes. I am perfectly willing to stop right now. No hard feelings, you're a splendid chap, but as I did not start this, you need to be the one to stop it. Now stop for a moment, consider what you said about an uninvolved lady, consider your ego, and if you still can, then please once again I ask you nicely to let it go. It's easy. Just no more responses, can you do that or is it too much for the ego to bear?
