    Brexit Wtf!

    Wasn't it a major issue in the independence vote that it wasn't clear/was unlikely that Scotland would be automatically part of the EU (which they wanted) if they vote independent? Assuming a lot of people wouldn't want to take that risk and also assuming that the EU will likely be welcoming if...

    Brexit Wtf!

    Unfortunately, this is a trend we see not only in Britain, but in a lot of countries worldwide: populists gain momentum with their simple rhetoric, blaming all the faults on certain groups and appealing to national pride. People just love the 'easy answers' like "Use 350M per week for the NHS...

    Usa Insults Usa

    My favorite moment of the game was actually the post-game analysis (I watched a US stream), when a reporter asked Klinsmann when the US team would be on the same level as Argentina :D

    Just like most mass killings/school shootings are carried out by lunatics who can legally buy their assault rifle and go hunting people...

    Another Mass Shooting In The Us...

    To my knowledge, his motivations for the attack are still unclear to this point, but there's no evidence so far, that the attack was planned/organized by a terrorist group. It's not even clear whether he was just a mentally disturbed person who just claimed to be ISIS or if this was his true...

    Another Mass Shooting In The Us...

    Your post is wrong on so many levels... The NRA didn't do this, folks. Captain Obvious! No one claimed that the NRA did this. But they sure have a role in it in terms of making sure that anyone can buy an assault rifle. If Alice has a kid and send it to uncle Bob - a known pedophile - over...

    In Chile, Wal-Mart Adapts To Local Tastes To Reach The Top.

    It should be noted though that the reason Walmart failed in Germany was not the lack of bread... Walmart just didn't offer anything significantly different from the existing supermarkets and was more expensive. They just came into a saturated market they didn't understand and hoped it will work...

    How Cold Is Cold ??

    In the apartment I lived before, they also had central heating w/o individual temperature controls. I probably will never understand who can come up with such a dumb idea... As if everyone has the same preferred temperature for all rooms. Ended up like in your case: some people complained about...

    It's Too Expensive Here!

    So if I understand it correctly, they recalculated the index with a salary adjustment that is due in half a year from now, while taking big mac prices from the past - the author just qualified for a top position at INDEC...

    Neighborhoods With Good Internet

    The most reliable action to get a stable internet is to cross the border ;) There is no 1:1 relationship between neighborhood and connection quality, it depends on a ton of factors (internet package, modem, connection to the building, how many clients are connected to the endpoint, ...). Your...
